modin.pandas.DatetimeIndex.strftime

DatetimeIndex.strftime(date_format: str) → ndarray[object_][source]

Convert to Index using specified date_format.

Return an Index of formatted strings specified by date_format, which supports the same string format as the python standard library. Details of the string format can be found in python string format doc.

Formats supported by the C strftime API but not by the python string format doc (such as “%%R”, “%%r”) are not officially supported and should be preferably replaced with their supported equivalents (such as “%%H:%%M”, “%%I:%%M:%%S %%p”).

Note that PeriodIndex support additional directives, detailed in Period.strftime.

Parameters:

date_format (str) – Date format string (e.g. “%%Y-%%m-%%d”).

NumPy ndarray of formatted strings.

Return type:

ndarray[object]
