Examples

Example #1 DatePeriod example

<?php
$start = new DateTime('2012-07-01');
$interval = new DateInterval('P7D');
$end = new DateTime('2012-07-31');
$recurrences = 4;
$iso = 'R4/2012-07-01T00:00:00Z/P7D';

// All of these periods are equivalent.
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $recurrences);
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end);
$period = new DatePeriod($iso);

// By iterating over the DatePeriod object, all of the
// recurring dates within that period are printed.
foreach ($period as $date) {
    echo $date->format('Y-m-d')."\n";
}
?>

The above example will output:

2012-07-01
2012-07-08
2012-07-15
2012-07-22
2012-07-29

Example #2 DatePeriod example with DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE

<?php
$start = new DateTime('2012-07-01');
$interval = new DateInterval('P7D');
$end = new DateTime('2012-07-31');

$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end,
                         DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE);

// By iterating over the DatePeriod object, all of the
// recurring dates within that period are printed.
// Note that, in this case, 2012-07-01 is not printed.
foreach ($period as $date) {
    echo $date->format('Y-m-d')."\n";
}
?>

The above example will output:

2012-07-08
2012-07-15
2012-07-22
2012-07-29

Notes

Unbound numbers of repetitions as specified by ISO 8601 section 4.5 "Recurring time interval" are not supported, i.e. neither passing "R/..." as isostr nor passing NULL as end would work.
