MySQL query to return a substring after delimiter?



Use SUBSTRING() to return values after delimiter. Let us first create a table −

mysql> create table DemoTable -> ( -> Title text -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.56 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command −

mysql> insert into DemoTable values('John is good in MySQL,Sam is good in MongoDB,Mike is good in Java'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec)

Display all records from the table using select statement −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

Output

This will produce the following output −

+-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Title | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | John is good in MySQL,Sam is good in MongoDB,Mike is good in Java | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Here is the query to return substring after delimiter.

mysql> select substring(Title, instr(Title, ',') + 1) as AfterDelimiter from DemoTable;

Output

This will produce the following output −

+---------------------------------------------+ | AfterDelimiter | +---------------------------------------------+ | Sam is good in MongoDB,Mike is good in Java | +---------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.03 sec)
