我想这样做，所以写了一个简单的函数。它对我来说非常有用，而且非常通用(支持年到微秒，以及任何粒度级别，例如，你可以选择“2天4小时48分钟”和“2天4小时”和“2天4.8小时”等。

def pretty_print_timedelta(t, max_components=None, max_decimal_places=2):
''' 
Print a pretty string for a timedelta. 
For example datetime.timedelta(days=2, seconds=17280) will be printed as '2 days, 4 hours, 48 minutes'. Setting max_components to e.g. 1 will change this to '2.2 days', where the 
number of decimal points can also be set. 
'''
time_scales = [timedelta(days=365), timedelta(days=1), timedelta(hours=1), timedelta(minutes=1), timedelta(seconds=1), timedelta(microseconds=1000), timedelta(microseconds=1)]
time_scale_names_dict = {timedelta(days=365): 'year',  
                         timedelta(days=1): 'day', 
                         timedelta(hours=1): 'hour', 
                         timedelta(minutes=1): 'minute', 
                         timedelta(seconds=1): 'second', 
                         timedelta(microseconds=1000): 'millisecond', 
                         timedelta(microseconds=1): 'microsecond'}
count = 0
txt = ''
first = True
for scale in time_scales:
    if t >= scale: 
        count += 1
        if count == max_components:
            n = t / scale
        else:
            n = int(t / scale)
            
        t -= n*scale
        
        n_txt = str(round(n, max_decimal_places))
        if n_txt[-2:]=='.0': n_txt = n_txt[:-2]
        txt += '{}{} {}{}'.format('' if first else ', ', n_txt, time_scale_names_dict[scale], 's' if n>1 else '', )
        if first:
            first = False
        
        
if len(txt) == 0: 
    txt = 'none'
return txt

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
8.008549 seconds 8 milliseconds 549 microseconds
8 seconds 8 milliseconds 549 microseconds
115d 17h 46m 40s

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'

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)

在这里，我会认真考虑奥卡姆剃刀方法:

td = str(timedelta).split('.')[0]

这将返回一个没有微秒的字符串

如果要重新生成datetime。Timedelta对象，只需要这样做:

h,m,s = re.split(':', td)
new_delta = datetime.timedelta(hours=int(h),minutes=int(m),seconds=int(s))

2年了，我爱上了这门语言!

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
