Hi:

How does one reformat the output of the "age" function to always be in terms of hours:mins.

E.g.

dvdb=> select age('2020-03-05 01:40:32-05','2020-03-01 21:56:05-05');
        age
-----------------
  3 days 03:44:27
(1 row)

I want...

"75:44"

I'm not married to "age"  If there's a better way to do this that's fine too.

Not sure it's better, but it will give you idea of what needs to be done:


SELECT
    floor(
        extract(
epoch FROM ('2020-03-05 01:40:32-05'::timestamptz - '2020-03-01 21:56:05-05'::timestamptz))
            / 3600)::varchar || ':' ||
    ((mod(
          extract(
epoch FROM ('2020-03-05 01:40:32-05'::timestamptz - '2020-03-01 21:56:05-05'::timestamptz))::numeric,
 3600::numeric) / 60)::int)::varchar;

?column?
----------
 75:44
(1 row)


Thanks in advance !
