[jira] [Commented] (CALCITE-6021) Add CURRENT_DATETIME function (enabled in BigQuery library)

["Julian Hyde (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-6021?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17767767#comment-17767767 ] 

Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-6021:
--------------------------------------

Note that the {{CURRENT_TIMESTAMP}}, {{LOCAL_TIMESTAMP}} functions are implemented more like variables than functions. This should be similar (or perhaps expand to existing functions).

The return type of {{CURRENT_TIMESTAMP}} may be inconsistent with the SQL standard. If so please devise a fix.

> Calcite supports parsing and validation for the CURRENT_DATETIME function according to CALCITE-4297 . However a native implementation was never added.
> The docs for the function may be found here: 
>  https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/datetime_functions#current_datetime
> An example:
> {{SELECT CURRENT_DATETIME([timezone])}} should return the current time as a {{DATETIME}} (a Calcite TIMESTAMP). There is an optional time zone argument.
