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

from django.utils.translation import ngettext

def localize_timedelta(delta):
    ret = []
    num_years = int(delta.days / 365)
    if num_years > 0:
        delta -= timedelta(days=num_years * 365)
        ret.append(ngettext('%d year', '%d years', num_years) % num_years)

    if delta.days > 0:
        ret.append(ngettext('%d day', '%d days', delta.days) % delta.days)

    num_hours = int(delta.seconds / 3600)
    if num_hours > 0:
        delta -= timedelta(hours=num_hours)
        ret.append(ngettext('%d hour', '%d hours', num_hours) % num_hours)

    num_minutes = int(delta.seconds / 60)
    if num_minutes > 0:
        ret.append(ngettext('%d minute', '%d minutes', num_minutes) % num_minutes)

    return ' '.join(ret)

这将产生:

>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>> localize_timedelta(timedelta(days=3660, minutes=500))
'10 years 10 days 8 hours 20 minutes'

下面是一个通用函数，用于将timedelta对象或常规数字(以秒或分钟等形式)转换为格式化良好的字符串。我采用了mpounsett对一个重复问题的出色回答，使其更加灵活，提高了可读性，并添加了文档。

你会发现这是迄今为止最灵活的答案，因为它允许你:

动态自定义字符串格式，而不是硬编码。 省略特定的时间间隔没有问题(参见下面的例子)。

功能:

from string import Formatter
from datetime import timedelta

def strfdelta(tdelta, fmt='{D:02}d {H:02}h {M:02}m {S:02}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}s' --> '05d 08h 04m 02s' (default)
        '{W}w {D}d {H}:{M:02}:{S:02}'     --> '4w 5d 8:04:02'
        '{D:2}d {H:2}:{M:02}:{S:02}'      --> ' 5d  8:04:02'
        '{H}h {S}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 = int(tdelta.total_seconds())
    elif inputtype in ['s', 'seconds']:
        remainder = int(tdelta)
    elif inputtype in ['m', 'minutes']:
        remainder = int(tdelta)*60
    elif inputtype in ['h', 'hours']:
        remainder = int(tdelta)*3600
    elif inputtype in ['d', 'days']:
        remainder = int(tdelta)*86400
    elif inputtype in ['w', 'weeks']:
        remainder = int(tdelta)*604800

    f = Formatter()
    desired_fields = [field_tuple[1] for field_tuple in f.parse(fmt)]
    possible_fields = ('W', 'D', 'H', 'M', 'S')
    constants = {'W': 604800, 'D': 86400, 'H': 3600, 'M': 60, 'S': 1}
    values = {}
    for field in possible_fields:
        if field in desired_fields and field in constants:
            values[field], remainder = divmod(remainder, constants[field])
    return f.format(fmt, **values)

演示:

>>> td = timedelta(days=2, hours=3, minutes=5, seconds=8, microseconds=340)

>>> print strfdelta(td)
02d 03h 05m 08s

>>> print strfdelta(td, '{D}d {H}:{M:02}:{S:02}')
2d 3:05:08

>>> print strfdelta(td, '{D:2}d {H:2}:{M:02}:{S:02}')
 2d  3:05:08

>>> print strfdelta(td, '{H}h {S}s')
51h 308s

>>> print strfdelta(12304, inputtype='s')
00d 03h 25m 04s

>>> print strfdelta(620, '{H}:{M:02}', 'm')
10:20

>>> print strfdelta(49, '{D}d {H}h', 'h')
2d 1h

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)

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)

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'
