I have a form where people can type in a start and end date, as well as a column name prefix.
In the backend, I want to do something along the lines of
SELECT *, CAST('{{startDate}}' AS TIMESTAMP) AS ({{prefix}} + '_startDate')
Is this possible? Basically, I want to dynamically create the name of the new column. The table is immediately returned to the user, so I don't want to mutate the underlying table itself. Thanks!
You can execute dynamic query that you have prepared by using EXECUTE
keyword, otherwise it is not possible to have dynamic structure of SQL.
Since you are preparing your SQL outside database, you can use something like:
SELECT *, CAST('{{startDate}}' AS TIMESTAMP) AS {{prefix}}_startDate
Assuming that {{prefix}}
is replaced with some string by your template before it is sent to database.
