在这里，我会认真考虑奥卡姆剃刀方法:

td = str(timedelta).split('.')[0]

这将返回一个没有微秒的字符串

如果要重新生成datetime。Timedelta对象，只需要这样做:

h,m,s = re.split(':', td)
new_delta = datetime.timedelta(hours=int(h),minutes=int(m),seconds=int(s))

2年了，我爱上了这门语言!

如果您的包中碰巧有IPython(您应该)，那么它(到目前为止)有一个非常好的持续时间格式器(以浮点秒为单位)。它被用于许多地方，例如%%时间单元格魔法。我喜欢它在短时间内产生的格式:

>>> from IPython.core.magics.execution import _format_time
>>> 
>>> for v in range(-9, 10, 2):
...     dt = 1.25 * 10**v
...     print(_format_time(dt))

def seconds_to_time_left_string(total_seconds):
    s = int(total_seconds)
    years = s // 31104000
    if years > 1:
        return '%d years' % years
    s = s - (years * 31104000)
    months = s // 2592000
    if years == 1:
        r = 'one year'
        if months > 0:
            r += ' and %d months' % months
        return r
    if months > 1:
        return '%d months' % months
    s = s - (months * 2592000)
    days = s // 86400
    if months == 1:
        r = 'one month'
        if days > 0:
            r += ' and %d days' % days
        return r
    if days > 1:
        return '%d days' % days
    s = s - (days * 86400)
    hours = s // 3600
    if days == 1:
        r = 'one day'
        if hours > 0:
            r += ' and %d hours' % hours
        return r 
    s = s - (hours * 3600)
    minutes = s // 60
    seconds = s - (minutes * 60)
    if hours >= 6:
        return '%d hours' % hours
    if hours >= 1:
        r = '%d hours' % hours
        if hours == 1:
            r = 'one hour'
        if minutes > 0:
            r += ' and %d minutes' % minutes
        return r
    if minutes == 1:
        r = 'one minute'
        if seconds > 0:
            r += ' and %d seconds' % seconds
        return r
    if minutes == 0:
        return '%d seconds' % seconds
    if seconds == 0:
        return '%d minutes' % minutes
    return '%d minutes and %d seconds' % (minutes, seconds)

for i in range(10):
    print pow(8, i), seconds_to_time_left_string(pow(8, i))


Output:
1 1 seconds
8 8 seconds
64 one minute and 4 seconds
512 8 minutes and 32 seconds
4096 one hour and 8 minutes
32768 9 hours
262144 3 days
2097152 24 days
16777216 6 months
134217728 4 years

一个班轮。由于timedelta不提供datetime的strftime，所以将timedelta带回datetime，并使用stftime。

这不仅可以实现OP要求的格式Hours:Minutes，现在您可以利用datetime的strftime的全部格式化功能，如果您的需求更改为另一种表示形式。

import datetime
td = datetime.timedelta(hours=2, minutes=10, seconds=5)
print(td)
print(datetime.datetime.strftime(datetime.datetime.strptime(str(td), "%H:%M:%S"), "%H:%M"))

Output:
2:10:05
02:10

这也解决了时间增量被格式化为H:MM:SS而不是HH:MM:SS的字符串的烦恼，这导致了我的这个问题，以及我分享的解决方案。

我想这样做，所以写了一个简单的函数。它对我来说非常有用，而且非常通用(支持年到微秒，以及任何粒度级别，例如，你可以选择“2天4小时48分钟”和“2天4小时”和“2天4.8小时”等。
