I've always hated the headache of managine dates, times, datetimes, and the various formats and conversions that are needed with them. I'm taking an online course on using the google app engine and it says to use the datetime property, which is returning a date in the format:
2012-06-25 01:17:40.273000
I tried
datetime.strptime('2012-06-25 01:17:40.273000','%y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
but it didn't work..
I just want to extract the 2012-06-25
part without using a hacky regex or string slicing solution.
How do I parse this and convert it to the proper format?
Finally found it (shortly after asking the question, but I've been trying for the past hour)
datetime.strptime('2012-06-25 01:17:40.273000','%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f')
What I wanted:
datetime.strptime('2012-06-25 01:17:40.273000','%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f').strftime('%m-%d-%Y')
