count in group_concat in mysql in one query












1















I have one to many table relationship :




  • one user for multiple event

  • one event for multiple event_attribute


Now, I group by userId and want to know how many for each event attribute ?



Below is the data schema you can use:



To be more specific, this is the DB schema I am using:



CREATE TABLE `user` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`name` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `id_UNIQUE` (`id`)
);
CREATE TABLE `event` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`name` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
`user_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
CREATE TABLE `event_attr` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`att_name` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
`event_id` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
INSERT INTO `user` VALUES (1,'user1'),(2,'user2'),(3,'user3');
INSERT INTO `event` VALUES (1,'event1',1),(2,'event2',1),(3,'event3',1),(4,'event4',2),(5,'event5',2),(6,'event6',3);
INSERT INTO `event_attr` VALUES (1,'att1','1'),(2,'att2','1'),(3,'att3','1'),(4,'att1','2'),(5,'att2',NULL);


Now if I am running:



select u.id, group_concat(e.name)
from user u
join event e on u.id=e.user_id
group by u.id


I will get:



1 event1,event2,event3
2 event4,event6
3 event 6


That is fine. But one step forward, I need to know count for each event_attt for each user, such as:



1 evet_att1:3;event_att2:2
2 event_att3:1


Then it is not possible. Can I use just one query to get above expected response?

          We can try aggregating the event table first by both user and event, to generate the counts:



          SELECT u.id, GROUP_CONCAT(e.name, ':', CAST(e.cnt AS CHAR(50)))
          FROM user u
          LEFT JOIN
          (
          SELECT id, name, user_id, COUNT(*) AS cnt
          FROM event
          GROUP BY id, name, user_id
          ) e
          ON u.id = e.user_id
          GROUP BY
          u.id;

          • Thanks, but we want to count event_attribute, not event, you are counting event here, any idea?

          • Thanks, very good solution. if we need to count attribute, we just need to group by it first, coming up with subQuery and then join again
