De hecho, necesitaba hacer algo bastante similar en este momento.
Terminé escribiendo una función que devuelve una lista de tuplas que indican el start
y end
de cada mes entre dos conjuntos de fechas para poder escribir algunas consultas SQL en la parte posterior para los totales mensuales de ventas, etc.
Estoy seguro de que puede mejorarlo alguien que sepa lo que está haciendo, pero espero que ayude ...
El valor devuelto se ve de la siguiente manera (generando para hoy - 365 días hasta hoy como ejemplo)
[ (datetime.date(2013, 5, 1), datetime.date(2013, 5, 31)),
(datetime.date(2013, 6, 1), datetime.date(2013, 6, 30)),
(datetime.date(2013, 7, 1), datetime.date(2013, 7, 31)),
(datetime.date(2013, 8, 1), datetime.date(2013, 8, 31)),
(datetime.date(2013, 9, 1), datetime.date(2013, 9, 30)),
(datetime.date(2013, 10, 1), datetime.date(2013, 10, 31)),
(datetime.date(2013, 11, 1), datetime.date(2013, 11, 30)),
(datetime.date(2013, 12, 1), datetime.date(2013, 12, 31)),
(datetime.date(2014, 1, 1), datetime.date(2014, 1, 31)),
(datetime.date(2014, 2, 1), datetime.date(2014, 2, 28)),
(datetime.date(2014, 3, 1), datetime.date(2014, 3, 31)),
(datetime.date(2014, 4, 1), datetime.date(2014, 4, 30)),
(datetime.date(2014, 5, 1), datetime.date(2014, 5, 31))]
