Trouble querying DB for room(s) availability at a certain date

Question

Hello guys i have a database table that has

Room (Id(PK), roomType, roomProperties, Price, roomNumber)
Occupany(Id(PK), roomId(FK), reservationId(FK), status)
Reservation(Id(Pk), checkInDate, checkOutDate, NumberOfRoomWanted, guestId(FK))
Guest(Id(Pk), firstName, lastName, email)

No i want to query the database to return if a certain room is available within a certain date by the guest.

The way i structured My DB as for the requirements: A guest and Reservation has a One to One relationship. A reservation can have multiple rooms. Since a reservation can have multiple rooms i made a table occupancy to see if a room is occupied. The relationship between occupancy and room is a one to one relationship. And finally since a reservation can have multiple rooms, the relationship is a one to many ie a reservation can have multiple occupancys that is rooms.

Now to query if a room or rooms is availabe for a certain date: My query is

String sql = "SELECT * " +
                "FROM Room " +
                "WHERE type LIKE \"" + roomType + "\" AND properties LIKE \"" + roomProp + "\" AND NOT EXISTS(" +
                "SELECT roomId " +
                "FROM Occupancy" +
                "WHERE checkInDate <= \""+checkinD.toString()+"\" and checkOutDate >= \"" + checkoutD.toString() +
                "\" occupancy.roomId=room.roomId and occupany.resId=Reservation.resId " +

                ")";

As i am trying to query this in java but having trouble please could someone help and tell me what i did wrong. Thanks

Error:

The Big question:

The problem is since reservation has the dates how do i query reservation date and occupancy table to retrieve the rooms that are available

Answer 1

Your sql is wrong. You forgot AND operand after checkout date comparison.

Furthermore, you need to format the java Date to the format that MySQL understands:

"SELECT * " +
                "FROM Room " +
                "WHERE type LIKE \"" + roomType + "\" AND properties LIKE \"" + roomProp + "\" AND NOT EXISTS(" +
                "SELECT roomId " +
                "FROM Occupancy" +
                "WHERE checkInDate <= \""+new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").format(checkinD)+
                "\" and checkOutDate >= \"" + new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").format(checkoutD) +
                "\" and occupancy.roomId=room.roomId and occupany.resId=Reservation.resId " +

                ")";
