# Convert seconds since epoch to Date only # Get file's Last modification time stamp only in terms of seconds since epoch Print('**** Get last modification time using os.path.getmtime() & time.localtime() ****') ModificationTime = time.ctime ( fileStatsObj ) Print('**** Get last modification time using os.stat() ****') Output: Last Modified Time : 09:34:09 UTCĬomplete example is as follows, import os Print('Last Modified Time : ', modificationTime, ' UTC') ModificationTime = (modTimesinceEpoc).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') modTimesinceEpoc = os.path.getmtime(filePath) To get the last modification time in UTC timezone use datetime.utcfromtimestamp() i.e. Get last modification time of a file in UTC Timezone For example, modTimesinceEpoc = os.path.getmtime(filePath) Then we can call time.strftime() to convert that to readable format.

Instead of time.localtime() we can also use another function omtimestamp() to convert seconds since epoch to time object. Get last modification time using os.path.getmtime() & omtimestamp() ModificationTime = time.strftime('%d/%m/%Y', time.localtime(os.path.getmtime(filePath))) Then by passing that time struct to time.strftime() we can get timestamp in readable format.īy changing format string in time.strftime() we can get date only and also in other format specific to our application i.e. Time.localtime() converts the seconds since epoch to a struct_time in local timezone. Print('Last Modified Time : ', modificationTime ) ModificationTime = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S', time.localtime(modTimesinceEpoc)) # Convert seconds since epoch to readable timestamp ModTimesinceEpoc = os.path.getmtime(filePath) Get last modification time using os.path.getmtime() & time.localtime() # Get file's Last modification time stamp only in terms of seconds since epoch
