How to write the below query in stored proc in postgresql?
create table data1 as
select A.*,
case when score >=940 then 1
when score between 600 and 746 then 2
when bureau_score between 599 and 630 then 4 else 5 end as score_level,
case when band between -1 and 5 then 1
when band between 6 and 20 then 2
when band between 21 and 35 then 3 else 4 end as band_level
from data A;
Postgresql doen't have stored procedures as such, only functions, so.
If it's simple SQL you can simply wrap in in an SQL function definition.
create or replace function foo () returns void language sql as $$
create table data1 as
select A.*,
case when score >=940 then 1
when score between 600 and 746 then 2
when bureau_score between 599 and 630 then 4 else 5 end as score_level,
case when band between -1 and 5 then 1
when band between 6 and 20 then 2
when band between 21 and 35 then 3 else 4 end as band_level
from data A;
$$;
To call it do SELECT foo();

I'm looking to dynamically insert a set of columns from one table to another in PostgreSQL. What I think I'd like to do is read in a 'checklist' of column headings (those columns which exist in table 1 - the storage table), and if they exist in the export table (table 2) then insert them in all at once from table 1. Table 2 will be variable in its columns though - once imported ill drop it and import new data to be imported with potentially different column structure. So I need to import it based on the column names.
e.g.
Table 1. - The storage table
ID NAME YEAR LITH_AGE PROV_AGE SIO2 TIO2 CAO MGO COMMENTS

2 Mark 2005 2444 3444 63 8 2 3 comment2
3 Luke 2001 1000 1500 77 10 2 2 comment3
Table 2. - The export table
ID NAME MG# METHOD SIO2 TIO2 CAO MGO
1 Amy 4 Method1 65 10 5 5
2 Poe 3 Method2 63 8 2 3
3 Ben 2 Method3 77 10 2 2
As you can see the export table may include columns which do not exist in the storage table, so these would be ignored.
I want to insert all of these columns at once, as I've found if I do it individually by column it extends the number of rows each time on the insert (maybe someone can solve this issue instead? Currently I've written a function to check if a column name exists in table 2, if it does, insert it, but as said this extends the rows of the table every time and NULL the rest of the columns).
The INSERT line from my function:
EXECUTE format('INSERT INTO %s (%s) (SELECT %s::%s FROM %s);',_tbl_import, _col,_col,_type,_tbl_export);
As a type of 'code example' for my question:
EXECUTE FORMAT('INSERT INTO table1 (%s) (SELECT (%s) FROM table2)',columns)
where 'columns' would be some variable denoting the columns that exist in the export table that need to go into the storage table. This will be variable as table 2 will be different every time.
This would ideally update Table 1 as:
ID NAME YEAR LITH_AGE PROV_AGE SIO2 TIO2 CAO MGO COMMENTS

