Thread: Calling the CTE for multiple inputs
I have a CTE that takes top left and bottom right latitude/longitude values
along with a start and end date and it then calculates the amount of user
requests that came from those coordinates per hourly intervals between the
given start and end date. However, I want to execute this query for about
2600 seperate 4-tuples of lat/lon corner values instead of typing them in
one-by-one. How would I do that? The code is as below:
WITH cal AS ( SELECT generate_series('2011-02-02 00:00:00'::timestamp , '2012-04-01
05:00:00'::timestamp, '1 hour'::interval) AS stamp
),
qqq AS ( SELECT date_trunc('hour', calltime) AS stamp, count(*) AS zcount FROM mytable WHERE calltime >= '2011-02-13
11:59:11' AND calltime <= '2012-02-13 22:02:21' AND (calltime::time >= '11:59:11' AND calltime::time <=
'22:02:21') AND ((extract(DOW from calltime) = 3) /*OR (extract(DOW from calltime) =
5)*/) AND lat BETWEEN '40' AND '42' AND lon BETWEEN '28' AND '30'GROUP BY date_trunc('hour', calltime)
)
SELECT cal.stamp, COALESCE (qqq.zcount, 0) AS zcount
FROM cal
LEFT JOIN qqq ON cal.stamp = qqq.stamp
WHERE cal.stamp >= '2011-02-13 11:00:00' AND cal.stamp <= '2012-02-13 22:02:21' AND ((extract(DOW from cal.stamp) =
3)/*OR (extract(DOW from cal.stamp) =
5)*/) AND ( extract ('hour' from cal.stamp) >= extract ('hour' from '2011-02-13
11:00:00'::timestamp) AND extract ('hour' from cal.stamp) <= extract ('hour' from '2012-02-13
22:02:21'::timestamp) )
ORDER BY stamp ASC;
And the sample output for the query above:
calltime zcount
"2011-02-16 11:00:00" 0
"2011-02-16 12:00:00" 70
"2011-02-16 13:00:00" 175
"2011-02-16 14:00:00" 97
"2011-02-16 15:00:00" 167

The code is as below: > > AND lat BETWEEN '40' AND '42' > AND lon BETWEEN '28' AND '30' I don't really follow but if I understand correctly you want to generate 2600 distinct rows containing values like (40, 42, 28, 30)? You could use "generate_series()" to generate each individual number along with a row_number and then join them all together: SELECT lat_low, lat_high, long_low, long_high FROM (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER () AS index, generate_series(...) AS lat_low) lat_low_rel NATURAL JOIN (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER () AS index, generate_series(...) AS lat_high) lat_high_rel NATURAL JOIN (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER () AS index, generate_series(...) AS long_low) long_low_rel NATURAL JOIN (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER () AS index, generate_series(...) AS long_high) long_high_rel You may (probably will) need to move the generate_series into a FROM clause in the sub-query but the concept holds. Then in the main query you'd simply... AND lat BETWEEN lat_low AND lat_high AND lon BETWEEN long_low AND long_high HTH David J.

Sometimes it's easiest to just wrap it in an SQL function.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION some_expr( lat_low IN integer, lat_high IN
integer, lon_low IN integer, lon_high IN integer, calltime OUT
timestamptz, zcount OUT integer) returns setof record as $$
-- ... query text here, using $1 through $4 to refer to parameters
$$ LANGUAGE 'SQL';
... then invoke with something like (untested, from memory):
SELECT (some_expr(lat_low, lat_high, lon_log, lon_high).*)
FROM table_containing_lat_lon_pairs;
Alternately you may be able to rephrase the `qqq` part as a `join` on a
table containing the lat/lon pairs and include those pairs in `qqq`'s
output as well as the rest. You then use those in the outer query where
required. Without a schema to test with and some understanding of what
the query does it's hard to say exactly.
Wrapping it in a function is likely to be less efficient, but probably
easier.

Thanks for the info, used a join in order to do that, now I have a "print rows with zcount 0" problem in my new question at http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/How-to-make-this-CTE-also-print-rows-with-0-as-count-td5726792.html -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Calling-the-CTE-for-multiple-inputs-tp5726661p5726793.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - sql mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

The code is as below: I see that your're using the CTE only to fill-in the nulls in main query group-by is it the same plan for the coordinates (non-overlapping ranges)? how are your coordinates respresented? -- ⚂⚃ 100% natural
