django python date time set to midnight
Using datetimes's "combine" with the time.min and time.max will give both of your datetimes.For example:
from datetime import date, datetime, timepub_date = date.today()min_pub_date_time = datetime.combine(pub_date, time.min) max_pub_date_time = datetime.combine(pub_date, time.max) Result with pub_date of 6/5/2013:
min_pub_date_time -> datetime.datetime(2013, 6, 5, 0, 0)
max_pub_date_time -> datetime.datetime(2013, 6, 5, 23, 59, 59, 999999)
Try this:
import datetimepub = lastItem.pub_dateend_date = datetime.datetime(pub.year, pub.month, pub.day)
Are you sure you don't want to use dates instead of datetimes? If you're always setting the time to midnight, you should consider using a date. If you really want to use datetimes, here's a function to get the same day at midnight:
def set_to_midnight(dt): midnight = datetime.time(0) return datetime.datetime.combine(dt.date(), midnight)
