postgreSQL question: get data by last date of each record and subtract from last date number of days - postgresql

Please help me make a request. i'm at a dead end.
There are 2 tables:
“Trains”:
+----+---------+
| id | numbers |
+----+---------+
| 1 | 101 |
| 2 | 102 |
| 3 | 103 |
| 4 | 104 |
| 5 | 105 |
+----+---------+
“Passages”:
+----+--------------+-------+---------------------+
| id | train_number | speed | date_time |
+----+--------------+-------+---------------------+
| 1 | 101 | 26 | 2021-11-10 16:26:30 |
| 2 | 101 | 28 | 2021-11-12 16:26:30 |
| 3 | 102 | 24 | 2021-11-14 16:26:30 |
| 4 | 103 | 27 | 2021-11-15 16:26:30 |
| 5 | 101 | 29 | 2021-11-16 16:26:30 |
+----+--------------+-------+---------------------+
The goal is to go through the train numbers from the Trains table, take from the existing ones from the Passages table by the latest date (date_time) and the number of passages for “the last date for each train” - N days. as I understand date_time - interval "N days". should get something like:
+----+--------+---------------------+----------------+
| id | train | last_passage | count_passages |
+----+--------+---------------------+----------------+
| 1 | 101 | 2021-11-10 16:26:30 | 2 |
| 2 | 102 | 2021-11-14 16:26:30 | 1 |
| 3 | 103 | 2021-11-15 16:26:30 | 1 |
| 4 | 104 | null | 0 |
| 5 | 105 | null | 0 |
+----+--------+---------------------+----------------+
ps: "count_passages" - for example, last passage date minus 4 days
I tried through "where in" but I can’t create the necessary and correct request

How to group MVA field for faceted in sphinx

I have an index where some data's has duplicate, all fields are similar except for latitude,longitude and id (field id is not realy ID, just generated row_number() OVER () AS id).
it's example:
mysql> select id,vacancy_id,prof_area_ids,latitude,longitude from jobVacancy;

Result is awesome! But problem begins when I want to get all grouped data with faceted
mysql> select id,vacancy_id,prof_area_ids,latitude,longitude from jobVacancy where prof_area_ids=199 group by vacancy_id facet prof_area_ids;
+------+------------+-----------------+----------+-----------+
| id | vacancy_id | prof_area_ids | latitude | longitude |
+------+------------+-----------------+----------+-----------+
| 1 | 917 | 11,199,202 | 0.973178 | 0.743566 |
| 191 | 1004 | 11,196,199 | 0.925335 | 2.768874 |
| 313 | 1072 | 1,11,60,197,199 | 0.963968 | 1.070624 |
| 318 | 1136 | 11,196,199 | 0.96071 | 1.448998 |
| 374 | 1097 | 11,199 | 0.785255 | 0.678504 |
+------+------------+-----------------+----------+-----------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
+---------------+----------+
| prof_area_ids | count(*) |
+---------------+----------+
| 202 | 1 |
| 199 | 12 |
| 11 | 12 |
| 196 | 5 |
| 197 | 3 |
| 60 | 3 |
| 1 | 3 |
+---------------+----------+
7 rows in set (0.02 sec)
Faceted result is incorrect. Because in fact data's count where prof_area_ids=199 must be 5 and not 12. So how I can group field for faceted?
Additionaly
I fount here http://sphinxsearch.com/blog/2013/06/21/faceted-search-with-sphinx/ but just written "If you have a MVA facet, you need to use the GROUPBY() function which returns the actual value on which the grouping was made." and without examle.
mysql> select id,vacancy_id,prof_area_ids,latitude,longitude,GROUPBY() as selected,COUNT(*) from jobVacancy where prof_area_ids=199 group by vacancy_id facet prof_area_ids;
+------+------------+-----------------+----------+-----------+----------+----------+
| id | vacancy_id | prof_area_ids | latitude | longitude | selected | count(*) |
+------+------------+-----------------+----------+-----------+----------+----------+
| 1 | 917 | 11,199,202 | 0.973178 | 0.743566 | 917 | 1 |

+---------------+----------+
| 202 | 1 |
| 199 | 12 |
| 11 | 12 |
| 196 | 5 |
| 197 | 3 |

