Edit: Sorry to not mention before this is on a postgres 8.3 implementation.
I have a table of four columns that was built today table.
Source_IP, Destination_IP, user_type, ut_bool
The user_type
column continually gets new entries and so I want to compare it to a table o historical entries to see if it is new or not for the day in question. The source_ip
, destination_Ip
can be considered the primary key
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.1, type1, 0
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.1, type4, 1
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.4, type5, 0
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.4, type3, 0
10.1.1.2, 30.30.50.9, type2, 0
10.1.1.4, 30.30.30.4, type4, 0
10.1.1.4, 30.30.30.4, type3, 1
I am having trouble returning a 1 to a column for a given group of (source_ip, destination_ip
) pairs if a least one source_ip,destination_ip, user_type
pair has a 1 next to it so for example I want to get
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.1, 1
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.4, 0
10.1.1.4, 30.30.30.4, 1
I am not sure how to use the exists statement correctly.
How do I fix the following query?
select source_ip, destination_ip,
(
select
case when exists
(select true from table
where ut_bool =1)
then '1'
else '0' end
) as ut_new
from
table;
My query keeps returning because I am not using the exists statement correctly:
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.1, 0
10.1.1.2, 30.30.30.4, 0
10.1.1.4, 30.30.30.4, 0
I'd suggest modification of your SQL statement:
SELECT SOURCE_IP,
DESTINATION_IP,
CASE SUM(UT_BOOL)
WHEN 0
THEN 0
ELSE 1
END AS UT_NEW
FROM test_table_name
GROUP BY SOURCE_IP,
DESTINATION_IP;
Executed on your test data returns:
10.1.1.2 30.30.50.9 0
10.1.1.2 30.30.30.1 1
10.1.1.2 30.30.30.4 0
10.1.1.4 30.30.30.4 1
