hi i have 2 epoch microseconds and i would like to know the datetime difference then print out the difference with human readable.
Epoch Microseconds:
Output:
Start : 1519614072686129
End : 1519614073798275
Would like to know the difference on this time and print human readable with microseconds intact.

I am sorry but it doesnt tell me anywhere in there to
convert epoch microseconds to a datetime object.
Everything starts from datetime object.
Most of the tutorial shows datetime.datetime.now()
but i have epoch microseconds.
deadeye@nexus ~ $ import datetime
deadeye@nexus ~ $ import time
deadeye@nexus ~ $ datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(time.time())
datetime.datetime(2018, 2, 27, 8, 29, 46, 464030)
deadeye@nexus ~ $
Hi ,
Thank you all, despite all trying to help, but i couldn't understand.
I have managed to solve it myself. Hence, i will just share with whoever looking for solutions too.
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
# epoch timestamp in microseconds
arr = [
'1519649295496484 -> 1519649327106949',
'1519649400617116 -> 1519649400728112',
'1519649441795007 -> 1519649442855342',
'1519649654498861 -> 1519649655227328'
]
epoch = datetime(1970, 1, 1)
if len(arr):
for line in arr:
tmp = []
dateTimes = line.split('->')
for epochTime in dateTimes:
cookie_microseconds_since_epoch = int(epochTime)
cookie_datetime = epoch + timedelta(microseconds=cookie_microseconds_since_epoch)
tmp.append(cookie_datetime)
for index, item in enumerate(tmp):
if len(tmp) == index + 1:
break
elapsedTime = tmp[index + 1] - item
print str(item) + ' -> ' + str(tmp[index + 1]) + ' : ' + str(elapsedTime)Output:
2018-02-26 12:48:15.496484 -> 2018-02-26 12:48:47.106949 : 0:00:31.610465
2018-02-26 12:50:00.617116 -> 2018-02-26 12:50:00.728112 : 0:00:00.110996
2018-02-26 12:50:41.795007 -> 2018-02-26 12:50:42.855342 : 0:00:01.060335
2018-02-26 12:54:14.498861 -> 2018-02-26 12:54:15.227328 : 0:00:00.728467
This solution will get a list of timestamp with native epoch timestamp.
Then split the timestamp and add to its own array with datetime format.
Perform the time difference calculation.
And finally print the output. // change the printing output if you need it differently.
