Learning Kusto query and looking for a way to get beginning of current month datetime.
As of time I post this it is 2/25/2020 so output should looks like below represents Feb 1, 2020
This is what I have so far and works, but there should be better way of doing this.
Can anyone please let me know if this query can be improved?
What's the common practice of getting beginning of current month?
Below, get year and month, add leading 0 if needed for month then concatenate the string and assign to variable "d" which then look like "2020-02-01" and pass that string to todatetime()
let year = datetime_part("Year",now());
let month = datetime_part("Month",now());
let m = case(month < 10, strcat("0", month), tostring(month));
let d = strcat(year, "-", m, "-01" );
print todatetime(d);
Try the startofmonth() function.
Example:
MyKustoTable
| project MonthStart = startofmonth(datetime('2020-2-5'))

I am trying to split a flowfile into multiple flow files on the basis of adding a month to a date which i am getting in the coming flowfile.
eg.
{"to":"2019-12-31T00:00:00Z","from":"2019-03-19T15:36:48Z"}
be the dates i am getting in a flowfile . so i have to split this single flow file into 11 flowfiles with date ranges like
{"to":"2019-04-19","from":"2019-03-19"}
{"to":"2019-05-19","from":"2019-04-19"}
{"to":"2019-06-19","from":"2019-05-19"}
....... and so till
{"to":"2019-12-31","from":"2019-12-19"} .
i have been trying with example inputs to split files with this into day wise flowfiles:
`
begin = '2018-02-15'
end = '2018-04-23'
dt_start = datetime.strptime(begin, '%Y-%m-%d')
dt_end = datetime.strptime(end, '%Y-%m-%d')
one_day = timedelta(days = 1)
start_dates = [dt_start]
end_dates = []
today = dt_start
while today <= dt_end:
tomorrow = today + one_day
print(tomorrow)
`
but i get a error in my Execute script processor. nifi flow screenshot
Since you're using Jython, you may have to cast today to some Jython/Python time variable or call today.getTime() in order to do arithmetic operations on it.
I am working on statistics page of my app and trying to query data by date.
To get the date range, I use Calendar.Date
date_range = Date.days_after_until(start_date, end_date, true)
|> Enum.to_list
And it returns date list of dates and each date looks like "2017-04-07". So with the date I got from date_range, I tried to query but it triggers an error like below.
where cannot be cast to type Ecto.DateTime in query: from o in Myapp.Order,
where: o.created_date >= ^~D[2017-04-07]
For created_date field of Order, I made field like this,
field :created_date, Ecto.DateTime.
If I want to query by date, how can I query it?
Thank in advance.
It looks like you're trying to compare a date and datetime. You need to cast one of them to the other type so the comparison works, e.g. convert the datetime in the database to a date:
date = ~D[2017-01-01]
from p in Post, where: fragment("?::date", p.inserted_at) >= ^date
or convert the Elixir Date to NaiveDateTime:
{:ok, datetime} = NaiveDateTime.new(date, ~T[00:00:00])
from p in Post, where: p.inserted_at >= ^datetime
If you have a start and end date, you just need to add an and to either. You don't need to generate the whole list of dates using any library.
from p in Post,
where: fragment("?::date", p.inserted_at) >= ^start_date and
fragment("?::date", p.inserted_at) <= ^end_date
or
from p in Post,
where: p.inserted_at >= ^start_datetime and
p.inserted_at <= ^end_datetime
I need help with a quick question I a string "07/10/2014" how can I get first the year "2014",second the month "10" ,third the day- "07" with out "/" only the values in VB.NET
Please show me the full way how to do it.
First declare it like this Dim x as Date = "07/10/2014". And to get the individual values use x.Day, x.Month and x.Year
Use the DateTime.Parse() method then use the return DateTime structure to extract the Month, Day, Year properties (similar to DJK's answer above).
If the thread's current culture is set to one that understands "mm/dd/yyyy" format, then the code can be as simple as:
Dim dt As DateTime = DateTime.Parse("07/15/2014")
MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Month: {0}; Day: {1}; Year: {2}", dt.Month, dt.Day, dt.Year))
Have a look at this.