UPDATED answer
As my original answer did not meet requirement came out later but was asked to post an alternative example for information_schema solution so here it is.
I made two versions for solutions:
V1 - is equivalent to already given example using information_schema. But that solution relies on table1 column DEFAULTs. Meaning, if table1 column that does not exist at table2 does not have DEFAULT NULL then it will be filled with whatever the default is.
V2 - is modified to force 'NULL' in case of two table columns mismatch and does not inherit table1 own DEFAULTs
Version1:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION insert_into_table1_v1()
RETURNS void AS $main$
DECLARE
columns text;
BEGIN
SELECT string_agg(c1.attname, ',')
INTO columns
FROM pg_attribute c1
JOIN pg_attribute c2
ON c1.attrelid = 'public.table1'::regclass
AND c2.attrelid = 'public.table2'::regclass
AND c1.attnum > 0
AND c2.attnum > 0
AND NOT c1.attisdropped
AND NOT c2.attisdropped
AND c1.attname = c2.attname
AND c1.attname <> 'id';
-- Following is the actual result of query above, based on given data examples:
-- -[ RECORD 1 ]----------------------
-- string_agg | name,si02,ti02,cao,mgo
EXECUTE format(
' INSERT INTO table1 ( %1$s )
SELECT %1$s
FROM table2
',
columns
);
END;
$main$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
Version2:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION insert_into_table1_v2()
RETURNS void AS $main$
DECLARE
t1_cols text;
t2_cols text;
BEGIN
SELECT string_agg( c1.attname, ',' ),
string_agg( COALESCE( c2.attname, 'NULL' ), ',' )
INTO t1_cols,
t2_cols
FROM pg_attribute c1
LEFT JOIN pg_attribute c2
ON c2.attrelid = 'public.table2'::regclass
AND c2.attnum > 0
AND NOT c2.attisdropped
AND c1.attname = c2.attname
WHERE c1.attrelid = 'public.table1'::regclass
AND c1.attnum > 0
AND NOT c1.attisdropped
AND c1.attname <> 'id';
-- Following is the actual result of query above, based on given data examples:
-- t1_cols | t2_cols
-- --------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
-- name,year,lith_age,prov_age,si02,ti02,cao,mgo,comments | name,NULL,NULL,NULL,si02,ti02,cao,mgo,NULL
-- (1 row)
EXECUTE format(
' INSERT INTO table1 ( %s )
SELECT %s
FROM table2
',
t1_cols,
t2_cols
);
END;
$main$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

Hopefully this helps :)
I need to transpose columns to rows in postgres, below is the requirement.
Any help is appreciated.
Source table/data :
id class-1-male class-1-female class-2-male class-2-female class-3-male class-3-female
1 1 1 11 7 0 9
2 11 31 6 7 40 92
3 15 31 8 37 30 91
4 11 13 50 17 10 19
I want data in below format:
id class-type male female
1 class-1 1 1
2 class-1 11 31
3 class-1 15 31
4 class-1 11 13
1 class-2 11 7
2 class-2 6 7
3 class-2 8 37
4 class-2 50 17
1 class-3 0 9
2 class-3 40 92
3 class-3 30 91
4 class-3 10 19
If you wanted to do the opposite (which is really more common) you could use hte tablefunc contrib module. But this way, you can simply use UNION ALL and query each column separately:
SELECT id, 'class-1' AS class-type,
class-1-male AS male, class-1-female AS female
FROM your_table
UNION ALL
SELECT id, 'class-2' AS class-type,
class-2-male AS male, class-2-female AS female
FROM your_table
UNION ALL
SELECT id, 'class-3' AS class-type,
class-3-male AS male, class-3-female AS female
FROM your_table
If you have too many rows on this table, this may not be the best option, because it reads the entire dataset for each query, which means it read them all three times when it could read just once. Another option would be creating a function that returns the set:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION classes_transpose()
RETURNS TABLE(id int, class_type text, male int, female int)
LANGUAGE PLPGSQL
STABLE
AS $$
DECLARE
v RECORD;
BEGIN
FOR v IN SELECT * FROM your_table LOOP
id := v.id;
class_type := 'class-1';
male := v."class-1-male";
female := v."class-1-female";
RETURN NEXT;
class_type := 'class-2';
male := v."class-2-male";
female := v."class-2-female";
RETURN NEXT;
class_type := 'class-3';
male := v."class-3-male";
female := v."class-3-female";
RETURN NEXT;
END LOOP;
END;
$$;
Then:
SELECT * FROM classes_transpose();
I want to create a function which returns how many levels the boss is above the person(calling the function).
Here is the way i would like to do it, but i don't quite know how SQL syntax works
http://pastebin.com/dyDaGwf9
the table looks like this:
workerid name chefid
1 Bob
2 Alice 1
3 Joe 1
4 John 2
5 Dirk 4
6 Ralf 2
7 Lisa 1
8 Lyn 3
the final result upon calling the function should look like this
function call:
Select workerid, name, rankFunction(workerid) from workers;
workerid name rank
1 Bob 0
2 Alice 1
3 Joe 1
4 John 2
5 Dirk 3
6 Ralf 2
7 Lisa 1
8 Lyn 2
Would be great if somebody could shed some light,
Thanks!
You don't need a function for this, just a recursive query (available as of version 8.4):
WITH RECURSIVE chef as (
SELECT workerid, name, chefid, 0 AS rank FROM workers WHERE chefid is null
UNION ALL
SELECT workers.workerid, workers.name, workers.chefid, rank + 1
FROM workers JOIN chef ON workers .chefid = chef.workerid
)
SELECT workerid, name, rank FROM chef ORDER BY workerid;
Here you are, a simple recursion:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION rankFunction(worker_id int)
RETURNS int AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
temp_chefid int;
BEGIN
temp_chefid := (SELECT chefid from workers where workerid = worker_id);
IF(temp_chefid IS NULL) THEN
RETURN 0;
ELSE RETURN 1 + rankFunction(temp_chefid);
END IF;
END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE

