I have the following DQL statement, using Doctrine's querybuilder:
As you can see I am bringing back all the posts and their comments:
public function getAllPosts(User $user){
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('p');
$qb->select('p, postPhotos,postVideos, comments, commentUser, commentUserPhoto, replyComments, commentReplyUser, commentReplyUserPhoto, postTier,creator,creatorPhoto,creatorTiers,creatorSubscriptions')
->leftJoin('p.photos', 'postPhotos')
->leftJoin('p.videos', 'postVideos')
->leftJoin('p.comments', 'comments')
->leftJoin('comments.user', 'commentUser')
->leftJoin('commentUser.photos', 'commentUserPhoto', 'WITH', 'commentUserPhoto.type = :profileType')
->leftJoin('comments.children', 'replyComments')
I have already tried adding a
->addSelect("COUNT(p.comments) as countComments")
And I just get an error, "countComments' does not point to a Class"
So I looked up other references, like this one: https://symfonycasts.com/screencast/doctrine-queries/select-sum
But it doesn't give an example of how to include a count in with the results of a DQL query.
Do I need to just create my own count function within the comments repository, and loop through my original data set, calling it once per post?
There 2 issues with what you are trying to do:
1) You should use the join alias "comments", not the relation field "p.comments", in the aggregate function:
->addSelect("COUNT(comments) as countComments")
and the query will be grouped by the root entity, unless ->groupBy() is specified.
But this is not a solution in your case, the real issue is that:
2) You cannot select fields of a table when you are trying to aggregate any of its field. It will not work and will produce strange results. More specific, you will get just one entity in the result collection.
More why cant you mix aggregate values and non aggregate values in a single select
Solution in your case
Since you are already selecting the "comments", just "count" the collection resulted:
$posts = $queryBuilder->getQuery()->getResult();
foreach($posts as $post) {
echo $post->getComments()->count();
}
or
$posts = $queryBuilder->getQuery()->getArrayResult();
foreach($posts as $post) {
echo count($post['comments']);
}

Looking to join multiple nodes via a query and join. Let's say one node has a matching ID of another field in another node. I would like to join them into an array so that I can output other fields with them indexed together on the same ID. Example: node1.nid and node2.field.target_id
How do I do this?
$nids = \Drupal::entityQuery('node')->accessCheck(FALSE)
->join('node2', 'n2', 'n.nid = n2.field.target_id');
->condition('type', 'node1', 'node2')
->sort('title')->execute();
$nodes = \Drupal\node\Entity\Node::loadMultiple($nids);
$response = array();
This is definitely doable and it looks like you're almost there, but it looks like you're combining the Database API with the Entity API, specifically trying to run Database joins on EntityQuery fetches.
Now, if you want to continue the Database query route, which may make it a little easier to join the values of multiple entities and output them, this is what I would recommend:
The first thing that I notice is that you're attempting to chain the join. Unfortunately, according to the Database API Docs
Joins cannot be chained, so they have to be called separately (see Chaining).
I have done similar to this with a join between two custom content types. Here is the code I used:
$connection = Database::getConnection();
if ($connection->schema()->tableExists('companies') && $connection->schema()->tableExists('users')) {
$query = $connection->select('companies', 'c');
$query->join('users', 'u', 'c.sourceid1 = u.sourceid1');
$results = $query->fields('u', ['destid1', 'sourceid1'])
->fields('c', ['destid1'])
->execute()
->fetchAll();
return $results;
}
Now this assumes that you've brought in Drupal\Core\Database\Database, but let's walk through the process.
$connection = Database::getConnection();
This is fetching the database connection for your site
if ($connection->schema()->tableExists('companies') && $connection->schema()->tableExists('users')) {
This is a check I always do to make sure the tables I'm working with exist.
$query = $connection->select('companies', 'c');
One of your tables needs to be the "base" table. In this case, I chose companies.
$query->join('users', 'u', 'c.sourceid1 = u.sourceid1');
This line is where the join actually happens. Notice that it's not chained, but it's own command. We're joining these tables, users and companies, on this sourceid1.
