I am looking for a PostgreSQL query to find the latest consecutive records that match a condition. Let me explain it better with an example:
| ID | HEATING STATE | DATE |
| ---- | --------------- | ---------- |
| 1 | ON | 2018-02-19 |
| 2 | ON | 2018-02-20 |
| 3 | OFF | 2018-02-20 |
| 4 | OFF | 2018-02-21 |
| 5 | ON | 2018-02-21 |
| 6 | OFF | 2018-02-21 |
| 7 | ON | 2018-02-22 |
| 8 | ON | 2018-02-22 |
| 9 | ON | 2018-02-22 |
| 10 | ON | 2018-02-23 |
I need to find all the recent consecutive records with date >= 2018-02-20 and heating_state ON, ie the ones with ID 7, 8, 9, 10. My main issue is with the fact that they must be consecutive .
For further clarification, if needed:
Use the LEAD
function with a CASE
expression.
Query 1 :
SELECT id,
heating_state,
dt
FROM (SELECT t.*,
CASE
WHEN dt >= timestamp '2018-02-20'
AND heating_state = 'ON'
AND LEAD(heating_state, 1, heating_state)
OVER (
ORDER BY dt ) = 'ON' THEN 1
ELSE 0
END on_state
FROM t) s
WHERE on_state = 1
Results :
| id | heating_state | dt |
|----|---------------|----------------------|
| 7 | ON | 2018-02-22T00:00:00Z |
| 8 | ON | 2018-02-22T00:00:00Z |
| 9 | ON | 2018-02-22T00:00:00Z |
| 10 | ON | 2018-02-23T00:00:00Z |
I think this is best solved using windows functions and a filtered aggregate.
For each row, add the number of later rows that have state = 'OFF'
, then use only the rows where that count is 0.
You need a subquery because you cannot use a window function result in the WHERE
condition ( WHERE
is evaluated before window functions).
SELECT id, state, date
FROM (SELECT id, state, date,
count(*) FILTER (WHERE state = 'OFF')
OVER (ORDER BY date DESC, state DESC) AS later_off_count
FROM tab) q
WHERE later_off_count = 0;
id | state | date
----+-------+------------
10 | ON | 2018-02-23
9 | ON | 2018-02-22
8 | ON | 2018-02-22
7 | ON | 2018-02-22
(4 rows)
