I need to SELECT all records that are 30 days old. I have the code below but it's not working. In updatestatus I have dates like 12/26/2011. I create a 30 day old date like
$onemonthago="01/01/2012";
$sth = $dbh->prepare(qq(
SELECT *
FROM people
WHERE STR_TO_DATE (updatestatus,'%m/%d/%y')
<= STR_TO_DATE ( "$onemonthago",'%m/%d/%Y')
) );
If the datatype of updatestatus is date:
SELECT *
FROM people
WHERE updatestatus <= '2012-01-01'
or:
SELECT *
FROM people
WHERE updatestatus <= CURRENT_DATE() - INTERVAL 1 MONTH
If the datatype is datetime or timestamp and you want to check the time part, too:
SELECT *
FROM people
WHERE updatestatus <= NOW() - INTERVAL 1 MONTH
You can put an exact datetime instead of the NOW() - INTERVAL 1 MONTH. The correct way depends on how you are storing the datetimes or timestamps (does the Perl code or MySQL creates them in the first place?).
You could also put - INTERVAL 30 DAY which yield slightly different results.
This is what I used. Very simple
$sth = $dbh->prepare(qq(SELECT * FROM people WHERE updatestatus + INTERVAL 30 DAY <= NOW() )) or die $DBI::errstr;
If the time column is in timestamp then use below query.(use from_unixtime function)
SELECT wd.* FROM `watchdog` as wd
WHERE from_unixtime(wd.timestamp) <= NOW() - INTERVAL 1 MONTH
You can try this way. In SQL, there is dateadd function and I think there should be similar function in MySQL.
select *
from Table
where str_to_date between dateadd(day,-30,getdate()) and getdate()
It retrieve records between current date and past 30 days. You need to adjust for time. If you don't count time, you need to remove timestamp.

I have a table called barcode_log, and these are all the datas from the table.
And now if I run this query
SELECT * FROM `barcode_log` WHERE barcode_log.assign_time BETWEEN DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE, INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND CURRENT_DATE;
I get this result
But it should return all the rows as all the data is within this month only. And assign_time field is stored as datetime. Any idea what i am doing wrong??
You are ignoring the time part (hh:mm:ss).
If the end day is set to the end timestamp of the current date then you can get the data of current day's too.
BETWEEN is inclusive
SELECT
*
FROM
`barcode_log`
WHERE
barcode_log.assign_time BETWEEN DATE_SUB(
CURRENT_DATE,
INTERVAL 30 DAY
)
AND TIMESTAMP(CONCAT(CURDATE(),' ','23:59:59'));
While the accepted answer works, there is a simpler solution. Just take the date part of the datetime column:
SELECT
*
FROM
`barcode_log`
WHERE
DATE(barcode_log.assign_time)
BETWEEN DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE, INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND CURRENT_DATE;
There is another way around: CAST() on barcode_log.assign_time field.
SELECT *
FROM `barcode_log`
WHERE CAST(barcode_log.assign_time AS DATE)
BETWEEN DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE, INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND CURRENT_DATE;
This excludes time from comparison and works fine for your purpose.
I have this query
SELECT * FROM `timeclock_timecard`
WHERE `clock_in_datetime` > DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
which can get record in the last day but I need to limit to records created after 7AM
Any help please?
SELECT * FROM `timeclock_timecard`
WHERE `clock_in_datetime` > DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
and hour(`clock_in_datetime`) > 7;
Added one more filter condition to check for the hour.
Your query was almost correct, because CURDATE() only gives the date you can just subtract 17 hours to get the correct result. fiddle.
SELECT * FROM `timeclock_timecard`
WHERE `clock_in_datetime` >= DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 17 HOUR)
To get the entries of the current day, we can add 7 hours (CURDATE() has time 0:00).
SELECT * FROM `timeclock_timecard`
WHERE `clock_in_datetime` >= DATE_ADD(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 7 HOUR)
To get only rows from yesterday, with a time value of 7AM or later, we can add 7 hours to the expression.
If we only up until midnight of today (just rows from yesterday), we can add another condition, the datetime is less than midnight today.
For example:
SELECT t.*
FROM `timeclock_timecard` t
WHERE t.`clock_in_datetime` >= DATE(NOW()) + INTERVAL -1 DAY + INTERVAL 7 HOUR
AND t.`clock_in_datetime` < DATE(NOW())
If you want to exclude the exact 7:00:00 AM value, change the >= to just >.
FOLLOWUP
Q: What I actually want is between about 5-6am TODAY and mindnight TODAY so anytime during today that I run the report for today I will get only timeclock data from users who clocked in/out today only and not include yesterdays data.
