Date difference in minutes in Python

Question

How do I calculate the difference in time in minutes for the following timestamp in Python?

2010-01-01 17:31:22
2010-01-03 17:31:22

Answer 1

In Other ways to get difference between date;

import dateutil.parser
import datetime

timeDifference = current_date - dateutil.parser.parse(last_sent_date)
time_difference_in_minutes = (int(timeDifference.days) * 24 * 60) + int((timeDifference.seconds) / 60)
