View with derived value column - mysql

Question

I'm having some trouble trying to make a view with a calculated average column, for every movie row I need an average rating based on all the ratings for this movie in the rating table.
Movie table:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS streaming_db.movie(
id BIGINT NOT NULL auto_increment
,name VARCHAR (100)
,description VARCHAR (1000)
,PRIMARY KEY (id)
) engine = InnoDB;
Rating table:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS streaming_db.rating(
id BIGINT NOT NULL auto_increment
,rating_score DECIMAL(4, 2) NOT NULL
,comment VARCHAR (255) NULL
,id_profile BIGINT NOT NULL
,id_movie BIGINT NOT NULL
,PRIMARY KEY (id)
) engine = InnoDB;
Here's what I have so far:
CREATE VIEW streaming_db.midia
AS
SELECT name,
description
FROM streaming_db.movie a
INNER JOIN (SELECT avg(rating_score) AS averageRating from streaming_db.rating where
rating.id_movie = a.id);
It was telling me that a derived table needs its own alias, and I don't know if that really gives me the average per row.

Answer 1

You are attempting a correlated subquery in the FROM clause. Well, this is actually a real thing, called a lateral join.
But that is not your intention. Move the logic to the SELECT:
SELECT m.name, m.description,
(SELECT avg(rating_score)
FROM sistema_streaming_db.rating r
WHERE r.id_movie = m.id
) as averageRating
FROM streaming_db.movie m;
Note that I fixed the table aliases so they are abbreviations for the table names, which makes the query much easier to read.
