How can I get diff in seconds between two string datetime fields on server script. After this I want to use the method frappe.utils.format_duration() to get this different in a pretty way.

@heavyweb

 first_date=frappe.utils.get_datetime("2023-01-01")
 second_date=frappe.utils.get_datetime("2023-01-24")
 diff=frappe.utils.time_diff_in_seconds(second_date,first_date) 
 pretty=frappe.utils.format_duration(diff)
