I am writing a cron job that will need to pull out the current days records. In my table I have a column called modify_date which is a unix time stamp, in format of 1/29/2011 9:59:47 AM
What would be the sql for the current date so it chooses the date part only and give current dats results accordingly.
thanks
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE DATE(modify_date) = CURDATE();
you can have a check
WHERE data > '1/29/2011 00:00:01' and date < '1/29/2011 23:59:59'

I have SQL structure like Name,expire_date,_expire_time
and I want the query to fetch records before the current date and time.
and for that, I have used
SELECT *
FROM table_name
WHERE expire_date <= CURDATE() AND expire_time <= CURTIME()
and I have received data like this image
as per this, I have received date before today like 2020-02-04 but with that, I have received data of 2020-02-03 because its time is before execution time
but I want data before the current date and time can anybody help me with this
You need to create a DATETIME value out of your DATE and TIME values (which you can do using TIMESTAMP), and then compare that to NOW() e.g.
SELECT *
FROM table_name
WHERE TIMESTAMP(expire_date, expire_time) <= NOW()
You can use
DATEDIFF
SELECT * FROM test WHERE DATEDIFF(expiry_date,CURDATE())>=0 AND expiry_time <= CURTIME();
Output
2020-02-04 05:00:00
2020-02-04 02:53:46
I am trying to select everything from my table with today's date. But I found that that date column is in unix time stamp. So, how do I select everything with today's date? or for example only yesterday's ? If it was normal date instead of unix time it would be easy, but... here is what I have put for my query so far..
$ann_renewal_query = "SELECT * FROM annual_renewal WHERE due_date '%$today%' order BY due_date ASC";
You just need to convert the values to the unix timestamp version. The best way is to convert the current time to Unix timestamp:
where due_date >= UNIX_TIMESTAMP(curdate()) and
due_date < UNIX_TIMESTAMP(date_add(curdate(), interval 1 day)
This version of the query allows it to take advantage of an index on due_date.
I have a table with field Timestamp(DateTime format). I need to get elements that are entered on the current date. Kindly suggest me a way/query to do so. How to fetch current current date out of the timestamp and compare it with current date via query. HELP!!!
You can use the function curdate() function
select * from table_name where date(col_name) = curdate();
Or even better when you have large volume of data and the timestamp column is index and you want index to take into account which will not when you use date() function you can do as
select *
from table_name
where col_name between concat(curdate(),' 00:00:00') and concat(curdate(),' 23:59:59');
I am trying to select records from a database only if they match today's date. The format for the date in the database is 2012-06-20 9:30:00 I am using the statement SELECT id FROMnewsreportsWHERE DATE(newsdate) = CURDATE() but it doesn't not return any records for today?

DATE_FORMAT(NOW(),'%Y-%m-%d') = FORMAT_DATE(NOW(newsdate), '%Y-%m-%d')
Or better:
DATE(newsdate) = DATE(NOW())
The best way is to store the additional column with 2001-09-11 date format and compare this one
Example, thanks to #Conrad Frix
It looks like the curdate function is going to give you something different than the date format you've got in the database.
Take a look at the docs here
MySQL Date and Time Functions
It's supposed to return a date in this format:
2008-11-11
So, you could either search for a date range between curdate() and curdate() + INTERVAL 1 DAY (untested), or store the dates in the curdate() format.
I'm trying to build a query where it will return all rows from today's date, but only up to this point in time of the day.
E.G.
If it's 12.30pm, I'd like it to return all rows with the date from 00:00 to 12:30 on today's date, but nothing after 12:30, or whatever time is when the scrips is run
DATE(expression) removes the time and NOW() includes the current time:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE iDate > DATE(NOW()) and iDate < NOW()
have you tried:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE date < TODAY && date > DAYBEFORE
something like this should work fine for timestamp saved dates. Not sure about DATE formated values
You can specify a starting timestamp and an ending timestamp:
where created >= timestamp_start && created < timestamp_end
Note that my answer assumes you're using some server side programming language to run these sql queries, and thus you would be passing a variable into timestamp_start and timestamp_end. time format: use Unix Timestamp
