Format date in MySQL to return MonthName and Year?
Use DATE_FORMAT() and set the specifiers to display only the MonthName and Year. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable ( Id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, AdmissionDate date ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.69 sec)
Insert records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable(AdmissionDate) values('2013-04-21');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(AdmissionDate) values('2014-01-31');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(AdmissionDate) values('2016-09-01');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.12 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(AdmissionDate) values('2018-12-12');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(AdmissionDate) values('2019-04-01');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)Display records from the table using select command −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+----+---------------+ | Id | AdmissionDate | +----+---------------+ | 1 | 2013-04-21 | | 2 | 2014-01-31 | | 3 | 2016-09-01 | | 4 | 2018-12-12 | | 5 | 2019-04-01 | +----+---------------+ 5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to format date in MySQL to return MonthName and Year −
mysql> select DATE_FORMAT(AdmissionDate,'%M %Y') AS MonthNameAndYear FROM DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+------------------+ | MonthNameAndYear | +------------------+ | April 2013 | | January 2014 | | September 2016 | | December 2018 | | April 2019 | +------------------+ 5 rows in set (0.02 sec)
