AttributeError: type object 'datetime.time' has no attribute 'mktime'

python import mktime

I'm getting this attribute error either because I'm importing the modules or else referencing them incorrectly.

from datetime import date, timedelta, datetime, time, tzinfo

with

def utc2local (utc):
    epoch = time.mktime(utc.timetuple())
    offset = datetime.fromtimestamp (epoch) - datetime.utcfromtimestamp (epoch)
    return utc + offset

called by

(utc2local(rise), utc2local(set))

which gives me - AttributeError: type object 'datetime.time' has no attribute 'mktime'

I have changed my imports to 

import time
from datetime import date, timedelta, datetime, tzinfo

but I get - TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

How should I be calling the modules or what should I be using to reference them, thanks

you don't need to import datetime Just do it:

import time
time.mktime(your_time)

or

from time import mktime
mktime(t)
