Can someone show me how I can output hrs:mins:secs in mySQL SELECT statement below? - mysql-workbench

Question

Here is the picture of how I would like it to be displayed
Here is what I have so far when use the DATE_ADD function in MySQL Workbench 6.3, but I have been struggling to output the hrs:mins:secs (you don't see the code for that output because I didn't write it here). I know that I can use INTERVAL HOUR_SECOND to display hrs:mins:secs but I don't understand how it works.
SELECT DATE_ADD('2017-01-26', INTERVAL 31 DAY) AS '31 Days';
I know this SELECT statement above will output 31 days from the specified date indicated above, but what do I need to do to output the hrs:mins:secs along with the 31 days from the date in the SELECT statement?

Answer 1

You can do it using DATE_FORMAT(). Examples:
Add function
/*
* Adds a particular interval to given date
*/
SELECT DATE_ADD('2017-01-26', INTERVAL 31 DAY) AS '31 Days';
Output:
31 Days
2017-02-26
Format function
/*
* Formats a particular date object
*/
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(NOW(),'%b %d %Y %h:%i %p')
AS 'Now';
Output:
Now

Format and add:
/*
* Adds and Formats date object
*/
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(DATE_ADD('2017-01-26', INTERVAL 31 DAY),'%b %d %Y %h:%i %p')
AS 'Formatted date';
Output:
Formatted date
