Convert DATE timestamp to return only the month name in MySQL
To return only the month name, you can use DATE_FORMAT() −
mysql> create table DemoTable1999 ( ArrivalDate timestamp ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.66 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable1999 values('2019-01-01 12:34:00'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1999 values('2019-12-31 10:04:00'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1999 values('2018-10-11 04:04:30'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select * from DemoTable1999;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------------+ | ArrivalDate | +---------------------+ | 2019-01-01 12:34:00 | | 2019-12-31 10:04:00 | | 2018-10-11 04:04:30 | +---------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to return the month name −
mysql> select date_format(ArrivalDate,'%M') as MonthName from DemoTable1999;
This will produce the following output −
+-----------+ | MonthName | +-----------+ | January | | December | | October | +-----------+ 3 rows in set (0.05 sec)
