This is straight from the Python 2.7 docs.

>>>import datetime
>>>d = datetime.datetime(2010, 7, 4, 12, 15, 58)
>>> '{:%Y-%m-%d%H:%M:%S}'.format(d)
'2010-07-04 12:15:58'

or in a template ...

Very useful, thanks.
But how can I change the date format also in the admin interface when using DateField?

Hi, I had the same problem. You have to override https://github.com/django/django/tree/master/django/conf/locale that files, depending of language. I made this in that way:

Put in settings.py:

# path to custom localizations formats
FORMAT_MODULE_PATH = 'custom_formats'

 

I attached a zipped structure, to be place into main project dir. It's for english locale. In formats.py You can change some locale formats (https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/conf/locale/en/formats.py).
