How to generate datetime for every minute on a given day in Python

This example code generates a timezone-aware datetime for every minute (the seconds are always set to 0) for a given day in a given timezone.

First, install the UliEngineering library and pytz for timezones:

install_uliengineering.sh
pip install --user UliEngineering pytz

Now you can use UliEngineering.Utils.Date.yield_minutes_on_day():

yield_minutes_example.py
from UliEngineering.Utils.Date import *

for minute in yield_minutes_on_day(year=2022, month=6, day=15, tz=pytz.timezone("Europe/Berlin"):
    pass # TODO: Your code goes here

Or, if you want to have a list of datetime instances instead of a generator:

yield_minutes_list_example.txt
from UliEngineering.Utils.Date import *

minutes = list(yield_minutes_on_day(year=2022, month=6, day=15, tz=pytz.timezone("Europe/Berlin")))
