MySQL query to get next closest day between two days?
Following is the syntax −
select * from yourTableName order by ( yourColumnName> now()) desc, (case when yourColumnName > now() then yourColumnName end) , yourColumnName desc limit 1;
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable1454 -> ( -> ShippingDate date -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.59 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable1454 values('2019-10-01'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.22 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1454 values('2019-10-03'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.25 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1454 values('2019-10-05'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.25 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1454 values('2019-10-04'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1454 values('2018-10-06'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1454 values('2019-10-06'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select * from DemoTable1454;
This will produce the following output −
+--------------+ | ShippingDate | +--------------+ | 2019-10-01 | | 2019-10-03 | | 2019-10-05 | | 2019-10-04 | | 2018-10-06 | | 2019-10-06 | +--------------+ 6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
The current date is as follows −
mysql> select now(); +---------------------+ | now() | +---------------------+ | 2019-10-04 21:30:01 | +---------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to get next closest day between two days −
mysql> select * from DemoTable1454 -> order by ( ShippingDate > now()) desc, -> (case when ShippingDate > now() then ShippingDate end) , -> ShippingDate desc -> limit 1;
This will produce the following output −
+--------------+ | ShippingDate | +--------------+ | 2019-10-05 | +--------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
