Name

curdatetime, curdatetime_tz — returns current datetime with adjusted fractional part of seconds

Synopsis

curdatetime( in fraction_microseconds integer);
 
curdatetime_tz( in fraction_microseconds integer);
 

Description

The function returns current datetime, like now(), but fractional part of seconds can be adjusted by providing the number of "microseconds" as the argument.

curdatetime_tz behaves identically to curdatetime but always returns a timezone-aware DATETIME stamped with the server's local timezone offset, even when the session default is timezone-less. Pair it with forget_timezone when a naive value is required.

Parameters

fraction_microseconds

Microseconds.

Return Types

A DATETIME timestamp.

Errors

curdatetime does not return errors.

Examples

Example 24.64. Get a timestamp
