I'm working on a webapp that tracks tvshows, and I need to get all episodes id's that are season finales, which means, the highest episode number from all seasons, for all tvshows.
This is a simplified version of my "episodes" table.
id tvshow_id season epnum
---|-----------|--------|-------
1 | 1 | 1 | 1
2 | 1 | 1 | 2
3 | 1 | 1 | 3
4 | 1 | 2 | 1
5 | 1 | 2 | 2
6 | 2 | 1 | 1
7 | 2 | 1 | 2
8 | 2 | 1 | 3
9 | 2 | 1 | 4
10 | 2 | 2 | 1
11 | 2 | 2 | 2
The expect output:
id
---|
3 |
5 |
9 |
11 |
I've managed to get this working for the latest season but I can't make it work for all seasons.
I've also tried to take some ideas from this but I can't seem to find a way to add the tvshow_id in there.
I'm using Postgres v10
SELECT Id from
(Select *, Row_number() over (partition by tvshow_id,season order by epnum desc) as ranking from tbl)c
Where ranking=1
You can use the below SQL to get your result, using GROUP BY with sub-subquery as:
select id from tab_x
where (tvshow_id,season,epnum) in (
select tvshow_id,season,max(epnum)
from tab_x
group by tvshow_id,season)
Below is the simple query to get desired result. Below query is also good in performance with help of using distinct on() clause
select
distinct on (tvshow_id,season)
id
from your_table
order by tvshow_id,season ,epnum desc

I am trying to create a view in postgreSQL with the requirements as below:
The table needs to show the same period last year data for every records.
Sample data:
date_sk | location_sk | division_sk | employee_type_sk | value
20180202 | 6 | 8 | 4 | 1
20180202 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 2
20190202 | 6 | 8 | 4 | 1
20190202 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 1
20200202 | 6 | 8 | 4 | 1
20200202 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 3
In the table, date_sk, location_sk, division_sk and employee_type_sk are super keys which form an unique record in the table.
You can check the required output as below:
date_sk | location_sk | division_sk | employee_type_sk | value | value_last_year
20180202 | 6 | 8 | 4 | 1 | NULL
20180203 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 2 | NULL
20190202 | 6 | 8 | 4 | 1 | 1
20190203 | 7 | 3 | 4 | 1 | NULL
20200202 | 6 | 8 | 4 | 1 | 1
20200203 | 7 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 1
The records start on 20180202, therefore, the data for the same period last year is unavailable. At the 4th record, there is a difference in division_sk comparing with the same period last year - hence, the head_count_last_year is NULL.
My current solution is to create a view from the sample data with an addition column as same_date_last_year then LEFT JOIN the same table. The SQL queries are below:
CREATE VIEW test_view AS
SELECT *,
CONCAT(LEFT(date_sk, 4) - 1, RIGHT(date_sk, 4)) AS same_date_last_year
FROM test_table
SELECT
test_view.date_sk,
test_view.location_sk,
test_view.division_sk,
test_view.employee_type_sk,
test_view.value,
test_table.value AS value_last_year
FROM test_view
LEFT JOIN test_table ON (test_view.same_date_last_year = test_table.date_sk)
We have a lot of data in the table. My solution above is unacceptable in terms of performance.
Is there a different query which yields the same result and might improve the performance ?
