如何在Eloquent中通过外表中的列聚合与多对多关系进行分组?
I am starting to get headaches over this so I thought I just post it here.
I have two tables that are related through a pivot table (as it is a many-to-many relationship). I use Laravel and Eloquent (but general help on how to achieve this with normal SQL queries is also highly appreciated).
I want to order the first table based a column of the second one but the column needs to be "aggregated" for this.
Example with Cars that are shared by many drivers and can have different colors:
Car-Table: [id, color]
Driver-Table: [id, name]
Car.Driver-Table: [car_id, driver_id]
I need a query that gets all drivers that only drive red cars and then all that don't drive red cars.
I have to use a query because I'll maybe do other things (like filtering) on this query afterwards and want to paginate in the end.
I already use queries that get either one of the two groups. They look like this:
In the Driver model:
public function redCars() {
return $this->cars()->where('color', 'red');
}
public function otherColoredCars() {
return $this->cars()->where('color', '<>', 'red');
}
And then in somewhere in a controller:
$driversWithOnlyRedCars = Driver::whereDoesntHave('otherColoredCars')->get();
$driversWithoutRedCars = Driver::whereDoesntHave('redCars')->get();
Is there a way to combine these two?
Maybe I am just thinking completely wrong here.
Update for clarification:
Basically I would need something like this (ot any other way that would lead to the same outcome)
$driversWithOnlyRedCars->addTemporaryColumn('order_column', 0); // Create temporary column with value 0
$driversWithoutRedCars->addTemporaryColumn('order_column', 1);
$combinedQuery = $driversWithOnlyRedCars->combineWith($driversWithoutRedCars); // Somehow combine both queries
$orderedQuery = $combinedQuery->orderBy('order_colum');
$results = $combinedQuery->get();
Update 2
I think, I found out how to get near my goal with raw queries.
Would be something like this:
$a = DB::table(DB::raw("(
SELECT id, 0 as ordering
FROM drivers
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM cars
LEFT JOIN driver_car ON car.id = driver_car.car_id
WHERE driver.id = driver_car.driver_id
AND cars.color = 'red'
)
) as only_red_cars"));
$b = DB::table(DB::raw("(
SELECT id, 1 as ordering
FROM drivers
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM cars
LEFT JOIN driver_car ON car.id = driver_car.car_id
WHERE driver.id = driver_car.driver_id
AND cars.color <> 'red'
)
) as no_red_cars"));
$orderedQuery = $a->union($b)->orderBy('ordering');
Now the problem is that I need the models ordered like this and paginated in the end so this is not really an answer to my question. I tried to convert this back to models but I didn't succeed yet. What I tried:
$queriedIds = array_column($orderedQuery->get()->toArray(), 'id');
$orderedModels = Driver::orderByRaw('(FIND_IN_SET(drivers.id, "' . implode(',', $queriedIds) . '"))');
But looks like FIND_IN_SET
only allows for a column of the table as second parameter. Is there another way to get the Models in the right order out of the ordered union query?
You can use a UNION
query:
$driversWithOnlyRedCars = Driver::select('*', DB::raw('0 as ordering'))
->whereDoesntHave('otherColoredCars');
$driversWithoutRedCars = Driver::select('*', DB::raw('1 as ordering'))
->whereDoesntHave('redCars');
$drivers = $driversWithOnlyRedCars->union($driversWithoutRedCars)
->orderBy('ordering')
->orderBy('') // TODO
->paginate();
How do you want drivers with the same ordering
to be ordered? You should add a second ORDER BY
clause to get a consistent order every time you execute the query.
This is the best I got:
$driversWithOnlyRedCars = Driver::whereHas('cars',function($q){
$q->where('color', 'red');
})->withCount('cars')->get()->where('cars_count',1);
