I'm selecting rows that have a 'Date' column. The date is formatted like so: 2022-01-08 14:00:00.
So today is: 2022-01-05 11:00, I wish to select every row that has a date beyond today's date.
Is there any way that I can select the rows where the date has not yet passed?
EDIT:
Ergest Basha's comment was just what I was looking for:
Date <= current_timestamp()
You can use:
select * from table_name where date >= now()

I am building out a query to search a table by a timestamp column value. An example of the format I am passing to the api is 2018-10-10. The user has the ability to select a date range. Often times the date range start date is 2018-10-10 and end date is the same day, 2018-10-10. The below doesn't seem to do the trick. What is the simplest way to accomplish this without having to specify the time? Obviously, I'd like to query for the entire day of 2018-10-10 from start to end of day.
SELECT
count(*)
FROM
contact
WHERE
created_at >= '2018-10-10'
AND created_at <= '2018-10-10';
The problem here is that Timestamp datatype will have HH:MM:SS (time) values also. While comparing a datetime with date, MySQL would automatically assume 00:00:00 as HH:MM:SS for the date value.
So, 2018-10-10 12:23:22 will not match the following condition: created_at <= '2018-10-10'; since it would be treated as: 2018-10-10 12:23:22 <= '2018-10-10 00:00:00, which is false
To handle this, you can add one day to the date (date_to in the filter), and use < operator for range checking.
SELECT
count(*)
FROM
contact
WHERE
created_at >= '2018-10-10'
AND created_at < ('2018-10-10' + INTERVAL 1 DAY);
I have the following data in the table
from_date to_date
2015-05-12 2015-10-20
2015-10-21 2016-02-02
2016-02-03 NULL
Where NULL value in to_date denotes that this record is valid until this time.
The records I want to retrieve is between '2015-10-30' and '2016-08-08'. How do I get the second and third rows based on my search criteria?
I am confused why are you expecting the second row in the result set. Is it something loose range searching (either by from_date or by to_date)?
You can try something like that:
SELECT
*
FROM your_table
WHERE from_date >= startDate
AND IF(to_date IS NULL, TRUE, to_date <= endDate);
Note: Here startDate and endDate are the dates in your given range.
EDIT:
SELECT
*
FROM your_table
WHERE
'2015-10-30' BETWEEN from_date AND COALESCE(to_date,CURDATE())
OR
'2016-08-08' BETWEEN from_date AND COALESCE(to_date,CURDATE())
Finally, I found out what I was looking for.
select * from table where
end_date >= start_search && start_date <= end_search

The dates in my database are stored as varchars instead of date formats due to the way it was first built.
The dates look like this:
e.g. 1/3/2015 and
10/3/2015
I'm trying:
"SELECT COUNT(*) n FROM tracker WHERE TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE(date, '%d/%m/%Y'))<=NOW()"
However, that's not working. It is returning the count of all records, regardless of the date.
How can I count only the records where the date is today or in the past?
You do not need TIMESTAMP():
SELECT COUNT(*) as n
FROM tracker
WHERE STR_TO_DATE(date, '%d/%m/%Y') <= NOW()
You should pay attention to the functions STR_TO_DATE and NOW(), the first return a date, the second is a timestamp.
When you convert STR_TO_DATE(date, '%d/%m/%Y') you will get a date with hours, minutes and seconds as 00:00:00
Using CURRENT_DATE perhaps will match more closely the original requirements
SELECT COUNT(*) as n
FROM tracker
WHERE STR_TO_DATE(date, '%d/%m/%Y') <= CURRENT_DATE
Also I suggest you to rename the column 'date'
How can I get the rows in a table where today's date is between (inclusive) two DATE columns of that row?
For example, take these two columns of a table:
How could I get the first and second rows on the 10th of April, or the 3rd row on the 25th (inclusive, like I said)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
You can add a condition as follows
DATE(NOW()) between date1 and date2
You will find a lot of people using between operator, but I prefer using a simple AND operator.
I do that because although the between operator IS inclusive, simple dates (2012-04-10) can be counted as being midnight, and will thus not be inclusive.
So this should work just fine and will always include the boundaries of the date range:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE from_date <= '2012-04-10' AND to_date >= '2012-04-10'
Just use the SQL now() function to compare the date columns like so:
SELECT * from table where now() >= from_date and now() <= to_date
If you have date (not datetime) columns, use CURTIME() or DATE(NOW()), never NOW() as CesarC correct wrote and you can use BETWEEN.
SELECT * FROM table WHERE CURTIME() BETWEEN from_date AND to_date
Is it possible to do sql query on what day is today and get the row of today for date column?
So let say today is july 25th, i have database table sales, column name date, date = sales transaction date in timestamp.
i need all row that the sales date is same with current date and also is it possible set value as gmt+5?
This will get you all the rows for today's date:
SELECT * FROM sales
WHERE DATE(NOW()) = DATE(DATE_ADD(sales_transaction, INTERVAL 5 HOUR))
ORDER BY sales_transaction
As for GMT +5, Do you mean all rows with a sales date +5 hours or today +5 hours?
EDIT: Updated to add 5 hours to sales date. For a column called date, I would use the back-ticks to indicate it's a column name. e.g. SELECT `date`` FROM sales
I can't figure out how to work the back-ticks on the date field. But you should get the idea. Wrap your column names with `
Give some time and Check out Date Time Function of mySQL
SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE salesdate = '1998-1-1';
If your date is stored in GMT timezone
Select *
FROM tablename
WHERE DATE_ADD(NOW(), INTERVAL 5 HOUR) = salesdate
SELECT * FROM `sales` WHERE DAYOFMONTH(FROM_UNIXTIME(date)) = DAYOFMONTH(DATE(now()))
seems working.
Thank you for all of your replies.
