python get current month

from datetime import datetime

current_month = datetime.now().strftime('%m') // 02 //This is 0 padded
current_month_text = datetime.now().strftime('%h') // Feb
current_month_text = datetime.now().strftime('%B') // February

current_day = datetime.now().strftime('%d')   // 23 //This is also padded
current_day_text = datetime.now().strftime('%a')  // Fri
current_day_full_text = datetime.now().strftime('%A')  // Friday

current_weekday_day_of_today = datetime.now().strftime('%w') //5  Where 0 is Sunday and 6 is Saturday.

current_year_full = datetime.now().strftime('%Y')  // 2018
current_year_short = datetime.now().strftime('%y')  // 18 without century

current_second= datetime.now().strftime('%S') //53
current_minute = datetime.now().strftime('%M') //38
current_hour = datetime.now().strftime('%H') //16 like 4pm
current_hour = datetime.now().strftime('%I') // 04 pm

current_hour_am_pm = datetime.now().strftime('%p') // 4 pm

current_microseconds = datetime.now().strftime('%f') // 623596 Rarely we need.

current_timzone = datetime.now().strftime('%Z') // UTC, EST, CST etc. (empty string if the object is naive).

python get current month

Use:

from datetime import datetime
today = datetime.today()
datem = datetime(today.year, today.month, 1)
I assume you want the first of the month.
