How to filter a specific month in MySQL when date is in varchar?
To filter, you can use STR_TO_DATE() function from MySQL. With that, use MONTH() to get the date from the specific month. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable -> ( -> DueDate varchar(100) -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.18 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('06-19-2019');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.36 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('01-31-2018');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.38 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('12-01-2016');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
Output
This will produce the following output −
+------------+ | DueDate | +------------+ | 06-19-2019 | | 01-31-2018 | | 12-01-2016 | +------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to filter month in MySQL when date is in varchar −
mysql> select *from DemoTable -> where month(str_to_date(DueDate, '%m-%d-%Y')) = 06;
Output
This will produce the following output −
+------------+ | DueDate | +------------+ | 06-19-2019 | +------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
