change default date format laravel sql query

Question

I want to change date out put from following SELECT query to DD/MM/YYY format . pls advice.

this is what I tried so far

  ->select('time_sheets.progress',DATE_FORMAT('time_sheets.date', "%d/%l/%Y") ,'role_users.role_id','roles.role_name')

Answer 1

Instead of using ->select you can use selectRaw to allow raw SQL query so you can use:

->selectRaw('time_sheets.progress, DATE_FORMAT(time_sheets.date, "%d/%l/%Y"), role_users.role_id, roles.role_name');

Answer 2

->select('time_sheets.progress',\DB::raw('DATE_FORMAT(p.created_at,\'%d-%m-%Y\') as data')), role_users.role_id, roles.role_name');

Hope to help someone else !

Answer 3

->select(DB::raw('DATE_FORMAT(FROM_UNIXTIME(column_name), "%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s") as cstime_value'))
