我接着MarredCheese的回答，加上了年、月、毫秒和微秒

除秒外，所有数字都被格式化为整数，因此秒的分数可以自定义。

@kfmfe04要求几分之一秒，所以我发布了这个解决方案

大体上有一些例子。

from string import Formatter
from datetime import timedelta

def strfdelta(tdelta, fmt='{D:02}d {H:02}h {M:02}m {S:02.0f}s', inputtype='timedelta'):
    """Convert a datetime.timedelta object or a regular number to a custom-
    formatted string, just like the stftime() method does for datetime.datetime
    objects.

    The fmt argument allows custom formatting to be specified.  Fields can 
    include seconds, minutes, hours, days, and weeks.  Each field is optional.

    Some examples:
        '{D:02}d {H:02}h {M:02}m {S:02.0f}s' --> '05d 08h 04m 02s' (default)
        '{W}w {D}d {H}:{M:02}:{S:02.0f}'     --> '4w 5d 8:04:02'
        '{D:2}d {H:2}:{M:02}:{S:02.0f}'      --> ' 5d  8:04:02'
        '{H}h {S:.0f}s'                       --> '72h 800s'

    The inputtype argument allows tdelta to be a regular number instead of the  
    default, which is a datetime.timedelta object.  Valid inputtype strings: 
        's', 'seconds', 
        'm', 'minutes', 
        'h', 'hours', 
        'd', 'days', 
        'w', 'weeks'
    """

    # Convert tdelta to integer seconds.
    if inputtype == 'timedelta':
        remainder = tdelta.total_seconds()
    elif inputtype in ['s', 'seconds']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)
    elif inputtype in ['m', 'minutes']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*60
    elif inputtype in ['h', 'hours']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*3600
    elif inputtype in ['d', 'days']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*86400
    elif inputtype in ['w', 'weeks']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*604800

    f = Formatter()
    desired_fields = [field_tuple[1] for field_tuple in f.parse(fmt)]
    possible_fields = ('Y','m','W', 'D', 'H', 'M', 'S', 'mS', 'µS')
    constants = {'Y':86400*365.24,'m': 86400*30.44 ,'W': 604800, 'D': 86400, 'H': 3600, 'M': 60, 'S': 1, 'mS': 1/pow(10,3) , 'µS':1/pow(10,6)}
    values = {}
    for field in possible_fields:
        if field in desired_fields and field in constants:
            Quotient, remainder = divmod(remainder, constants[field])
            values[field] = int(Quotient) if field != 'S' else Quotient + remainder
    return f.format(fmt, **values)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    td = timedelta(days=717, hours=3, minutes=5, seconds=8, microseconds=3549)
    print(strfdelta(td,'{Y} years {m} months {W} weeks {D} days {H:02}:{M:02}:{S:02}'))  
    print(strfdelta(td,'{m} months {W} weeks {D} days {H:02}:{M:02}:{S:02.4f}'))  
    td = timedelta( seconds=8, microseconds=8549)
    print(strfdelta(td,'{S} seconds {mS} milliseconds {µS} microseconds'))  
    print(strfdelta(td,'{S:.0f} seconds {mS} milliseconds {µS} microseconds'))  
    print(strfdelta(pow(10,7),inputtype='s'))

输出:

1 years 11 months 2 weeks 3 days 01:09:56.00354900211096
23 months 2 weeks 3 days 00:12:20.0035
8.008549 seconds 8 milliseconds 549 microseconds
8 seconds 8 milliseconds 549 microseconds
115d 17h 46m 40s

t1 = datetime.datetime.strptime(StartTime, "%H:%M:%S %d-%m-%y")

t2 = datetime.datetime.strptime(EndTime, "%H:%M:%S %d-%m-%y")

return str(t2-t1)

所以对于:

StartTime = '15:28:53 21-07-13'
EndTime = '15:32:40 21-07-13'

返回:

'0:03:47'

如果你已经有一个timedelta obj，那么只需将obj转换为字符串。删除字符串的最后3个字符并打印。这将截断秒部分，并以小时:分钟的格式打印其余部分。

t = str(timedeltaobj) 

print t[:-3]

如您所知，您可以通过访问.seconds属性从timedelta对象中获得total_seconds。

Python提供了内置函数divmod()，它允许:

s = 13420
hours, remainder = divmod(s, 3600)
minutes, seconds = divmod(remainder, 60)
print('{:02}:{:02}:{:02}'.format(int(hours), int(minutes), int(seconds)))
# result: 03:43:40

或者你可以结合使用模和减法来转换小时和余数:

# arbitrary number of seconds
s = 13420
# hours
hours = s // 3600 
# remaining seconds
s = s - (hours * 3600)
# minutes
minutes = s // 60
# remaining seconds
seconds = s - (minutes * 60)
# total time
print('{:02}:{:02}:{:02}'.format(int(hours), int(minutes), int(seconds)))
# result: 03:43:40

我个人使用humanize库:

>>> import datetime
>>> humanize.naturalday(datetime.datetime.now())
'today'
>>> humanize.naturalday(datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1))
'yesterday'
>>> humanize.naturalday(datetime.date(2007, 6, 5))
'Jun 05'
>>> humanize.naturaldate(datetime.date(2007, 6, 5))
'Jun 05 2007'
>>> humanize.naturaltime(datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(seconds=1))
'a second ago'
>>> humanize.naturaltime(datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(seconds=3600))
'an hour ago'

当然，它并没有给您所寻找的确切答案(实际上是str(timeA - timeB)，但我发现，一旦超过几个小时，显示很快就变得不可读了。Humanize支持更大的值，这些值是人类可读的，而且本地化得很好。

它的灵感来自于Django的贡献。humanize模块，显然，既然你在使用Django，你应该使用它。

def td_format(td_object):
    seconds = int(td_object.total_seconds())
    periods = [
        ('year',        60*60*24*365),
        ('month',       60*60*24*30),
        ('day',         60*60*24),
        ('hour',        60*60),
        ('minute',      60),
        ('second',      1)
    ]

    strings=[]
    for period_name, period_seconds in periods:
        if seconds > period_seconds:
            period_value , seconds = divmod(seconds, period_seconds)
            has_s = 's' if period_value > 1 else ''
            strings.append("%s %s%s" % (period_value, period_name, has_s))

    return ", ".join(strings)
