Replace substring from an table with an stringified value of another table - mysql

So I have 2 tables and one contains an string with an ID I want to replace with an string by another table.
I came up with this SQL, which should work, but it seems like an LEFT JOIN isn't allowed in this case.
UPDATE sales_channel_api_context AS api
SET api.payload = REPLACE(
api.payload,
SUBSTRING(
api.payload,
LOCATE('paymentMethodId":"', api.payload)+18,
32
),
LOWER(HEX(c.default_payment_method_id))
)
LEFT JOIN customer AS c
ON c.id = api.customer_id
WHERE api.payload LIKE '%paymentMethodId%' AND api.customer_id IS NOT NULL;
Does anyone know an SQL Query that does exactly this, without creating another table?
An temp table can be used but an new permanent table is no solution.

ChatGPT gave me a working solution and it is as follow:
UPDATE sales_channel_api_context
JOIN customer c ON c.id = sales_channel_api_context.customer_id
SET payload =
CASE
WHEN payload LIKE '%paymentMethodId%' THEN
REPLACE(
payload,
SUBSTRING(
payload,
LOCATE('paymentMethodId":"', payload) + 18,
32
),
LOWER(HEX(c.default_payment_method_id))
)
ELSE payload
END
WHERE sales_channel_api_context.customer_id IS NOT NULL;

Missing text from <memo> field in table in report

I have multiple models in Sparx Enterprise Architect in file-based, i.e. using MS access.
I'm using a custom template to populate a table with data from object's properties, including some with <memo> fields.
This is the query i'm using in the template fragment:
SELECT obj.object_id,
obj.Stereotype,
objp.Property as Prop,
switch(objp.Value = '<memo>', objp.Notes, objp.Value LIKE '{*}',
NULL, 1=1, objp.Value) AS Val,
(SELECT tobj2.ea_guid & tobj2.Name FROM t_object tobj2 WHERE
tobj2.ea_guid = objp.Value) AS [Obj-Hyperlink]
FROM t_object obj
INNER JOIN t_objectproperties objp
ON (obj.object_id = objp.object_id)
WHERE obj.object_id = #OBJECTID# AND obj.Stereotype='Data-
Stream' AND objp.Property NOT IN ('isEncapsulated')
ORDER BY objp.Property ASC;
I found that the when these fields are longer than 249 chars I get an error message when generating the reports and the cell in the generated table is simply empty. This is also noticeable with a query:
The error I'm getting states:
"Error Processing xml document: an invalid character was found in text context"
Is there any workarround to enable including the <memo> fields' data with more than 249 chars in the reports?
Any help is much appreciated.
I've found a workaround for this by joining two queries with a "Union all". The first query will handle the non-memo fields with the switch function and the second one the memo fields without the switch function.
select
obj.object_id,
obj.Stereotype,
objp.Property as Prop,
objp.Notes AS Val,
(
SELECT
tobj2.ea_guid & tobj2.Name
FROM
t_object tobj2
WHERE
tobj2.ea_guid = objp.Value
) AS [Obj-Hyperlink]
from
t_objectproperties objp
left join t_object obj on (obj.object_id = objp.object_ID)
where
obj.object_id = #OBJECTID#
AND obj.Stereotype = 'Data-Stream'
AND objp.Property NOT IN ('isEncapsulated')
AND objp.Value = "<memo>"
UNION ALL
SELECT
obj2.object_id,
obj2.Stereotype,
objp2.Property as Prop,
switch(
objp2.Value LIKE '{*}', NULL, 1 = 1, objp2.Value
) AS Val,
(
SELECT
tobj2.ea_guid & tobj2.Name
FROM
t_object tobj2
WHERE
tobj2.ea_guid = objp2.Value
) AS [Obj-Hyperlink]
FROM
t_object obj2
INNER JOIN t_objectproperties objp2 ON (obj2.object_id = objp2.object_id)
WHERE
obj2.object_id = #OBJECTID#
AND obj2.Stereotype = 'Data-Stream'
AND objp2.Property NOT IN ('isEncapsulated')
and objp2.Value <> "<memo>"
order by
3 asc;
Thanks a lot #geertbellekens for your comment which was crucial to find this solution.

How to perform a parametrized raw query in Django?

