I have a table where I extract some values, one column values can contain
'FLSD202-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN/UM/H7/SCT'
I want to split them become
FLSD202 AS first column
-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN AS Second column
/UM/H7/SCT AS third column
here my script but i can't get the result as i want
SELECT 'FLSD202-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN/UM/H7/SCT', SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX('FLXA202-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN/UM/H7/SCT', '-',1), '-', -1) FirstColumn,
CONCAT('-', SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX('FLSD202-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN/UM/H7/SCT', '/',1), '/', -1), '-',-1)) SecondColumn,
CONCAT('/', SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX('FLSD202-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN/UM/H7/SCT', '/',3), '/', -1)) ThirdColumn
I want to use this for ALL values, not just one field..
And the '-'(dash) is dynamic and '/'(slash) is dynamic, ex :
SSS145-SS3/POP, KEEE-CDE0/NO/SA, WXAE-C-D/E/G, SAD-SEU-SFX/OPS
Thanks
I think below code will help you to complete your requirement.
SET #a = 'FLSD202-D-B-D-AB-C1-NN-A-N-LA-J-NN/UM/H7/SCT';
SET #dash_start_position = LOCATE('-',#a);
SET #slash_start_position = LOCATE('/',#a);
SELECT SUBSTRING(#a, 1, #dash_start_position-1) as First, IF(#slash_start_position IS NOT NULL AND #slash_start_position > 0, SUBSTRING(#a, #dash_start_position, #slash_start_position - #dash_start_position), SUBSTRING(#a, #dash_start_position)) as Second,SUBSTRING(#a, #slash_start_position) as Third;
I have a table with Boolean values (0 and 1 only) that needs to be CSV-ed to a client. I know I can do 1 replace like this:
SELECT REPLACE(email, '%40', '#'),
REPLACE(name,'%20', ' '),
REPLACE(icon_clicked, 1, 'Yes')
FROM myTable
WHERE id > 1000;
This will convert all the values of 1 to 'Yes', but how to do this in a single query for both 1 => Yes and 0 => No so Boolean result is stored in a single column? I tried to do this:
SELECT REPLACE(email, '%40', '#'),
REPLACE(name,'%20', ' '),
REPLACE(icon_clicked, 1, 'Yes'),
REPLACE(icon_clicked, 0, 'No')
FROM myTable
WHERE id > 1000;
But this query created an additional column for the 'No' string replace (so final result had 4 columns, email, name, icon_clicked->yes, icon_clicked->no)
One way is to nest REPLACE:
SELECT REPLACE(REPLACE(icon_clicked, 0, 'No'), 1, 'Yes')), ...
FROM myTable
...
or use CASE WHEN (this will work for most RDBMS comparing to IF function which is MySQL related):
SELECT CASE WHEN icon_clicked THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END, ...
FROM myTable
...

EDIT:
There is also one nice way utilizing ELT:
SELECT icon_clicked,
ELT(FIELD(icon_clicked,0,1),'No','Yes'),
ELT(icon_clicked + 1, 'No', 'Yes')
FROM mytable

No need to use nested Replace or Case statement. Try using IF, which is way simpler
SELECT
icon_clicked,
IF(icon_clicked,'Yes','No')
FROM myTable

I've looked through a few different post trying to find a solution for this. I have a column that contains descriptions that follow the following format:
String<Numeric>
However the column isn't limited to one set of the previous mentioned format it could be something like
UNI<01> JPG<84>
JPG<84> UNI<01>
JPG<84>
UNI<01>
And other variations without any controlled pattern.
What I am needing to do is extract the number between <> into a separate column in another table based on the string before the <>. So UNI would qualify the following numeric to go to a certain table.column, while JPG would qualify to another table etc. I have seen functions to extract the numeric but not qualifying and only pulling the numeric if it is prefaced with a given qualifier string.
Based on the scope limitation mentioned in the question's comments that only one type of token (Foo, Bar, Blat, etc.) needs to be found at a time: you could use an expression in a Derived Column to find the token of interest and then extract the value between the arrows.
For example:
FINDSTRING([InputColumn], #[User::SearchToken] + "<", 1) == 0)?
NULL(DT_WSTR, 1) :
SUBSTRING([InputColumn],
FINDSTRING([InputColumn], #[User::SearchToken] + "<", 1)
+ LEN(#[User::SearchToken]) + 1,
FINDSTRING(
SUBSTRING([InputColumn],
FINDSTRING([InputColumn], #[User::SearchToken] + "<", 1)
+ LEN(#[User::SearchToken]) + 1,
LEN([InputColumn])
), ">", 1) - 1
)
First, the expression checks whether the token specified in #[User::SearchToken] is used in the current row. If it is, SUBSTRING is used to output the value between the arrows. If not, NULL is returned.
