import time

from datetime import datetime
s1=datetime.now()
print s1
time.sleep(2)
s2=datetime.now()

FMT = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%s'
tdelta = datetime.strptime(s2, FMT) - datetime.strptime(s1, FMT)

Hello,

when you're trying this:

tdelta = datetime.strptime(s2, FMT) - datetime.strptime(s1, FMT)

the s2 and s1 are datetime.datetime objects so you got the error.
you have to change the FMT to :

FMT = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f'

because .now() return time with msconds ...

then use

tdelta = datetime.strptime(str(d2),FMT) - datetime.strptime(str(d1),FMT)

then you'll get datetime.timedelta object ....

I hope this will help you ...

Hai demirel,
Please specify a header file,
*from datetime import datetime*
First create a two datetime field in py file,
*ex:*
*start_work = fields.Datetime(string="Start work")*
*  *                    *end_work = fields.Datetime(string="End work")*
*work_hours=fields.Float(string="Total Working Hours",compute='sal_cal',store=True)*
then create a compute function name as sal_cal
*@api.depends('start_work','end_work')*
*  *                    *def sal_cal(self):*
*    *                        *t

use this for ref.... surely it will heelp you..

from datetime import datetime
d1='2014-11-15'
d2='2013-11-15'
d1 = datetime.strptime(d1, "%Y-%m-%d")
d2 = datetime.strptime(d2, "%Y-%m-%d")
print abs((d2 - d1).days)/(12*30)
print datetime.now().date()
