I am trying to develop an enquiry management system for an institute.
I have 3 tables in mysql db.
leads_course_category table keeps course categories and has the columns: category_id, category_name, category_created_time, category_deleted.
leads_course_details table stores courses under categories and has the columns: course_id, course_category_id, course_name.
leads_enquiry_details table stores enquiry details and has the columns: enquiry_id, enquiry_name, leads_course_details_course_id, enquiry_deleted
I need to find the number of enquiries for each category.
I tried the following query:
SELECT category_name,COUNT(*) as COUNT
FROM leads_course_category
RIGHT JOIN leads_course_details
on category_id=leads_course_details.course_category_id
RIGHT JOIN `leads_enquiry_details`
on leads_course_details.course_id= leads_enquiry_details.leads_course_details_course_id
WHERE leads_enquiry_details.enquiry_deleted=1
GROUP BY leads_course_category.category_id
This query skips all the categories having null values, but I need to show that as count of zero.
Please help me to resolve this.
The condition enquiry_deleted = 1 must be moved to the ON clause:
select c.category_name, count(ed.enquiry_id) count
from leads_course_category c
left join leads_course_details cd on c.category_id = cd.course_category_id
left join leads_enquiry_details ed on cd.course_id = ed.leads_course_details_course_id and ed.enquiry_deleted = 1
group by c.category_id, c.category_name

I am using MySQL to get some additional information from database. I am trying to do widget bar:
Here is table structure:
My query:
SELECT * FROM `product` WHERE category in (SELECT name FROM category where id='5')
What i want is i need to display category names and products numbers.
But above query gives me empty result set. What am i doing wrong ?
Its only my assumption, since there is little info
This query gets a list of categories and for each adds a count of products having id of that category
select c.id, c.name, count(p.id) count
from category c
left join
product p
on p.category = c.id
group by c.id
You will get rows with category id, category name, product count
I have three tables as below, each product may belong to multiple categories.
PRODUCT TABLE AS P
1. ID
2. NAME
CATEGORY TABLE AS C
1. ID
2. NAME
RELATION TABLE AS R
1. ID
2. P_ID
3. C_ID
Now I want to get a list of all products in product table, and with their belonging category name display as well.
How do I write this query?
I can get the category ids pulled from the same query, but don't know how to get all the name pulled as well. Here's what I tried.
select p.*,y.*
from p
left join (select p_id,group_concat(c_id) as category_ids
from relation group by p_id) as y on p.id=y.p_id
Do both JOIN operations (to the relation table, and from there to the table containing the category names) and feed the result to your aggregation function (GROUP_CONCAT)
SELECT P.Name, GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT C.Name ORDER BY C.Name SEPARATOR '|') categories
FROM Product P
LEFT JOIN Relation R ON P.ID = R.P_ID
LEFT JOIN Category C ON R.C_ID = C.ID
GROUP BY P.ID, P.Name
This will give you one row per product with the categories separated by |.
This uses LEFT JOIN operations so it won't suppress products that have no categories.
Select P.Name, C.Name
From RELATION R Inner Join PRODUCT P
On R.P_ID=P.Id
Inner Join Category C
On C.Id=R.C_ID
This query will get you all the products, with their corresponding category.
I want to give you a small explanation about the difference between Inner Join and Left Join.
If we take as an example 2 tables :
TA(idA, description) and TB(idB, idA, description).
Select TA.description, TB.description
From TA Inner Join TB On TA.IdA = TB.IdA
will get only the rows in TA, that have a corresponding one in TB.
On the other side,
Select TA.description, TB.description
From TA Left Join TB On TA.IdA = TB.IdA
will get all the rows of TA and if the row in TA doesn't have a corresponding one in TB, TB.description for this row will be NULL.
Hope this helps!
I have a mysql table Products.
It contains the Columns "id,product_name,product_seller,price"
I am trying to create a PHP script to Insert/Update data in the table Products using the seller name (product_seller).
The issue
I don't know what mysql query to use in order to get: A list with All the products NO matter if the seller has it or not and if the seller has the products to give me the details (id,product_name,product_seller,price).
EXAMPLE of what i want to get:
1 - apples - seller A - 12
2 - banana - -
3 - oil - -
4 - dvd - seller A - 25
The product_name must be DISTINCT
Thanks in advance!
