MySQL: How to add one day to datetime field in query
In my table I have a field named eventdate
in datetime
format like 2010-05-11 00:00:00
.
How do i make a query so that it adds one day to the eventdate
eg if today is 2010-05-11
, i want to show in where
clause to return all records with tomorrow's date.
Update:
I tried this:
select * from fab_scheduler where custid = 1334666058 and DATE_ADD(eventdate, INTERVAL 1 DAY)
But unfortunately it returns the same record even if i add an interval greater than 1.
Result:
2010-05-12 00:00:00
But i only want to select records with tomorrow's date.
Solution 1:
You can use the DATE_ADD()
function:
... WHERE DATE(DATE_ADD(eventdate, INTERVAL -1 DAY)) = CURRENT_DATE
It can also be used in the SELECT
statement:
SELECT DATE_ADD('2010-05-11', INTERVAL 1 DAY) AS Tomorrow;
+------------+
| Tomorrow |
+------------+
| 2010-05-12 |
+------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Solution 2:
It`s possible to use MySQL specific syntax sugar:
SELECT ... date_field + INTERVAL 1 DAY
Looks much more pretty instead of DATE_ADD function
Solution 3:
Have a go with this, as this is how I would do it :)
SELECT *
FROM fab_scheduler
WHERE custid = '123456'
AND CURDATE() = DATE(DATE_ADD(eventdate, INTERVAL 1 DAY))
Solution 4:
If you are able to use NOW() this would be simplest form:
SELECT * FROM `fab_scheduler` WHERE eventdate>=(NOW() - INTERVAL 1 DAY)) AND eventdate<NOW() ORDER BY eventdate DESC;
With MySQL 5.6+ query abowe should do. Depending on sql server, You may be required to use CURRDATE()
instead of NOW()
- which is alias for DATE(NOW())
and will return only date part of datetime
data type;
