如何使用MySQL获取最新日期

Question

How can I get the most recent date using MySQL? I tried max but I did not get the result that I want. My table looks like this:

+---------+---------+-----------------------+--------+------------+---------+
| Name    | idStore | Name                  | idItem | date       | price   |
+---------+---------+-----------------------+--------+------------+---------+
| walmart |       1 | Red Delicious Apples  |      1 | 2011-10-22 | 0.98000 |

I am having hard time figuring this out. Thanks!

Answer 1

You can use group by:

select NameStore, idStore, Name, idItem, max(date) date, price
from table
group by NameStore, idStore, Name, idItem, price

Answer 2

Online Example Query

http://data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/q/118881/how-can-i-get-the-most-resent-date-using-mysql

SELECT NameStore, idStore, Name, idItem, max(date) AS date, price
FROM tablename
GROUP by NameStore, idStore, Name, idItem, price
ORDER BY date DESC, idItem ASC

Answer 3

See SQL Select only rows with Max Value on a Column

SELECT yt1.*
FROM yourtable yt1
LEFT OUTER JOIN yourtable yt2 ON (yt1.idItem = yt2.idItem AND yt1.date < yt2.date)
WHERE yt2.idItem IS NULL;

Answer 4

put this at the end ORDER BY date DESC

So make it look like this:

SELECT * FROM `tablename` ORDER BY `date` DESC

Using DISTINCT(Name) or GROUP BY Name in the SQL sentence above, would make one item pop up only once.

Answer 5

You have to use the GROUP BY clause like this:

SELECT Name, idStore, Name, idItem, date, price 
FROM mytable 
GROUP BY idItem 
ORDER BY date DESC, idItem DESC;

Change the order direction using DESC or ASC. You can learn more about this reading the documentation.
