python3 datetime.timestamp in python2?

Question

I have a piece of python3 code, that calls a function at 22:00.

# Imports
from datetime import datetime, date, time, timedelta
import sched         


        

Answer 1

use time.time() in python2, it's analog to datetime.timestamp() in python3

datetime.datetime.timestamp

IF you need for current datetime realization, see implementation of that in python3:

def timestamp(self):
    "Return POSIX timestamp as float"
    if self._tzinfo is None:
        return _time.mktime((self.year, self.month, self.day,
                             self.hour, self.minute, self.second,
                             -1, -1, -1)) + self.microsecond / 1e6
    else:
        return (self - _EPOCH).total_seconds()

where _EPOCH = datetime(1970, 1, 1, tzinfo=timezone.utc)
