How do I use an SQL statement on an sqllite database to insert the current date in UTC. I found the NOW function but what format is that in? This will be on mobile devices so everyone will have a different locale, however, I need a standard time format because the device will compare the dates with my server.
Also, is there a way to automatically update a ‘modified’ field when the data in the row is changed like you can in MySQL?
SELECT DATETIME('now')returns the current UTC datetime. See Date And Time Functions. You can use DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP with column declaration.For the ‘modified’ field you can use a trigger.
