Use datetime. today() to get today's date in local time. Use today - datetime. timedelta(days=1) to subtract one day from the previous result today .
To get yesterday's date, you need to subtract one day from today. Use current_date to get today's date. In Oracle, you can subtract any number of days simply by subtracting that number from the current date.
now() – How to Get Today's Date and Time. You can use the datetime module in Python to retrieve data about date and time.
To convert a datetime to seconds, subtracts the input datetime from the epoch time. For Python, the epoch time starts at 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970. Subtraction gives you the timedelta object. Use the total_seconds() method of a timedelta object to get the number of seconds since the epoch.
Use timedelta:
datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)
