Here are two options:
if (db(select(count(t.alpha)).from(t).where(true)).front().count > 0)
{ /* do something */ }
if (db(select(exists(select(t.alpha).from(t).where(true)))).front().exists)
{ /* do something */ }
from sqlpp11.
Why is so difficult and not obvious?
I expected something like this:
if ( db(select(t).count(t.nickname).where(t.nickname="Bob")) )
{ /* do something */ }
from sqlpp11.
Why do you think it is difficult?
auto query = select(count(t.id)).from(t).where(t.nickname == "Bob");
That is almost verbatim the query you wanted to use. Now you have to hand that to the database connection
auto result = db(query);
And you need to evaluate the value of count
in the first row
if (result.front().count > 0)
{ /* do something */ }
I just chained those things together:
if (db(select(count(t.id)).from(t).where(t.nickname == "Bob")).front().count > 0)
{ /* do something */ }
If you insist on something shorter, you could also do this.
if (!db.select(t.id).from(t).where(t.nickname=="Bob").empty()))
{}
That is shorter but not very efficient if there are thousands of entries with nickname Bob.
Or you could do this in a function or lambda:
for (db(select(t.id).from(t).where(nickname == "Bob")))
{
return true;
}
return false;
That being said, I am not sure how to interpret your suggestion. The syntax is quite different from all examples. There is no from and the selected column (the count) is not in the argument list of select. count
seems to be a member function of the select statement. That would be quite tough do do (you would also want to add other aggregating functions, too).

Hmm...
Using this expression:
const bool exists = db(sqlpp::select(sqlpp::count(users_tbl.nickname)).from(users_tbl).where(users_tbl.nickname=nickname)).front().count > 0;
I get the following errors:
db_controller.cpp: In member function ‘bool support_server::db_controller::user_exists(const string&)’:

My bad %)
... where(users_tbl.nickname=nickname)
should be
... where(users_tbl.nickname==nickname)
Sorry for the noise.

I understand, but I think it would be nice to add a little "syntactic sugar" for expressions like that I gave. But that's just my opinion...
if ( db(count(t).where(t.nickname=="Bob")) )
{}
or
if ( db(exists(t).where(t.nickname=="Bob")) )
{}
from sqlpp11.
Got it. I'll think about it.
from sqlpp11.
if (!db.select(t.id).from(t).where(t.nickname=="Bob").empty()))
{}
There is one extra closing parenthesis(')').
In any case, something is wrong with this expression, because I get the following error:
db_controller.cpp:112:53: error: ‘class sqlpp::sqlite3::bind_result_t’ has no member named ‘from’
const bool exists = db.select(users_tbl.id).from(users_tbl).where(users_tbl.nickname == nickname).empty();
Ideas?
from sqlpp11.
if (!db.select(t.id).from(t).where(t.nickname=="Bob")).empty())
{}
This should be OK (I cannot test right now).
empty() is a member function of result.
from sqlpp11.
The same error.
Example:
const bool exists = (db.select(users_tbl.id).from(users_tbl).where(users_tbl.nickname == nickname)).empty();
db_controller.cpp:112:54: error: ‘class sqlpp::sqlite3::bind_result_t’ has no member named ‘from’
const bool exists = !(db.select(users_tbl.id).from(users_tbl).where(users_tbl.nickname == nickname)).empty();
from sqlpp11.
if (!db(select(t.id).from(t).where(t.nickname=="Bob")).empty())
{}
Note to self: Do not write code when distracted...
from sqlpp11.
I distract you too, I'm sorry :(
But I doubt that someone other will be able to answer my questions about sqlpp11. Thank you so much that you did not leave me alone with sqlpp11! =)
from sqlpp11.
Well, the good thing is: You are becoming knowledgeable too, I guess, and might be able to answer future questions by other users, or help documenting ;-)
from sqlpp11.
You're right, of course ;)
from sqlpp11.
one more question...
db(sqlpp::insert_into(users_tbl).set(users_tbl.nickname=nickname));
error:
/usr/local/include/sqlpp11/insert_value_list.h:434:7: error: static assertion failed: At least one required column is missing in set()
static_assert(not std::is_same<_database_t, void>::value or detail::have_all_required_columns<lhs_t<Assignments>...>::value, "At least one required column is missing in set()");
^
from sqlpp11.
If you look through the generated table code, you will find that one or more columns contain a flag that they are required in insert statements. This is decided by the code generator (e.g. your PP code).
Personally, if a column cannot be NULL, I like to enforce it in the insert statement.
I'll close this issue now, OK? We kind of left the original topic :-)
from sqlpp11.
Oh, my bad, again %)
Thank you!
I'll close this issue now, OK?
Sure.
