Create an ISODate with pyMongo
You just need to store an instance of datetime.datetime.
Inserting from the python shell:
>>> c.test.test.insert({'date': datetime.datetime.utcnow()})ObjectId('4e8b388367d5bd2de0000000')>>> c.test.test.find_one(){u'date': datetime.datetime(2011, 10, 4, 16, 46, 59, 786000), u'_id': ObjectId('4e8b388367d5bd2de0000000')}
Querying in the mongo shell:
> db.test.findOne(){ "_id" : ObjectId("4e8b388367d5bd2de0000000"), "date" : ISODate("2011-10-04T16:46:59.786Z")}
For those who are wondering how to create ISODate from timestamp:
ts = time.time()isodate = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(ts, None)
This will create datetime
object with no timezone. When inserted to MongoDB it will get converted to proper ISODate()
.
Also, I strongly recommend looking at Python TimeTransitionsImage. Note that tuple
here is named tuple (equivalent to struct in C). And also note that tuple fields are not the same as in C counterparts, even though the naming is the same (for instance, tm_wday starts with Monday and not Sunday).
Actually that does not work either. When you try to use either utcfromtimestamp or fromtimestamp, the program errors out saying that it needs a float. Just parse the string into a date time object and use that directly in the Mongodb. filter
from_dt = datetime.strptime('2018-04-01','%Y-%m-%d')#from_dts = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(from_dt)to_dt = datetime.strptime('2018-04-30','%Y-%m-%d')#to_dts = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(to_dt)filterCondition = { "LastLogin" : { "$lte" : to_dt}, "LastLogin" : { "$gte" : from_dt}}
And then
db[(colName)].find({ "<colName>" : filterCondition })
Would work...
