A simple select * from mytable will return below rows. I don't know how to draw table in post so I am adding the image
As I mentioned in the question title:
(i) show first n rows sorted by one column (can be achieved using order by)
(ii) but they should be unique by another column (unique by collectionID column)
select * from mytable
order by lastAccessTime DESC;
this sorts the table in descending order according to their lastAccessTime as shown in below image:
Now I want to filter these rows according to their collectionID. So only 1 row per collectionID. I have added the image. The strikethrough rows should be removed.
Also, First n rows (lets say 30) should be returned.
I am using Android Room ORM which uses SQLite but to get the desired result set I have to write the correct query.
I think you need a window function filter here. Which will assign a row number based on collectionID and then you can just fetch only 1 row per collectionID. You may give a try to -
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY collectionID ORDER BY ID DESC) RN
FROM mytable) T
WHERE RN = 1
LIMIT 30;
The key idea is to "filter" the data with one query which is the source of another query. A window function can be used as in the other answer, but a basic sub-query is also sufficient:
SELECT *
FROM mytable
INNER JOIN
(SELECT Max(id) AS singleID, collectionID
FROM mytable
GROUP BY collectionID) AS filter
ON mytable.id = filter.singleID
ORDER BY lastAccessTime DESC
LIMIT 30;
here is my query
select *
from table
where id in ( select string_agg(CAST(id as varchar), '","') FROM table)
string_agg() is completely useless and unnecessary for that:
select *
from table_one
where id in (select id FROM other_table)
I assume you are doing that for two different tables, otherwise that would be a very expensive way of writing: select * from table where id is not null
How to bind 15 rows from SQL Server into a gridview with a condition and condition is that on every page index should be bind next 15 rows, means a query should be fired for retrieving next 15 rows (I don't want to retrieve all rows from the table in one time).
How can I implement any query or procedure to do it? Please help me
You need to use pagination with sql server
Declare #From int=1
Declare #To int=15
WITH CTETable AS
(
SELECT ID, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ID) AS RowNum
FROM MyTable
)
SELECT *
FROM CTETable
WHERE RowNum BETWEEN #From AND #To
You need to pass #From and #To vales as 1,15...16,30...etc from front end to fetch subsequent records
Use CTE and OFFSET:
Declare #RecordIndex INT=1 ---Start Row No
Declare #PageSize INT=15 ----No of Rows to fetch
;WITH CTE_Results
AS (
SELECT
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Id) AS ROWNUM,
Count(*) over () AS TotalCount,
*
FROM TableName
)
Select * from CTE_Results
ORDER BY ROWNUM
OFFSET (#RecordIndex) ROWS
FETCH NEXT #PageSize ROWS ONLY;

I am trying to use an Insert, Sequence and Select * to work together.
INSERT INTO BRK_INDV
Select * from (Select brk_seq.NEXTVAL as INDV_SEQ, a.*
FROM (select to_date(to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY') BUSINESS_DAY, to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'hh24') src_hour,
CASE tran_type
WHEN 'V' THEN 'Visa'
WHEN 'M' THEN 'MasterCard'
ELSE tran_type
end text,
tran_type, count(*) as count
from DLY_STATS
where 1=1
AND to_date(to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY') = '09-FEB-2015'
group by to_date(to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY'),to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'hh24'),tran_type order by src_hour)a);
This gives me the following error:
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-02287: sequence number not allowed here
I tried to remove the order by and still the same error.
However, if I only run
Select brk_seq.NEXTVAL as INDV_SEQ, a.*
FROM (select to_date(to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY') BUSINESS_DAY, to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'hh24') src_hour,
CASE tran_type
WHEN 'V' THEN 'Visa'
WHEN 'M' THEN 'MasterCard'
ELSE tran_type
end text,
tran_type, count(*) as count
from DLY_STATS
where 1=1
AND to_date(to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY') = '09-FEB-2015'
group by to_date(to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY'),to_char(REQUEST_DATETIME,'hh24'),tran_type order by src_hour)a;
It shows me proper entries. Then, why is select * not working for that?
Kindly help.
