Title before edit: I hate programming, why did i choose this field
TL;DR: Stupid mistake, made by hours waste.
Basically, I was extracting date from the SQL db, and it was not displaying. I tried everything, heck I even went to chatgpt, and copilot. Two and half hours of trying every single thing under the sun, you know what was the issue?
SELECT task, status, id FROM mainWorkSpace WHERE user_id = @user_id
I FUCKING FORGOT TO ADD ‘date’ TO THE DAMN QUERY. TWO AND HALF HOURS. I was like, “Ain’t no way.” as I scrolled up to the query and there it was, a slap in the face, and you know what was the fix?
SELECT task, status, date, id FROM mainWorkSpace WHERE user_id = @user_id
Moral of the story, don’t become a programmer, become a professional cat herder instead.
The reason the date is not in the output is because you didn’t include a date column in your SELECT statement.
If you want to include the date in the output, you’ll need to add a column that contains the date to your SELECT statement. For example, if you have a column named “created_at” or “date” in your mainWorkSpace table, you can add it to your SELECT statement like this:
SELECT task, status, id, created_at FROM mainWorkSpace WHERE user_id = @user_idThis will include the created_at column in the output of your query.
🤷 Gpt, first try. I don’t know what you asked.
I pasted my code multiple times and didn’t give me that answer. Maybe it’s because you only copied the query and not the code that i wrote.
I also posed the question why I don’t get a date in the output of course.
I was talking about this date which was used to display the date assigned by the user, but the column was not displaying with the date because I wasn’t asking sql for the date (if you’ve looked at the query), so yeah, a stupid mistake caused for a stupid angry post.
