twisted.protocols.amp.DateTime(Argument) class documentationtwisted.protocols.amp
(View In Hierarchy)
Encodes datetime.datetime instances.
Wire format: '%04i-%02i-%02iT%02i:%02i:%02i.%06i%s%02i:%02i'. Fields in order are: year, month, day, hour, minute, second, microsecond, timezone direction (+ or -), timezone hour, timezone minute. Encoded string is always exactly 32 characters long. This format is compatible with ISO 8601, but that does not mean all ISO 8601 dates can be accepted.
Also, note that the datetime module's notion of a "timezone"
can be complex, but the wire format includes only a fixed offset, so the
conversion is not lossless. A lossless transmission of a
datetime instance is not feasible since the receiving end
would require a Python interpreter.
| Method | fromString | Parse a string containing a date and time in the wire format into a
datetime.datetime instance. |
| Method | toString | Serialize a datetime.datetime instance to a string in the
specified wire format. |
| Instance Variable | _positions | A sequence of slices giving the positions of various interesting parts of the wire format. |
Inherited from Argument:
| Method | __init__ | Create an Argument. |
| Method | retrieve | Retrieve the given key from the given dictionary, removing it if found. |
| Method | fromBox | Populate an 'out' dictionary with mapping names to Python values decoded from an 'in' AmpBox mapping strings to string values. |
| Method | toBox | Populate an 'out' AmpBox with strings encoded from an 'in' dictionary mapping names to Python values. |
| Method | fromStringProto | Convert a string to a Python value. |
| Method | toStringProto | Convert a Python object to a string. |
