I have the following table structure :
place_id | parent_place_id | name
---------|-----------------|------------
1 | 2 | child
---------|-----------------|------------
2 | 3 | dad
---------|-----------------|------------
3 | | grandfather
......
I am trying to write a query so that my output data is as follows :
id_Grandfather | name_Grandfather | id_Dad | name_Dad | id_Child | name_child
----------------|------------------|--------|----------|----------|-----------
3 | grandfather | 2 | dad | 1 | child
I have tried many ways but not getting the expected result. Can anyone help me to solve it? Thank !
There is a way to do it with double join. But does it make any sense is totally different question.
SELECT
gf.place_id as id_Grandfather,
gf.name as name_Grandfather,
d.place_id as id_Dad,
d.name as name_Dad,
c.place_id as id_Child,
c.name as name_Child
FROM
your_table c
LEFT JOIN your_table d ON c.parent_place_id = d.place_id
LEFT JOIN your_table gf ON d.parent_lace_id = gf.place_id
-- Add this if you want to have only lines which has Dad and Grandfather fields populated
WHERE d.place_id IS NOT NULL
;

I have the following sample data (items) with some kind of recursion. For the sake of simplicity I limited the sample to 2 level. Matter of fact - they could grow quite deep.
+----+--------------------------+----------+------------------+-------+
| ID | Item - Name | ParentID | MaterializedPath | Color |
+----+--------------------------+----------+------------------+-------+
| 1 | Parent 1 | null | 1 | green |
| 2 | Parent 2 | null | 2 | green |
| 4 | Parent 2 Child 1 | 2 | 2.4 | orange|
| 6 | Parent 2 Child 1 Child 1 | 4 | 2.4.6 | red |
| 7 | Parent 2 Child 1 Child 2 | 4 | 2.4.7 | orange|
| 3 | Parent 1 Child 1 | 1 | 1.3 | orange|
| 5 | Parent 1 Child 1 Child | 3 | 1.3.5 | red |

I need to get via SQL all children
which are not orange
for a given starting ID
with either starting ID=1. The result should be 1, 1.3.5. When start with ID=4 the should be 2.4.6.
I read little bit and found the CTE should be used. I tried the following simplified definition
WITH w1( id, parent_item_id) AS
( SELECT
i.id,
i.parent_item_id
FROM
item i
WHERE
id = 4
UNION ALL
SELECT
i.id,
i.parent_item_id
FROM
item, JOIN w1 ON i.parent_item_id = w1.id
);
However, this won't even be executed as SQL-statement. I have several question to this:
CTE could be used with Hibernate?
Is there a way have the result via SQL queries? (more or less as recursive pattern)
I'm somehow lost with the recursive pattern combined with selection of color for the end result.
Your query is invalid for the following reasons:
As documented in the manual a recursive CTE requires the RECURSIVE keyword
Your JOIN syntax is wrong. You need to remove the , and give the items table an alias.
If you need the color column, just add it to both SELECTs inside the CTE and filter the rows in the final SELECT.
If that is changed, the following works fine:
WITH recursive w1 (id, parent_item_id, color) AS
(
SELECT i.id,
i.parent_item_id,
i.color
FROM item i
WHERE id = 4
UNION ALL
SELECT i.id,
i.parent_item_id,
i.color
FROM item i --<< missing alias
JOIN w1 ON i.parent_item_id = w1.id
)
select *
from w1
where color <> 'orange'
Note that the column list for the CTE definition is optional, so you can just write with recursive w1 as ....
SQL newbie here. I'm trying to write a query that generates a scoring table, setting null to a student's grades in a module for which they haven't yet taken their exams (on PostgreSQL).
So I start with tables that look something like this:
student_evaluation:
|student_id| module_id | course_id |grade |
|----------|-----------|-----------|-------|
| 1 | 1 | 1 |3 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |7 |
| 1 | 2 | 1 |8 |
| 2 | 4 | 2 |9 |
course_module:
| module_id | course_id |
| ---------- | --------- |
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 |
| 4 | 2 |
In our use case, a course is made up of several modules. Each module has a single exam, but a student who failed his exam may have a couple of retries. The same module may also be present in different courses, but an exam attempt only counts for one instance of the module (ie. student A passed module 1's exam on course 1. If course 2 also has module 1, student A has to retake the same exam for course 2 if he also has access to that course).
So the output should look like this:
student_id
module_id
course_id
grade
1
1
1
3
1
1
1
7
1
2
1
8
1
3
1
null
2
4
2
9
I feel like this should have been a simple task, but I think I have a very flawed understanding of how outer and cross joins work. I have tried stuff like:
SELECT se.student_id, se.module_id, se.course_id, se.grade FROM student_evaluation se
RIGHT OUTER JOIN course_module ON course_module.course_id = se.course_id
AND course_module.module_id = se.module_id
or
SELECT se.student_id, se.module_id, se.course_id, se.grade FROM student_evaluation se
CROSS JOIN course_module WHERE course_module.course_id = se.course_id
Neither worked. These all feel wrong, but I'm lost as to what would be the proper way to go about this.
Thank you in advance.
I think you need both join types: first use a cross join to build a list of all combinations of students and courses, then use an outer join to add the grades.
SELECT sc.student_id,
sc.module_id,
sc.course_id,
se.grade
FROM student_evaluation se
RIGHT JOIN (SELECT s.student_id,
c.module_id,
c.course_id
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT student_id
FROM student_evaluation) AS s
CROSS JOIN course_module AS c) AS sc
USING (course_id));
Table A contains student names, table B and C contain classes and the presence of students.
I would like to display all students and attend their presence. The problem is that I can not display all students who did not have a checked presence.
Where I checked the presence of students it is ok, but if there is no checked presence in a given class, on a given day and in a given subject- nothing is displayed.
My query:
SELECT student.id_student, CONCAT(student.name,' ' ,student.surname) as 'name_surname',pres_student_present, pres_student_absent, pres_student_justified, pres_student_late, pres_student_rel, pres_student_course, pres_student_delegation, pres_student_note FROM student
LEFT JOIN class ON student.no_classes = class.no_classes
LEFT JOIN pres_student ON student.id_student = pres_student.id_student
WHERE (class.no_classes = '$class' OR NULL AND pres_student_data = '$data' AND pres_student_id_subject = $id_subject OR NULL)
GROUP BY student.surname
ORDER BY student.surname ASC
I want to display name_surname always and any other column should have NULL or 1
like:
Name | present | absent | just | late | rel | delegation | note |
Donald Trump | 1 | | | | | | |
Bush | | | | | | | |
Someone | 1 | | | | | | |
etc...
You should move restrictions on class and pres_studenttables from the WHERE clause to the ON (LEFT join).
In your case when you perform a restriction in the WHERE clause on a table with an outer join, the sql engine consider you are performing an INNER join
SELECT student.id_student
, CONCAT(student.name, ' ', student.surname) AS 'name_surname'
, pres_student_present
, pres_student_absent
, pres_student_justified
, pres_student_late
, pres_student_rel
, pres_student_course
, pres_student_delegation
, pres_student_note
FROM student
LEFT JOIN class
ON student.no_classes = class.no_classes
AND class.no_classes = '$class'
LEFT JOIN pres_student
ON student.id_student = pres_student.id_student
AND pres_student_data = '$data'
AND pres_student_id_subject = $id_subject
GROUP BY student.surname
ORDER BY student.surname ASC

