I have the following data extracted from the data above. which contains time and a number.I want to plot the data as a timeseries using matplotlib.

I was the following code.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

match = ("L8 <Mx JK31 (Mx)")
with open("test.txt") as fin:
print(' : {}', fin.name)
for line in fin:
    if match in line:
        line = line.strip.split()
        time = line[2]
        size = line[9].strip(",")
        plt.plot(time, data_size)

I am getting the following error.

04:00:07 27

You can use the parser package from dateutil . It handles a lot of common formats without having to specify format strings.

from dateutil import parser

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

match = ("L8 <Mx JK31 (Mx)")
with open("test.txt") as fin:
    print(' : {}', fin.name)
    time_data = []
    size_data = []
    for line in fin:

        if match in line:
           line = line.strip.split()
           time_str = line[2]
           t = parser.parse(time_str)  ## NOTE: changed 'time' to 't', because it's a bad idea to use 'time' as a variable name, since it is a python built-in
           time_data.append(t)
           size = int(line[9].strip(","))
           size_data.append(size)
    plt.plot(time_data, size_data)   

Also note: parser.parse() returns a datetime object that includes a year/month/day value. If none is specified (as in your example), the year/month/day will be set to the current day.

UPDATE: Here's a way to generalize for multiple match strings:

from dateutil import parser

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

match_list = ["L8 <Mx JK31 (Mx)", "L9 <Mx JK31 (Mx)"]  ## put all match strings in this list
with open("test.txt") as fin:
    print(' : {}', fin.name)
    time_data = {}  ## save data in dictionaries, with string keys and lists as values
    size_data = {}
    for line in fin:
        for match in match_list:
            if match in line:
               if match not in time_data:
                   time_data[match] = []  ## initialize empty list the first time this key is encountered
                   size_data[match] = []
               line = line.strip.split()
               time_str = line[2]
               t = parser.parse(time_str)  
               time_data[match].append(t)
               size = int(line[9].strip(","))
               size_data[match].append(size)
    for match in match_list:
        plt.figure()  ## create a new figure for each data set
        plt.plot(time_data[match], size_data[match])
    plot.show()  ## simultaneously show all plots
