How to select all records that are 10 minutes within current timestamp in MySQL?


You can select all records that are 10 minutes within current timestamp using the following syntax−

SELECT *FROM yourTableName
WHERE yourColumnName > = DATE_SUB(NOW(),INTERVAL 10 MINUTE);

To understand the above syntax, let us create a table. The query to create a table is as follows−

mysql> create table users
   -> (
   -> Id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
   -> UserName varchar(20),
   -> UserLastseen datetime,
   -> PRIMARY KEY(Id)
   -> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.91 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows−

mysql> insert into users(UserName,UserLastseen) values('Larry','2019-01-15 02−45−00');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)

mysql> insert into users(UserName,UserLastseen) values('Sam',now());
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.25 sec)

mysql> insert into users(UserName,UserLastseen) values('Mike','2019-01-15 02−30−00');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)

mysql> insert into users(UserName,UserLastseen) values('Bob','2019-01-15 15−02−00');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.23 sec)

mysql> insert into users(UserName,UserLastseen) values('David','2019-01-15 14−55−00');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)

Display all records from the table using select statement. The query is as follows−

mysql> select *from users;

The following is the output−

+----+----------+---------------------+
| Id | UserName | UserLastseen        |
+----+----------+---------------------+
|  1 | Larry    | 2019-01-15 02−45−00 |
|  2 | Sam | 2019-01-15 15−01−52 |
|  3 | Mike | 2019-01-15 02−30−00 |
|  4 | Bob | 2019-01-15 15−02−00 |
|  5 | David | 2019-01-15 14−55−00 |
+----+----------+---------------------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Here is the query to select all records that are 10 minutes within the current timestamp−

mysql> select *from users
   -> where UserLastseen> = date_sub(now(),interval 10 minute);

The following is the output−

+----+----------+---------------------+
| Id | UserName | UserLastseen        |
+----+----------+---------------------+
|  2 | Sam      | 2019-01-15 15−01−52 |
|  4 | Bob      | 2019-01-15 15−02−00 |
|  5 | David    | 2019-01-15 14−55−00 |
+----+----------+---------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