A: The predicates are going to be of the form
WHERE t.`clock_in_datetime` >= expr1
AND t.`clock_in_datetime` < expr2
You just need to find the expressions expr1 and expr2 that return the appropriate datetime values.
Just use a simple SELECT statement to test:
SELECT DATE(NOW()) + INTERVAL 5 HOUR AS `start`
, DATE(NOW()) + INTERVAL 1 DAY AS `end`
Q: I also modified my select to take in account my datetime is in UTC and my result needs to get todays records using local timezone.
SELECT * , CONVERT_TZ( clock_in_datetime , '+00:00', '-4:00' ) FROM `timeclock_timecard`
A: Personally, I would do the timezone conversion on the exprN values, not the column values. Having predicates on bare columns allows MySQL to make effective use of an index; wrapping the columns in expressions prevents MySQL from using an index.
If the MySQL system clock is UTC, and your datetime values stored in the table are in a different timezone, yes, use the MySQL CONVERT_TZ function.
Again, using a simple SELECT statement to develop and test the expressions:
SELECT CONVERT_TZ( DATE(NOW()) + INTERVAL 5 HOUR, '+0:00', to_tz) AS `start`
, CONVERT_TZ( DATE(NOW()) + INTERVAL 1 DAY , '+0:00', to_tz) AS `end`
Where to_tz is the timezone of the values in the table.
Once you get expressions start and end returning the values you need, then use those expressions in the predicates of the query of the timecard table.
I'm working on a project where I want to display data after 3 days have passed.
What I'm having an issue with is getting the current date dynamically in php/sql. I'm aware of how to get the current date in php, but I dont know how to compare that value to the date that I have in the sql database.
You can do that directly in SQL
select * from your_table
where date_column <= curdate() - interval 3 day
You can use an interval select to limit the records to within 3 days if the column you're checking istimestamp, date, or datetime.
select * from tablename where timestamp_column >= NOW() - INTERVAL 3 DAY
You can use DATEDIFF function to check for days.
SELECT *
FROM tablename
WHERE DATEDIFF(CURRENT_DATE(), datecol) >= 3;
In my SQL query how do i find records in the last 24 hours?
I am using time() function for inserting into db.
I am using time-stamp the time is stored in this format.Eg 1332673046
select somefield from yourtable where timefield >= subtime(current_timestamp(), '1 00:00:00');
You can use BETWEEN
SELECT * FROM users
WHERE created_at BETWEEN '2012-03-31 00:00:00 UTC' AND '2012-03-31 23:59:59 UTC'
I am not certain if you are looking to check within the same calendar day, or as you say within the past 24 hours, so here's what I usually do for both cases:
a) For the same calendar day:
CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), myTable.myDate, 112) = CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 112)
b) For the date to be within the past 24 hours (inclusive)
DATEDIFF(hour, myTable.myDate, GETDATE()) <= 24
Simple DATE arithmetic would do,
SELECT *
FROM `table1`
WHERE `time_col` BETWEEN NOW() AND NOW()- INTERVAL 24 HOURS;
Given that you are storing dates as unix timestamps then you need UNIX_TIMESTAMP like this
SELECT
// fields you need
FROM `table`
WHERE
`date_field` BETWEEN UNIX_TIMESTAMP( DATE_SUB(NOW() INTERVAL 24 HOUR) ) AND UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
You might want to consider storing dates in MySQLs DATETIME format as it makes date calculations in MySQL much easier.
How to select data from mysql table past date to current date? For example, Select data from 1 january 2009 until current date ??
My column "datetime" is in datetime date type. Please help, thanks
Edit:
If let say i want to get day per day data from 1 january 2009, how to write the query? Use count and between function?
select * from *table_name* where *datetime_column* between '01/01/2009' and curdate()
or using >= and <= :
select * from *table_name* where *datetime_column* >= '01/01/2009' and *datetime_column* <= curdate()
All the above works, and here is another way if you just want to number of days/time back rather a entering date
select * from *table_name* where *datetime_column* BETWEEN DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND NOW()
You can use now() like:
Select data from tablename where datetime >= "01-01-2009 00:00:00" and datetime <= now();
Late answer, but the accepted answer didn't work for me.
If you set both start and end dates manually (not using curdate()), make sure to specify the hours, minutes and seconds (2019-12-02 23:59:59) on the end date or you won't get any results from that day, i.e.:
This WILL include records from 2019-12-02:
SELECT *SOMEFIELDS* FROM *YOURTABLE* where *YOURDATEFIELD* between '2019-12-01' and '2019-12-02 23:59:59'
This WON'T include records from 2019-12-02:
SELECT *SOMEFIELDS* FROM *YOURTABLE* where *YOURDATEFIELD* between '2019-12-01' and '2019-12-02'