You could simply use a correlated subquery here which is likely best for performance:
select *,
(
select value from t t2
where t2.date_sk=t.date_sk - interval '1' year and
t2.location_sk=t.location_sk and
t2.division_sk=t.division_sk and
t2.employee_type_sk=t.employee_type_sk
) as value_last_year
from t
WITH CTE(DATE_SK,LOCATION_SK,DIVISION_SK,EMPLOYEE_TYPE_SK,VALUE)AS
(
SELECT CAST('20180202' AS DATE),6,8,4,1 UNION ALL
SELECT CAST('20180203'AS DATE),7,2,4,2 UNION ALL
SELECT CAST('20190202'AS DATE),6,8,4,1 UNION ALL
SELECT CAST('20190203'AS DATE),7,2,4,1 UNION ALL
SELECT CAST('20200202'AS DATE),6,8,4,1 UNION ALL
SELECT CAST('20200203'AS DATE),7,2,4,3
)
SELECT C.DATE_SK,C.LOCATION_SK,C.DIVISION_SK,C.EMPLOYEE_TYPE_SK,C.VALUE,
LAG(C.VALUE)OVER(PARTITION BY C.LOCATION_SK,C.DIVISION_SK,C.EMPLOYEE_TYPE_SK ORDER BY C.DATE_SK ASC)LAGG
FROM CTE AS C
ORDER BY C.DATE_SK ASC;
Could you please try if the above is suitable for you. I assume,DATE_SK is a date column or can be CAST to a date
I am struggling to figure out how to select only the first 4 records from a child table per record in the parent table in a master-detail relationship.
Tables example:
Product ProductImage
--------- -------------------
Id | Name PKeyFld1 | PKeyFld2
--------- -------------------
1 | Apple 1 | 1
2 | Banana 1 | 2
3 | Cranberry 1 | 3
1 | 4
1 | 5
2 | 1
2 | 2
2 | 3
3 | 1
3 | 3
3 | 4
3 | 8
3 | 9
The primary key for ProductImage is a combination of the two shown fields. I need to get the first 4 images per product, ordered by PKeyFld1, PKeyFld2, which would result in:
ProductImage
-------------------
PKeyFld1 | PKeyFld2
-------------------
1 | 1
1 | 2
1 | 3
1 | 4
2 | 1
2 | 2
2 | 3
3 | 1
3 | 3
3 | 4
3 | 8
The nicest solution would be to have only one query with 1 record per product, but I can also deal with two queries; 1 for the products and 1 for the images. In C#, I can fetch them and add the image data to the model before further processing it.
Can somebody help me with the query for the productImages? The hard part is in getting only the top 4 images per product, without limiting the whole ProductImage table to only 4 records. I have done this with Postgres in the past, but cannot find how to do this in SQL Server.
You can use row_number() for solve this greatest-n-per-group problem. As far as concerns, you don't need to involve the Product table.
select PKeyFld1, PKeyFld2
from (
select t.*, row_number() over(partition by PKeyFld1 order by PKeyFld2) rn
from ProductImage t
) t
where rn <= 4
order by PKeyFld1, PKeyFld2
i need a SQL-Query to delete duplicates from a table. Lets start with my tables
rc_document: (there are more entries, this is just an example)
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| rc_document_id | document_id | rc_document_group_id |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 1 |
| 3 | 3 | 1 |
| 4 | 4 | 1 |
| 5 | 1 | 2 |
| 6 | 3 | 2 |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
(document_id can be exists in mulitple rc_document-group´s)
rc_document_group:
+----------------------+----------+
| rc_document_group_id | priority |
+----------------------+----------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 |
+----------------------+----------+
Each rc_document can be joined with the rc_document_group. In the rc_document_group is the priority for each rc_document.
I want to delete the rc_document rows with document_id which have not the highest priority in the rc_document_group. Because the document_id can be exists in multiple rc_document-group´s .. i just want to keep that one, with the highest priority.
here is my expected rc_document table after deleting duplicate document_id´s:
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| rc_document_id | document_id | rc_document_group_id |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| 2 | 2 | 1 |
| 4 | 4 | 1 |
| 5 | 1 | 2 |
| 6 | 3 | 2 |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
the rc_document´s with rc_document_id 1 and 3 must be deleted, because there document_id 1 and 3 are in another rc_document_group with higher priority.
Im new in sql and i have no idea how to write these sql query ... thank for your help!!
First, you could join the two tables in order to get the corresponding priority on each row. After that, you could use the analytic function MAX() to get, for each row, the max priority within each group of document_id. At this point, you filter out the rows where the priority is not equal to the max priority in the group.
