I've been dealing with this since yestertay.
The thing is I am migrating my queries to jOOQ and I got stuck when I tried to implement this part:
select * from table where condition1 and date1 >= date_sub(now(), interval 1 days)
Specifically this part of the condition: date_sub(now(), interval 1 days) with jOOQ.
So my questions are:
Which functions should I use from jOOQ to represent date_sub?
How do I implement interval X days with jOOQ?
To clarify, the dates are of the type Timestamp
Thanks in advance!
The solution:
Being slightly biased towards the Oracle database, jOOQ implements adding / subtracting day intervals simply by using:
// Java
DSL.currentTimestamp().sub(1);
The above renders:
-- Oracle
sysdate - 1
-- MySQL
date_add(current_timestamp(), interval -1 day)
Of course, you can also access the date_add()
function directly, if you prefer that:
// Java
DSL.dateAdd(DSL.currentTimestamp(), -1);
Some documentation:
- The manual's section about date time arithmetic
- The manual's section about interval data types
Field.add()
