I would like to split the result of a group by in several rows based on a count, but I don't know if it's possible. For instance, if I have a query like this :
SELECT doc.client, doc.template, COUNT(doc) FROM document doc GROUP BY doc.client, doc.template
and a table document with the following data :
ID | name | client | template
1 | doc_a | a | temp_a
2 | doc_b | a | temp_a
3 | doc_c | a | temp_a
4 | doc_d | a | temp_b
The result for the query would be :
client | template | count
a | temp_a | 3
a | temp_b | 1
But I would like to split a row of the result in two or more if the count is higher than 2 :
client | template | count
a | temp_a | 2
a | temp_a | 1
a | temp_b | 1
Is there a way to do this in SQL ?
You can use window functions and then aggregate:
SELECT client, template, COUNT(*)
FROM (SELECT doc.client, doc.template,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY doc.client, doc.template ORDER BY doc.client) - 1 as seqnum,
COUNT(*) OVER (PARTITION BY doc.client, doc.template) as cnt
FROM document doc
) d
GROUP BY doc.client, doc.template, floor(seqnum * n / cnt)
The subquery enumerates the rows. The outer query then splits the rows into groups of two using MOD()
.
You can use RCTE like below. Run this statement AS IS first playing with different values in the last column. Max batch size here is 1000.
WITH
GRP_RESULT (client, template, count) AS
(
-- Place your SELECT ... GROUP BY here
-- instead of VALUES
VALUES
('a', 'temp_a', 4500)
, ('a', 'temp_b', 3001)
)
, T (client, template, count, max_batch_size) AS
(
SELECT client, template, count, 1000
FROM GRP_RESULT
UNION ALL
SELECT client, template, count - max_batch_size, max_batch_size
FROM T
WHERE count > max_batch_size
)
SELECT client, template, CASE WHEN count > max_batch_size THEN max_batch_size ELSE count END count
FROM T
ORDER BY client, template, count DESC
The result is:
|CLIENT|TEMPLATE|COUNT |
|------|--------|-----------|
|a |temp_a |1000 |
|a |temp_a |1000 |
|a |temp_a |1000 |
|a |temp_a |1000 |
|a |temp_a |500 |
|a |temp_b |1000 |
|a |temp_b |1000 |
|a |temp_b |1000 |
|a |temp_b |1 |
You may place your SELECT ... GROUP BY
statement as specified above afterwards to achieve your goal.