Try this query:
SELECT t.rc_document_id,
t.document_id,
t.rc_document_group_id
FROM (SELECT d.*,
g.priority,
MAX(g.priority) OVER(PARTITION BY document_id) max_priority
FROM rc_document d
INNER JOIN rc_document_group g
ON d.rc_document_group_id = g.rc_document_group_id) t
WHERE t.priority = t.max_priority
Given a table like this in PostgreSQL:
Messages
message_id | creating_user_id | receiving_user_id | created_utc
-----------+------------------+-------------------+-------------
1 | 1 | 2 | 1424816011
2 | 3 | 2 | 1424816012
3 | 3 | 2 | 1424816013
4 | 1 | 3 | 1424816014
5 | 1 | 3 | 1424816015
6 | 2 | 1 | 1424816016
7 | 2 | 1 | 1424816017
8 | 1 | 2 | 1424816018
I want to get the newest two rows per creating_user_id/receiving_user_id where the other user_id is 1. So the result of the query should look like:
message_id | creating_user_id | receiving_user_id | created_utc
-----------+------------------+-------------------+-------------
1 | 1 | 2 | 1424816011
4 | 1 | 3 | 1424816014
5 | 1 | 3 | 1424816015
6 | 2 | 1 | 1424816016
Using a window function with row_number() I can get the first 2 messages for each creating_user_id or the first 2 messages for each receiving_user_id, but I'm not sure how to get the first two messages for per creating_user_id/receiving_user_id.
Since you filter rows where one of both columns is 1 (and irrelevant), and 1 happens to be the smallest number of all, you can simply use GREATEST(creating_user_id, receiving_user_id) to distill the relevant number to PARTITION BY. (Else you could employ CASE.)
The rest is standard procedure: calculate a row number in a subquery and select the first two in the outer query:
SELECT message_id, creating_user_id, receiving_user_id, created_utc
FROM (
SELECT *
, row_number() OVER (PARTITION BY GREATEST (creating_user_id
, receiving_user_id)
ORDER BY created_utc) AS rn
FROM messages
WHERE 1 IN (creating_user_id, receiving_user_id)
) sub
WHERE rn < 3
ORDER BY created_utc;
Exactly your result.
SQL Fiddle.
My objective is to make dynamic group of lines (of product by TYPE & COLOR in fact)
I don't know if it's possible just with one select query.
But : I want to create group of lines (A PRODUCT is a TYPE and a COLOR) as per the number_per_group column and I want to do this grouping depending on the date order (Order By DATE)
A single product with a NB_PER_GROUP number 2 is exclude from the final result.
Table :
-----------------------------------------------
NUM | TYPE | COLOR | NB_PER_GROUP | DATE
-----------------------------------------------
0 | 1 | 1 | 2 | ...
1 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
2 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
3 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
4 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
5 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
6 | 4 | 1 | 3 |
7 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
8 | 4 | 1 | 3 |
9 | 4 | 1 | 3 |
10 | 5 | 1 | 2 |
Results :
------------------------
GROUP_NUMBER | NUM |
------------------------
0 | 0 |
0 | 1 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 | 2 |
1 | 3 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2 | 4 |
2 | 5 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you have another way to solve this problem, I will accept it.
What about something like this?
select max(gn.group_number) group_number, ip.num
from products ip
join (
select date, type, color, row_number() over (order by date) - 1 group_number
from (
select op.num, op.type, op.color, op.nb_per_group, op.date, (row_number() over (partition by op.type, op.color order by op.date) - 1) % nb_per_group group_order
from products op
) sq
where sq.group_order = 0
) gn
on ip.type = gn.type
and ip.color = gn.color
and ip.date >= gn.date
group by ip.num
order by group_number, ip.num
This may only work if your nb_per_group values are the same for each combination of type and color. It may also require unique dates, but that could probably be worked around if required.
The innermost subquery partitions the rows by type and color, orders them by date, then calculates the row numbers modulo nb_per_group; this forms a 0-based count for the group that resets to 0 each time nb_per_group is exceeded.
The next-level subquery finds all of the 0 values we mapped in the lower subquery and assigns group numbers to them.
Finally, the outermost query ties each row in the products table to a group number, calculated as the highest group number that split off before this product's date.
