如何在mysql查询中插入今天的日期？

Question

I'm using PHP and MySQL. My sql query is as follows:

INSERT INTO ocn.newsletter
            (newsletter_name,
             newsletter_subject,
             newsletter_email_body,
             newsletter_call_to_action_status,
             newsletter_call_to_action_text,
             newsletter_call_to_action_link,
             newsletter_created_date)
VALUE      ('Ramzan ID',
            'Ramzan Greetings',
            'Happy Ramzan Eid to All',
            '0',
            '',
            '',
            From_unixtime(Curdate()) )  

I want to store todays date in UNIX Timestamp format. If I execute above query I'm getting 1970 stored into the table. Actually I want to store UNIX timestamp equivalent of today's date. Can anyone help me in this regard? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Use NOW() function in your my sql query

NOW() , CURDATE() , CURTIME()

Answer 2

NOW() usually works in SQL statements / queries and returns the date and time.

INSERT INTO ocn.newsletter
            (newsletter_name,
             newsletter_subject,
             newsletter_email_body,
             newsletter_call_to_action_status,
             newsletter_call_to_action_text,
             newsletter_call_to_action_link,
             newsletter_created_date)
VALUES      ('Ramzan ID',
            'Ramzan Greetings',
            'Happy Ramzan Eid to All',
            '0',
            '',
            '',
            NOW() )  

Alternatively, you can also use the PHP's built-in time() function.

$timestamp = time(); //1374821956

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

You just have to use unix_timestamp() function in order to achieve this. This will automatically insert UNIX timstamp equivalent for todays date. The corrected query will be as follows: INSERT INTO OCN.newsletter(newsletter_name, newsletter_subject, newsletter_email_body, newsletter_call_to_action_status, newsletter_call_to_action_text, newsletter_call_to_action_link, newsletter_created_date) VALUE('Ramzan ID', 'Ramzan Greetings', 'Happy Ramzan Eid to All', '0', '', '', unix_timestamp())

Answer 4

INSERT INTO OCN.newsletter(newsletter_name, newsletter_subject, newsletter_email_body, newsletter_call_to_action_status, newsletter_call_to_action_text, newsletter_call_to_action_link, newsletter_created_date) VALUE('Ramzan ID', 'Ramzan Greetings', 'Happy Ramzan Eid to All', '0', '', '', NOW())

如果使用MYSQL，则可以将默认值“ newsletter_created_date”设置为TIMESTAMP，并且在执行插入操作时，将自动设置TIMESTAMP

Answer 5

Try this

$query_auto = "INSERT INTO tablename (col_name, col_date) VALUE ('DATE: Auto CURDATE()', CURDATE() )";

Answer 6

I would use this.

  $sDate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
  mysql_query("insert into `ocn.newsletter` set `newsletter_created_date` = '$sDate'");
