Question

I need to pull a variable amount of days of data from a MySQL database that stores the date as a UNIX timestamp in an int column.

For example, if I need the last 5 days of data, what would my query be?
(All queries would start from current date and would go back x amount of days).

Answer 1

Timestamp is considered one of the Date and Time types and therefore any of the Date Time Functions can be used on it.

SELECT * FROM your_table
WHERE Ftimestamp_column > UNIX_TIMESTAMP(DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 5 DAY));
