Let’s see some examples of using time module strptime() function. Time_object = datetime.strptime(time_str, '%H::%M::%S').time() We can use time() function alongwith strptime() function to convert string to time object. Print(date_object) # printed in default formatting We can use date() function alongwith strptime() function to convert string to date object. Print(datetime_object) # printed in default format String to datetime from datetime import datetimeĭatetime_object = datetime.strptime(datetime_str, '%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S') Let’s look into some specific examples of strptime() function to convert string to datetime and time objects. Locale’s appropriate time representation.
Locale’s appropriate date representation. Locale’s appropriate date and time representation. All days in a new year preceding the first Monday are considered to be in week 0. Week number of the year (Monday as the first day of the week) as a decimal number. All days in a new year preceding the first Sunday are considered to be in week 0. Week number of the year (Sunday as the first day of the week) as a zero padded decimal number. Time zone name (empty string if the object is naive).ĭay of the year as a zero-padded decimal number. UTC offset in the form ±HHMM (empty string if the object is naive). Microsecond as a decimal number, zero-padded on the left.Ġ00000, 000001, …, 999999 Not applicable with time module. Hour (12-hour clock) as a zero-padded decimal number. Hour (24-hour clock) as a zero-padded decimal number. Year without century as a zero-padded decimal number. January, February, …, December (en_US) Januar, Februar, …, Dezember (de_DE) Jan, Feb, …, Dec (en_US) Jan, Feb, …, Dez (de_DE)
Weekday as a decimal number, where 0 is Sunday and 6 is Saturday.ĭay of the month as a zero-padded decimal number. Sunday, Monday, …, Saturday (en_US) Sonntag, Montag, …, Samstag (de_DE) Sun, Mon, …, Sat (en_US) So, Mo, …, Sa (de_DE) Python strptime() format directivesįollowing table contains most of the commonly used format directives.
The exception message provides clear details about the issue in parsing. If the input string cannot be parsed according to the provided format, then ValueError is raised. If format string is not provided, it defaults to “%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y” which matches the formatting returned by ctime() function. Here the function returns struct_time object. We have the similar function available in time module too, where its syntax is: time.strptime(time_string) This function is exactly opposite of strftime() function, which converts datetime object to a string. Its syntax is: datetime.strptime(date_string, format)īoth the arguments are mandatory and should be string. Python strptime() is a class method in datetime class. This function is available in datetime and time modules to parse a string to datetime and time objects respectively. We can convert a string to datetime using strptime() function.
