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'

如果您的包中碰巧有IPython(您应该)，那么它(到目前为止)有一个非常好的持续时间格式器(以浮点秒为单位)。它被用于许多地方，例如%%时间单元格魔法。我喜欢它在短时间内产生的格式:

>>> from IPython.core.magics.execution import _format_time
>>> 
>>> for v in range(-9, 10, 2):
...     dt = 1.25 * 10**v
...     print(_format_time(dt))

1.25 ns
125 ns
12.5 µs
1.25 ms
125 ms
12.5 s
20min 50s
1d 10h 43min 20s
144d 16h 13min 20s
14467d 14h 13min 20s

我建议使用以下方法，这样我们就可以利用标准格式化函数pandas.Timestamp.strftime!

from pandas import Timestamp, Timedelta

(Timedelta("2 hours 30 min") + Timestamp("00:00:00")).strftime("%H:%M")

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

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

请检查这个函数-它将timedelta对象转换为字符串'HH:MM:SS'

def format_timedelta(td):
    hours, remainder = divmod(td.total_seconds(), 3600)
    minutes, seconds = divmod(remainder, 60)
    hours, minutes, seconds = int(hours), int(minutes), int(seconds)
    if hours < 10:
        hours = '0%s' % int(hours)
    if minutes < 10:
        minutes = '0%s' % minutes
    if seconds < 10:
        seconds = '0%s' % seconds
    return '%s:%s:%s' % (hours, minutes, seconds)