I'm reading the official Django documentation, but I can't find an answer to my question.
Right now I have this query implemented, working with a custom MariaDB connector for Django:
results = []
cursor = get_cursor()
try:
sql="SELECT a.*, COALESCE( NULLIF(a.aa, '.'), NULLIF(a.gen, '.') ) AS variant, b.*, c.* FROM `db-dummy`.sp_gen_data c JOIN `db-dummy`.gen_info a ON a.record_id = c.gen_id JOIN `db-dummy`.sp_data b ON b.record_id = c.sp_id WHERE a.gene_name LIKE concat(?, '%') AND a.report_notation LIKE concat('%', ?, '%') AND b.sp_id LIKE concat(?, '%');"
data = (gen, var, sp)
cursor.execute(sql, data)
except mariadb.Error as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
columns = [column[0] for column in cursor.description]
results = []
for row in cursor.fetchall():
results.append(dict(zip(columns, row)))
return results
It works, but now I need to adapt this query to the django's default MySQL backend.
What I've tried:
results = []
cursor = get_cursor()
sql="SELECT a.*, COALESCE( NULLIF(a.aa, '.'), NULLIF(a.gen, '.') ) AS variant, b.*, c.* FROM `db-dummy`.sp_gen_data c JOIN `db-dummy`.gen_info a ON a.record_id = c.gen_id JOIN `db-dummy`.sp_data b ON b.record_id = c.sp_id WHERE a.gene_name LIKE %s AND a.report_notation LIKE %s AND b.sp_id LIKE %s;"
data = ('{}%'.format(gen), '{}%'.format(var), '{}%'.format(sp))
cursor.execute(sql, data)
columns = [column[0] for column in cursor.description]
results = []
for row in cursor.fetchall():
results.append(dict(zip(columns, row)))
return results
So basically what I had to change to make it work was LIKE concat(?, '%') for LIKE %s.
The problem is, for the a.report_notation LIKE concat('%', ?, '%') part, I do not know how to convert it to something that Django can interpret.
Any ideas?
Your first query should be fine just adjusted to match the format that Django expects.
First, replace ? with %s to pass parameters to the query
Second, replace % with %% as a single percent is an "escape" character and you need to escape the escape char
DOCS
Here's your original query truncated to show an example of how it could work
sql="... WHERE a.gene_name LIKE concat(%s, '%%') AND a.report_notation LIKE concat('%%', %s, '%%') AND b.sp_id LIKE concat(%s, '%%');"
data = (gen, var, sp)
cursor.execute(sql, data)

MySQL Update based on a query in another table

I want to update a table with a query from another table.
I want to get mixed informations from a combination of two tables.
And then update one of the two tables with them.
Here is what I did :
UPDATE commande as C,
(
SELECT CONCAT (input_hauteur_sous_collecteur, ' x ', input_largeur_hors_tout, ' x ', input_epaisseur, ' - ', input_pas_ailettes)
AS 'ligne_sage'
FROM commande as C, faisceaux_ta as F
WHERE C.commande_type_faisceaux = 'TA'
AND C.commande_id_faisceaux = F.id
) AS src
SET
C.ligne_sage = src.ligne_sage
WHERE
C.commande_type_faisceaux = "TA"
/* And I got MySQL running the command and never ending without error notification... */
EDIT : Actually it finally works in more than 5 minutes, the problem is that I have the same values (first line of the SELECT result table) in each lines...
What shall I do to make it work ?
(the SELECT CONCAT subquery is properly working)
You got this because you didn't filter results between tables. You need to add and filter in the where clause. Something like (see last line). I don't have your tables defs :-(
UPDATE commande as C,
(
SELECT CONCAT (input_hauteur_sous_collecteur, ' x ', input_largeur_hors_tout, ' x ', input_epaisseur, ' - ', input_pas_ailettes)
AS 'ligne_sage'
FROM commande as C, faisceaux_ta as F
WHERE C.commande_type_faisceaux = 'TA'
AND C.commande_id_faisceaux = F.id
) AS src
SET
C.ligne_sage = src.ligne_sage
WHERE
C.commande_type_faisceaux = "TA"
AND c.commandId = src.commandId

While loop for selecting field names?

I have a nasty, nasty data layout that I am forced to work with. I finally got a working query using C# and a for loop executing the same query over and over but adjusting which fields are called, but now I am wondering if it is possible to do it with a while loop. I am getting an error, and I am not sure if it is because I am using Faircom / C-tree as the database, or if there is something wrong with my query. I am normally a Mysql user.
the table has 20 fields I care about and want to extract into a csv list. They are codetype1-codetype20 and I want it to be something like value1, value2, value3... where as it is now I get them all back one at a time. Trouble is that codetype1 is dependent on another field to determine where I go look for the info on that code, which is why the case statements.
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS proc_loop_test;
CREATE PROCEDURE proc_loop_test()
SET #index = 1;
WHILE(#index < 21) DO

apptid AS a_reference_id,

END;
I have never used a while loop, and while I understand somewhat I am supposed to select this to go INTO something, do I need to create a temp table, or can it all just be stored in memory till the end of the loop and returned.
For what it is worth, the entire SELECT query works in C# when you replace the #index with concatenating format " . index . "
Based on the information that you have provided, it is strongly suggested that you reach out to your vendor for this. You're attempting to create a stored procedure, however, using a mySQL proprietary syntax. Stored procedure support is unique to each database vendor. FairCom's c-treeACE SQL actually uses Java for cross platform support and .NET for Windows.
https://docs.faircom.com/doc/jspt/#cover.htm
Stored procedure development requires a strong knowledge of the database layout which is highly application dependent. In this case, many legacy application dependencies may be involved. Again, your best source of information will be your application vendor.

