谢谢@rofly，从字符串到字符串的完整转换如下:

import time
time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", 
              time.gmtime(time.mktime(time.strptime("2008-09-17 14:04:00", 
                                                    "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))))

我对时间/日历功能的总结:

time.strptime 字符串——>元组(没有应用时区，所以匹配字符串)

time.mktime 本地时间元组——自epoch以来>秒(始终是本地时间)

time.gmtime seconds since epoch——UTC中的>元组

and

calendar.timegm tuple in UTC——> seconds since epoch

time.localtime 自epoch ->元组在本地时区的秒数

我在dateutil(在SO网站上被广泛推荐用于其他相关问题)方面运气不错:

from datetime import *
from dateutil import *
from dateutil.tz import *

# METHOD 1: Hardcode zones:
utc_zone = tz.gettz('UTC')
local_zone = tz.gettz('America/Chicago')
# METHOD 2: Auto-detect zones:
utc_zone = tz.tzutc()
local_zone = tz.tzlocal()

# Convert time string to datetime
local_time = datetime.strptime("2008-09-17 14:02:00", '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

# Tell the datetime object that it's in local time zone since 
# datetime objects are 'naive' by default
local_time = local_time.replace(tzinfo=local_zone)
# Convert time to UTC
utc_time = local_time.astimezone(utc_zone)
# Generate UTC time string
utc_string = utc_time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

(代码是从这个答案派生的，将UTC日期时间字符串转换为本地日期时间)

import time

import datetime

def Local2UTC(LocalTime):

    EpochSecond = time.mktime(LocalTime.timetuple())
    utcTime = datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp(EpochSecond)

    return utcTime

>>> LocalTime = datetime.datetime.now()

>>> UTCTime = Local2UTC(LocalTime)

>>> LocalTime.ctime()

'Thu Feb  3 22:33:46 2011'

>>> UTCTime.ctime()

'Fri Feb  4 05:33:46 2011'

简单的

我是这样做的:

>>> utc_delta = datetime.utcnow()-datetime.now()
>>> utc_time = datetime(2008, 9, 17, 14, 2, 0) + utc_delta
>>> print(utc_time)
2008-09-17 19:01:59.999996

的实现

如果你想更花哨一点，你可以把它变成一个函子:

class to_utc():
    utc_delta = datetime.utcnow() - datetime.now()

    def __call__(cls, t):
        return t + cls.utc_delta

结果:

>>> utc_converter = to_utc()
>>> print(utc_converter(datetime(2008, 9, 17, 14, 2, 0)))
2008-09-17 19:01:59.999996

如果你已经有了一个datetime对象my_dt，你可以用以下方法将其更改为UTC:

datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp(my_dt.timestamp())

简单地说，要将任何datetime日期转换为UTC时间:

from datetime import datetime

def to_utc(date):
    return datetime(*date.utctimetuple()[:6])

让我们用一个例子来解释。首先，我们需要从字符串中创建一个datetime:

>>> date = datetime.strptime("11 Feb 2011 17:33:54 -0800", "%d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z")

然后，我们可以调用函数:

>>> to_utc(date)
datetime.datetime(2011, 2, 12, 1, 33, 54)

函数如何一步步工作:

>>> date.utctimetuple()
time.struct_time(tm_year=2011, tm_mon=2, tm_mday=12, tm_hour=1, tm_min=33, tm_sec=54, tm_wday=5, tm_yday=43, tm_isdst=0)
>>> date.utctimetuple()[:6]
(2011, 2, 12, 1, 33, 54)
>>> datetime(*date.utctimetuple()[:6])
datetime.datetime(2011, 2, 12, 1, 33, 54)
