Answer 1

you can just take datetime input apart and ajust time

 def ajustTime():

from datetime import datetime

mytime= datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H-%M")

m = mytime.split()

hours, mints = m[1].split('-')

if 15 <= int(mints) <= 45:
    mints = ':30'
elif int(mints) < 15:
    mints = ':00'
elif int(mints) > 45:
    mints = ':00'
    h = int(hours) + 1
    hours = str(h)

print(m[0] + " " + hours + mints)

ajustTime()

output
