Python display milliseconds in formatted string using `time.strftime`

问题


I am trying to format milliseconds to formatted string preserving the milliseconds part. Here's my code:

import time

time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S:%f', time.gmtime(1515694048121/1000.0))

where 1515694048121 is a time in milliseconds. It returns me:

2018-01-11 18:07:28:f

As we can see, the millisecond portion of time is not returned.

What is correct format to include millisecond portion of time? Is '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S:%f' not correct ?


回答1:


There is the no directive mentioned in time.strftime(...) that will return you the milliseconds. Not sure from where you got the reference to use %f. In fact time.gmtime(...) holds the precision only upto seconds.

As a hack, in order to achieve this, you may explicitly format your string by preserving your milli second value as:

>>> import time

>>> time_in_ms = 1515694048121
>>> time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S:{}'.format(time_in_ms%1000), time.gmtime(time_in_ms/1000.0))
'2018-01-11 18:07:28:121'

Here's the list of valid directives:

In fact time.gmtime gets a number of seconds as input parameter. As a consequence, the milliseconds are not taken into account:

>>> import time
>>> time.gmtime(1515694048121/1000.0) == time.gmtime(1515694048000/1000.0)
True

The function documentation clearly mentions it:

Fractions of a second are ignored.
