How do I select records from Sqlite table partially grouped?












0















I have a table like this. And I want to select Fruits grouped together based on the group_id but not the Vegetables and Nuts. For Vegetable and Nuts, I want them all.



  group_id  name                type
-----------------------------------
1 Green Apple Fruit
1 Red Apple Fruit
1 Blue Apple Fruit
2 Green Peas Vegetable
2 Snow Peas Vegetable
2 Another Pea Vegetable
3 Ground Nut Nuts
3 Peanut Nuts
4 Carrot Vegetable


This is how I have tried right now. This works well, but I want to know if there is any simpler approach.



select * from Grocessaries GROUP BY group_id HAVING type in ('Fruit', 'Drinks')     

UNION all

select * from Grocessaries where type in ('Vegetable', 'Nuts')


Basically, I want the result something like this (grouped Fruits and all Vegetables and Nuts)



group_id  name                type
-----------------------------------
1 Green Apple Fruit
2 Green Peas Vegetable
2 Snow Peas Vegetable
2 Another Pea Vegetable
3 Ground Nut Nuts
3 Peanut Nuts
4 Carrot Vegetable

    Can you elaborate on logic? Why Blue and Red apples were filtered out but Snow Peas stayed in your desired output?

    In the first query GROUP BY group_id make no sence because you didn't use any aggregate function..

  • It looks like you're mixing grouping and ordering

  • Order is not a problem for me. I've removed the ordering part from the query. I just care about the grouping part.

Since you're handling Fruits (and Drinks) specially in the UI the actual name returned for them isn't that important so you could do



SELECT group_id,
CASE type
WHEN 'Fruits' THEN 'Fruits' -- or whatever you want to display
WHEN 'Drinks' THEN 'Drinks'
ELSE name
END NameGrouped,
type
FROM Grocessaries
GROUP BY group_id, NameGrouped, type
