如何在 postgresql 中按天和组求和值？

Question

i have the following table:

date	value	Group
2021-04-07 00:00:00	5	a
2021-04-07 00:00:00	10	b
2021-04-07 01:00:00	5	a
2021-04-07 01:00:00	4	b
2021-04-08 00:00:00	5	a
2021-04-08 00:00:00	8	b
2021-04-08 01:00:00	4	a
2021-04-08 01:00:00	5	b

And i want to know how could i sum the values by day and group, like this:

date	total_value	Group
2021-04-07	10	a
2021-04-07	14	b
2021-04-08	9	a
2021-04-08	13	b

Hope someone can help me with this, thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Using the aggregate function sum and grouping by date and group will achieve this. Since you have timestamp data, the solution below casts it to a date type and groups using that. Finally in the projection, I also casted to a text to remove the additional date information and just provide with YYYY-MM-DD

Schema (PostgreSQL v11)

CREATE TABLE my_table (
  "date" TIMESTAMP,
  "value" INTEGER,
  "Group" VARCHAR(1)
);

INSERT INTO my_table
  ("date", "value", "Group")
VALUES
  ('2021-04-07 00:00:00', '5', 'a'),
  ('2021-04-07 00:00:00', '10', 'b'),
  ('2021-04-07 01:00:00', '5', 'a'),
  ('2021-04-07 01:00:00', '4', 'b'),
  ('2021-04-08 00:00:00', '5', 'a'),
  ('2021-04-08 00:00:00', '8', 'b'),
  ('2021-04-08 01:00:00', '4', 'a'),
  ('2021-04-08 01:00:00', '5', 'b');

Query #1

select
   "date"::date::text,
   sum(value) as total_value,
   "Group"
FROM
   my_table
GROUP BY
   "date"::date, "Group";

date	total_value	Group
2021-04-07	10	a
2021-04-07	14	b
2021-04-08	9	a
2021-04-08	13	b
