仅仅减去秒并不能帮助您知道是否已经跨越了一天的边界,因此有必要将时间戳转换为
datetime
添加由于时区可能会影响UTC时间戳的日历日,您可能需要
tzinfo
对象。
from datetime import timedelta, datetime
def time_diff(start_timestamp, end_timestamp, tz=None):
""" Return time difference in years, months, and days.
If *tz* is None, the timestamp is converted to the platformâs local date
and time. Otherwise, *tz* should be an instance of a *tzinfo* subclass.
"""
# Determine whether we're going forward or backward in time
ago = ''
if end_timestamp < start_timestamp:
ago = 'ago'
start_timestamp, end_timestamp = end_timestamp, start_timestamp
# Compute the calendar dates from the timestamps
d1 = datetime.fromtimestamp(start_timestamp, tz)
d2 = datetime.fromtimestamp(end_timestamp, tz)
# Advance d1 day-by-day until the day is at or above d2.day
days = 0
while d2.day < d1.day:
days += 1
d1 += timedelta(days=1)
# Now compute the day difference
days += d2.day - d1.day
# Compute the totals months difference and express in years and months
total_months = (d2.year * 12 + d2.month) - (d1.year * 12 + d1.month)
years, months = divmod(total_months, 12)
# format the output
plural = lambda n: '' if n == 1 else 's'
return '%d year%s, %d month%s, and %d day%s %s' % (
years, plural(years), months, plural(months), days, plural(days), ago)
以下是如何使用该函数的示例:
from datetime import tzinfo
class GMT1(tzinfo):
# Example tzinfo subclass taken from the Python docs
def utcoffset(self, dt):
return timedelta(hours=1)
def dst(self, dt):
return timedelta(0)
def tzname(self,dt):
return "Europe/Prague"
print(time_diff(1479081600.0, 1482105600.0, tz=GMT1()))
这将输出:
0 years, 1 month, and 5 days