Also faceted result is wrong.
Seems, wanting effectively COUNT(DISTINCT vacancy_id) on the FACET rather than the default COUNT(*), but alas it turns out
... FACET prof_area_ids,COUNT(DISTINCT vacancy_id) AS vacancies BY prof_area_ids
doesnt work. The bit before BY only supports attributes, not custom functions.
... will just have to write it out the long way, with full queries...
select id,vacancy_id,prof_area_ids,latitude,longitude from jobVacancy
where prof_area_ids=199 group by vacancy_id;
SELECT GROUPBY() AS prof_area_id, COUNT(DISTINCT vacancy_id) FROM jobVacancy
WHERE prof_area_ids=199 GROUP BY prof_area_id;
Same results, just slightly more verbose. ie rather than using FACET shorthand, write it
out in full, as multiple seperate queries.
Faceted result is incorrect. Because in fact data's count where prof_area_ids=199 must be 5 and not 12. So how I can group field for faceted?
It looks like you misunderstand how FACET works. It seems to me, that you think it takes as a base the main query's result, but it actually just does another grouping. E.g. here:
mysql> select g, t from idx_mva where t = 11 group by g facet t;
+------+----------+
| g | t |
+------+----------+
| 1 | 11,12 |
| 2 | 11,13,15 |
| 3 | 9,11 |
| 5 | 11,12,15 |
+------+----------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
+------+----------+
| t | count(*) |
+------+----------+
| 12 | 2 |
| 11 | 6 |
| 15 | 4 |
| 13 | 1 |
| 9 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 |
+------+----------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
for t=11 you can see that as in your case it's found 3 times in the 1st query's result, but the count for that is 6 in the FACET's query result. This is because it actually occurs 6 times in the index:
mysql> select * from idx_mva where t = 11;
+------+------+----------+
| id | g | t |
+------+------+----------+
| 2 | 1 | 11,12 |
| 3 | 1 | 11,15 |
| 3 | 2 | 11,13,15 |
| 6 | 3 | 9,11 |
| 8 | 5 | 11,12,15 |
| 11 | 2 | 3,11,15 |
+------+------+----------+
6 rows in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
and it happens 3 times in the 1st case only because the t's value is returned only once for each of the groups. You can use group_concat() to see more values from the same group:
mysql> select g, group_concat(to_string(t)) from idx_mva where t = 11 group by g facet t;
+------+----------------------------+
| g | group_concat(to_string(t)) |
+------+----------------------------+
| 1 | 11,12,11,15 |
| 2 | 11,13,15,3,11,15 |
| 3 | 9,11 |
| 5 | 11,12,15 |
+------+----------------------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
+------+----------+
| t | count(*) |
+------+----------+
| 12 | 2 |
| 11 | 6 |
| 15 | 4 |
| 13 | 1 |
| 9 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 |
+------+----------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)

As you can see, I'm trying to get single rows for my primary keys, using the latest timestamp, which is also a primary key.
Currently, I tried a query like:
SELECT Timestamp, COL_A, COL_B, COL_C, COL_D, Data_A, Data_B From Table XY op
WHERE Timestamp = (
SELECT MAX(Timestamp) FROM XY as tsRow
WHERE op.COL_A = tsRow.COL_A
AND op.COL_B = tsRow.COL_B
AND op.COL_C = tsRow.COL_C
AND op.COL_D = tsRow."COL_D
);
which gives me result that looks fine at first glance.
Is there a better or more safe way to get my preferred result?
demo:db<>fiddle
You can use the DISTINCT ON clause, which gives you the first record of an ordered group. Here your group is your (A, B, C, D). This is ordered by the Timestamp column, in descending order, to get the most recent record to be the first.
SELECT DISTINCT ON ("COL_A", "COL_B", "COL_C", "COL_D")
*
FROM
mytable
ORDER BY "COL_A", "COL_B", "COL_C", "COL_D", "Timestamp" DESC
If you want to get your expected order, you need a second ORDER BY after this operation:
SELECT
*
FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT ON ("COL_A", "COL_B", "COL_C", "COL_D")
*
FROM
mytable
ORDER BY "COL_A", "COL_B", "COL_C", "COL_D", "Timestamp" DESC
) s
ORDER BY "Timestamp"
Note: If you have the Timestamp column as part of the PK, are you sure, you really need the four other columns as PK as well? It seems, that the TS column is already unique.

Check previous and next record

I'm trying to compare different costs from different periods. But I dont no how I can compare the single record with the record before and after. What I need is a yes or no in my dataset when the costs from a records is the same as record before and record after.
My dataset looks like this:
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| Client | Provision | CAK Year | CAK Period | Costs | Serial Nr |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 210 | 2017 | 13 | 150 | 1 |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 1 | 200 | 2 |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 2 | 170 | 3 |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 3 | 150 | 4 |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 4 | 150 | 5 |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 5 | 150 | 6 |

+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
| 1 | 689 | 2018 | 3 | 345 | 1 |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+
What i've tried so far:
CASE
WHEN Provision = Provision
AND Costs = LEAD(Costs, 1, 0) OVER(ORDER BY CAK Year, CAK Period)
AND Costs = LAG(Costs, 1, 0) OVER(ORDER BY CAK Year, CAK Period)
THEN 'Yes
ELSE 'No'
END
My expected result:
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| Client | Provision | CAK Year | CAK Period | Costs | Serial Nr | Result |
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| 1 | 210 | 2017 | 13 | 150 | 1 | No
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 1 | 200 | 2 | No
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 2 | 170 | 3 | No
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| 1 | 210 | 2018 | 3 | 150 | 4 | No
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+

