JPQL query with CURRENT_DATE - 1 does not work

Question

I am new to JPA2.0 and Spring Data JPA where in I am trying to get the details where createdDt > Sysdate and createdDt > sysdate-1. I am not sure if sysdate-1 can be achieved using CURRENT_DATE-1 function, its not working.

Any help as below options doesn't works well? I also tried YESTERDAY, this also fails.

Here I am not looking to developed using PersistanceContext and entity Manager query.

@Query("SELECT e FROM CustMstr e WHERE e.crteDt < CURRENT_DATE AND (DAYS(e.crteDt) > DAYS(CURRENT_DATE) - 1) AND e.accActive ='Y'")
List<CustMstr> findByEmailAndAcc();

another way

@Query("SELECT e FROM CustMstr e WHERE e.crteDt < CURRENT_DATE AND (DAYS(e.crteDt) > CURRENT_DATE - 1) AND e.accActive ='Y'")
List<CustMstr> findByEmailAndAcc();

Error below

Answer 1

JPA define CURRENT_DATE / CURRENT_TIME / CURRENT_TIMESTAMP to be portable way to reference current date / time.

Also, some implementation (not all!) support function like year / month / day / hour / minute / second.

In your code, you use days. You can replace it with day. But it is a to extract the day of month, not sure it is what you want.

If you want to reference 'yesterday', you can try to use CURRENT_DATE-1 but it is not necessary portable (some DB will be ok with that, other not).

You can try:

@Query("SELECT e FROM CustMstr e WHERE e.crteDt between CURRENT_DATE-1 AND  CURRENT_DATE AND e.accActive ='Y'")
List<CustMstr> findByEmailAndAcc();

But perhaps you will need to manage this on java side:

on Repository side:

@Query("SELECT e FROM CustMstr e WHERE e.crteDt between :start and :end AND e.accActive ='Y'")
List<CustMstr> findByEmailAndAcc(Date start, Date end);

on service side:

List<CustMstr> findByEmailAndAcc(){
    Date start=new Date();
    Date end=new Date(date.getTime()-(24*3600));
    return repository.findByEmailAndAcc(start, end);
}
