Built-in Time Variable

Users hope that when writing code, the time format requirements are ever-changing, and the existing Linkis custom variables is currently not enough to support these requirements. In addition, some of the existing time operation -1 means minus one month, and some minus one day, which is easy for users to confuse

• Other date built-in variables are calculated relative to run_date
• Support Pattern format time and users can specify at will
• Support ±y/±M/±d/±H etc.

Pattern format comparison table:

The overall design and technical architecture refer to Linkis Custom Variables

• The variable types supported by Linkis are divided into custom variables (not to be repeated) and system built-in variables. The custom variable date supports +-.
• Among them, +- is to perform operation on the built-in parameter run_date of linkis, and then replace the pattern field before %. Non-pattern characters do not support operation replacement.

You can define parameters that need to be dynamically rendered according to your own preferences/business actual situation

• Example 1: sql

SELECT * FROM hive.tmp.fund_nav_histories
WHERE dt <= DATE_FORMAT(DATE_ADD('day', -1, DATE(Date_parse('&{yyyyMMdd%-1d}', '%Y%m%d'))), '%Y%m%d')

after rendering

SELECT * FROM hive.tmp.fund_nav_histories
WHERE dt <= DATE_FORMAT(DATE_ADD('day', -1, DATE(Date_parse('20220705', '%Y%m%d'))), '%Y%m%d')

• Example 2: shell

aws s3 ls s3://***/ads/tmp/dws_member_active_detail_d_20210601_20211231/pt=&{yyyyMMdd%-1d}/

after rendering

aws s3 ls s3://***/ads/tmp/dws_member_active_detail_d_20210601_20211231/pt=20220705/
