感谢Mark Amery的出色回答，我设计了一个函数来解释所有可能的ISO日期时间格式：

class FixedOffset(tzinfo):
    """Fixed offset in minutes: `time = utc_time + utc_offset`."""
    def __init__(self, offset):
        self.__offset = timedelta(minutes=offset)
        hours, minutes = divmod(offset, 60)
        #NOTE: the last part is to remind about deprecated POSIX GMT+h timezones
        #  that have the opposite sign in the name;
        #  the corresponding numeric value is not used e.g., no minutes
        self.__name = '<%+03d%02d>%+d' % (hours, minutes, -hours)
    def utcoffset(self, dt=None):
        return self.__offset
    def tzname(self, dt=None):
        return self.__name
    def dst(self, dt=None):
        return timedelta(0)
    def __repr__(self):
        return 'FixedOffset(%d)' % (self.utcoffset().total_seconds() / 60)
    def __getinitargs__(self):
        return (self.__offset.total_seconds()/60,)

def parse_isoformat_datetime(isodatetime):
    try:
        return datetime.strptime(isodatetime, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f')
    except ValueError:
        pass
    try:
        return datetime.strptime(isodatetime, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S')
    except ValueError:
        pass
    pat = r'(.*?[+-]\d{2}):(\d{2})'
    temp = re.sub(pat, r'\1\2', isodatetime)
    naive_date_str = temp[:-5]
    offset_str = temp[-5:]
    naive_dt = datetime.strptime(naive_date_str, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f')
    offset = int(offset_str[-4:-2])*60 + int(offset_str[-2:])
    if offset_str[0] == "-":
        offset = -offset
    return naive_dt.replace(tzinfo=FixedOffset(offset))

你得到的确切错误是什么？它像下面这样吗？

>>> datetime.datetime.strptime("2008-08-12T12:20:30.656234Z", "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.Z")
ValueError: time data did not match format:  data=2008-08-12T12:20:30.656234Z  fmt=%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.Z

如果是，您可以将输入字符串拆分为“.”，然后将微秒添加到获得的日期时间中。

试试看：

>>> def gt(dt_str):
        dt, _, us= dt_str.partition(".")
        dt= datetime.datetime.strptime(dt, "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S")
        us= int(us.rstrip("Z"), 10)
        return dt + datetime.timedelta(microseconds=us)

>>> gt("2008-08-12T12:20:30.656234Z")
datetime.datetime(2008, 8, 12, 12, 20, 30, 656234)

在所有受支持的Python版本中，将类似ISO 8601的日期字符串转换为UNIX时间戳或datetime.datetime对象而无需安装第三方模块的一种简单方法是使用SQLite的日期解析器。

#!/usr/bin/env python
from __future__ import with_statement, division, print_function
import sqlite3
import datetime

testtimes = [
    "2016-08-25T16:01:26.123456Z",
    "2016-08-25T16:01:29",
]
db = sqlite3.connect(":memory:")
c = db.cursor()
for timestring in testtimes:
    c.execute("SELECT strftime('%s', ?)", (timestring,))
    converted = c.fetchone()[0]
    print("%s is %s after epoch" % (timestring, converted))
    dt = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(int(converted))
    print("datetime is %s" % dt)

输出：

2016-08-25T16:01:26.123456Z is 1472140886 after epoch
datetime is 2016-08-25 12:01:26
2016-08-25T16:01:29 is 1472140889 after epoch
datetime is 2016-08-25 12:01:29

只需使用python dateutil模块：

>>> import dateutil.parser as dp
>>> t = '1984-06-02T19:05:00.000Z'
>>> parsed_t = dp.parse(t)
>>> print(parsed_t)
datetime.datetime(1984, 6, 2, 19, 5, tzinfo=tzutc())

文档

如果不想使用dateutil，可以尝试使用以下函数：

def from_utc(utcTime,fmt="%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%fZ"):
    """
    Convert UTC time string to time.struct_time
    """
    # change datetime.datetime to time, return time.struct_time type
    return datetime.datetime.strptime(utcTime, fmt)

测试：

from_utc("2007-03-04T21:08:12.123Z")

结果：

datetime.datetime(2007, 3, 4, 21, 8, 12, 123000)

因为ISO 8601允许出现许多可选冒号和破折号的变体，基本上是CCYY MM DDThh:MM:ss[Z|（+|-）hh:MM]。如果你想使用strptime，你需要先去掉这些变体。目标是生成utc-datetime对象。如果您只需要一个适用于UTC的Z后缀的基本案例，如2016-06-29T19:36:29.3453Z：

datetime.datetime.strptime(timestamp.translate(None, ':-'), "%Y%m%dT%H%M%S.%fZ")

如果您想处理时区偏移，如2016-06-29T19:36:29.3453-0400或2008-09-03T20:56:55.450686+05:00，请使用以下命令。这些将把所有变体转换成没有变量分隔符的东西，如20080903T205635.450686+0500，使其更一致/更容易解析。

import re
# this regex removes all colons and all 
# dashes EXCEPT for the dash indicating + or - utc offset for the timezone
conformed_timestamp = re.sub(r"[:]|([-](?!((\d{2}[:]\d{2})|(\d{4}))$))", '', timestamp)
datetime.datetime.strptime(conformed_timestamp, "%Y%m%dT%H%M%S.%f%z" )

如果您的系统不支持%z strptime指令（您看到类似ValueError的内容：“z”是格式为“%Y%m%dT%H%m%S.%f%z”的错误指令），则需要手动从z（UTC）偏移时间。注意%z在python版本＜3的系统上可能不起作用，因为它依赖于c库支持，而c库支持随系统/python构建类型（例如Jython、Cython等）而变化。

import re
import datetime

# this regex removes all colons and all 
# dashes EXCEPT for the dash indicating + or - utc offset for the timezone
conformed_timestamp = re.sub(r"[:]|([-](?!((\d{2}[:]\d{2})|(\d{4}))$))", '', timestamp)

# split on the offset to remove it. use a capture group to keep the delimiter
split_timestamp = re.split(r"[+|-]",conformed_timestamp)
main_timestamp = split_timestamp[0]
if len(split_timestamp) == 3:
    sign = split_timestamp[1]
    offset = split_timestamp[2]
else:
    sign = None
    offset = None

# generate the datetime object without the offset at UTC time
output_datetime = datetime.datetime.strptime(main_timestamp +"Z", "%Y%m%dT%H%M%S.%fZ" )
if offset:
    # create timedelta based on offset
    offset_delta = datetime.timedelta(hours=int(sign+offset[:-2]), minutes=int(sign+offset[-2:]))
    # offset datetime with timedelta
    output_datetime = output_datetime + offset_delta
