介绍
Arrow是一个Python库,它提供了一种合理且对人类友好的方法来创建、操作、格式化和转换日期、时间和时间戳。它实现了对datetime
类型的更新,填补了功能上的空白,提供了一个智能的模块API,支持许多常见的创建场景。简单来说,它可以帮助您使用更少的导入和更少的代码来处理日期和时间。
Arrow以时间之箭命名,并且受到moment.js
和requests
的极大启发。
为什么要使用Arrow而不是内置模块?
Python的标准库和其他一些低级模块拥有近乎完整的日期、时间和时区功能,但从可用性的角度来看,它们的工作效果并不理想:
-
模块太多:
datetime
,time
,calendar
,dateutil
,pytz
等 -
类型太多:
date
,time
,datetime
,tzinfo
,timedelta
,relativedelta
等 -
时区和时间戳转换冗长且不愉快
-
通常情况下都是时区不敏感的
-
功能上存在gap:ISO 8601支持、时区间隔支持、不够人性化

安装
使用 pip or pipenv:
pip install -U arrow
简单使用
>>> import arrow
>>> arrow.get('2024-06-13T17:23:58.970460+08:00')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T17:23:58.970460+08:00]>
>>> utc = arrow.utcnow()
>>> utc
<Arrow [2024-06-13T08:37:39.950050+00:00]>
>>> utc = utc.shift(hours=-1)
>>> utc
<Arrow [2024-06-13T07:37:39.950050+00:00]>
>>> local = utc.to('Asia/Shanghai')
>>> local
<Arrow [2024-06-13T15:37:39.950050+08:00]>
>>> local.timestamp()
1718264259.95005
>>> local.format()
'2024-06-13 15:37:39+08:00'
>>> local.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss ZZ')
'2024-06-13 15:37:39 +08:00'
>>> local.humanize()
'an hour ago'
>>> local.humanize(locale='zh-cn')
'1小时前'
用户指南
Creation(创建对象)
通过now
方法创建:
>>> arrow.utcnow()
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:03:42.591212+00:00]>
>>> arrow.now()
<Arrow [2024-06-13T17:04:00.926319+08:00]>
>>> arrow.now('Asia/Shanghai')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T17:04:25.058905+08:00]>
通过时间戳创建 (int
or float
):
>>> arrow.get(1718264259)
<Arrow [2024-06-13T07:37:39+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get(1718264259.95005)
<Arrow [2024-06-13T07:37:39.950050+00:00]>
使用无时区时间、有时区时间,或者灵活指定时区:
>>> arrow.get(datetime.utcnow())
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:14:15.099808+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get(datetime(2024, 6, 13), 'Asia/Shanghai')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T00:00:00+08:00]>
>>> from dateutil import tz
>>> arrow.get(datetime(2024, 6, 13), tz.gettz('Asia/Shanghai'))
<Arrow [2024-06-13T00:00:00+08:00]>
>>> arrow.get(datetime.now(),tz.gettz('Asia/Shanghai'))
<Arrow [2024-06-13T17:16:02.309002+08:00]>
从字符串转换:
>>> arrow.get('2024-06-13 15:30:45', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T15:30:45+00:00]>
从文本中查找日期:
>>> arrow.get('June was born in May 1980', 'MMMM YYYY')
<Arrow [1980-05-01T00:00:00+00:00]>
自动识别ISO 8601格式的字符串,并解析出相应的日期时间对象,包括时区信息:
>>> arrow.get('2024-06-13T15:34:00.000-08:00')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T15:34:00-08:00]>
直接实例化Arrow对象(使用datetime类一样的参数):
>>> arrow.get(2024, 6, 13)
<Arrow [2024-06-13T00:00:00+00:00]>
>>>
>>> arrow.Arrow(2024, 6, 13)
<Arrow [2024-06-13T00:00:00+00:00]>
Properties(属性)
获取日期时间或时间戳表示形式:
>>> a = arrow.utcnow()
>>> a.datetime
datetime.datetime(2024, 6, 13, 9, 25, 1, 195217, tzinfo=tzutc())
获取一个原生的时间,包含tzinfo:
>>> a.naive
datetime.datetime(2024, 6, 13, 9, 25, 1, 195217)
>>> a.tzinfo
tzutc()
获取任意日期时间值:
>>> a.year
2024
>>> a.month
6
调用datetime类相关函数和属性:
>>> a.date()
datetime.date(2024, 6, 13)
>>> a.time()
datetime.time(9, 25, 1, 195217)
Replace & Shift(替换和偏移)
获取一个新的Arrow对象,更改其属性,就像处理datetime
类型一样:
>>> arw = arrow.utcnow()
>>> arw
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:33:30.538303+00:00]>
>>> arw.replace(hour=4, minute=40)
<Arrow [2024-06-13T04:40:30.538303+00:00]>
或者,将属性向前或向后移动的:
>>> arw.shift(weeks=+3)
<Arrow [2024-07-04T09:33:30.538303+00:00]>
>>> arw.shift(days=-3)
<Arrow [2024-06-10T09:33:30.538303+00:00]>
甚至,直接替换时区
>>> arw.replace(tzinfo='US/Pacific')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:33:30.538303-07:00]>
Format(格式化)
arrow.utcnow().format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss ZZ')
'2024-06-13 09:34:54 +00:00'
