I have a sample table name (info) in mysql database as follows:
id dateAdded
----------------------------
1 2013-12-24 03:03:19
2 2013-12-24 03:04:19
3 2013-12-24 03:06:14
4 2013-12-24 03:07:23
5 2013-12-25 03:04:19
6 2013-12-26 03:02:19
7 2013-12-26 03:03:19
I have another table name (error) as follows:
id date
----------------------------
11 2013-12-24 03:03:19
22 2013-12-24 03:04:19
33 2013-12-25 03:06:14
53 2013-12-25 03:04:19
62 2013-12-26 03:02:19
I want to COUNT how many ids from the two tables (info and error) with the same dates , so the result out will be :
date countinfo counterror
----------------------------------------
2013-12-24 4 2
2013-12-25 1 2
2013-12-26 2 1
Please if you could help me out with the Mysql query
Give this a try, maybe it can be written in a better way but this gives the desired output.
SELECT
DATE(Sub.dateadded) as `Date`,
( SELECT count(id)
FROM test.info
WHERE DATE(info.dateadded)=DATE(Sub.dateAdded)) as `CountInfo`,
( SELECT count(id)
FROM test.`error`
WHERE DATE(`error`.`date`)=DATE(Sub.dateAdded)) as `ErrorInfo`
FROM
(
SELECT `date` as dateadded
from test.`error`
UNION SELECT dateadded
FROM test.info
) Sub
GROUP BY Date(Sub.dateadded)
Notice that my database name used here is test
, change that to your database name.
Since the date field is from different tables, you must UNION
them in a subquery so that you can get the relevant dates. Then from there a simple subquery in the select is executed with the dateparameter.
In the future, try to name your tables with names that is not a datatype or function name etc, then the ` is not needed to wrap the database,table,column names
EDIT
If you want specific dates, just make use of WHERE
.
Add this line before the GROUP BY
WHERE DATE(Sub.dateadded) IN ('2013-12-24','2013-12-25')
If you want between a time span you can do this
WHERE DATE(Sub.dateadded) BETWEEN '2013-12-24' AND '2013-12-30'
This will give the dates available between 24-30 of December.
Try this for a pure MySQL approach:
SELECT dateAdded, COUNT(*) as count_info FROM info GROUP BY dateAdded;
SELECT date, COUNT(*) as count_error FROM error GROUP BY date;
Try this, please rename the table name that I have provided.
Info : Join both table get the count of distinct Id
select Date(dateadded) as datepart,
count(distinct(infotable.id)) as countInfo,
count(distinct(errortable.id)) as counterror from infotable inner join errortable
on Date(infotable.dateadded)=Date(errortable.date)
group by datepart