The assumption is made that no token's name will end with text matching the name of another token. Searching for token Bar will match Bar<123> and FooBar<123>. Accommodating Bar and FooBar as distinct tokens is possible but the requisite expression will be much more complex.
You could use an asynchronous Script Component that outputs a row with type and value columns for each type<value> token contained in the input string. Pass the output of this component through a Conditional Split to direct each type to the correct destination (e.g. table).
Pro: This approach gives you the option of using one data flow to process all tag types simultaneously vs. requiring one data flow per tag type.
Con: A Script Component is involved, which it sounds like you'd prefer to avoid.
Sample Script Component Code
private readonly string pattern = #"(?<type>\w+)<(?<value>\d+)>";
public override void Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row)
{
foreach (Match match in Regex.Matches(Row.Data, pattern, RegexOptions.ExplicitCapture))
{
Output0Buffer.AddRow();
Output0Buffer.Type = match.Groups["type"].Value;
Output0Buffer.Value = match.Groups["value"].Value;
}
}
Note: Script Component will need an output created with two columns (perhaps named Type and Value) and then have the output's SynchronousInputID property set to None).
I ended up writing a CTE for a view to handle the data manipulation and then handled the joins and other data pieces in the SSIS package.
;WITH RCTE (Status_Code, lft, rgt, idx)
AS ( SELECT a.Status_code
,LEFT(a.Description, CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(' ', a.Description)=0 THEN LEN(a.Description) ELSE CHARINDEX(' ', a.Description)-1 END)
,SUBSTRING(a.Description, CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(' ', a.Description)=0 THEN LEN(a.Description) ELSE CHARINDEX(' ', a.Description)-1 END + 1, DATALENGTH(a.Description))
,0
FROM [disp] a WHERE NOT( Description IS NULL OR Description ='')
UNION ALL
SELECT r.Status_Code
,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(' ', r.rgt) = 0 THEN r.rgt ELSE LEFT(r.rgt, CHARINDEX(' ', r.rgt) - 1) END
,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(' ', r.rgt) > 0 THEN SUBSTRING(r.rgt, CHARINDEX(' ', r.rgt) + 1, DATALENGTH(r.rgt)) ELSE '' END
,idx + 1
FROM RCTE r
WHERE DATALENGTH(r.rgt) > 0
)
SELECT Status_Code
-- ,lft,rgt -- Uncomment to see whats going on
,SUBSTRING(lft,0, CHARINDEX('<',lft)) AS [Description]
,CASE WHEN ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(lft, CHARINDEX('<',lft)+1, LEN(lft)-CHARINDEX('<',lft)-1)) >0
THEN CAST (SUBSTRING(lft, CHARINDEX('<',lft)+1, LEN(lft)-CHARINDEX('<',lft)-1) AS INT) ELSE NULL END as Value
FROM RCTE
where lft <> ''
I'm don't have a lot of knowledge of MySql (or SQL in general) so sorry for the noobness.
I'm trying to update a bunch of String entries this way:
Lets say we have this:
commands.firm.pm.Stuff
Well I want to convert that into:
commands.firm.pm.print.Stuff
Meaning, Add the .print after pm, before "Stuff" (where Stuff can be any Alphanumerical String).
How would I do this with a MySql Query? I'm sure REGEXP has to be used, but I'm not sure how to go about it.
Thanks
Try something like this. It finds the last period and inserts your string there:
select insert(s, length(s) - instr(reverse(s), '.') + 1, 0, '.print')
from (
select 'commands.firm.pm.Stuff' as s
) a
To update:
update MyTable
set MyColumn = insert(MyColumn, length(MyColumn) - instr(reverse(MyColumn), '.') + 1, 0, '.print')
where MyColumn like 'commands.firm.pm.%'
Perhaps use a str_replace to replace commands.firm.pm to commands.firm.pm.print
$original_str = "commands.firm.pm.15hhkl15k0fak1";
str_replace("commands.firm.pm", "commands.firm.pm.print", $original_str);
should output: commands.firm.pm.print.15hhkl15k0fak1
then update your table with the new value...How to do it all in one query (get column value and do the update), I do not know. All I can think of is you getting the column value in one query, doing the replacement above, and then updating the column with the new value in a second query.
To update rows that end in '.Stuff' only:
UPDATE TableX
SET Column = CONCAT( LEFT( CHAR_LENGTH(Column) - CHAR_LENGTH('.Stuff') )
, '.print'
, '.Stuff'
)
WHERE Column LIKE '%.Stuff'
To update all rows - by appending .print just before the last dot .:
UPDATE TableX
SET Column = CONCAT( LEFT( CHAR_LENGTH(Column)
- CHAR_LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(Column, '.', -1))
)
, 'print.'