$results = $query->fields('u', ['destid1', 'sourceid1'])
->fields('c', ['destid1'])
->execute()
->fetchAll();
This is where I'm pulling whichever fields I want from both entities. In this case I want destid1 and sourceid1 from my user table and destid1 from my company table.
The ->execute() call actually runs the query, and ->fetchAll() returns an array of all matching results. This will get you to being able to JSONify all the things.
However, if you want to stick with the entityQuery route, that's also viable. My personal preference is to use a regular query for more complex things and an entityQuery if I just need to get a value from a single field or return a single entity.
For an entityQuery, well, that's a bit different. I wouldn't really recommend using an entityQuery for a join here. Instead, using entityTypeManager if you know or can get the matching value from both tables.
For example, let's assume that field_content_type_a_id on content type A matches field_related_type_a_id on content type B.
You could load one, let's go with type A for now:
// Get the current NID somehow... that's up to you
$entity_a = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStorage('node')->load($nid);
// Get the value of the field you want to match to the other content type
$matching_value = $entity_a->get('field_content_type_a_id')->getValue();
// Get the entities with matching type A values
$entity_b_array = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStorage('node')
->loadByProperties(['field_related_type_a_id' => $matching_value]);
// Do something with $entity_b_array.
I'm having a huge problem with ORM QueryBuilder. What I need to do is:
I need to fetch order with count of its products and plenty of associated entities (associated with order), but I assume they're not relevant here. I also need to order result by that count.
Could anyone give me an example of how this can be achieved? I would like to avoid "inline" DQLs if possible.
You can get data via Doctrine Query Builder.
You are supposed to left join products from Order and then group by order id. You can have COUNT(product.id) in your select statement and use the alias in order by clause to make your orders sorted. Below is a small code snippet from Repository.
/**
* #return \Doctrine\ORM\Query
*/
public function getHotelAndRoomType()
{
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('order')
->select('partial order.{id, orderId} as order, count(product.id) as total_products_in_order')
->leftJoin('AppBundle:Product', 'product', 'WITH', 'product.order = order.id')
->groupBy('order.id')
->orderBy('total_products_in_order', 'DESC')
;
return $qb->getQuery()->execute();
}
Note : Code not tested.
I'm getting the above error when performing a search in a Symfony2 CRM I've been working on. According to Google searches it seems this is an issue relating to the KNP Paginator bundle, but I cannot seem to find a solid solution.
In this instance, I am using data from an OpenCart database, and I need to be able to search by Postcode and Company name, both of which exist in the address table which is joined via a mapped value within the Customer entity, defaultaddress.
To this end, I've had to write a custom query in a function called findCustomerByPostcode like so:
$this->getEntityManager()
->createQuery('SELECT c FROM AppBundle:Oc49Customer c JOIN AppBundle:Oc49Address a WITH c.defaultaddress = a.id WHERE a.postcode LIKE :postcode')
->setParameter('postcode','%'.$postcode.'%')
->getResult();
However, when I perform a search on postcode, I get the following error in the browser:
One of listeners must count and slice given target
which refers to the Paginator.php file within the KNP bundle. I have updated to the most recent version, 2.5 yet I cannot seem to shake this error, and to me it does not even make sense.
Any help is much appreciated, as I cannot think of another way of search via a value within a joined table.
Which returns results from the postcode search, and then in the Controller:
$customers = $customer_repository->findCustomerByPostcode($filter_value);
$paginator = $this->get('knp_paginator');
$pagination = $paginator->paginate(
$customers,
$request->query->get('page', 1),
20
);
You can use the queryBuilder with the left join
public function findCustomerByPostcode($postcode) {
$query = $this->entityManager->createQueryBuilder();
$query
->select('c', 'a')
->from('AppBundle:Customer', 'c')
->leftJoin('c.address', 'a')
->setParameter('postcode', $postcode)
return $query->getQuery()->getResult();
}
I'm trying to refine the query trying to select fewer possible values ..
