datetime.strptime将用户指定格式的输入字符串解析为时区原始日期时间对象：

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime.strptime('Jun 1 2005  1:33PM', '%b %d %Y %I:%M%p')
datetime.datetime(2005, 6, 1, 13, 33)

要使用现有的datetime对象获取日期对象，请使用.date（）对其进行转换：

>>> datetime.strptime('Jun 1 2005', '%b %d %Y').date()
date(2005, 6, 1)

笔记：

strptime=“字符串解析时间”strftime=“字符串格式时间”

使用熊猫时间戳似乎是最快的：

import pandas as pd

N = 1000

l = ['Jun 1 2005  1:33PM'] * N

list(pd.to_datetime(l, format=format))

%timeit _ = list(pd.to_datetime(l, format=format))
1.58 ms ± 21.6 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)

其他解决方案

from datetime import datetime
%timeit _ = list(map(lambda x: datetime.strptime(x, format), l))
9.41 ms ± 95.7 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100 loops each)

from dateutil.parser import parse
%timeit _ = list(map(lambda x: parse(x), l))
73.8 ms ± 1.14 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

如果字符串是ISO 8601字符串，请使用csio8601：

import ciso8601

l = ['2014-01-09'] * N

%timeit _ = list(map(lambda x: ciso8601.parse_datetime(x), l))
186 µs ± 4.13 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10000 loops each)

使用第三方dateutil库：

from dateutil import parser
parser.parse("Aug 28 1999 12:00AM")  # datetime.datetime(1999, 8, 28, 0, 0)

它可以处理大多数日期格式，并且比strptime更方便，因为它通常猜测正确的格式。它对于编写测试也非常有用，因为可读性比性能更重要。

安装时使用：

pip install python-dateutil

如果您不想明确指定字符串相对于日期时间格式的格式，可以使用此黑客绕过该步骤：

from dateutil.parser import parse

# Function that'll guess the format and convert it into the python datetime format
def update_event(start_datetime=None, end_datetime=None, description=None):
    if start_datetime is not None:
        new_start_time = parse(start_datetime)

        return new_start_time

# Sample input dates in different formats
d = ['06/07/2021 06:40:23.277000', '06/07/2021 06:40', '06/07/2021']

new = [update_event(i) for i in d]

for date in new:
    print(date)
    # Sample output dates in Python datetime object
    #   2014-04-23 00:00:00
    #   2013-04-24 00:00:00
    #   2014-04-25 00:00:00

如果要将其转换为其他日期时间格式，只需使用您喜欢的格式修改最后一行，例如date.strftime（“%Y/%m/%d%H:%m:%S.%f”）：

from dateutil.parser import parse

def update_event(start_datetime=None, end_datetime=None, description=None):
    if start_datetime is not None:
        new_start_time = parse(start_datetime)

        return new_start_time

# Sample input dates in different formats
d = ['06/07/2021 06:40:23.277000', '06/07/2021 06:40', '06/07/2021']

# Passing the dates one by one through the function
new = [update_event(i) for i in d]

for date in new:
    print(date.strftime('%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S.%f'))
    # Sample output dates in required Python datetime object
    #   2021/06/07 06:40:23.277000
    #   2021/06/07 06:40:00.000000
    #   2021/06/07 00:00:00.000000

尝试运行上面的代码段以获得更好的清晰度。

Use:

emp = pd.read_csv("C:\\py\\programs\\pandas_2\\pandas\\employees.csv")
emp.info()

它显示“开始日期时间”列和“上次登录时间”都是数据帧中的“对象=字符串”：

<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
RangeIndex: 1000 entries, 0 to 999
Data columns (total 8 columns):
First Name           933 non-null object
Gender               855 non-null object

    Start Date           1000 non-null object

    Last Login Time      1000 non-null object

Salary               1000 non-null int64
Bonus %              1000 non-null float64
Senior Management    933 non-null object
Team                 957 non-null object
dtypes: float64(1), int64(1), object(6)
memory usage: 62.6+ KB

通过使用read_csv中的parse_dates选项，可以将字符串datetime转换为panda datetime格式。

emp = pd.read_csv("C:\\py\\programs\\pandas_2\\pandas\\employees.csv", parse_dates=["Start Date", "Last Login Time"])
emp.info()

输出：

<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
RangeIndex: 1000 entries, 0 to 999
Data columns (total 8 columns):
First Name           933 non-null object
Gender               855 non-null object

     Start Date           1000 non-null datetime64[ns]
     Last Login Time      1000 non-null datetime64[ns]

Salary               1000 non-null int64
Bonus %              1000 non-null float64
Senior Management    933 non-null object
Team                 957 non-null object
dtypes: datetime64[ns](2), float64(1), int64(1), object(4)

Django时区感知日期时间对象示例。

import datetime
from django.utils.timezone import get_current_timezone
tz = get_current_timezone()

format = '%b %d %Y %I:%M%p'
date_object = datetime.datetime.strptime('Jun 1 2005  1:33PM', format)
date_obj = tz.localize(date_object)

当USE_TZ=True时，这种转换对于Django和Python非常重要：

RuntimeWarning: DateTimeField MyModel.created received a naive datetime (2016-03-04 00:00:00) while time zone support is active.
