如何将js日期时间字符串转换为python日期时间对象

Question

Say I have a datetime string created form a datetime input in html as:

"2020-11-27T16:18"

How would I convert this to a datetime object in python:

string_date = "2020-11-27T16:18"
datetime_object = ????

Is there a specific way to format this date into a datetime object in python?

Answer 1

Here how to do it using datetime.strptime :

>>> import datetime
>>> 
>>> datetime.datetime.strptime(string_date, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M')
datetime.datetime(2020, 11, 27, 16, 18)

Or a more convenient and clean solution as pointed out by @MrFuppes is to use datetime.fromisoformat

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> string_date = "2020-11-27T16:18"
>>> datetime.fromisoformat(string_date)
datetime.datetime(2020, 11, 27, 16, 18)
