JuliaDB select a column from a string, not a symbol - julia

I want to select a column from a JuliDB database. The problem is that I can't do it with string (not a symbol that starts with :), for example:
db = loadtable("table.dat")
#This table has 3 columns named position_1, position2, position_3
pos_num = 3
column_name = "position_$pos_num"
select(db,column_name)
If I do that, then the following error appears:
column position_3 not found.
Any suggestion?

You can create a symbol directly Symbol("position_$pos_num") or from your string with Symbol(column_name).

u-sql script can not obtain scalar value from dataset

In u-sql script I must extract a variable from file to a dataset and then use it to form a name of output file. How can I get the variable from the dataset?
In details.
I have 2 input files: csv file with a set of fields and a dictionary file. The 1st file has file name like ****ClintCode*****.csv. The 2nd file-dictionary has 2 fields with mapping: ClientCode - ClintCode2. My task is extract ClientCode value from the file name, get ClientCode2 from the dictionary, insert it as a field to output file (implemented), and, moreover, form the name of output file as ****ClientCode2****.csv.
Dictionary csv file has the content:
OldCode NewCode
6HAA Alfa
CCVV Beta
CVXX gamma
? Davis
The question is how to get ClientCode2 into scalar variable to write an expression for the output file?
DECLARE #inputFile string = "D:/DFS_SSC_Automation/Tasks/FundInfo/ESP_FAD_GL_6HAA_20170930.txt"; // '6HAA' is ClientCode here that mapped to other code in ClientCode_KVP.csv
DECLARE #outputFile string = "D:/DFS_SSC_Automation/Tasks/FundInfo/ClientCode_sftp_" + // 'ClientCode' should be replaced with ClientCode from mapping in ClientCode_KVP.csv
DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyymmdd") + "_" +
DateTime.Now.ToString("HHmmss") + ".csv";
DECLARE #dictionaryFile string = "D:/DFS_SSC_Automation/ClientCode_KVP.csv";
#dict =
EXTRACT [OldCode] string,
[NewCode] string
FROM #dictionaryFile
USING Extractors.Text(skipFirstNRows : 1, delimiter : ',');
#theCode =
SELECT Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(#inputFile).IndexOf([OldCode]) >= 0 ? 1 : 3 AS [CodeExists],
[NewCode]
FROM #dict
UNION
SELECT *
FROM(
VALUES
(
2,
""
)) AS t([CodeExists],[NewCode]);
#code =
SELECT [NewCode]
FROM #theCode
ORDER BY [CodeExists]
FETCH 1 ROWS;
#GLdata =
EXTRACT [ASAT] string,
[ASOF] string,
[BASIS_INDICATOR] string,
[CALENDAR_DATE] string,
[CR_EOP_AMOUNT] string,
[DR_EOP_AMOUNT] string,
[FUND_ID] string,
[GL_ACCT_TYPE_IND] string,
[TRANS_CLIENT_FUND_NUM] string
FROM #inputFile
USING Extractors.Text(delimiter : '|', skipFirstNRows : 1);
// Prepare output dataset
#FundInfoGL =
SELECT "" AS [AccountPeriodEnd],
"" AS [ClientCode],
[FUND_ID] AS [FundCode],
SUM(GL_ACCT_TYPE_IND == "A"? System.Convert.ToDecimal(DR_EOP_AMOUNT) : 0) AS [NetValueOtherAssets],
SUM(GL_ACCT_TYPE_IND == "L"? System.Convert.ToDecimal(CR_EOP_AMOUNT) : 0) AS [NetValueOtherLiabilities],

As David points out: You cannot assign query results to scalar variables.
However, we have a dynamic partitioned output feature in private preview right now that will give you the ability to generate file names based on column values. Please contact me if you want to try it out.
You can't. Please see Convert Rowset variables to scalar value.
You may still be able to achieve your ultimate goal in a different manner. Please consider re-writing your post with clear & concise language, small dataset, expected output, and a very minimal amount of code needed to repro - remove all details and nuances that aren't necessary to create a test case.

ROracle bind range of dates

I want to send to oracle via ROracle query with bind parameters which inculde range of dates for a date column.
I try to run :
idsample <- 123
strdate <- "TO_DATE('01/02/2017','DD/MM/YYYY')"
enddate <- "TO_DATE('01/05/2017','DD/MM/YYYY')"
res <- dbGetQuery(myconn,"SELECT * FROM MYTABLE WHERE MYID = :1 AND MYDATE BETWEEN :2 AND :3", data=data.frame(MYID =idsample , MYDATE=c(strdate,enddate )))
but I get error :
"bind data does not match bind specification"
I could find no documentation which covers using more than one positional parameter, but if one parameter corresponds to a single column of a data frame, then by this logic three parameters should correspond to three columns:
idsample <- 123
strdate <- "TO_DATE('01/02/2017', 'DD/MM/YYYY')"
enddate <- "TO_DATE('01/05/2017', 'DD/MM/YYYY')"
res <- dbGetQuery(myconn,
paste0("SELECT * FROM MYTABLE WHERE MYID = :1 AND ",
"MYDATE BETWEEN TO_DATE(:2, 'DD/MM/YYYY') AND TO_DATE(:3, 'DD/MM/YYYY')"),
data=data.frame(idsample, strdate, enddate))
Note that there is nothing special about strdate and enddate from the point of view of the API, such that they should be passed as vector.
Edit:
The problem with making TO_DATE a parameter is that it will probably end up being escaped as a string. In other words, with my first approach you would end up with the following in your WHERE clause:
WHERE MYDATE BETWEEN
'TO_DATE('01/02/2017','DD/MM/YYYY')' AND 'TO_DATE('01/05/2017','DD/MM/YYYY')'
In other words, the TO_DATE function calls ends up being a string. Instead, bind the date strings only.