Dim MyDate As Date
MyDate = "07/10/2014"
MsgBox(Format(MyDate, "dd")) ' dd gives you day number
MsgBox(Format(MyDate, "MM")) ' MM gives you month number
MsgBox(Format(MyDate, "YYYY")) ' YYYY gives you year number
The full list of date fomatting string could be found here (MSDN)
UPDATE
Use following example to assign to a string variable
Dim DayOfString As String DayOfString
DayOfString = Format(MyDate, "dd")
I have one variable
Dim tt="2008-10-20 10:00:00.0000000"
I want to change it into date,
Try CDATE(tt) see http://www.w3schools.com/vbscript/func_cdate.asp. I used
vbscript cdate
as keywords at Google. There were more results.
Edit: Based on the comment below (I'm sorry for mixing up), using
FormatDateTime(date,format)
Format contains following constants:
0 = vbGeneralDate - Default. Returns date: mm/dd/yy and time if
specified: hh:mm:ss PM/AM.
1 = vbLongDate - Returns date: weekday, monthname, year
2 = vbShortDate - Returns date: mm/dd/yy
3 = vbLongTime - Returns time: hh:mm:ss PM/AM
4 = vbShortTime - Return time: hh:mm
(copied from http://www.w3schools.com/vbscript/func_formatdatetime.asp)
This link, (MS CDate page), explains that:
adate = CDate(astring)
converts a string into a date object. For there, you can format it with the FormatDateTime function
str = FormatDateTime(Date)
the FormatDateTime function is "smart" -- it will format as date and time if both are present, otherwise it will format with whichever of date or time is present.
I propose a safe solution which returns the result only if the conversion is successful:
s="2008-10-20 10:00:00.0000000"
On Error Resume Next
d=CDate(Left(s,19))
On Error Goto 0
if not IsEmpty(d) then MsgBox d
Try it for a non-valid date or non-valid format. The result will be empty.
s="2008-02-31 10:00:00"
In same contexts, it is necessary to initialize the variable collecting result of CData. I recommend to initialize it as Empty. Example below shows such case - counting valid dates in a string array:
Lines = array("2008-10-20 10:00:00.0000000", "2008-10-20 10:00:00", "", "2008-02-31", "Today", "2017-02-7")
On Error Resume Next
Count=0
for each Line in Lines
d=Empty
d=CDate(Line)
if not IsEmpty(d) then Count=Count+1
next
On Error Goto 0
MsgBox "Number of valid dates is "&Count
The correct answer is 2. Without initialization we get 5 as the CDate does not do anything on error so variable keeps the value from a recent iteration in the loop.
If do not need your milliseconds, your could use the following:
<script type="text/vbscript">
s="2008-10-20 10:00:00.0000000"
arr= Split(s, ".")
d=CDate(arr(0))
document.write(d)
</script>
I believe cdate is dependent on local settings to parse the string. This is no good in many situations.
To avoid this you need to use
DateSerial()
and if needed add any time components to the result separately.
The date literal in classic asp is unreliable. If the first or second part is greater than 12, it takes that value for day, the other as month. If both parts are less than 12, the interpretation is unpredictable: sometimes american and sometimes british.
A work-around is to force the entry of dates into separate fields or use a date entry module which can set the date into british or american style.
A date literal should be treated as american and use a function to convert that into a date variable using Dateserial().
function amerdate(str)
'str 3/5/2023 form: in american format: use for calculations including date
Dim d
d = Split(str, "/")
amerdate = Dateserial(d(2), d(0), d(1))
end function
Use only american date in calculations like Dateadd() etc.
someday = "3/5/2023" '5th march, american date literal
nextday = Dateadd("d", 1, amerdate(someday))
Whenever a date display is required, convert to british date and show it.
function britdate(str)
'str: 3/5/2023 form: display in british form. not for calculations
Dim d
d= Split(str, "/")
britdate = d(1) & "/" & d(0) & "/" & d(2)
end function
A column in an excel worksheet holds the month in this format:
Oct_2010
What I want to do is, get the last date of that month. What I figured I would do is, read the month in the cell, get the first day of the next month and then subtract one day, so I get the last date of the previous month.
But, how can I get Excel (VBA code) to read Oct_2010 as Oct 2010?
In VBA
Function LastDayFromString(sDate As String) As Date
Dim dtTemp As Date
If Not sDate Like "???[_]####" Then Err.Raise 9999, , "Invalid date string format"
dtTemp = DateValue(Replace(sDate, "_", "/"))
LastDayFromString = DateSerial(Year(dtTemp), Month(dtTemp) + 1, 0)
End Function
Used like
?lastdayfromstring("Oct_2010")
10/31/2010
How about:
=DATE(YEAR(REPLACE(A1,4,1,"/")),MONTH(REPLACE(A1,4,1,"/")),0)
Where A1=Oct_2010
