I have a pandas
DataFrame
df
that contains Timesatamp
columns.
I wish to create an iterator of rows (either via the iter..
methods or via to_dict
) from df
where the Timesatamp
values are python datetime
.
I have tried doing this
for col in df.select_dtypes(['datetime']):
df[col] = df[col].dt.to_pydatetime()
however it seems like the columns is still Timesatamp
when using the above mentioned iterator methods. Is there a 'batch'y way to achieve this apart from manualy converting each values when its iterated upon?
example
df = pd.DataFrame({'d': pd.date_range('2018-01-01', freq='12h', periods=2), 'a':[1,2]})
for col in df.select_dtypes(['datetime']):
df[col] = df[col].dt.to_pydatetime()
print(df.to_dict('records'))
the output:
[{'d': Timestamp('2018-01-01 00:00:00'), 'a': 1}, {'d': Timestamp('2018-01-01 12:00:00'), 'a': 2}]
the desired output:
[{'d': datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 1, 0, 0), 'a': 1}, {'d': datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 1, 12, 0), 'a': 2}]
You can try
df[col] = pd.Series(df[col].dt.to_pydatetime(), dtype = object)
instead of
df[col] = df[col].dt.to_pydatetime()
One workaround is the following:
#Initialize empty records list
records=[]
#Iterate over datetime columns
for col in df.select_dtypes(['datetime']):
#Create a temp list consisting of dictionaries
temp_df=[{col: r.to_pydatetime()} for r in df[col]]
#Add it to records
records+=temp_df
which result is:
records
[{'d': datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 1, 0, 0)},
{'d': datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 2, 0, 0)}]
Try it:
df["d"]=df.d.apply(lambda t: t.date())
df.d.to_dict()
{0: datetime.date(2018, 1, 1), 1: datetime.date(2018, 1, 2)}
