在这里，我会认真考虑奥卡姆剃刀方法:

td = str(timedelta).split('.')[0]

这将返回一个没有微秒的字符串

如果要重新生成datetime。Timedelta对象，只需要这样做:

h,m,s = re.split(':', td)
new_delta = datetime.timedelta(hours=int(h),minutes=int(m),seconds=int(s))

2年了，我爱上了这门语言!

我在工作中遇到过类似的加班计算输出问题。该值应该始终以HH:MM显示，即使它大于一天并且该值可能为负值。我结合了一些展示的解决方案，也许其他人会发现这个解决方案很有用。我意识到，如果timedelta值为负，大多数divmod方法所显示的解决方案都不能开箱即用:

def td2HHMMstr(td):
  '''Convert timedelta objects to a HH:MM string with (+/-) sign'''
  if td < datetime.timedelta(seconds=0):
    sign='-'
    td = -td
  else:
    sign = ''
  tdhours, rem = divmod(td.total_seconds(), 3600)
  tdminutes, rem = divmod(rem, 60)
  tdstr = '{}{:}:{:02d}'.format(sign, int(tdhours), int(tdminutes))
  return tdstr

timedelta to HH:MM

td2HHMMstr(datetime.timedelta(hours=1, minutes=45))
'1:54'

td2HHMMstr(datetime.timedelta(days=2, hours=3, minutes=2))
'51:02'

td2HHMMstr(datetime.timedelta(hours=-3, minutes=-2))
'-3:02'

td2HHMMstr(datetime.timedelta(days=-35, hours=-3, minutes=-2))
'-843:02'

我有一个函数:

def period(delta, pattern):
    d = {'d': delta.days}
    d['h'], rem = divmod(delta.seconds, 3600)
    d['m'], d['s'] = divmod(rem, 60)
    return pattern.format(**d)

例子:

>>> td = timedelta(seconds=123456789)
>>> period(td, "{d} days {h}:{m}:{s}")
'1428 days 21:33:9'
>>> period(td, "{h} hours, {m} minutes and {s} seconds, {d} days")
'21 hours, 33 minutes and 9 seconds, 1428 days'

针对这个问题的一个直接的模板过滤器。内置函数int()从不四舍五入。f - string(即f'')需要python 3.6。

@app_template_filter()
def diffTime(end, start):
    diff = (end - start).total_seconds()
    d = int(diff / 86400)
    h = int((diff - (d * 86400)) / 3600)
    m = int((diff - (d * 86400 + h * 3600)) / 60)
    s = int((diff - (d * 86400 + h * 3600 + m *60)))
    if d > 0:
        fdiff = f'{d}d {h}h {m}m {s}s'
    elif h > 0:
        fdiff = f'{h}h {m}m {s}s'
    elif m > 0:
        fdiff = f'{m}m {s}s'
    else:
        fdiff = f'{s}s'
    return fdiff

我想这样做，所以写了一个简单的函数。它对我来说非常有用，而且非常通用(支持年到微秒，以及任何粒度级别，例如，你可以选择“2天4小时48分钟”和“2天4小时”和“2天4.8小时”等。
