MySQL - Insert current date/time?
To insert only date value, use curdate() in MySQL. With that, if you want to get the entire datetime, then you can use now() method.
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table CurDateDemo -> ( -> ArrivalDate datetime -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.74 sec)
Now you can insert only date with the help of curdate() method −
mysql> insert into CurDateDemo values(curdate()); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)
Display the inserted date with the help of select statement. The query is as follows −
mysql> select *from CurDateDemo;
Here is the output −
+---------------------+ | ArrivalDate | +---------------------+ | 2018-11-23 00:00:00 | +---------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Let us now create a table and display the current datetime −
mysql> create table NowDemo -> ( -> ArrivalDate datetime -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.47 sec)
Insert both date and time with the help of now().
The query to insert record is as follows −
mysql> insert into NowDemo values(now()); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)
Let us now check whether the date and time is inserted or not. The query to display records is as follows −
mysql> select *from NowDemo;
The following is the output −
+---------------------+ | ArrivalDate | +---------------------+ | 2018-11-23 17:31:26 | +---------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
