MySQL's ADDTIME(~) method adds the specified time interval to a time or datetime value.
Parameters
1. expr1 | time/datetime
The time or datetime to add the time interval to.
2. expr2 | time
The time interval to add to expr1.
Return value
The result of adding the specified time interval to expr1.
Examples
Basic usage
To add a time to a datetime:
SELECT ADDTIME('2019-12-31 23:59:59.999999', '1:1:1.000002');
+-------------------------------------------------------+| ADDTIME('2019-12-31 23:59:59.999999', '1:1:1.000002') |+-------------------------------------------------------+| 2020-01-01 01:01:01.000001 |+-------------------------------------------------------+
To add a time to a time:
SELECT ADDTIME('12:30:30.999999', '1:1:1.000002');
+--------------------------------------------+| ADDTIME('12:30:30.999999', '1:1:1.000002') |+--------------------------------------------+| 13:31:32.000001 |+--------------------------------------------+
Negative time
To add negative time (i.e. subtract a time):
SELECT ADDTIME('12:30:30.999999', '-1:1:1.000002');
+---------------------------------------------+| ADDTIME('12:30:30.999999', '-1:1:1.000002') |+---------------------------------------------+| 11:29:29.999997 |+---------------------------------------------+
Note that there is a separate method SUBTIME(~) specifically for subtracting time intervals from a time / datetime.