Conditional Join: don't join on null

I have relationships that might not necessarily exist (they could be optional i.e. null); for example, a image may not have an address so it may be null.
I am unsure how to not return all null values.
Is there some condition I can put in place on the join that says if the address is null don't do a join and don't return all the null columns?
SELECT im.title, im.alias_title, im.description, im.main_image, im.hits,
im.show_comment, im.created_on, im.date_taken, im.account_type_id,
c.make, c.model, ad.address_line_1, ad.address_line_2,
spc.state_province_county, tvc.town_village_city, co.country,
ge.latitude, ge.longitude, ge.zoom, ge.yaw, ge.pitch,
us.first_name, us.surname, us.user_set_online, ut.username,
ut.account_type_id, aty.`type`, ufy.realname, ufy.location,
ufy.location, ufy.account_type_id
FROM image im
INNER JOIN user us
ON im.user_id = us.id
LEFT JOIN user_type ut
ON us.id = ut.user_id
LEFT JOIN user_flickr_youtube ufy
ON ut.id = ufy.user_type_id
LEFT JOIN account_type aty
ON ut.account_type_id =aty.id
LEFT JOIN address ad
ON im.address_id = ad.id
LEFT JOIN state_province_county spc
ON ad.state_province_county_id = spc.id
LEFT JOIN town_village_city tvc
ON ad.town_village_city_id =tvc.id
LEFT JOIN country co
ON ad.country_id =co.id
LEFT JOIN geolocation ge
ON im.geolocation_id = ge.id
LEFT JOIN camera c
ON im.camera_id = c.id
WHERE im.alias_title = 'test'
AND im.approved = 'Yes'
AND im.visible = '1'
LIMIT 1;
Is there some condition i can put in place on the join that says if the address is null dont do a join and dont bring me back all the null columns
Yes; you can run a JOIN instead of a LEFT JOIN. But that won't simply exclude the address if it is NULL, it will ignore the whole row altogether.
Usually this kind of situation is either handled by supplying a default value, possibly empty, for example directly in MySQL
SELECT
...COALESCE(ad.address_line_1,'(no address)') AS address_line_1,
COALESCE(ad.address_line_2,'') AS address_line_2, ...
or it is handled by the application:
if row['address_line_1']:
result = result + ("<td class=\"address\">%s</td>" % ( row['address_line_1'] ))
...
This also because a query could potentially return not one record, but several, and of these, some might have a NULL colum and some might not.
UPDATE
There is a way, but it's likely to make milk go sour in cows fifty miles downrange.
This is a proof of concept, on a MUCH smaller query and table, and takes advantage of the possibility of dynamically building a query.
First of all we have our query WHERE condition, here represented by "id = 1". We want to have the name column if the name column is not NULL.
SELECT #address := COALESCE(MIN(',name'),'') FROM client WHERE name IS NOT NULL AND id = 1;
This will return an empty string if the selected column is NULL. Otherwise it will return a comma and the name of that column.
This is the statement that in your case will be humongous, given your query. It contains the same WHERE as before, without the request that the name be NULL. And the field list is now dynamic.
SELECT #string := CONCAT('SELECT id', #address, ' FROM client WHERE id = 1');
Except that #string is, well, a string. To execute it as a query we do
PREPARE query FROM #string;
EXECUTE query;
DEALLOCATE PREPARE query;
How this might interact with your application, I do not dare fathom. I have tried an implementation in PHP on an expendable VM :-), cycling between the values of 1 and 3 (one row has a NULL name, one hasn't).
<?php
// Connect to this VM's local DB
mysql_connect('localhost','root','') or die("Cannot connect");
mysql_select_db('test');
foreach(array(1, 3) as $id)
{
mysql_query("SELECT #address := COALESCE(MIN(',name'),'') FROM client WHERE name IS NOT NULL AND id = $id;");
mysql_query("SELECT #string := CONCAT('SELECT id', #address, ' FROM client WHERE id = ', $id);");
mysql_query("PREPARE query FROM #string;");
$exec = mysql_query("EXECUTE query;");
while($tuple = mysql_fetch_assoc($exec))
{
print implode(" | ", $tuple) . "\n";
}
mysql_query("DEALLOCATE PREPARE query;");
}
?>
The answer seems to indicate it's working:
