Order By date ASC in MySQL?
You can use STR_TO_DATE() function. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable ( AdmissionDate varchar(200) ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.19 sec)
Insert records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('12-01-2019'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('14-12-2016'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('26-04-2018'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.34 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('31-05-2013'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.30 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select * from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------+ | AdmissionDate | +---------------+ | 12-01-2019 | | 14-12-2016 | | 26-04-2018 | | 31-05-2013 | +---------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to sort order by date ASC −
mysql> select *from DemoTable ORDER BY STR_TO_DATE(AdmissionDate,'%d-%m-%Y') ASC;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------+ | AdmissionDate | +---------------+ | 31-05-2013 | | 14-12-2016 | | 26-04-2018 | | 12-01-2019 | +---------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
