My question is, the date is in "Month day-of-the-month time" format in the log file (ex. "Nov 22 15:15:42") and the current date I get from "datetime" module is in ISO format. How do I convert the date in log file to ISO format(or any other format) and then compare with the current date/time.
>>> import datetime # or try `from datetime import datetime` and use `datetime.today()`
>>> datetime.datetime.today() datetime.datetime(2009, 2, 19, 16, 34, 40, 358989) >>> datetime.datetime.today().strftime("%d-%m-%Y") '19-02-2009' >>> today=datetime.datetime.today().strftime("%d-%m-%Y") >>> today '19-02-2009' >>> today_dtobj=datetime.datetime.strptime(today, "%d-%m-%Y") >>> today_dtobj datetime.datetime(2009, 2, 19, 0, 0) >>> type(today_dtobj) <type 'datetime.datetime'> -- With Regards, Parthan "technofreak" (2FF01026) http://technofreak.in _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
