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'

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。

import datetime
hours = datetime.timedelta(hours=16, minutes=30)
print((datetime.datetime(1,1,1) + hours).strftime('%H:%M'))

下面是一个stringify timedelta.total_seconds()的函数。它在python2和python3中工作。

def strf_interval(seconds):
    days, remainder = divmod(seconds, 86400)
    hours, remainder = divmod(remainder, 3600)
    minutes, seconds = divmod(remainder, 60)
    return '{} {} {} {}'.format(
            "" if int(days) == 0 else str(int(days)) + ' days',
            "" if int(hours) == 0 else str(int(hours)) + ' hours',
            "" if int(minutes) == 0 else str(int(minutes))  + ' mins',
            "" if int(seconds) == 0 else str(int(seconds))  + ' secs'
        )

示例输出:

>>> print(strf_interval(1))
   1 secs
>>> print(strf_interval(100))
  1 mins 40 secs
>>> print(strf_interval(1000))
  16 mins 40 secs
>>> print(strf_interval(10000))
 2 hours 46 mins 40 secs
>>> print(strf_interval(100000))
1 days 3 hours 46 mins 40 secs

针对这个问题的一个直接的模板过滤器。内置函数int()从不四舍五入。f - string(即f'')需要python 3.6。

@app_template_filter()
def diffTime(end, start):
    diff = (end - start).total_seconds()
    d = int(diff / 86400)
    h = int((diff - (d * 86400)) / 3600)
    m = int((diff - (d * 86400 + h * 3600)) / 60)
    s = int((diff - (d * 86400 + h * 3600 + m *60)))
    if d > 0:
        fdiff = f'{d}d {h}h {m}m {s}s'
    elif h > 0:
        fdiff = f'{h}h {m}m {s}s'
    elif m > 0:
        fdiff = f'{m}m {s}s'
    else:
        fdiff = f'{s}s'
    return fdiff

如果你已经有一个timedelta obj，那么只需将obj转换为字符串。删除字符串的最后3个字符并打印。这将截断秒部分，并以小时:分钟的格式打印其余部分。

t = str(timedeltaobj) 

print t[:-3]
