How can we create a MySQL recurring event that executes after a specified time period and ends after a specified time period?


As we know that recurring event means that it will be executed after regular time of interval and expires at the specified time. To illustrate the creation of such kind of events we are using the following example in which we are creating an event which will execute after every minute and expires after one hour −

mysql> CREATE EVENT testing_event10 ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 MINUTE STARTS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ENDS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR DO INSERT INTO event_message(message,generated_at) Values('Recrring evnts',NOW());
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> Select * from event_message;
+----+----------------+---------------------+
| ID | MESSAGE        | Generated_at        |
