Postgres - Pass dynamically generated date to where clause

Question

I need to generate series of date till current_date based on job's last run date

• last run date ='2022-10-01'
• current date = '2022-10-05'

generate date like

varchar dynamic_date = '2022-10-01','2022-10-02','2022-10-03','2022-10-04','2022-10-05'

and pass to where to clause

select * 
from t1 
where created_date in (dynamic_date)

this is not allowed as dynamic_date is varchar and created_date is date column

trying to find efficient way to do this

Answer 1

You can use generate_series()

select * 
from t1 
where created_date in (select g.dt::date
                       from generate_series(date '2022-10-01', 
                                            current_date, 
                                            interval '1 day') as g(dt)
                      )

Or even simpler:

select * 
from t1 
where created_date >= date '2022-10-01'
  and created_date <= current_date
