Django DateTimeField no seconds

I'm struggling with one case - I would like to have a field in my data time field model but without seconds etc. just YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM.

I've been trying to do like this, but it doesn't work:

schedule_time = models.DateTimeField(format(['%Y-%m-%d %H:%M']), auto_now_add=True)

Could someone provide me a solution on any example?

I've also been looking for solutions there, but I haven't found anything that would help me.

Set DATETIME_FORMAT in your settings.py as specified in Django docs.

Since you don't want seconds to be displayed, you can choose the below format and update in settings.py :

DATETIME_FORMAT = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M'

When USE_L10N is True, the locale-dictated format has higher precedence and will be applied instead. so you have to also do:

USE_L10N = False

Your settings.py will look like this after making changes:

DATETIME_FORMAT = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M'
USE_L10N = False

You can also manually change the format when saving it with help of datetime module.