Convert(转换)
按名称或tzinfo从UTC转换为其他时区:
>>> utc = arrow.utcnow()
>>> utc
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:36:22.204239+00:00]>
>>> utc.to('US/Pacific')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T02:36:22.204239-07:00]>
>>> utc.to(tz.gettz('US/Pacific'))
<Arrow [2024-06-13T02:36:22.204239-07:00]>
或者使用简写:
>>> utc.to('local')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T17:36:22.204239+08:00]>
>>> utc.to('local').to('utc')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:36:22.204239+00:00]>
Humanize(人性化)
相对于现在时间的人性化表现:
>>> past = arrow.utcnow().shift(hours=-1)
>>> past.humanize()
'an hour ago'
或者另一个Arrow对下或日期时间:
>>> present = arrow.utcnow()
>>> future = present.shift(hours=2)
>>> future.humanize(present)
'in 2 hours'
将时间表示为相对时间或仅包括时间距离:
>>> present = arrow.utcnow()
>>> future = present.shift(hours=2)
>>> future.humanize(present)
'in 2 hours'
>>> future.humanize(present, only_distance=True)
'2 hours'
指定特定的时间粒度(或多个):
>>> present = arrow.utcnow()
>>> future = present.shift(minutes=66)
>>> future.humanize(present, granularity="minute")
'in 66 minutes'
>>> future.humanize(present, granularity=["hour", "minute"])
'in an hour and 6 minutes'
>>> present.humanize(future, granularity=["hour", "minute"])
'an hour and 6 minutes ago'
>>> future.humanize(present, only_distance=True, granularity=["hour", "minute"])
'an hour and 6 minutes'
支持不同时区的语言显示:
>>> future = arrow.utcnow().shift(hours=1)
>>> future.humanize(a, locale='ru')
'через час'
>>> future.humanize(a, locale='zh-cn')
'1小时后'
Dehumanize(去人性化)
使用人类可读的字符串描述,并使用它转换到过去的时间:
>>> arw = arrow.utcnow()
>>> arw
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:47:35.616633+00:00]>
>>> earlier = arw.dehumanize("2 days ago")
>>> earlier
<Arrow [2024-06-11T09:47:35.616633+00:00]>
或者用它来转换到未来的时间:
>>> arw = arrow.utcnow()
>>> arw
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:47:35.616633+00:00]>
>>> later = arw.dehumanize("in a month")
>>> later
<Arrow [2024-07-13T09:47:35.616633+00:00]>
支持不同时区的语言转换:
>>> later = arw.dehumanize('1小时后', locale="zh-cn")
>>> later
<Arrow [2024-06-13T10:47:35.616633+00:00]>
Ranges & Spans(范围&跨度)
获取任意单位的时间跨度:
>>> arrow.utcnow().span('hour')
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T09:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
>>> arrow.utcnow().span('day')
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T00:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T23:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
或者只获取最大最小值:
>>> arrow.utcnow().floor('hour')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:00:00+00:00]>
>>> arrow.utcnow().ceil('hour')
<Arrow [2024-06-13T09:59:59.999999+00:00]>
您还可以获取一系列时间跨度:
>>> start = datetime(2024, 6, 13, 12, 30)
>>> end = datetime(2024, 6, 13, 17, 15)
>>> for r in arrow.Arrow.span_range('hour', start, end):
... print(r)
...
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T12:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T12:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T13:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T13:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T14:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T14:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T15:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T15:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T16:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T16:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
(<Arrow [2024-06-13T17:00:00+00:00]>, <Arrow [2024-06-13T17:59:59.999999+00:00]>)
或者只是获取一系列时间点:
>>> start = datetime(2024, 6, 13, 12, 30)
>>> end = datetime(2024, 6, 13, 17, 15)
>>> for r in arrow.Arrow.range('hour', start, end):
... print(repr(r))
...