Calculate a Running Total in SqlServer
I need to use values from previous row inorder to generate a cumulative value as shown below. Always for each Code for the year 2000 the starting Base is 100.
I need to ahieve this using tsql code.
id Code Yr Rate Base
1 4 2000 5 100
2 4 2001 7 107 (100+7)
3 4 2002 4 111 (107+4)

5 4 2004 10 129 (119+10)
6 5 2000 2 100
7 5 2001 3 103 (100+3)
8 5 2002 8 111 (103+8)
9 5 2003 5 116 (111+5)
10 5 2004 4 120 (116+4)
OK. We have table like this
CREATE Table MyTbl(id INT PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1,1), Code INT, Yr INT, Rate INT)
And we would like to calculate cumulative value by Code.
So we can use query like this:
1) recursion (requires more resources, but outputs the result as in the example)
with cte as
(SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER()OVER(PARTITION BY Code ORDER BY Yr ASC) rn
FROM MyTbl),
recursion as
(SELECT id,Code,Yr,Rate,rn, CAST(NULL as int) as Tmp_base, CAST('100' as varchar(25)) AS Base FROM cte
WHERE rn=1
UNION ALL
SELECT cte.id,cte.Code,cte.Yr,cte.Rate,cte.rn,
CAST(recursion.Base as int),
CAST(recursion.Base+cte.Rate as varchar(25))
FROM recursion JOIN cte ON recursion.Code=cte.Code AND recursion.rn+1=cte.rn
)
SELECT id,Code,Yr,Rate,
CAST(Base as varchar(10))+ISNULL(' ('+ CAST(Tmp_base as varchar(10))+'+'+CAST(Rate as varchar(10))+')','') AS Base
FROM recursion
ORDER BY 1
OPTION(MAXRECURSION 0)
2) or we can use a faster query without using recursion. but the result is impossible to generate the strings like '107 (100+7)' (only strings like '107')
SELECT *,
100 +
(SELECT ISNULL(SUM(rate),0) /*we need to calculate only the sum in subquery*/
FROM MyTbl AS a
WHERE
a.Code=b.Code /*the year in subquery equals the year in main query*/
AND a.Yr<b.Yr /*main feature in our subquery*/
) AS base
FROM MyTbl AS b
I use Oracle 10g and I have a table that stores a snapshot of data on a person for a given day. Every night an outside process adds new rows to the table for any person whose had any changes to their core data (stored elsewhere). This allows a query to be written using a date to find out what a person 'looked' like on some past day. A new row is added to the table even if only a single aspect of the person has changed--the implication being that many columns have duplicate values from slice to slice since not every detail changed in each snapshot.
Below is a data sample:
SliceID PersonID StartDt Detail1 Detail2 Detail3 Detail4 ...
1 101 08/20/09 Red Vanilla N 23
2 101 08/31/09 Orange Chocolate N 23
3 101 09/15/09 Yellow Chocolate Y 24
4 101 09/16/09 Green Chocolate N 24
5 102 01/10/09 Blue Lemon N 36
6 102 01/11/09 Indigo Lemon N 36
7 102 02/02/09 Violet Lemon Y 36
8 103 07/07/09 Red Orange N 12
9 104 01/31/09 Orange Orange N 12
10 104 10/20/09 Yellow Orange N 13
I need to write a query that pulls out time slices records where some pertinent bits, not the whole record, have changed. So, referring to the above, if I only want to know the slices in which Detail3 has changed from its previous value, then I would expect to only get rows having SliceID 1, 3 and 4 for PersonID 101 and SliceID 5 and 7 for PersonID 102 and SliceID 8 for PersonID 103 and SliceID 9 for PersonID 104.
I'm thinking I should be able to use some sort of Oracle Hierarchical Query (using CONNECT BY [PRIOR]) to get what I want, but I have not figured out how to write it yet. Perhaps YOU can help.
Thanks you for your time and consideration.
Here is my take on the LAG() solution, which is basically the same as that of egorius, but I show my workings ;)
SQL> select * from
2 (
3 select sliceid
4 , personid
5 , startdt
6 , detail3 as new_detail3
7 , lag(detail3) over (partition by personid
8 order by startdt) prev_detail3
9 from some_table
10 )
11 where prev_detail3 is null
12 or ( prev_detail3 != new_detail3 )
13 /
SLICEID PERSONID STARTDT N P
---------- ---------- --------- - -
1 101 20-AUG-09 N
3 101 15-SEP-09 Y N
4 101 16-SEP-09 N Y
5 102 10-JAN-09 N
7 102 02-FEB-09 Y N
8 103 07-JUL-09 N
9 104 31-JAN-09 N
7 rows selected.
SQL>
The point about this solution is that it hauls in results for 103 and 104, who don't have slice records where detail3 has changed. If that is a problem we can apply an additional filtration, to return only rows with changes:
SQL> with subq as (
2 select t.*
3 , row_number () over (partition by personid
4 order by sliceid ) rn
5 from
6 (
7 select sliceid
8 , personid
9 , startdt
10 , detail3 as new_detail3
11 , lag(detail3) over (partition by personid
12 order by startdt) prev_detail3
13 from some_table
14 ) t
15 where t.prev_detail3 is null
16 or ( t.prev_detail3 != t.new_detail3 )
17 )
18 select sliceid
19 , personid
20 , startdt
21 , new_detail3
22 , prev_detail3
23 from subq sq
24 where exists ( select null from subq x
25 where x.personid = sq.personid
26 and x.rn > 1 )
27 order by sliceid
28 /
SLICEID PERSONID STARTDT N P
---------- ---------- --------- - -

