Re^3: How to add columns with new row name using perl from mysql query?

[choroba]

> Hey at least its not "select *' anymore!

Note that my solution involves SELECT * from a union of two tables both of which have the columns listed, using the same names for both the inner selects would obscure the already complex statement even more:

SELECT queue_name, jobs_pend, jobs_run FROM (
    SELECT queue_name, jobs_pend, jobs_run
        FROM queues
        ORDER BY queue_name
        LIMIT 5
) UNION ALL
SELECT 'others', SUM(jobs_pend) AS jobs_pend, SUM(jobs_run) AS jobs_ru
+n FROM (
    SELECT jobs_pend, jobs_run
        FROM queues
    ORDER BY queue_name
    LIMIT -1 OFFSET 5
)

Good solution, and excellent use of UNION ALL.

Based on you solution, i would like to provide another approach, that uses one query, and without LIMIT or OFFSET. It simply adds a row number. Though i do not know how mysql treats an ORDER BY clause in a subquery. Anyway, completely untested:

SELECT
    CASE WHEN @rownum <= @row_limit THEN queue_name ELSE 'others' END 
+queue_name,
    SUM(jobs_pend)    jobs_pend,
    SUM(jobs_run)    jobs_run
    (
     SELECT
        @row_num := @row_num+1
        queue_name,
        jobs_pend,
        jobs_run
     FROM
        queues,
        (SELECT @row_num := 0, @row_limit := 5) r
     ORDER BY
        queue_name
    )
GROUP BY
    CASE WHEN @rownum <= @row_limit THEN @rownum ELSE @rownum + 1 END;

SELECT
   CASE WHEN num <= @row_limit THEN queue_name ELSE 'others' END
   queue_name,
   sum(jobs_pend) jobs_pend,
   sum(jobs_run)  jobs_run
   FROM
    (
     SELECT
        @row_num := @row_num+1 as num,
        queue_name,
        jobs_pend,
        jobs_run
     FROM
        queues,
        (SELECT @row_num := 0,  @row_limit := 5) r
     ORDER BY
        queue_name
    ) q
    GROUP BY 1

And added a missing comma, FROM, and table alias. (Oops!) Thank you. Why did you remove the case statement from the GROUP BY? That's the part that does the magical split. :) (Even if i did write it incorrectly.) If mysql won't support it there, it'd need to be added into the subquery, which begins to make it more confusing...

SELECT
    CASE WHEN @rownum <= @row_limit THEN queue_name ELSE 'others' END 
+queue_name,
    SUM(jobs_pend)    jobs_pend,
    SUM(jobs_run)    jobs_run
FROM
    (
     SELECT
        CASE WHEN @rownum <= @row_limit THEN @rownum ELSE @row_limit +
+ 1 END box,
        queue_name,
        jobs_pend,
        jobs_run
     FROM
        (
         SELECT
            @row_num := @row_num + 1,
            queue_name,
            jobs_pend,
            jobs_run
         FROM
            queues,
            (SELECT @row_num := 0, @row_limit := 5) r
         ORDER BY
            queue_name
        ) q
    ) p
GROUP BY
    box;

There is no error message COULD NOT INSERT DATA in your code.

Please show the exact error message you get, and the exact code you are running.

Also consider creating your database connection with the RaiseError flag so that DBI automatically tells you when an error happens.

Hai,
Here the row others prints as NULL which as follows.How can i add data type for the others row in the below sql query.


| others        |         NULL |         NULL |

SELECT queue_name, jobs_pend, jobs_run FROM (
    SELECT queue_name, jobs_pend, jobs_run
        FROM queues
        ORDER BY queue_name
        LIMIT 5
) UNION ALL
SELECT 'others', SUM(jobs_pend) AS jobs_pend, SUM(jobs_run) AS jobs_ru
+n FROM (
    SELECT jobs_pend, jobs_run
        FROM queues
    ORDER BY queue_name
    LIMIT 5 OFFSET 5
)

At Google no one can hear you grovel. (apologies to Alien)

Proper indentation makes it much easier to make sure everything is balanced doesnt it?
