I am trying to get a distinct count of a particular column using sequelize. My initial attempt is using the 'count' method of my model, however it doesn't look like this is possible.
The DISTINCT feature is needed because I am joining other tables and filtering the rows of the parent based on the related tables.
here's the query I would like:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Product.id) as `count`
FROM `Product`
LEFT OUTER JOIN `Vendor` AS `vendor` ON `vendor`.`id` = `Product`.`vendorId`
WHERE (`vendor`.`isEnabled`=true );
using the following query against my Product model:
Product.count({
include: [{model: models.Vendor, as: 'vendor'}],
where: [{ 'vendor.isEnabled' : true }]
})
Generates the following query:
SELECT COUNT(*) as `count`
FROM `Product`
LEFT OUTER JOIN `Vendor` AS `vendor` ON `vendor`.`id` = `Product`.`vendorId`
WHERE (`vendor`.`isEnabled`=true );
UPDATE: New version
There are now separate distinct and col options. The docs for distinct state:
Apply COUNT(DISTINCT(col)) on primary key or on options.col.
You want something along the lines of:
MyModel.count({
include: ...,
where: ...,
distinct: true,
col: 'Product.id'
})
.then(function(count) {
// count is an integer
});
Original Post
(As mentioned in the comments, things have changed since my original post, so you probably want to ignore this part.)
After looking at Model.count method in lib/model.js, and tracing some code, I found that when using Model.count, you can just add any kind of aggregate function arguments supported by MYSQL to your options object. The following code will give you the amount of different values in MyModel's someColumn:
MyModel.count({distinct: 'someColumn', where: {...}})
.then(function(count) {
// count is an integer
});
That code effectively generates a query of this kind: SELECT COUNT(args) FROM MyModel WHERE ..., where args are all properties in the options object that are not reserved (such as DISTINCT, LIMIT and so on).
The Sequelize documentation on count links to a count method that doesn't let you specify which column to get the count of distinct values:
Model.prototype.count = function(options) {
options = Utils._.clone(options || {});
conformOptions(options, this);
Model.$injectScope(this.$scope, options);
var col = '*';
if (options.include) {
col = this.name + '.' + this.primaryKeyField;
expandIncludeAll.call(this, options);
validateIncludedElements.call(this, options);
}
Utils.mapOptionFieldNames(options, this);
options.plain = options.group ? false : true;
options.dataType = new DataTypes.INTEGER();
options.includeIgnoreAttributes = false;
options.limit = null;
options.offset = null;
options.order = null;
return this.aggregate(col, 'count', options);
};
Basically SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT(*)) or SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT(primaryKey)) if you've got a primary key defined.
To do the Sequelize equivalent of SELECT category, COUNT(DISTINCT(product)) as 'countOfProducts' GROUP BY category, you'd do:
model.findAll({
attributes: [
'category',
[Sequelize.literal('COUNT(DISTINCT(product))'), 'countOfProducts']
],
group: 'category'
})
Looks like this is now supported in Sequelize versions 1.7.0+.
the count and findAndCountAll methods of a model will give you 'real' or 'distinct' count of your parent model.
I was searching for SELECT COUNT(0) query for sequelize, below is the answer for that.
let existingUsers = await Users.count({
where: whereClouser,
attributes: [[sequelize.fn('COUNT', 0), 'count']]
});
This helped me to get distinct count from another table rows,
dataModel.findAll({
attributes: {
include: [[Sequelize.literal("COUNT(DISTINCT(history.data_id))"), "historyModelCount"]]
},
include: [{
model: historyModel, attributes: []
}],
group: ['data.id']
});
Ref 1, Ref 2.
With respect to your question in order to get the distinct counts of products based on the id of product
you just need to pass the key 'distinct' with value 'id' to your count object , Here is the example
To generate this sql query as you asked
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT(`Product`.`id`)) as `count`
FROM `Product`
LEFT OUTER JOIN `Vendor` AS `vendor` ON `vendor`.`id` = `Product`.`vendorId`
WHERE (`vendor`.`isEnabled`=true );
Add 'distinct' key in your Sequelize query
Product.count({
include: [{model: models.Vendor, as: 'vendor'}],
where: [{ 'vendor.isEnabled' : true }],
distinct: 'id' // since count is applied on Product model and distinct is directly passed to its object so Product.id will be selected
});
This way of using 'distinct' key to filter out distinct counts or rows , I tested in Sequelize Version 6.
Hope this will help you or somebody else!
I'm working with a legacy Oracle database that has a column on a table which stores boolean values as 'Y' or 'N' characters.
I have mapped/converted this column out like so:
MappingSchema.Default.SetConverter<char, bool>(ConvertToBoolean);
MappingSchema.Default.SetConverter<bool, char>(ConvertToChar);
ConvertToBoolean & ConvertToChar are simply functions that map between the types.
