How to check if dates are ascending in PostgreSQL?
How can I determine if rows from child table have ascending date or not? My sample data is next
table Person
id name
1 Bob
2 Sara
3 Mike
table Appointments
id id_apt date
1 1 2018-01-31
1 2 2018-01-31
1 3 2018-02-05
2 1 2018-01-15
2 2 2018-01-07
2 3 2018-01-09
3 1 2018-01-18
From my sample data I should get only row 2 - Sara because her appointments
2 1 2018-01-15
2 2 2018-01-07
2 3 2018-01-09
are not in ascending date order. If person have 1 appointment or no appointment at all, that person has valid appointments and I only check for persons which have invalid appointments.
Thanks in advance

Two calls of the window function row_number()
show whether sort orders by id and by date differ:
select
*,
row_number() over (partition by id order by id_apt) as by_id,
row_number() over (partition by id order by date, id_apt) by_date
from appointments
id | id_apt | date | by_id | by_date
----+--------+------------+-------+---------
1 | 1 | 2018-01-31 | 1 | 1
1 | 2 | 2018-01-31 | 2 | 2
1 | 3 | 2018-02-05 | 3 | 3
2 | 2 | 2018-01-07 | 2 | 1
2 | 3 | 2018-01-09 | 3 | 2
2 | 1 | 2018-01-15 | 1 | 3
3 | 1 | 2018-01-18 | 1 | 1
(7 rows)
In the final query use the boolean aggregate bool_or()
:
select a.id, p.name
from (
select
id,
row_number() over (partition by id order by id_apt) as by_id,
row_number() over (partition by id order by date, id_apt) by_date
from appointments
) a
join person p using(id)
group by id, name
having bool_or(by_id <> by_date);
id | name