For example I have an entity "Anagrafic" that contains your name, address, city, etc.,
and a form where I want to change only one of these fields, such as address.
I have created this query:
//AnagraficRepository
public function findAddress($Id)
{
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('r')
->select('r.address')
->where('r.id = :id')
->setParameter('id', $Id)
->getQuery();
return $qb->getResult();
}
there is something wrong with this query because I do not return any value, but if I do the query normally:
//Controller
$entity = $em->getRepository('MyBusinessBundle:Anagrafic')->find($id);
Return the right value.
How do I do a query selecting only one column?
Since you are requesting single column of each record you are bound to expect an array. That being said you should replace getResult with getArrayResult() because you can't enforce object hydration:
$data = $qb->getArrayResult();
Now, you have structure:
$data[0]['address']
$data[1]['address']
....
Hope this helps.
As for the discussion about performance in comments I generally agree with you for not wanting all 30 column fetch every time. However, in that case, you should consider writing named queries in order to minimize impact if you database ever gets altered.
You can use partial objects to only hydrate one field and still return a object.
This worked for me:
$qb = $repository->createQueryBuilder('i')
->select('i.name')
->...
Use partial objects like this to select fields
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('r')
->select(array('partial r.{id,address}'))
...
Put your field names between the brackets
Making a search with Apachesolr, i want to add a couple of filters in hook_apachesolr_prepare_query(&$query). This works fine, except I want the filters to widen the search ('OR'), rather than narrow it ('AND').
For example, if I have 4 nodes of type:A and 3 of type:B that match a search, to filter by type:A and type:B should return 7 nodes (of type:A AND nodes of type:B), rather than 0 those of type:A which are also of type:B.
I saw a suggestion to do this using the model of nodeaccess
foreach ($filters as $filter) {
$subquery = apachesolr_drupal_query();
if (!empty($subquery)) {
$subquery->add_filter('type', $filter);
$query->add_subquery($subquery);
}
}
but this doesn't seem to work. (It doesn't return any results).
I then tried (as I have a limited number of node types) excluding the types that I don't want:
$excludes = array('A', 'B', 'C');
$excludes = array_diff($excludes, $filters);
$exclude = implode('&', $excludes);
$query->add_filter('type', $exclude, TRUE);
This method of stitching them together doesn't work (the '&' gets escaped) but neither does adding them as subqueries, similar to the manner above.
Any suggestions on how to do this?
With Drupal7 and the last apacheSolr API, you can do OR filters by doing this :
function my_module_apachesolr_query_alter($query) {
// first, create a subQuery filter to store others
// and specify there is a "OR" condition
$filter = new SolrFilterSubQuery('OR');
// next, add all filters on bundle you want, each as
// a new subQuery filter, always with "OR" condition
// and add it to the primary filter
$a = new SolrFilterSubQuery('OR');
$a->addFilter('bundle', 'A');
$filter->addFilterSubQuery( $a );
$b = new SolrFilterSubQuery('OR');
$b->addFilter('bundle', 'B');
$filter->addFilterSubQuery( $b );
$c = new SolrFilterSubQuery('OR');
$c->addFilter('bundle', 'C');
$filter->addFilterSubQuery( $c );
// finally, add the primary subQuery filter as
// subquery of the current query
$query->addFilterSubQuery( $filter );
}
And your query search about type A OR type B OR type C (all results in each types). You can combine OR / AND by changing the parameter of the SolrFilterSubQuery instanciation.

I havenť played with SOLR much but I am quiete familiar with Drupal and Zend Lucene (or Drupal Lucene API).
I would suggest that you try to filter your results based on content type (because each node has its content type stored in the object).
The second idea is to change basic operator. I am not sure how it is done in SOLR but i Zend Lucene
Zend_Search_Lucene_Search_QueryParser::setDefaultOperator($operator) and Zend_Search_Lucene_Search_QueryParser::getDefaultOperator() methods, respectively.
Docs can be found in Zend Lucene Docs. Or for SOLR Solr Docs.
I hope a got your problem right.
Hope it helps :-)
