timedelta-isoformat 0.1.0.2

Supplemental ISO8601 duration format support for datetime.timedelta

The timedelta-isoformat library provides supplemental ISO 8601 duration support to the datetime.timedelta class.

The library is pure-Python, and does not depend upon regular expressions.

Functionality is provided in a subclass of datetime.timedelta that implements additional isoformat() and fromisoformat(duration_string) methods.

Usage

>>> from timedelta_isoformat import timedelta
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>>
>>> epoch = datetime(year=2022, month=10, day=2)
>>> now = datetime.utcnow()
>>>
>>> td = timedelta(seconds=(now - epoch).total_seconds())
>>> td.isoformat()
'P55DT17H28M51S'
>>>
>>> epoch + timedelta.fromisoformat('P55DT17H28M51S')
datetime.datetime(2022, 11, 26, 17, 28, 51)
