In this article, we will learn how to convert Pythons .isoFormat() string back into a datetime object. Here we are using the current time and for that, we will store the current time in the current_time variable.
The function now() of this module, does the job perfectly.
Example: Getting current time
Python3
from datetime import datetime
current_time = datetime.now()
print(current_time)
|
Output:
2021-07-22 15:17:19.735037
Get the string format of time
In this step, we are going to get the string format of the iso time. For this, isoformat() function is used.
Example: getting string format of time
Python3
from datetime import datetime
current_time = datetime.now().isoformat()
print(current_time)
|
Output
2021-07-26T11:36:17.090181
Get the DateTime object from the iso format
So here we are going to get the DateTime object from the iso string. For that fromisoformat() function is used.
Example: Get the DateTime object from the iso format
Python3
from datetime import datetime
current_time = datetime.now().isoformat()
print(datetime.fromisoformat(current_time))

Output:
2021-07-26 17:06:51.149731