3 101 15-SEP-09 Y N

7 102 02-FEB-09 Y N

As egorius points out in the comments, the OP does want hits for all users, even if they haven't changed, so the first version of the query is the correct solution.
In addition to OMG Ponies' answer: if you need to query slices for all persons, you'll need partition by:
SELECT s.sliceid
, s.personid
FROM (SELECT t.sliceid,
t.personid,
t.detail3,
LAG(t.detail3) OVER (
PARTITION BY t.personid ORDER BY t.startdt
) prev_val
FROM t) s
WHERE (s.prev_val IS NULL OR s.prev_val != s.detail3)
I think you'll have better luck with the LAG function:
SELECT s.sliceid
FROM (SELECT t.sliceid,
t.personid,
t.detail3,
LAG(t.detail3) OVER (PARTITION BY t.personid ORDER BY t.startdt) 'prev_val'
FROM TABLE t) s
WHERE s.personid = 101
AND (s.prev_val IS NULL OR s.prev_val != s.detail3)
Subquery Factoring alternative:
WITH slices AS (
SELECT t.sliceid,
t.personid,
t.detail3,
LAG(t.detail3) OVER (PARTITION BY t.personid ORDER BY t.startdt) 'prev_val'
FROM TABLE t)
SELECT s.sliceid
FROM slices s
WHERE s.personid = 101
AND (s.prev_val IS NULL OR s.prev_val != s.detail3)
