Get only the date in timestamp in MySQL?
In order to get the date from the timestamp, you can use DATE() function from MySQL.
The syntax is as follows −
Syntax
SELECT DATE(yourTimestampColumnName) as anyVariableName from yourTableName;
To understand the above syntax, let us first create a table. The query to create a table is as follows −
mysql> create table DateFromTimestamp -> ( -> ShippingDateTime timestamp -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.60 sec)
Insert date and time for the column ShippingDateTime we created above.
The query to insert record is as follows −
mysql> insert into DateFromTimestamp values('2012-12-26 13:24:35');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec)
mysql> insert into DateFromTimestamp values('2013-11-26 14:36:40');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)
mysql> insert into DateFromTimestamp values('2016-07-22 15:20:10');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec)
mysql> insert into DateFromTimestamp values('2017-11-04 04:25:30');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)Display all records from the table using select command. The query is as follows −
mysql> select *from DateFromTimestamp;
Output
+---------------------+ | ShippingDateTime | +---------------------+ | 2012-12-26 13:24:35 | | 2013-11-26 14:36:40 | | 2016-07-22 15:20:10 | | 2017-11-04 04:25:30 | +---------------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
The following is the query to display only date from a timestamp using date() function −
mysql> select date(ShippingDateTime) as OnlyDatePartFromTimestamp from DateFromTimestamp;
Output
+---------------------------+ | OnlyDatePartFromTimestamp | +---------------------------+ | 2012-12-26 | | 2013-11-26 | | 2016-07-22 | | 2017-11-04 | +---------------------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