the query "Make a list of all book titles and denote whether or not a copy of that book is checked out." so pretty much just the first table with a checked out column.
im trying to SELECT DISTINCT on a sub query with the checkout books first, but that doesn't work. I've researched and others say to accomplish this use a GROUP BY clause instead of DISTINCT but the examples they provide are one column queries and when more columns are added it doesn't work.
this is my closest attempt
SELECT DISTINCT ON (title)
title, checked_out
FROM(
SELECT b.title, t.checked_in_date IS NULL AS checked_out
FROM transactions t
natural join books b
ORDER BY checked_out DESC
) t;
or you can join only transactions where books are not checked in:
SELECT b.title, t.isbn IS NOT NULL AS checked_out
, t.checked_out_date
FROM books b
LEFT JOIN transactions t ON t.isbn = b.isbn AND t.checked_in_date IS NULL
ORDER BY checked_out DESC
I adjusted your attempt a little bit. Basically I changed the way your data is joined
SELECT DISTINCT ON (title)
title, checked_out
FROM(
SELECT b.title, t.checked_in_date IS NULL AS checked_out
FROM books b
LEFT OUTER JOIN transactions t USING (isbn)
ORDER BY checked_out DESC
) t;
I have three tables in Postgres. They are all about a single event (an occurrence, not "sports event"). Each table is about a specific item during the event.
table_header columns
gid, start_timestamp, end_timestamp, location, positions
table_item1 columns
gid, side, visibility, item1_timestamp
table_item2 columns
gid, position_id, name, item2_timestamp
I've tried the following query:
SELECT h.gid, h.location, h.start_timestamp, h.end_timestamp, i1.side,
i1.visibility, i2.position_id, i2.name, i2.item2_timestamp AS timestamp
FROM tablet_header AS h
LEFT OUTER JOIN table_item1 i1 on (i1.gid = h.gid)
LEFT OUTER JOIN table_item2 i2 on (i2.gid = i1.gid AND
i1.item1_timestamp = i2.item2_timestamp)
WHERE h.start_timestamp BETWEEN '2016-03-24 12:00:00'::timestamp AND now()::timestamp
The problem is that I'm losing some data from rows when item1_timestamp and item2_timestamp do not match.
So if I have in table_item1 and table_item2:
gid | item1_timestamp | side gid | item2_timestamp | name
---------------------------- -----------------------------------
1 | 17:00:00 | left 1 | 17:00:00 | charlie
1 | 17:00:05 | right 1 | 17:00:03 | frank
1 | 17:00:10 | left 1 | 17:00:06 | dee
I would want the final output to be:
gid | timestamp | side | name
-----------------------------
1 | 17:00:00 | left | charlie
1 | 17:00:03 | | frank
1 | 17:00:05 | right |
1 | 17:00:06 | | dee
1 | 17:00:10 | left |
based purely on the timestamp (and gid). Naturally I would have the header info in there too, but that's trivial.
I tried playing around with the query I posted used different JOINs and UNIONs, but I cannot seem to get it right. The one I posted gives the best results I could manage, but it's incomplete.
Side note: every minute or so there will be a new "event". So the gid will be unique to each event and the query needs to ensure that each dataset is paired with data from the same gid. Which is the reason for my i1.gid = h.gid lines. Data between different events should not be compared.
select t1.gid, t1.timestamp, t1.side, t2.name
from t1
left join t2 on t2.timestamp=t1.timestamp and t2.gid=t1.gid
union
select t1.gid, t1.timestamp, t1.side, t2.name
from t2
left join t1 on t2.timestamp=t1.timestamp and t2.gid=t1.gid
