[英]MySQL select names group by alphabet limit to n results per letter
I want to create a query that will get the names from one table then joint it with others, ordered alphabetically for each letter of the alphabet then limit to n results for each letter in one query. 我想创建一个查询,该查询将从一个表中获取名称,然后将其与其他表合并,按字母顺序对字母的每个字母排序,然后在一个查询中将每个字母的结果限制为n个。
So I don't wan't running 26 queries for each letter like: 因此,我不会为每个字母运行26个查询,例如:
SELECT CONCAT_WS(' ',first_name,last_name) AS name FROM encyclopedia WHERE name LIKE "A%" ORDER BY rand() LIMIT 4
SELECT CONCAT_WS(' ',first_name,last_name) AS name FROM encyclopedia WHERE name LIKE "B%" ORDER BY rand() LIMIT 4
SELECT CONCAT_WS(' ',first_name,last_name) AS name FROM encyclopedia WHERE name LIKE "C%" ORDER BY rand() LIMIT 4
Right now I have: 现在我有:
SELECT
e.id,
CONCAT_WS(' ',first_name,last_name) AS name,
sg.name AS sub_name,
sg.id AS sub_id
FROM ( SELECT id,first_name,last_name FROM encyclopedia ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 4) AS e
LEFT JOIN encyclopedia_subgenres esub
ON ( e.id = esub.enc_id )
LEFT JOIN subgenres sg
ON ( esub.subgenre_id = sg.id )
ORDER BY name
Then from php I create the array from the result: 然后从PHP我从结果创建数组:
Array
(
[b] => Array
(
[2] => Array
(
[name] => B Style
[genres] => Array
(
[26] => Classic
[27] => X
[29] => Y
)
)
[7] => Array
(
[name] => Beyonce Giselle Knowles
[genres] => Array
(
[32] => Pop
)
)
)
[i] => Array
(
[1] => Array
(
[name] => Ivan D
[genres] => Array
(
[27] => R&B
[2] => Jazz
)
)
)
[m] => Array
(
[3] => Array
(
[name] => Maria T
[genres] => Array
(
[26] => Classical
[27] => Pop
[28] => Dance
)
)
)
)
But the thing is that it limits me to only 4 random results which can be 4 on the same letter or any combination. 但事实是,它限制了我只有4个随机结果,在同一字母或任意组合上可以是4。 Is there a way in doing this ?
有办法吗?
Thanks. 谢谢。
I think sql is not that much flexible - but i am not sure. 我认为sql不太灵活-但我不确定。 You have to write stored-procedures for that.
您必须为此编写存储过程。
First create one that generate this sequence: A, B, C, ..., Z, A, B, C, ..., Z, A, B, C, ... lets call it magic_sequence. 首先创建一个生成此序列的序列:A,B,C,...,Z,A,B,C,...,Z,A,B,C,...让我们称其为magic_sequence。
Then create a temporary table having a column, init, seeded from magic sequence, another, count_down, be equal to 4. It should have 26 rows. 然后创建一个临时表,该表具有一列init,该列是从魔术序列开始的,另一列count_down等于4。它应该有26行。 lets call it init_table;
我们称它为init_table;
Then write another function namely acceptance_test that 然后写另一个函数,acceptance_test
- take a string S with
- decrease count_down of the corresponding row in init_table
- return true if count_down > = 0; otherwise false
now have a query like that: 现在有这样的查询:
SELECT CONCAT_WS(' ',first_name,last_name) AS name FROM encyclopedia WHERE acceptance_test(name) LIMIT 4*26
You also have to randomize if you want. 如果需要,还必须随机化。