pyodbc-access column by name

I have 2 tables with 150 columns and trying to join those tables and fetch the result set one by one and process them:
qry = '''select a.*, b.*
from table_a a
full outer join table_b b
where a.id = b.id'''
table_row = conn.execute(qry) #execute method yields a generator
Now, I need to access the resultset which is generator and determine the values of each and every column of table-1 & table-2
For example:- if table-1 & table-2 has a column named name, I need to compare it..
How can I access the resultset by columnnname, im using Pyodbc,
ie resultset.table1.name = resultset.table2.name
Use the ISO information schema views (I'm using SQL Server in the
example) to return column names for each table, substituting
database and schema parameters values as appropriate.
Merge the resulting lists into a set containing column names present in both tables.
Use this set to build a string representing column names to select from each table, aliasing each column by prefixing with a table name. Defining column aliases will allow you to differentiate columns by table.
Execute select query and print values for comparison.
Code sample
# assumes connection, cursor already setup
# build SQL for retrieving column names
sql = '''SELECT COLUMN_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMN
WHERE TABLE_CATALOG = ? AND TABLE_SCHEMA = ?
AND TABLE_NAME = ?'''
# get column names from table_a
rows = cursor.execute(sql, ('database', 'schema', 'table_a')).fetchall()
table_a_columns = [column[0] for column in rows]
# get column names from table_b
rows = cursor_b.execute(sql, ('database', 'schema', 'table_b')).fetchall()
table_b_columns = [column[0] for column in rows]
# get unique matching columns from lists
matches = set(table_a_columns).intersection(table_b_columns)
# get string of column names to use in query, setting column alias prefixed with
# table name for each column
column_alias = 'a.{0} as a_{0}, b.{0} as b_{0}'
columns = ', '.join([column_alias.format(column) for column in matches])
sql = 'SELECT {} FROM table_a a FULL OUTER JOIN table_b b ON a.id = b.id'
sql = sql.format(columns)
# print values to compare
for row in cursor.execute(sql):
print row
There's probably a less complicated way, but it's eluding me.

sqlite - how do I get a one row result back? (luaSQLite3)

How can I get a single row result (e.g. in form of a table/array) back from a sql statement. Using Lua Sqlite (LuaSQLite3). For example this one:
SELECT * FROM sqlite_master WHERE name ='myTable';
So far I note:
using "nrows"/"rows" it gives an iterator back
using "exec" it doesn't seem to give a result back(?)
Specific questions are then:
Q1 - How to get a single row (say first row) result back?
Q2 - How to get row count? (e.g. num_rows_returned = db:XXXX(sql))
In order to get a single row use the db:first_row method. Like so.
row = db:first_row("SELECT `id` FROM `table`")
print(row.id)
In order to get the row count use the SQL COUNT statement. Like so.
row = db:first_row("SELECT COUNT(`id`) AS count FROM `table`")
print(row.count)
EDIT: Ah, sorry for that. Here are some methods that should work.
You can also use db:nrows. Like so.
rows = db:nrows("SELECT `id` FROM `table`")
row = rows[1]
print(row.id)
We can also modify this to get the number of rows.
rows = db:nrows("SELECT COUNT(`id`) AS count FROM `table`")
row = rows[1]
print(row.count)
Here is a demo of getting the returned count:
> require "lsqlite3"
> db = sqlite3.open":memory:"
> db:exec "create table foo (x,y,z);"
> for x in db:urows "select count(*) from foo" do print(x) end
0
> db:exec "insert into foo values (10,11,12);"
> for x in db:urows "select count(*) from foo" do print(x) end
1
>
Just loop over the iterator you get back from the rows or whichever function you use. Except you put a break at the end, so you only iterate once.
Getting the count is all about using SQL. You compute it with the SELECT statement:
SELECT count(*) FROM ...
This will return one row containing a single value: the number of rows in the query.
This is similar to what I'm using in my project and works well for me.
local query = "SELECT content FROM playerData WHERE name = 'myTable' LIMIT 1"
local queryResultTable = {}
local queryFunction = function(userData, numberOfColumns, columnValues, columnTitles)
for i = 1, numberOfColumns do
queryResultTable[columnTitles[i]] = columnValues[i]
end
end
db:exec(query, queryFunction)
for k,v in pairs(queryResultTable) do
print(k,v)
end
You can even concatenate values into the query to place inside a generic method/function.
local query = "SELECT * FROM ZQuestionTable WHERE ConceptNumber = "..conceptNumber.." AND QuestionNumber = "..questionNumber.." LIMIT 1"

sqlite returns 0 rows

SELECT skill_name, character_name, cb_id, cb_id2 FROM characterbasics, characterskills WHERE characterbasics.character_name = 'Joe' & characterbasics.cb_id = characterskills.cb_id2
This, for some reason, returns 0 rows
The character name is in there (as well as 2 other dummy names).. and both cbid and cbid2 are the same.
When i try the query without the & cbid=cbid2 i get the name with the other data.. now when i check for JUST cbid=cbid2 i get 3 different dummy characters i created...
im trying to pull all "skills" associated with one character by matching the id of the character name in table 1 with the character id in table 2
Where have I erred?
cn = character name
cn cbid cbid2
Joe 2 2
This is what it SHOULD look like..
You cant use & as logical AND operator (& is binary operator), so sql should look like :
SELECT skill_name, character_name, cb_id, cb_id2
FROM characterbasics, characterskills
WHERE characterbasics.character_name = 'Joe' AND characterbasics.cb_id = characterskills.cb_id2
