pyarrow.compute.strptime

pyarrow.compute.strptime(strings, /, format, unit, error_is_null=False, *, options=None, memory_pool=None)

Parse timestamps.

For each string in strings, parse it as a timestamp. The timestamp unit and the expected string pattern must be given in StrptimeOptions. Null inputs emit null. If a non-null string fails parsing, an error is returned by default.

Parameters

stringsArray-like or scalar-like

Argument to compute function.

formatstr

Pattern for parsing input strings as timestamps, such as “%Y/%m/%d”.

unitstr

Timestamp unit of the output. Accepted values are “s”, “ms”, “us”, “ns”.

error_is_nullbool, default False

Return null on parsing errors if true or raise if false.

optionspyarrow.compute.StrptimeOptions, optional

Alternative way of passing options.

memory_poolpyarrow.MemoryPool, optional

If not passed, will allocate memory from the default memory pool.
