time模块

逝去的秒数

逝去的秒数表示从某个时间(Python中是“Thu Jan 1 07:00:00 1970”)开始到现在所经过的秒数。

使用time.time()函数可以获得逝去的秒数：

>>time.time()

1388330058.8643

time.time()返回一个浮点数，可用于计算，比较，存储时间时间。

输出可读性强的时间字符串

要输出像“Thu Jan 1 07:00:00 1970”这种可读性强的时间字符串，我们可以使用time.ctime()函数，默认返回当前的时间：

>>> time.ctime()

'Sun Dec 29 23:17:44 2013'

也可以传入一个逝去的秒数，返回对应的时间字符串：

>>> time.ctime(0)

'Thu Jan 1 07:00:00 1970'

获取时间的各个部分信息

我们经常要分别获取一个时间的年、月、日、时、分、秒等信息，time模块定义了一个struct_time类型，用来存储时间的各个部分信息。该类型实现了元组协议，所以可以当作元组使用。

struct_time 的结构如下：

IndexAttributeValues

0

tm_year

(for example, 1993)

1

tm_mon

range [1, 12]

2

tm_mday

range [1, 31]

3

tm_hour

range [0, 23]

4

tm_min

range [0, 59]

5

tm_sec

range [0, 61];

6

tm_wday

range [0, 6], Monday is 0

7

tm_yday

range [1, 366]

8

tm_isdst

0, 1 or -1; see below

有几个函数都可以返回struct_time,gmtime()返回当前的UTC时间，localtime()返回当前时间域的当前时间：

>>> time.gmtime()

time.struct_time(tm_year=2013, tm_mon=12, tm_mday=29, tm_hour=15, tm_min=35, tm_sec=57, tm_wday=6, tm_yday=363, tm_isdst=0)

>>> time.localtime()

time.struct_time(tm_year=2013, tm_mon=12, tm_mday=29, tm_hour=23, tm_min=36, tm_sec=6, tm_wday=6, tm_yday=363, tm_isdst=0)

gmtime() 和 localtime() 也接受一个逝去的秒数作为参数，并转换成struct_time：

>>> time.localtime(0)

time.struct_time(tm_year=1970, tm_mon=1, tm_mday=1, tm_hour=7, tm_min=0, tm_sec=0, tm_wday=3, tm_yday=1, tm_isdst=0)

mktime()接收 struct_time 参数并将其转化为逝去的秒数：

>>> time.mktime(time.localtime())

解析和格式化时间

如何将类似”Sun Dec 29 23:17:44 2013“的字符串解析成 struct_time？

time模块提供了两个函数来处理这方面的工作。 函数strptime()用于将时间字符串解析成 struct_time， 函数strftime()则将 struct_time 格式化成可读性强的时间字符串

import time

now = time.ctime()

print now

parsed = time.strptime(now)

print parsed

print time.strftime("%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y", parsed)

# output =>

# Sun Mar 9 13:01:19 2008

# (2008, 3, 9, 13, 1, 19, 6, 69, -1)

# Sun Mar 09 13:01:19 2008

这两个函数都依赖特定的格式说明信息，默认的格式说明为”%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y“。完整的格式列表可以在
