Format date with DATE_FORMAT() and STR_TO_DATE() in MySQL
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable ( DueDate varchar(100) ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.62 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('August 04,2019'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.25 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+----------------+ | DueDate | +----------------+ | August 04,2019 | +----------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to format date −
mysql> set @stringToDate=(select date_format(str_to_date(DueDate, '%M %d,%Y'), '%Y-%m-%d') from DemoTable); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.02 sec)
Let us use a select statement to display the date −
mysql> select @stringToDate;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------+ | @stringToDate | +---------------+ | 2019-08-04 | +---------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
