Installation

pip install duration

Usage

Examples below show how to convert timestamps in hh:mm:ss and mm:ss format to iso8601 strings, integer seconds, datetime.timedelta objects and (hours, minutes, seconds,) deltas

from duration import (
    to_iso8601,
    to_seconds,
    to_timedelta,
    to_tuple,
)

time = '1:23:45'

iso8601 = to_iso8601(time) # 'PT01H23M45S'
seconds = to_seconds(time) # 5025
td = to_timedelta(time) # timedelta(hours=1, minutes=23, seconds=45)
tuple_ = to_tuple(time) # (1, 23, 45,)

Examples above use strict mode by default. In strict mode, conversion functions raise StrictnessError if your duration string meets one of the following conditions:

1. hh > 23

2. mm > 59

3. ss > 59

To disable strict mode, pass strict=False to the conversion function

from duration import (
    to_iso8601,
    to_seconds,
    to_timedelta,
    to_tuple,
)

time = '24:83:25'

iso8601 = to_iso8601(time, strict=False) # 'P1DT01H23M25S'
seconds = to_seconds(time, strict=False) # 91405
td = to_timedelta(time, strict=False) # timedelta(seconds=91405)
tuple_ = to_tuple(time, strict=False) # (25, 23, 25,)
