29-AUG-12 06.06.32.000000000 PM,DD-MON-RR HH.MI.SS.FF AM
Thanx in advance..
You can try a solution like this according to format date is coming and in which format you want to convert
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(STR_TO_DATE('14 Aug 2014 07:46:17:000000', '%d %b %Y %T:%f'),'%d-%m-%Y %h:%i %p') AS T
output- 14-08-2014 07:46 AM

I have date on MySQL table on the format of Fri Oct 30 09:50:37 2015, when I try to format using DATE_FORMAT(delv_time,'%Y-%m-%d') it return null.
That's not as date as far as MySQL is concerned. That's a string. You need to convert it into a date using STR_TO_DATE(). Then you can use DATE_FORMAT() to get only the date portion of the datetime.
DATE_FORMAT(STR_TO_DATE(delv_time,'%a %b %d %T %Y'),'%Y-%m-%d')
select COUNT(DISTINCT devices) AS "Devices" from measure_tab where
measure_tab.time >= 1375243200 and
measure_tab.time < 1375315200;
The output of the above sql query gives a table with a column named "Devices" with number of devices. I want the time which is one of the attributes of measure_tab should also get displayed in another column of the output table with the UNIX TIME which is 1375243200 in this query converted into the SQL datetime format which is Thu Aug 1 00:00:00 UTC 2013.
Can someone help me out?
Thanks
You can use function as below:
select FROM_UNIXTIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(),'%a %b %d %H:%i:%s UTC %Y');
output will be:
'Wed Feb 05 05:36:16 UTC 2014'
In your query
select COUNT(DISTINCT devices) AS "Devices",
FROM_UNIXTIME(measure_tab.time,'%a %b %d %H:%i:%s UTC %Y') as d from measure_tab where
measure_tab.time >= 1375243200 and
measure_tab.time < 1375315200;
For more info you can check documentation: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/date-and-time-functions.html#function_from-unixtime
You can see sql fiddle:http://sqlfiddle.com/#!2/a2581/20357
In Mysql you can use from_unixtime() function to convert unix timestamp to Date:
select COUNT(DISTINCT devices) AS "Devices" from measure_tab where
measure_tab.time >= from_unixtime(1375243200) and
measure_tab.time < from_unixtime(1375315200);
you could use FROM_UNIXTIME inside DATE_FORMAT, but luckily,
FROM_UNIXTIME also accepts a format string, so you could just use it
by itself
Like this
SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(),'%Y %D %M %h:%i:%s %x')
DATE_FORMAT(NOW(),'%b %d %Y %h:%i %p')
DATE_FORMAT(NOW(),'%m-%d-%Y')
DATE_FORMAT(NOW(),'%d %b %y')
DATE_FORMAT(NOW(),'%d %b %Y %T:%f')
As detailed in the other answers, FROM_UNIXTIME is the function you are looking for. Please be aware that this implicitly takes into account the local time zone setting on the machine running MySQL.
There's lots of useful information here:
Should MySQL have its timezone set to UTC?
if you need to find out how to check/set the time zone.
Hello all,
This is the format of my my-sql data type "rdate".
Apr 1 2011 01:13:00:000PM
I want to use the order by rdate and i can't make it right order as the data type of rdate is varchar, So i want to convert it to date time , But no success.
I am trying to use date_format(str_to_date(rdate, '%m/%d/%Y'), '%Y%m');
Thanks
Mypixel
Try doing:
ORDER BY str_to_date(rdate,'%M %d %Y %h:%i:%s')
From the docs:
Your Date is in the Following format:
%M Month name (January..December)
%d Day of the month, numeric (00..31)
%Y Year, numeric, four digits
...
You have to tell str_to_date the format that your string is in. This means the way the specific parts of the date are displayed, spaces, etc.
sqlfiddle demo
In your str_to_date function call, you need to specify what the format IS, not what you want it to be. Try this:
str_to_date(rdate, '%M %d %Y %h:%i:%s'));
UPDATE table SET rdate=str_to_date(rdate,'%M %d %Y %h:%i:%s')
Just convert your column for good to datetime.
How do I convert the following format to unix timestamp?
Apr 15 2012 12:00AM
The format I get from DB seems to have AM at the end.
I've tried using the following but it did not work:
CONVERT(DATETIME, Sales.SalesDate, 103) AS DTSALESDATE,
CONVERT(TIMESTAMP, Sales.SalesDate, 103) AS TSSALESDATE
where Sales.SalesDate value is Apr 15 2012 12:00AM
Here's an example of how to convert DATETIME to UNIX timestamp:
SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE('Apr 15 2012 12:00AM', '%M %d %Y %h:%i%p'))
Here's an example of how to change date format:
SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE('Apr 15 2012 12:00AM', '%M %d %Y %h:%i%p')),'%m-%d-%Y %h:%i:%p')
Documentation: UNIX_TIMESTAMP, FROM_UNIXTIME
You will certainly have to use both STR_TO_DATE to convert your date to a MySQL standard date format, and UNIX_TIMESTAMP to get the timestamp from it.
Given the format of your date, something like
UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE(Sales.SalesDate, '%M %e %Y %h:%i%p'))
Will gives you a valid timestamp. Look the STR_TO_DATE documentation to have more information on the format string.
If you want to create a timestamp as returned by java's Date.getTime() you should multiply by 1000.
SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE('Apr 15 2012 12:00AM', '%M %d %Y %h:%i%p'))*1000
Now for a more standard date format use:
SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE('2022-12-14 20:58:00', '%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:%s'))*1000
From http://www.epochconverter.com/
SELECT DATEDIFF(s, '1970-01-01 00:00:00', GETUTCDATE())
My bad, SELECT unix_timestamp(time) Time format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or YYMMDD or YYYYMMDD. More on using timestamps with MySQL:

In my table, dates are stored like this: 2011-03-03T13:30:00
I'm trying to output dates like this: March 3, 2011 1:30 PM
I'd much rather work it into the query rather than use php to format it, but I'm having some difficulty doing that. Trying various iterations of DATE_FORMAT, but it's not giving me what I want, maybe because of the way it's being stored?
You basically have two different operations you may need to perform when handling dates: date to string and vice versa. The functions you can use are DATE_FORMAT() and STR_TO_DATE(). Full reference can be found in the manual.
Usage example:
SELECT
DATE_FORMAT(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, '%d/%m/%Y %H:%i:%s'),
STR_TO_DATE('31/12/2001 23:55:00', '%d/%m/%Y %H:%i:%s')
If your dates are not real dates but strings, you'll need to convert twice: from string to date and again from date to string:
SELECT
STR_TO_DATE('2011-03-03T13:30:00', '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%i:%s'),
DATE_FORMAT(STR_TO_DATE('2011-03-03T13:30:00', '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%i:%s'), '%M %e, %Y %l:%i %p')
Use DATE_FORMAT:
DATE_FORMAT(date, "%M %e, %Y %h:%i %p")
The MySQL date storage format is actually YYYY-MM-DD, but using the str_to_date() and date_format() functions you can accept and generate any date format required.
select DATE_FORMAT(DateTable.MyDate,'%d %b %y')
from DateTable
would return
04 Nov 08
You should really use a DATETIME field for such things (and clean the input on the way in) rather than having to sort this out at the point of output.
Irrespective, you can simply use the DATE_FORMAT function to re-format your field into the format you require, although this might produce some un-expected results on a VARCHAR or CHAR field. (If so, you'll have to use STR_TO_DATE or failing that some various string functions to extract the date bits you require.)