<Arrow [2024-06-13T12:30:00+00:00]>
<Arrow [2024-06-13T13:30:00+00:00]>
<Arrow [2024-06-13T14:30:00+00:00]>
<Arrow [2024-06-13T15:30:00+00:00]>
<Arrow [2024-06-13T16:30:00+00:00]>
Factories(工厂方法)
使用工厂模式实现自定义Arrow派生类型,来继承和扩展Arrow的模块API。首先,定义您的类型:
class CustomArrow(arrow.Arrow):
...
... def days_till_xmas(self):
... xmas = arrow.Arrow(self.year, 12, 25)
... if self > xmas:
... xmas = xmas.shift(years=1)
... return (xmas - self).days
然后使用工厂:
>>> factory = arrow.ArrowFactory(CustomArrow)
>>> custom = factory.utcnow()
>>> custom
<CustomArrow [2024-06-13T10:02:04.898347+00:00]>
>>> custom.days_till_xmas()

Built-in Formats(内置格式)
>>> arw = arrow.utcnow()
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_ATOM)
'2024-06-13 10:05:40+00:00'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_COOKIE)
'Thursday, 13-Jun-2024 10:05:40 UTC'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RSS)
'Thu, 13 Jun 2024 10:05:40 +0000'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RFC822)
'Thu, 13 Jun 24 10:05:40 +0000'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RFC850)
'Thursday, 13-Jun-24 10:05:40 UTC'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RFC1036)
'Thu, 13 Jun 24 10:05:40 +0000'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RFC1123)
'Thu, 13 Jun 2024 10:05:40 +0000'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RFC2822)
'Thu, 13 Jun 2024 10:05:40 +0000'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_RFC3339)
'2024-06-13 10:05:40+00:00'
>>> arw.format(arrow.FORMAT_W3C)
'2024-06-13 10:05:40+00:00'
Escaping Formats(转义格式)
解析和格式化时,可以通过将格式字符串中的标记、短语和正则表达式括在方括号中来转义它们。
标记格式
>>> fmt = "YYYY-MM-DD h [h] m"
>>> arw = arrow.get("2024-06-13 8 h 40", fmt)
>>> arw.format(fmt)
'2024-06-13 8 h 40'
>>> fmt = "YYYY-MM-DD h [hello] m"
>>> arw = arrow.get("2024-06-13 8 hello 40", fmt)
>>> arw
<Arrow [2024-06-13T08:40:00+00:00]>
>>> arw.format(fmt)
'2024-06-13 8 hello 40'
>>> fmt = "YYYY-MM-DD h [hello world] m"
>>> arw = arrow.get("2024-05-16 8 hello world 40", fmt)
>>> arw.format(fmt)
'2024-05-16 8 hello world 40'
正则
您还可以通过将正则表达式括在方括号内来转义它们。在下面的示例中,我们使用正则表达式s+来匹配分隔标记的任意数量的空白字符。如果您不提前知道令牌之间的空间数(例如,在日志文件中),这将非常有用。
>>> fmt = r"ddd[\s+]MMM[\s+]DD[\s+]HH:mm:ss[\s+]YYYY"
>>> arrow.get("Thu Jun 16 16:41:45 2024", fmt)
<Arrow [2024-06-16T16:41:45+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get("Thu \tJun 16 16:41:45 2024", fmt)
<Arrow [2024-06-16T16:41:45+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get("Thu Jun 16 16:41:45 2024", fmt)
<Arrow [2024-06-16T16:41:45+00:00]>
Punctuation(标点符号)
日期和时间格式的两侧可以用以下列表中的一个标点符号隔开:、.;:!" \
' [ ] { } ( ) < >`
>>> arrow.get("Cool date: 2024-06-16T09:12:45.123456+04:30.", "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.SZZ")
<Arrow [2024-06-16T09:12:45.123456+04:30]>
>>> arrow.get("Tomorrow (2024-06-16) is Halloween!", "YYYY-MM-DD")
<Arrow [2024-06-16T00:00:00+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get("Halloween is on 2024.06.16.", "YYYY.MM.DD")
<Arrow [2024-06-16T00:00:00+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get("It's Halloween tomorrow (2024-06-16)!", "YYYY-MM-DD")

Redundant Whitespace(冗余空白字符处理)
多余的空白字符(空格、制表符和换行符)可以通过将normalize_whitespace
标志传递到arrow.get
来自动规范化:
>>> arrow.get('\t \n 2024-06-13T12:30:45.123456 \t \n', normalize_whitespace=True)
<Arrow [2024-06-13T12:30:45.123456+00:00]>
>>> arrow.get('2024-06-13 T \n 12:30:45\t123456', 'YYYY-MM-DD T HH:mm:ss S', normalize_whitespace=True)
