creating trigger inserting UNIX_TIMESTAMP() to a log table - mysql

Question

Hi im stuck on the syntax of making this trigger to insert values to my log table. Using the sql tab inside phpmyadmin an error appears before executing the sql statement
`#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 8 `
here is my sql statement in creating a trigger
CREATE TRIGGER after_insert_list
AFTER INSERT ON list FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO log (user_id, action, date_log)
VALUES (
NEW.user_id,
NEW.action,
UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
);
END

Answer 1

Create your trigger like follows:
delimiter |
CREATE TRIGGER testref
BEFORE INSERT ON test1FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
INSERT INTO test2 SET a2 = NEW.a1;
DELETE FROM test3 WHERE a3 = NEW.a1;
UPDATE test4 SET b4 = b4 + 1 WHERE a4 = NEW.a1;
END;
|
delimiter ;

Answer 2

Here is a 100% working example:
Table demo
CREATE TABLE `demo` (
`id` int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`text` varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci DEFAULT NULL,
`updated_at` int NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
Trigger on INSERT
DELIMITER ;;
CREATE TRIGGER `updated_at__on_insert`
BEFORE INSERT
ON `demo`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SET new.updated_at = UNIX_TIMESTAMP();
END;;
DELIMITER ;
Trigger on UPDATE
DELIMITER ;;
CREATE TRIGGER `updated_at__on_update`
BEFORE UPDATE
ON `demo`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SET new.updated_at = UNIX_TIMESTAMP();
END;;
DELIMITER ;
p.s. I was looking for such a solution for my CMS EFFCORE.
