Symfony2 Doctrine Subquery

Question

Im trying to write this query in symfony2 with queryBuilder() but i get an syntax error [Syntax Error] line 0, col 58: Error: Expected end of string, got 'SELECT'

SELECT  * FROM  upload_video as p ORDER BY (SELECT  COUNT(*) FROM vote as v WHERE v.video_id = p.id ) DESC;

So can anyone help me convert this query into Symfony2 doctrine format $qb->createQuery("SELECT p FROM HotelPlanBundle:UploadVideo as p ORDER BY (SELECT COUNT(v) FROM HotelPlanBundle:Vote v WHERE v.video_id = p.id ) desc");

this is the UploadVideo entity

What i'm trying to do is i'm trying to order the videos based on the votes that are in the vote table or in the collection.

Answer 1

You can use QueryBuilder to achieve that:

$qb = $em->createQueryBuilder();
$result = $qb->select('uv, COUNT(v) AS HIDDEN votesCount')
    ->from('HotelPlanBundle\Entity\UploadVideo', 'uv')
    ->leftJoin('uv.votes', 'v')
    ->where('v.videoId = uv.id')
    ->orderBy('votesCount', 'DESC')
    ->groupBy('uv')
    ->getQuery()
    ->getResult();

or if you want to use DQL :

$em->createQuery('SELECT uv, COUNT(v) as AS HIDDEN votesCount FROM HotelPlanBundle\Entity\UploadVideo uv LEFT JOIN uv.votes v WHERE v.videoId = uv.id GROUP BY uv ORDER BY votesCount DESC');
