Working with time in Python is
confusing.
There are three different standard types for representing time:
seconds since epoch, tuples, and the datetime
module. And there's common add-ons like mxDateTime
and database
times.
I was having a heck of a time parsing RFC 822 strings like you see in HTTP headers and email. The problem is timezones are not supported by strptime() or the tuple format. But the Web is my programmer:
def parseRFC822Time(t):
return calendar.timegm(
time.strptime(t, "%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %Z"))
The magic here is the calendar
module which has the timegm() function missing from the
time module.
Thanks to a couple of readers for pointing out
there's also a rfc822.parsedate() function.