Here's the field:
private char hasDog;
[Column("HAS_DOG")]
public bool HasDog
{
get => ConvertToBoolean(hasDog);
set => hasDog = ConvertToChar(value);
}
This has worked well for simply retrieving data, however, it seems the translation of the following:
var humanQuery = (from human in database.Humans
join vetVisit in database.VetVisits on human.Identifier equals vetVisit.Identifier
select new HumanModel(
human.Identifier
human.Name,
human.HasDog,
vetVisit.Date,
vetVisit.Year,
vetVisit.PaymentDue
));
// humanQuery is filtered by year here
var query = from vetVisits in database.VetVisits
select new VetPaymentModel(
(humanQuery).First().Year,
(humanQuery).Where(q => q.HasDog).Sum(q => q.PaymentDue), -- These 2 lines aren't correctly translated to Y/N
(humanQuery).Where(q => !q.HasDog).Sum(q => q.PaymentDue)
);
As pointed out above, the .Where clause here doesn't translate the boolean comparison of HasDog being true/false to the relevant Y/N values, but instead a 0/1 and results in the error
ORA-01722: invalid number
Is there any way to handle this case? I'd like the generated SQL to check that HAS_DOG = 'Y' for instance with the specified Where clause :)
Notes
I'm not using EntityFramework here, the application module that this query exists in doesn't use EF/EFCore
You can define new mapping schema for your particular DataConnection:
var ms = new MappingSchema();
builder = ms.GetFluentMappingBuilder();
builder.Entity<Human>()
.Property(e => e.HasDog)
.HasConversion(v => v ? 'Y' : 'N', p => p == 'Y');
Create this schema ONCE and use when creating DataConnection
i want to store my authenticated user id in one of my tables.In my UserFactory.php i write
$factory->define(App\Programming::class, function (Faker $faker) {
return [
'name' => $faker->name,
'user_id'=>Auth::id(),
];});
I am logged in and use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth is also included at the top.I get the following error while seeding my data
Error:
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'user_id' cannot be null.
Any Solution?Thanks in advance!
Try to check first before assign to variable
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
if (Auth::check()) {
$user_id = Auth::id();
}
dd($user_id);
I have two tables employee_personals where all the personal record of the employee is stored and telephone_bills where the telephone bills paid to a particular employee is stored for each month. Now in my employeePersonalsController.php I have a function called api_show_employees() which is similar to below :
function api_show_employees() {
//$this->autoRender = false;
//Configure::write("debug",0);
$office_id = '';
$cond = '';
if(isset($_GET['office_id']) && trim($_GET['office_id']) != '') {
$office_id = $_GET['office_id'];
$cond['EmployeePersonal.office_id'] = $office_id;
}
if(isset($_GET['telephoneBillTo']) && isset($_GET['telephoneBillFrom']) ) {
if($_GET['telephoneBillTo'] != '' && $_GET['telephoneBillFrom'] != '') {
$cond['TelephoneBill.bill_from'] = $_GET['telephoneBillFrom'];
$cond['TelephoneBill.bill_to'] = $_GET['telephoneBillTo'];
}
}
$order = 'EmployeePersonal.name';
// $employee = $this->EmployeePersonal->find('all');
$employee = $this->EmployeePersonal->find('all',array('order' => $order,'conditions'=>$cond));
//return json_encode($employee);
}
This functions basically finds all the employees who paid bills in the given period. But I am getting an error
Error: SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'TelephoneBill.bill_from' in 'where clause'
Models : EmployeePersonal.php:
var $hasMany = array(
'TelephoneBill' => array(
'className' => 'TelephoneBill',
)
);
TelephoneBill.php
public $name = 'TelephoneBill';
var $hasMany = array('EmployeePersonal');
NB: If I skip the bill_from and bill_to conditions, I am getting the results , with TelephoneBill array !
TLDR: use Joins instead.
Details/Notes:
1) it looks like you're using recursive. Don't do that. Use Containable instead.
2) You can't limit the parent model based on conditions against data from a contained/recursive-included table - instead, use Joins.
2b) Or, you could query from the other direction, and query your TelephoneBill with conditions, then contain the EmployeePersonal.
I have the following SQL
SELECT i_id AS "entity_id", "entity_1" AS "type"
FROM tbl_extensions WHERE ext = 50
which returns me the result and an additional column "type" with the value "entity_1"
to gain the same with Zend_Db I've tried:
$db->fetchAll($db->select()
->from('tbl_extensions',
array('entity_id' => 'i_id',
'type' => 'entity_1'))
->where('ext = ?', 50)));
But I have the following error:
Message: SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'tbl_extensions.type' in 'field list'
It looks like Zend tries to find a column instead of creating it within the result.
Could anyone help me with it?
easiest solution would be to use Zend_Db_Expr.
$db->fetchAll($db->select()
->from('tbl_extensions',
array(
'entity_id' => 'i_id',
new Zend_Db_Expr('"entity_1" AS "type"'),
)
)
->where('ext = ?', 50));
