[SQL] join with an array

2010-02-24 Thread Louis-David Mitterrand
Hi,

I'm trying the following query:

select array_agg(t1.id) from table1 t1 join table2 t2 on (t2.id = 
any(array_agg)) group by t1.col1;

but I get this error: ERROR:  column "array_agg" does not exist

I tried aliasing array_agg(t1.id) without success.

Thanks for any suggestions,

I can't really understand what you want to achieve, but maybe this is
what you are looking for:

test=*# select * from a;
 id | v
+---
  1 | 1
  2 | 1
  3 | 1
  4 | 1
  5 | 2
  6 | 2
(6 rows)

test=*# select * from b;
 id

  1
  3
(2 rows)

test=*# select array_agg(a.id), v from a join b on (b.id in (select a.id from 
a)) group by a.v;
 array_agg | v
---+---
 {1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4} | 1
 {6,5,5,6} | 2
(2 rows)



Question: you are 'pif' in the irc-channel?

Here is a test case I built. I want to list all cruises by cruise_type
but after merging cruise_type that have the same cruise_type_name:

drop table cruise;
drop table cruise_type;

create table cruise_type (
id_cruise_type serial primary key,
cruise_type_name text
);

create table cruise (
id_cruise serial,
id_cruise_type integer references cruise_type,
cruise_date timestamp default now()
);

insert into cruise_type (cruise_type_name) values 
('5 day eastern carribean cruise'),
('5 day western carribean cruise'),
('5 day eastern carribean cruise'),
('5 day western carribean cruise')
;

insert into cruise (id_cruise_type) values 
(1),
(2),
(3),
(4),
(1),
(2),
(3),
(4)
;

select array_agg(ct.id_cruise_type),ct.cruise_type_name from cruise_type ct 
join cruise c on (c.id_cruise = any(array_agg)) group by cruise_type_name;

You dont specify (in english) what you exactly want to achive, but here is my 
shot:
1st, get the cruises by cruise type:
select ct.id_cruise_type,array_agg(c.id_cruise) as "List of Cruises" from 
cruise_type ct, cruise c WHERE c.id_cruise_type=ct.id_cruise_type GROUP BY 
ct.id_cruise_type ORDER BY ct.id_cruise_type;
 id_cruise_type | List of Cruises
+-
  1 | {1,5}
  2 | {2,6}
  3 | {3,7}
  4 | {4,8}
(4 rows)

test=#   
Then you may pretify this to include the name of each cruise type as well:

select ct.id_cruise_type,ct.cruise_type_name,array_agg(c.id_cruise) as "List of 
Cruises" from cruise_type ct, cruise c WHERE c.id_cruise_type=ct.id_cruise_type 
GROUP BY ct.id_cruise_type,ct.cruise_type_name ORDER BY ct.id_cruise_type;
 id_cruise_type |cruise_type_name| List of Cruises
++-
  1 | 5 day eastern carribean cruise | {1,5}
  2 | 5 day western carribean cruise | {2,6}
  3 | 5 day eastern carribean cruise | {3,7}
  4 | 5 day western carribean cruise | {4,8}
(4 rows)

EXERCISE:
Why cant we exclude ct.id_cruise_type from the select clause and group by of 
the above query?
