Timedelta到字符串，用于打印运行时间信息。

def strfdelta_round(tdelta, round_period='second'):
  """timedelta to string,  use for measure running time
  attend period from days downto smaller period, round to minimum period
  omit zero value period  
  """
  period_names = ('day', 'hour', 'minute', 'second', 'millisecond')
  if round_period not in period_names:
    raise Exception(f'round_period "{round_period}" invalid, should be one of {",".join(period_names)}')
  period_seconds = (86400, 3600, 60, 1, 1/pow(10,3))
  period_desc = ('days', 'hours', 'mins', 'secs', 'msecs')
  round_i = period_names.index(round_period)
  
  s = ''
  remainder = tdelta.total_seconds()
  for i in range(len(period_names)):
    q, remainder = divmod(remainder, period_seconds[i])
    if int(q)>0:
      if not len(s)==0:
        s += ' '
      s += f'{q:.0f} {period_desc[i]}'
    if i==round_i:
      break
    if i==round_i+1:
      s += f'{remainder} {period_desc[round_i]}'
      break
    
  return s

例如，自动省略零前导周期:

>>> td = timedelta(days=0, hours=2, minutes=5, seconds=8, microseconds=3549)
>>> strfdelta_round(td, 'second')
'2 hours 5 mins 8 secs'

或者省略中间的零周期:

>>> td = timedelta(days=2, hours=0, minutes=5, seconds=8, microseconds=3549)
>>> strfdelta_round(td, 'millisecond')
'2 days 5 mins 8 secs 3 msecs'

或舍入至分钟，省略以下分钟:

>>> td = timedelta(days=1, hours=2, minutes=5, seconds=8, microseconds=3549)
>>> strfdelta_round(td, 'minute')
'1 days 2 hours 5 mins'

提问者想要一个比典型的更好的格式:

  >>> import datetime
  >>> datetime.timedelta(seconds=41000)
  datetime.timedelta(0, 41000)
  >>> str(datetime.timedelta(seconds=41000))
  '11:23:20'
  >>> str(datetime.timedelta(seconds=4102.33))
  '1:08:22.330000'
  >>> str(datetime.timedelta(seconds=413302.33))
  '4 days, 18:48:22.330000'

所以，实际上有两种格式，一种是天数为0，它被省略了，另一种是文本“n天，h:m:s”。但是，秒可能有分数，打印输出中没有前导0，所以列很乱。

如果你喜欢，下面是我的日常工作:

def printNiceTimeDelta(stime, etime):
    delay = datetime.timedelta(seconds=(etime - stime))
    if (delay.days > 0):
        out = str(delay).replace(" days, ", ":")
    else:
        out = "0:" + str(delay)
    outAr = out.split(':')
    outAr = ["%02d" % (int(float(x))) for x in outAr]
    out   = ":".join(outAr)
    return out

返回dd:hh:mm:ss格式的输出:

00:00:00:15
00:00:00:19
02:01:31:40
02:01:32:22

我确实想过在上面加上年份，但这是留给读者的练习，因为超过1年的输出是安全的:

>>> str(datetime.timedelta(seconds=99999999))
'1157 days, 9:46:39'

您可以使用str()将timedelta转换为字符串。这里有一个例子:

import datetime
start = datetime.datetime(2009,2,10,14,00)
end   = datetime.datetime(2009,2,10,16,00)
delta = end-start
print(str(delta))
# prints 2:00:00

def seconds_to_time_left_string(total_seconds):
    s = int(total_seconds)
    years = s // 31104000
    if years > 1:
        return '%d years' % years
    s = s - (years * 31104000)
    months = s // 2592000
    if years == 1:
        r = 'one year'
        if months > 0:
            r += ' and %d months' % months
        return r
    if months > 1:
        return '%d months' % months
    s = s - (months * 2592000)
    days = s // 86400
    if months == 1:
        r = 'one month'
        if days > 0:
            r += ' and %d days' % days
        return r
    if days > 1:
        return '%d days' % days
    s = s - (days * 86400)
    hours = s // 3600
    if days == 1:
        r = 'one day'
        if hours > 0:
            r += ' and %d hours' % hours
        return r 
    s = s - (hours * 3600)
    minutes = s // 60
    seconds = s - (minutes * 60)
    if hours >= 6:
        return '%d hours' % hours
    if hours >= 1:
        r = '%d hours' % hours
        if hours == 1:
            r = 'one hour'
        if minutes > 0:
            r += ' and %d minutes' % minutes
        return r
    if minutes == 1:
        r = 'one minute'
        if seconds > 0:
            r += ' and %d seconds' % seconds
        return r
    if minutes == 0:
        return '%d seconds' % seconds
    if seconds == 0:
        return '%d minutes' % minutes
    return '%d minutes and %d seconds' % (minutes, seconds)

for i in range(10):
    print pow(8, i), seconds_to_time_left_string(pow(8, i))


Output:
1 1 seconds
8 8 seconds
64 one minute and 4 seconds
512 8 minutes and 32 seconds
4096 one hour and 8 minutes
32768 9 hours
262144 3 days
2097152 24 days
16777216 6 months
134217728 4 years

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'

我的datetime。Timedelta对象的时间大于一天。这是一个更深层次的问题。以上所有讨论都假设时间不超过一天。timedelta实际上是一个由日、秒和微秒组成的元组。上面的讨论应该使用td。秒，因为乔做了，但如果你有天，它不包括在秒值。

我得到2个日期时间和打印天和小时之间的时间跨度。

span = currentdt - previousdt
print '%d,%d\n' % (span.days,span.seconds/3600)