+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| 1 | 689 | 2018 | 2 | 345 | 1 | Yes
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
| 1 | 689 | 2018 | 3 | 345 | 1 | No
+--------+-----------+----------+------------+-------+-----------+--------+
You guys can help me further because I don't get the expected result?
You need to add in partition by Provision otherwise your lag and lead ordering will run across all Provision values:
declare #d table(Client int,Provision int,CAKYear int, CAKPeriod int, Costs int, SerialNr int);
insert into #d values
(1,210,2017,13,150,1)
,(1,210,2018,1,200,2)
,(1,210,2018,2,170,3)
,(1,210,2018,3,150,4)
,(1,210,2018,4,150,5)
,(1,210,2018,5,150,6)
,(1,689,2018,1,345,1)
,(1,689,2018,2,345,1)
,(1,689,2018,3,345,1);
select *
,case when Provision = Provision
and Costs = lead(Costs, 1, 0) over(partition by Provision order by CAKYear, CAKPeriod)
and Costs = lag(Costs, 1, 0) over(partition by Provision order by CAKYear, CAKPeriod)
then 'Yes'
else 'No'
end as Result
from #d
order by Provision
,CAKYear
,CAKPeriod;
Output
+--------+-----------+---------+-----------+-------+----------+--------+

SQL Server 2008 R2 - converting columns to rows and have all values in one column

I am having a hard time trying to wrap my head around the pivot/unpivot concepts and hoping someone can help or give me some guidance on how to approach my problem.
Here is a simplified sample table I have
+-------+------+------+------+------+------+
| SAUID | COM1 | COM2 | COM3 | COM4 | COM5 |
+-------+------+------+------+------+------+
| 1 | 24 | 22 | 100 | 0 | 45 |
| 2 | 34 | 55 | 789 | 23 | 0 |
| 3 | 33 | 99 | 5552 | 35 | 4675 |
+-------+------+------+------+------+------+
The end result I am looking for a table result similar below
+-------+-----------+-------+
| SAUID | OCCUPANCY | VALUE |
+-------+-----------+-------+
| 1 | COM1 | 24 |
| 1 | COM2 | 22 |
| 1 | COM3 | 100 |
| 1 | COM4 | 0 |
| 1 | COM5 | 45 |
| 2 | COM1 | 34 |
| 2 | COM2 | 55 |
| 2 | COM3 | 789 |
| 2 | COM4 | 23 |
| 2 | COM5 | 0 |
| 3 | COM1 | 33 |
| 3 | COM2 | 99 |
| 3 | COM3 | 5552 |
| 3 | COM4 | 35 |
| 3 | COM5 | 4675 |
+-------+-----------+-------+
Im looking around but most of the examples seem to use pivot but having a hard time trying to wrap that around my case as I need the values all in one column.
I hoping to experiment with some hardcoding to get fimilar with my example but my actual table columns are ~100 with varying #s of SAUID per table and looks like it will require dynamic sql?
Thanks for the help in advance.
Use UNPIVOT:
SELECT u.SAUID, u.OCCUPANCY, u.VALUE
FROM yourTable t
UNPIVOT
(
VALUE for OCCUPANCY in (COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5)
) u;
ORDER BY
u.SAUID, u.OCCUPANCY;

I want now to retrieve the maximum value for every hour, along with the data associated to that entry (id, date). As such, I tried the following:
select max(value) as m, (date_trunc('hour', date)) as d
from temperature
where station='1'
group by (date_trunc('hour', date));
Which works fine (fiddle), but I only get the columns m and d as a result. If I now try to add the date or id columns to the SELECT statement, I get the usual column "temperature.id" must appear in the GROUP BY clause or be used in an aggregate function error.
I have already tried approaches such as the ones described here, unfortunately to no avail, as for instance I seem to be unable to perform a join on the date_trunc-generated columns.
The result I am aiming for is this:
+----+--------+-------------------------------+---------+
| id | value | date | station |
+----+--------+-------------------------------+---------+
| 3 | 25.187 | 2017-08-22 14:01:10.315413+02 | 1 |
| 33 | 26.625 | 2017-08-22 15:58:54.59986+02 | 1 |
| 41 | 26.562 | 2017-08-21 15:59:41.182622+02 | 1 |
+----+--------+-------------------------------+---------+
It does not matter which record was retrieved in case two or more entries have the same value.
distinct on:
select distinct on (date_trunc('hour', date)) *
from temperature
where station = '1'
order by date_trunc('hour', date), value desc