, SUBSTRING_INDEX(Column, '.', -1)
)
WHERE Column LIKE '%.%'
I am trying to extract a certain part of a column that is between delimiters.
e.g. find foo in the following
test 'esf :foo: bar
So in the above I'd want to return foo, but all the regexp functions only return true|false,
is there a way to do this in MySQL
Here ya go, bud:
SELECT
SUBSTR(column,
LOCATE(':',column)+1,
(CHAR_LENGTH(column) - LOCATE(':',REVERSE(column)) - LOCATE(':',column)))
FROM table
Yea, no clue why you're doing this, but this will do the trick.
By performing a LOCATE, we can find the first ':'. To find the last ':', there's no reverse LOCATE, so we have to do it manually by performing a LOCATE(':', REVERSE(column)).
With the index of the first ':', the number of chars from the last ':' to the end of the string, and the CHAR_LENGTH (don't use LENGTH() for this), we can use a little math to discover the length of the string between the two instances of ':'.
This way we can peform a SUBSTR and dynamically pluck out the characters between the two ':'.
Again, it's gross, but to each his own.
This should work if the two delimiters only appear twice in your column. I am doing something similar...
substring_index(substring_index(column,':',-2),':',1)
A combination of LOCATE and MID would probably do the trick.
If the value "test 'esf :foo: bar" was in the field fooField:
MID( fooField, LOCATE('foo', fooField), 3);
I don't know if you have this kind of authority, but if you have to do queries like this it might be time to renormalize your tables, and have these values in a lookup table.
With only one set of delimeters, the following should work:
SUBSTR(
SUBSTR(fooField,LOCATE(':',fooField)+1),
1,
LOCATE(':',SUBSTR(fooField,LOCATE(':',fooField)+1))-1
)
mid(col,
locate('?m=',col) + char_length('?m='),
locate('&o=',col) - locate('?m=',col) - char_length('?m=')
)
A bit compact form by replacing char_length(.) with the number 3
mid(col, locate('?m=',col) + 3, locate('&o=',col) - locate('?m=',col) - 3)
the patterns I have used are '?m=' and '&o'.
select mid(col from locate(':',col) + 1 for
locate(':',col,locate(':',col)+1)-locate(':',col) - 1 )
from table where col rlike ':.*:';
If you know the position you want to extract from as opposed to what the data itself is:
$colNumber = 2; //2nd position
$sql = "REPLACE(SUBSTRING(SUBSTRING_INDEX(fooField, ':', $colNumber),
LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(fooField,
':',
$colNumber - 1)) + 1)";
This is what I am extracting from (mainly colon ':' as delimiter but some exceptions), as column theline255 in table loaddata255:
23856.409:0023:trace:message:SPY_EnterMessage (0x2003a) L"{#32769}" [0081] WM_NCCREATE sent from self wp=00000000 lp=0023f0b0
This is the MySql code (It quickly did what I want, and is straight forward):
select
time('2000-01-01 00:00:00' + interval substring_index(theline255, '.', 1) second) as hhmmss
, substring_index(substring_index(theline255, ':', 1), '.', -1) as logMilli
, substring_index(substring_index(theline255, ':', 2), ':', -1) as logTid
, substring_index(substring_index(theline255, ':', 3), ':', -1) as logType
, substring_index(substring_index(theline255, ':', 4), ':', -1) as logArea
, substring_index(substring_index(theline255, ' ', 1), ':', -1) as logFunction
, substring(theline255, length(substring_index(theline255, ' ', 1)) + 2) as logText
from loaddata255
and this is the result:
# LogTime, LogTimeMilli, LogTid, LogType, LogArea, LogFunction, LogText
'06:37:36', '409', '0023', 'trace', 'message', 'SPY_EnterMessage', '(0x2003a) L\"{#32769}\" [0081] WM_NCCREATE sent from self wp=00000000 lp=0023f0b0'
This one looks elegant to me. Strip all after n-th separator, rotate string, strip everything after 1. separator, rotate back.
select
reverse(
substring_index(
reverse(substring_index(str,separator,substrindex)),
separator,
1)
);
For example:
select
reverse(
substring_index(
reverse(substring_index('www.mysql.com','.',2)),
'.',
1
)
);
you can use the substring / locate function in 1 command
here is a mice tutorial:
http://infofreund.de/mysql-select-substring-2-different-delimiters/
The command as describes their should look for u:
**SELECT substr(text,Locate(' :', text )+2,Locate(': ', text )-(Locate(' :', text )+2)) FROM testtable**
where text is the textfield which contains "test 'esf :foo: bar"
So foo can be fooooo or fo - the length doesnt matter :).