* Query must be something like "SELECT DISTINCT product_name FROM Products and let me know where Seller A has the product, at what price, what id what product WHERE seller_name = 'seller A'...yet, show me all products, n matter if seller has it"
Seems to be a straight forward subquery to get a unique list of products then an outer join to get the seller info.
SELECT A.ID, A.Product_name, B.product_Seller, B.Price
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT ID, Product_Name FROM products) A
LEFT JOIN Products B
on A.ID = B.ID
and B.product_Seller = 'seller A'
The LEFT JOIN will ensure you return all the products and only seller information related to the items for 'SELLER A'
SQL generally operates best on data SETS. So I first generate a set of unique IDs and products and then LEFT JOIN this to the sellers product data you desire. The left join ensures we keep all the items. The filtering of the seller MUST be on the JOIN itself and not in the where clause. Otherwise the left join in essence becomes an inner as the NULLS generated from the outer join are removed.
SELECT A.ID, A.Product_name, B.product_Seller, B.Price
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT ID, Product_Name FROM products) A
LEFT JOIN Products B
on A.ID = B.ID
WHERE B.product_Seller = 'seller A'
Wouldn't get the desired result. This is because the where clause is applied after the join so the items that are not associated to the seller would be excluded. Since you want those records, you must use a left join and apply the limit on the JOIN so the items not associated to the seller are returned.
When I initially started with SQL I had trouble with this type of logic. It wasn't until I considered data in terms of "SETS" and how those sets related, that how to solve these questions became easier.
try to use the
SELECT * FROM Products_Table ;
this will obtain all the table values
I posted a question about 2 weeks ago about 'one to many' relation between SQL tables. Now I have a bit of a different scenario. Basically, there are two tables - coffee_users and coffee_product_registrations. The latter is connected to coffee_users table with 'uid' column. So basically coffee_users.uid = coffee_product_registrations.uid
A single user can have multiple products registered.
What I want to do is to display some product information (from coffee_product_registrations) along with some user information (from coffee_users), BUT retrieve only those rows that have more than 1 product registrations.
So to simplify, here are the steps I need to take:
Join two tables
Select users that have multiple products registered
Display all their products along with their names and stuff
My current SQL query looks like this:
SELECT c.uid, c.name, cpr.model
FROM coffee_users c
JOIN coffee_product_registrations cpr on c.uid = cpr.uid
GROUP BY c.uid
HAVING COUNT(cpr.uid) > 1
This joins the two tables on 'uid' column but displays only 1 row for each user. It selects just users that have multiple products registered.
Now I need to take these IDs and select ALL the products from coffee_product_registrations based on them.
I cannot figure out how to put this in one query.
Replace cpr.*, c.* with columns which you want to extract feom the query
Try this:
SELECT cpr.*, c.*
FROM coffee_product_registrations cpr
INNER JOIN coffee_users c ON c.uid = cpr.uid
INNER JOIN (SELECT cpr.uid
FROM coffee_product_registrations cpr
GROUP BY cpr.uid
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT cpr.productId) > 1
) AS A ON c.uid = A.uid;
I have an interesting challenge... I have two tables, products and users.
products contains 2 columns, user_id and current_bidder, which hold two different IDs from the users table.
I would like to select all columns from products, and the name and rating from the users table for each user_id and current_bidder.
Essentially, I'm trying select columns from two different rows on a joined table, while disambiguating their names.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Join to the user table twice, and give each copy a different alias. Something like this:
select p.name, p.weight, owner.name, bidder.name
from product p
join user owner
on ...
join user bidder
on ...
The nice way to avoid ambiguity between columns is to add an ALIAS on it.
SELECT a.*, -- selects all records from products
b.name AS user_name, -- user_name is an alias of users.name (user_id)
c.name AS bidder_name -- user_name is an alias of users.name (current_bidder)
FROM products a
LEFT JOIN users b
ON a.user_id = b.id
LEFT JOIN users c
ON a.current_bidder = c.id
The reason why I used LEFT JOIN is because I assumed that some products has no bidder yet. If INNER JOIN was used, product will never be shown on the result until there's a bidder on it.
