How to list records with date from the last 10 days?

Question

SELECT Table.date FROM Table WHERE date > current_date - 10;

Does this work on PostgreSQL?

Answer 1

My understanding from my testing (and the PostgreSQL dox) is that the quotes need to be done differently from the other answers, and should also include "day" like this:

SELECT Table.date
  FROM Table 
  WHERE date > current_date - interval '10 day';

Demonstrated here (you should be able to run this on any Postgres db):

SELECT DISTINCT current_date, 
                current_date - interval '10' day, 
                current_date - interval '10 days' 
  FROM pg_language;

Result:

2013-03-01  2013-03-01 00:00:00 2013-02-19 00:00:00
