按照上面Joe的示例值，我将使用模算术运算符，因此:

td = datetime.timedelta(hours=10.56)
td_str = "%d:%d" % (td.seconds/3600, td.seconds%3600/60)

注意，Python中的整数除法默认是四舍五入;如果想要更显式，可以适当使用math.floor()或math.ceil()。

# Format seconds to days, hours, minutes and seconds string
def ptime(seconds):
if(seconds >= 86400):
    d = seconds // 86400 # // floor division
    return (f"{round(d)}d") + ptime(seconds - d * 86400)
else:
    if(seconds >= 3600):
        h = seconds // 3600 
        return (f"{round(h)}h") + ptime(seconds - h * 3600)
    else:
        if(seconds >= 60):
            m = seconds // 60
            return(f"{round(m)}m" + ptime(seconds - m * 60))
        else:
            if (seconds > 0):
                return(f"{round(seconds)}s")
            else:
                return("")

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'

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'

他已经有一个timedelta对象，所以为什么不使用其内置方法total_seconds()将其转换为秒，然后使用divmod()获得小时和分钟?

hours, remainder = divmod(myTimeDelta.total_seconds(), 3600)
minutes, seconds = divmod(remainder, 60)

# Formatted only for hours and minutes as requested
print '%s:%s' % (hours, minutes)

无论时间增量是天还是年，这都是有效的。

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'
