basename in PHP returns the file name of a path.
Is there a way to do this within the SELECT
statement of a MySQL Query? It would be nice to have this so I can apply ORDER BY
directly to it.
The basename() function returns the filename from a path.
mysql flags are used by the compiler and set the enviroment you wish to work in. There's flags such as: '--with-archive-storage-engine' wgich does what it states, it would start mysql process but also start the system in archive able content mode.
In general, a parameter is a placeholder for a variable that contains some value of some type when executing a general-purpose query, or arguments and return values when a stored procedure is executed. Parameter is represented by MySql.
mysql is a simple SQL shell with input line editing capabilities. It supports interactive and noninteractive use. When used interactively, query results are presented in an ASCII-table format. When used noninteractively (for example, as a filter), the result is presented in tab-separated format.
You can use the SUBSTRING_INDEX
function to get the last element after a specific delimiter, in this case a slash. This can also be used with a backslash, simply use "\\"
in that case.
SELECT
Path,
SUBSTRING_INDEX(Path, '/', -1) AS FileName
FROM
files
Example result row:
Path = downloads/apps/file1.exe
FileName = file1.exe
