How do you remove seconds and milliseconds from a date time string in python

Question

How I can convert a date in format \"2013-03-15 05:14:51.327\" to \"2013-03-15 05:14\", i.e. removing the seconds and milliseconds. I don\'t think

Answer 1

In Robotframework the most straightforward way would be to user Split String From Right from the String library library:

${datestring}=    Set Variable    2019-03-15 05:14:51.327
${parts}=  Split String From Right    ${datestring}    :    max_split=1
# parts is a list of two elements - everything before the last ":", and everything after it
# take the 1st element, it is what we're after
${no seconds}=    Get From List     ${parts}    0
Log    ${no senods}    # 2019-03-15 05:14
