Edad desde la fecha de nacimiento en python

¿Cómo puedo encontrar una edad en Python desde la fecha de hoy y la fecha de nacimiento de una persona? La fecha de nacimiento es de un DateField en un modelo Django.

Eso se puede hacer mucho más simple considerando que int (True) es 1 e int (False) es 0:

from datetime import date

def calculate_age(born):
    today = date.today()
    return today.year - born.year - ((today.month, today.day) < (born.month, born.day))

from datetime import date

def calculate_age(born):
    today = date.today()
    try: 
        birthday = born.replace(year=today.year)
    except ValueError: # raised when birth date is February 29 and the current year is not a leap year
        birthday = born.replace(year=today.year, month=born.month+1, day=1)
    if birthday > today:
        return today.year - born.year - 1
    else:
        return today.year - born.year

Actualización: use la solución de Danny , es mejor

from datetime import date

days_in_year = 365.2425    
age = int((date.today() - birth_date).days / days_in_year)

En Python 3, puede realizar la división en datetime.timedelta:

from datetime import date, timedelta

age = (date.today() - birth_date) // timedelta(days=365.2425)

Según lo sugerido por @ [Tomasz Zielinski] y @Williams python-dateutil pueden hacerlo solo 5 líneas.

from dateutil.relativedelta import *
from datetime import date
today = date.today()
dob = date(1982, 7, 5)
age = relativedelta(today, dob)

>>relativedelta(years=+33, months=+11, days=+16)`

La forma más simple es usar python-dateutil

import datetime

import dateutil

def birthday(date):
    # Get the current date
    now = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
    now = now.date()

    # Get the difference between the current date and the birthday
    age = dateutil.relativedelta.relativedelta(now, date)
    age = age.years

    return age

from datetime import date

def age(birth_date):
    today = date.today()
    y = today.year - birth_date.year
    if today.month < birth_date.month or today.month == birth_date.month and today.day < birth_date.day:
        y -= 1
    return y

Desafortunadamente, no puede simplemente usar timedelata ya que la unidad más grande que usa es el día y los años bisiestos harán que sus cálculos no sean válidos. Por lo tanto, busquemos el número de años y luego ajustemos por uno si el último año no está lleno:

from datetime import date
birth_date = date(1980, 5, 26)
years = date.today().year - birth_date.year
if (datetime.now() - birth_date.replace(year=datetime.now().year)).days >= 0:
    age = years
else:
    age = years - 1

Upd:

Esta solución realmente causa una excepción cuando entra en juego el 29 de febrero. Aquí está la verificación correcta:

from datetime import date
birth_date = date(1980, 5, 26)
today = date.today()
years = today.year - birth_date.year
if all((x >= y) for x,y in zip(today.timetuple(), birth_date.timetuple()):
   age = years
else:
   age = years - 1

Upd2:

Llamar varias llamadas a now()un éxito en el rendimiento es ridículo, no importa en todos, sino en casos extremadamente especiales. La verdadera razón para usar una variable es el riesgo de incosistencia de datos.

El clásico truco en este escenario es qué hacer con las personas nacidas el 29 de febrero. Ejemplo: debe tener 18 años para votar, conducir un automóvil, comprar alcohol, etc. Si nace el 29/02/2004, ¿cuál es el primer día en que se le permite hacer estas cosas? 2022-02 -28 o 2022-03-01? AFAICT, principalmente el primero, pero algunos killjoys podrían decir el último.

Aquí hay un código que atiende al 0.068% (aprox.) De la población nacida ese día:

def age_in_years(from_date, to_date, leap_day_anniversary_Feb28=True):
    age = to_date.year - from_date.year
    try:
        anniversary = from_date.replace(year=to_date.year)
    except ValueError:
        assert from_date.day == 29 and from_date.month == 2
        if leap_day_anniversary_Feb28:
            anniversary = datetime.date(to_date.year, 2, 28)
        else:
            anniversary = datetime.date(to_date.year, 3, 1)
    if to_date < anniversary:
        age -= 1
    return age

Si está buscando imprimir esto en una página usando plantillas de django, entonces lo siguiente podría ser suficiente:

{{ birth_date|timesince }}

Aquí hay una solución para encontrar la edad de una persona, ya sea en años, meses o días.

Digamos que la fecha de nacimiento de una persona es 2012-01-17T00: 00: 00 Por lo tanto, su edad en 2013-01-16T00: 00: 00 será 11 meses

o si nació el 2012-12-17T00: 00: 00 , su edad el 2013-01-12T00: 00: 00 será 26 días

o si nació el 2000-02-29T00: 00: 00 , su edad el 2012-02-29T00: 00: 00 será 12 años

Deberá importar fecha y hora .

Aquí está el código:

Algunas funciones adicionales utilizadas en los códigos anteriores son:

def get_todays_date():
    """
    This function returns todays date in proper date object format
    """
    return datetime.now()

Y

def get_date_format(str_date):
"""
This function converts string into date type object
"""
str_date = str_date.split("T")[0]
return datetime.strptime(str_date, "%Y-%m-%d")

Ahora, tenemos que alimentar get_date_format () con las cadenas como 2000-02-29T00: 00: 00

Lo convertirá en el objeto de tipo de fecha que se alimentará a get_person_age (date_birth, date_today) .

La función get_person_age (date_birth, date_today) devolverá la edad en formato de cadena.

Ampliando la solución de Danny , pero con todo tipo de formas de informar edades para personas más jóvenes (nota, hoy es datetime.date(2015,7,17)):

Código de muestra:

print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(1933,6,12)) # >=80 years
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(1963,6,12)) # >=12 years
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2010,6,19)) # >=2 years
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2010,11,19)) # >=2 years with half
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2014,11,19)) # >=6 months
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2015,6,4)) # >=2 weeks
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2015,7,11)) # days old

80 years or older
52 years
5 years
4 and a half years
7 months
6 weeks
7 days

Como no vi la implementación correcta, recodifiqué la mía de esta manera ...

    def age_in_years(from_date, to_date=datetime.date.today()):
  if (DEBUG):
    logger.debug("def age_in_years(from_date='%s', to_date='%s')" % (from_date, to_date))

  if (from_date>to_date): # swap when the lower bound is not the lower bound
    logger.debug('Swapping dates ...')
    tmp = from_date
    from_date = to_date
    to_date = tmp

  age_delta = to_date.year - from_date.year
  month_delta = to_date.month - from_date.month
  day_delta = to_date.day - from_date.day

  if (DEBUG):
    logger.debug("Delta's are : %i  / %i / %i " % (age_delta, month_delta, day_delta))

  if (month_delta>0  or (month_delta==0 and day_delta>=0)): 
    return age_delta 

  return (age_delta-1)

La suposición de ser "18" el 28 de febrero cuando nació el 29 es simplemente errónea. Intercambiar los límites se puede omitir ... es solo una conveniencia personal para mi código :)
