Hi,

 

I would like to populate the children_ids column with all the ids of the children recursively (+ grandchildren etc.)

If I do it top-bottom I will end up doing extra work since there is no need to go all levels down if I can just compute my IMMEDIATE children "children_ids" and just concatenate all their lists.

 

I looked at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41376655/how-can-i-traverse-a-tree-bottom-up-to-calculate-a-weighted-average-of-node-va

But was not able to get it to work on my case.  

 

Your assistance is most welcome!

 

 

create table tree(id int primary key, parent int, children_ids text);

insert into tree (id, parent) values