I see what you're trying to do. You want to insert rows into the BRK_INDV table in a particular order. The sequence number, which I assume will be the primary key of BRK_INDV, will be generated sequentially in the sorted order of the input rows.
You are working with a relational database. One of the first characteristics we all learn about a relational database is that the order of the rows in a table is insignificant. That's just a fancy word for fugitaboutit.
You cannot assume that a select * from table will return the rows in the same order they were written. It might. It might for quite a long time. Then something -- the number of rows, the grouping of some column values, the phase of the moon -- something will change and you will get them out in a seemingly totally random order.
If you want order, it must be imposed in the query, not the insert.
Here's the statement you should be executing:
INSERT INTO BRK_INDV
With
Grouped( Business_Day, Src_Hour, Text, Tran_Type, Count )As(
Select Trunc( Request_Datetime ) Business_Day,
To_Char( Request_Datetime, 'hh24') Src_Hour,
Case Tran_Type
When 'V' Then 'Visa'
When 'M' Then 'MasterCard'
Else Tran_Type
end Text,
Tran_Type, count(*) as count
from DLY_STATS
Where 1=1 --> Generated as dynamic SQL?
And Request_Datetime >= Date '2015-02-09'
And Request_Datetime < Date '2015-02-10'
Group By Trunc( Request_Datetime ), To_Char( Request_Datetime, 'hh24'), Tran_Type
)
Select brk_seq.Nextval Indv_Seq, G.*
from Grouped G;
Notice there is no order by. If you want to see the generated rows in a particular order:
select * from Brk_Indv order by src_hour;
Since there could be hundreds or thousands of transactions in any particular hour, you probably order by something other than hour anyway.
In Oracle, the trunc function is the best way to get a date with the time portion stripped away. However, you don't want to use it in the where clause (or, aamof, any other function such as to_date or to_char)as that would make the clause non-sargable and result in a complete table scan.
The problem is that you can't use a sequence in a subquery. For example, this gives the same ORA-02287 error you are getting:
create table T (x number);
create sequence s;
insert into T (select * from (select s.nextval from dual));
What you can do, though, is create a function that returns nextval from the sequence, and use that in a subquery:
create function f return number as
begin
return s.nextval;
end;
/
insert into T (select * from (select f() from dual));
I need to write SQL that keeps only the minimum 5 records per each identifiable record in a table. For this, I use partition by and delete all records where the value returned is greater than 5. When I attempt to use the WHERE clause in the same query as the partition by statement, I get the error "Ordered Analytical Functions not allowed in WHERE Clause". So, in order to get it to work, I have to use three subqueries. My SQL looks ilke this:
delete mydb.mytable where (field1,field2) in
(
select field1,field2 from
(
select field1,field2,
Rank() over
(
partition BY field1
order by field1,field2
) n
from mydb.mytable
) x
where n > 5
)
The innermost subquery just returns the raw data. Since I can't use WHERE there, I wrapped it with a subquery, the purpose of which is to 1) use WHERE to get records greater than 5 in rank and 2) select only field1 and field2. The reason why I select only those two fields is so that I can use the IN statement for deleting those records in the outermost query.
It works, but it appears a bit cumbersome. I'd like to consolidate the inner two subqueries into a single subquery. Is this possible?
Sounds like you need to use the QUALIFY clause which is the HAVING clause for Window Aggregate functions. Below is my take on what you are trying to accomplish.
Please do not run this SQL directly against your production data without first testing it.
/* Physical Delete */
DELETE TGT
FROM MyDB.MyTable TGT
INNER JOIN
(SELECT Field1
, Field2
FROM MyDB.MyTable
QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() (PARTITION BY Field1, ORDER BY Field1,2)
> 5
) SRC
ON TGT.Field1 = SRC.Field1
AND TGT.Field2 = SRC.Fileld2
/* Logical Delete */
UPDATE TGT
FROM MyDB.MyTable TGT
,
(SELECT Field1
, Field2
FROM MyDB.MyTable
QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() (PARTITION BY Field1, ORDER BY Field1,2)
> 5
) SRC
SET Deleted = 'Y'
/* RecordExpireDate = Date - 1 */
WHERE TGT.Field1 = SRC.Field1
AND TGT.Field2 = SRC.Fileld2
