Problem –
You want to get the current date and time in python.
Solution –
To get the current date and time in python, you can use the datetime module.
In [1]: from datetime import datetime
In [2]: now = datetime.now()
In [3]: now
Out[3]: datetime.datetime(2022, 6, 21, 8, 25, 11, 35507)
In [4]: print(now)
2022-06-21 08:25:11.035507
To only get the time without the date.
In [5]: now.time()
Out[5]: datetime.time(8, 25, 11, 35507)
In [6]: print(now.time())
08:25:11.035507
And if you only want the date without the time.
In [7]: now.date()
Out[7]: datetime.date(2022, 6, 21)
In [8]: print(now.date())
2022-06-21
