I have the following code to do this, but how can I do it better? Right now I think it\'s better than nested loops, but it starts to get Perl-one-linerish when you have a ge

Can't* believe this question has existed for 9 years without anyone suggesting a simple recursive function:

from datetime import datetime, timedelta

def walk_days(start_date, end_date):
    if start_date <= end_date:
        print(start_date.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"))
        next_date = start_date + timedelta(days=1)
        walk_days(next_date, end_date)

#demo
start_date = datetime(2009, 5, 30)
end_date   = datetime(2009, 6, 9)

walk_days(start_date, end_date)

Output:

Edit: *Now I can believe it -- see Does Python optimize tail recursion? . Thank you Tim.

Here's code for a general date range function, similar to Ber's answer, but more flexible:

def count_timedelta(delta, step, seconds_in_interval):
    """Helper function for iterate.  Finds the number of intervals in the timedelta."""
    return int(delta.total_seconds() / (seconds_in_interval * step))


def range_dt(start, end, step=1, interval='day'):
    """Iterate over datetimes or dates, similar to builtin range."""
    intervals = functools.partial(count_timedelta, (end - start), step)

    if interval == 'week':
        for i in range(intervals(3600 * 24 * 7)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(weeks=i) * step

    elif interval == 'day':
        for i in range(intervals(3600 * 24)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(days=i) * step

    elif interval == 'hour':
        for i in range(intervals(3600)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(hours=i) * step

    elif interval == 'minute':
        for i in range(intervals(60)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(minutes=i) * step

    elif interval == 'second':
        for i in range(intervals(1)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(seconds=i) * step

    elif interval == 'millisecond':
        for i in range(intervals(1 / 1000)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(milliseconds=i) * step

    elif interval == 'microsecond':
        for i in range(intervals(1e-6)):
            yield start + datetime.timedelta(microseconds=i) * step

    else:
        raise AttributeError("Interval must be 'week', 'day', 'hour' 'second', \
            'microsecond' or 'millisecond'.")

from datetime import date,timedelta
delta = timedelta(days=1)
start = date(2020,1,1)
end=date(2020,9,1)
loop_date = start
while loop_date<=end:
    print(loop_date)
    loop_date+=delta

Show the last n days from today:

import datetime
for i in range(0, 100):
    print((datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(i)).isoformat())

Output:

Why not try:

import datetime as dt

start_date = dt.datetime(2012, 12,1)
end_date = dt.datetime(2012, 12,5)

total_days = (end_date - start_date).days + 1 #inclusive 5 days

for day_number in range(total_days):
    current_date = (start_date + dt.timedelta(days = day_number)).date()
    print current_date

I have a similar problem, but I need to iterate monthly instead of daily.

This is my solution

import calendar
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

def days_in_month(dt):
    return calendar.monthrange(dt.year, dt.month)[1]

def monthly_range(dt_start, dt_end):
    forward = dt_end >= dt_start
    finish = False
    dt = dt_start

    while not finish:
        yield dt.date()
        if forward:
            days = days_in_month(dt)
            dt = dt + timedelta(days=days)            
            finish = dt > dt_end
        else:
            _tmp_dt = dt.replace(day=1) - timedelta(days=1)
            dt = (_tmp_dt.replace(day=dt.day))
            finish = dt < dt_end

Example #1

date_start = datetime(2016, 6, 1)
date_end = datetime(2017, 1, 1)

for p in monthly_range(date_start, date_end):
    print(p)

Output

Example #2

date_start = datetime(2017, 1, 1)
date_end = datetime(2016, 6, 1)

for p in monthly_range(date_start, date_end):
    print(p)

Output
