[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-13132) Add currentTimestamp and currentDate functions

["Sylvain Lebresne (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13132?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15827774#comment-15827774 ] 

Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-13132:
----------------------------------------------

Since you didn't include it in your description, I'd suggest making things consistent/regular by also adding a {{currentTime}} and a {{currentTimeUUID}}. The latter would just be a new name for {{now}} but I think it's worth having for consistency.

> Today, the only way to get the current {{timestamp}} or {{date}} is to convert using the {{toTimestamp}} and {{toDate}} functions the output of {{now()}}.
