从这个答案中，请参见parsedatetime。下面是代码示例。更多细节:使用许多自然语言-> YYYY-MM-DD转换示例进行单元测试，以及明显的parsedatetime转换挑战/bug。

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import time, calendar
from datetime import date

# from https://github.com/bear/parsedatetime
import parsedatetime as pdt

def print_todays_date():
    todays_day_of_week = calendar.day_name[date.today().weekday()]
    print "today's date = " + todays_day_of_week + ', ' + \
                              time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')

def convert_date(natural_language_date):
    cal = pdt.Calendar()
    (struct_time_date, success) = cal.parse(natural_language_date)
    if success:
        formal_date = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d', struct_time_date)
    else:
        formal_date = '(conversion failed)'
    print '{0:12s} -> {1:10s}'.format(natural_language_date, formal_date)

print_todays_date()
convert_date('6 months')

上面的代码从MacOSX机器生成以下内容:

$ ./parsedatetime_simple.py 
today's date = Wednesday, 2015-05-13
6 months     -> 2015-11-13
$ 

我使用这个函数来更改年和月，但保留日:

def replace_month_year(date1, year2, month2):
    try:
        date2 = date1.replace(month = month2, year = year2)
    except:
        date2 = datetime.date(year2, month2 + 1, 1) - datetime.timedelta(days=1)
    return date2

你应该这样写:

new_year = my_date.year + (my_date.month + 6) / 12
new_month = (my_date.month + 6) % 12
new_date = replace_month_year(my_date, new_year, new_month)

这里有一个dateutil的例子。relativedelta，我发现它对于迭代过去一年很有用，每次跳过一个月到现在的日期:

>>> import datetime
>>> from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta
>>> today = datetime.datetime.today()
>>> month_count = 0
>>> while month_count < 12:
...  day = today - relativedelta(months=month_count)
...  print day
...  month_count += 1
...

和其他答案一样，你必须弄清楚你说的“6个月后”到底是什么意思。如果你的意思是“六年后某个月的今天”，那么这个是:

datetime.datetime.now() + relativedelta(months=6)

我们可能应该使用dateutil。relativedelta

然而，出于学术兴趣，我只想补充一点，在我发现它之前，我打算用这个:

亿: 今天代表。年度+ (K .今日month + 6) / 12 / (K . today . 12 month + 5%) + 1, K .今日day)。 except: 今天代表。年+ (K.today.month+6)//12 (K.today.month+6)%12+1, 1) -时间轴(天= 1)

它看起来很简单，但仍然可以捕捉到所有的问题，如29、30、31

它也适用于- 6 MTHS通过执行-timedelta

别被k弄糊涂了，今天它只是我程序中的一个变量

按月开始计算:

from datetime import timedelta
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

end_date = start_date + relativedelta(months=delta_period) + timedelta(days=-delta_period)

我认为这样做会比手动添加天数更安全:

import datetime
today = datetime.date.today()

def addMonths(dt, months = 0):
    new_month = months + dt.month
    year_inc = 0
    if new_month>12:
        year_inc +=1
        new_month -=12
    return dt.replace(month = new_month, year = dt.year+year_inc)

newdate = addMonths(today, 6)
