This issue always stumps me. I need to set the default date for a column in
postgres. A value for today, today + x days, now (timestamp), now + x amount of
days.

I never seem to be able to locate it in the documentation or online. Can anyone
post it here once and for all for posterity?

I will be much obliged

CURRENT_DATE, CURRENT_DATE + x, now(), now() + 'x days'::interval are a
few options.
