我使用人类友好的python库来做这件事，它工作得非常好。

import humanfriendly
from datetime import timedelta
delta = timedelta(seconds = 321)
humanfriendly.format_timespan(delta)

'5 minutes and 21 seconds'

我知道这是一个老问题，但我使用datetime.utcfromtimestamp()来解决这个问题。它接受秒数并返回一个datetime，该datetime可以像任何其他datetime一样格式化。

duration = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(end - begin)
print duration.strftime('%H:%M')

只要您停留在时间部分的合法范围内，这就应该工作，即它不会返回1234:35，因为小时<= 23。

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'

我接着MarredCheese的回答，加上了年、月、毫秒和微秒

除秒外，所有数字都被格式化为整数，因此秒的分数可以自定义。

@kfmfe04要求几分之一秒，所以我发布了这个解决方案

大体上有一些例子。

from string import Formatter
from datetime import timedelta

def strfdelta(tdelta, fmt='{D:02}d {H:02}h {M:02}m {S:02.0f}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:02.0f}s' --> '05d 08h 04m 02s' (default)
        '{W}w {D}d {H}:{M:02}:{S:02.0f}'     --> '4w 5d 8:04:02'
        '{D:2}d {H:2}:{M:02}:{S:02.0f}'      --> ' 5d  8:04:02'
        '{H}h {S:.0f}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 = tdelta.total_seconds()
    elif inputtype in ['s', 'seconds']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)
    elif inputtype in ['m', 'minutes']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*60
    elif inputtype in ['h', 'hours']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*3600
    elif inputtype in ['d', 'days']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*86400
    elif inputtype in ['w', 'weeks']:
        remainder = float(tdelta)*604800

    f = Formatter()
    desired_fields = [field_tuple[1] for field_tuple in f.parse(fmt)]
    possible_fields = ('Y','m','W', 'D', 'H', 'M', 'S', 'mS', 'µS')
    constants = {'Y':86400*365.24,'m': 86400*30.44 ,'W': 604800, 'D': 86400, 'H': 3600, 'M': 60, 'S': 1, 'mS': 1/pow(10,3) , 'µS':1/pow(10,6)}
    values = {}
    for field in possible_fields:
        if field in desired_fields and field in constants:
            Quotient, remainder = divmod(remainder, constants[field])
            values[field] = int(Quotient) if field != 'S' else Quotient + remainder
    return f.format(fmt, **values)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    td = timedelta(days=717, hours=3, minutes=5, seconds=8, microseconds=3549)
    print(strfdelta(td,'{Y} years {m} months {W} weeks {D} days {H:02}:{M:02}:{S:02}'))  
    print(strfdelta(td,'{m} months {W} weeks {D} days {H:02}:{M:02}:{S:02.4f}'))  
    td = timedelta( seconds=8, microseconds=8549)
    print(strfdelta(td,'{S} seconds {mS} milliseconds {µS} microseconds'))  
    print(strfdelta(td,'{S:.0f} seconds {mS} milliseconds {µS} microseconds'))  
    print(strfdelta(pow(10,7),inputtype='s'))

输出:

1 years 11 months 2 weeks 3 days 01:09:56.00354900211096
23 months 2 weeks 3 days 00:12:20.0035

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))
