Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable845(AdmissionDate date); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.10 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable845 values('2018-01-21'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable845 values('2016-12-12'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable845 values('2019-08-05'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.44 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable845 values('2019-10-15'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable845;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------+ | AdmissionDate | +---------------+ | 2018-01-21 | | 2016-12-12 | | 2019-08-05 | | 2019-10-15 | +---------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to convert YYYY-MM-DD to DD Month, YYYY date format −
mysql> select date_format(AdmissionDate,'%e %M, %Y') from DemoTable845;
This will produce the following output −
+----------------------------------------+ | date_format(AdmissionDate,'%e %M, %Y') | +----------------------------------------+ | 21 January, 2018 | | 12 December, 2016 | | 5 August, 2019 | | 15 October, 2019 | +----------------------------------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
