Doctrine fetch join - php

First I will give an example with some pseudo code and then I will explain what is the problem. Let me say I have two entities User and Phonenumber. Their relation is one-to-many. In my UserRepository I can have something like that:
class UserRepository
{
public function getUser($id, $type)
{
$users = $this->createQuery("SELECT u, p FROM User u JOIN u.phonenumbers p
WHERE u.id = :id AND p.type = :type")
->setParameters(array(
'id' => $id,
'type' => $type,
))
->getResult();
return $users[0];
}
}
In my app if I have something like:
$user = $userRepo->getUser(1, 'home');
var_dump($user->getPhonenumbers()); // here phonenumbers collection is ok
$user = $userRepo->getUser(1, 'work');
var_dump($user->getPhonenumbers()); // Here phonenumbers collection is wrong.
// It's exactly the same as the previous one.
So my questions is: Is it possible to use fetch join (with different criteria) and to get the proper collection each time?

Fetch joining and filtering a collection are not things that work together quite well. Here's how you should do it:
SELECT
u, p
FROM
User u
JOIN
u.phonenumbers p
JOIN
u.phonenumbers p2
WHERE
u.id = :id
AND
p2.type = :type
This applies filtering on the second joined (and not hydrated) p2, which results in correct hydration and filtering.

Use querybuilder, it is much simpler.
public function getUser($id, $type)
{
return $this->createQueryBuilder("u")
->leftJoin("u.Phonenumbers", "p", "WITH", "p.type=:type")
->where("u.id=:id")
->setParameters(.....)
->getQuery()
->getOneOrNullResult() ;
}

Return ORM object and convert SQL to Doctrine QueryBuilder syntax

I'm creating a function that should return an array of User ORM object. The function should run a query to the DB and return the users where the users' contact persons has 1 company (not more or less). The relationship is like this: every user has one or more contact person and every contact person has one or more companies.
The SQL to locate these users are like this. We are using PHP 7.1, Symfony 3.4 and Doctrine 2.7.
The problem that I have is that I cannot manage to describe this in Doctrine QueryBuilder syntax so that an array of User ORM objects are returned. Can anybody give me some advice?
SELECT users.email
FROM company
INNER JOIN contact_person ON contact_person.id = company.belongs_to_contact_person_id
INNER JOIN users ON users.id = contact_person.belongs_to_user_id
GROUP BY users.email
HAVING COUNT(company.id) = 1
Depending on how your mapping is on your entities, you have multiple solution.
It would be nice if you can show us what you tried so we can see what you miss.
The best is to use the repository of the entity you whish to have an array of:
namespace App\Repository;
use App\Entity\User;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository;
class UserRepository extends EntityRepository
{
/**
* #return User[]
*/
public function findUsersHavingAtLeastOneCompany():array
{
return $this->createQueryBuilder('user')
->join('user.contact', 'contact')
->join('contact.company', 'company')
->where('contact.company = 1')
->getQuery()
->getResult();
}
}
When using the createQueryBuilder function, it will auto populate the select and the from.
The getResult will return an array of entity (if you have not defined a select)
I fixed this by using the following code using createNativeQuery. It can probably be done by using fever lines of code, but it does the job for me :)
$em = $this->getEntityManager();
$sql = <<<SQL
SELECT users.id
FROM company
INNER JOIN contact_person ON contact_person.id = company.belongs_to_contact_person_id
INNER JOIN users ON users.id = contact_person.belongs_to_user_id
GROUP BY users.id
HAVING COUNT(company.id) = 1
SQL;
$rsm = new ResultSetMapping();
$rsm->addScalarResult('id', 'text');
$query = $em->createNativeQuery($sql, $rsm);
$locatedUsers = [];
foreach ($query->getResult() as $lUser) {
foreach ($lUser as $user) {
$locatedUser = $em->find("Project\User\User", $user);
array_push($locatedUsers, $locatedUser);
}
}
return $locatedUsers;

prevent dql from entity joins

I want to write a DQL query that select post and join to another Entity's
here is my code
$dql = '
SELECT p , h ,t ,m
FROM App:Post p
LEFT JOIN p.mentions m
LEFT JOIN p.tags t
LEFT JOIN p.file h
WHERE p.user
IN (
SELECT f FROM App:User u
JOIN u.followers f
WHERE u.id = :uid
)
OR p.user = :uid ';
$query = $this->getEntityManager()
->createQuery($dql)
->setMaxResults(1)
->setParameters(['uid' => $user->getId()]);
$paginator = new Paginator($query, $fetchJoinCollection = true);
but the problem is the circular reference, for example, Post -> Tags -> Posts that is used in serialization and make project freeze and shows a blank page.
here is dump export
how can I handle that Except using loop look at PersistentCollection
UPDATE ::
here is my seriallizer code
$posts= [];
foreach ($paginator as $post) {
$posts[] = $post;
}
$serializer = SerializerBuilder::create()->build();
$gifts = $serializer->toArray($posts);
You can use serialization groups to avoid circular reference issues. Basically, this lets your define a group (or multiple ones) to each property, then you can ask only specific(s) group(s) to be serialized.

Laravel many to many loading related models with count

I am trying to link 4 tables and also add a custom field calculated by counting the ids of some related tables using laravel.
I have this in SQL which does what I want, but I think it can be made more efficient:
DB::select('SELECT
posts.*,
users.id AS users_id, users.email,users.username,
GROUP_CONCAT(tags.tag ORDER BY posts_tags.id) AS tags,
COUNT(DISTINCT comments.id) AS NumComments,
COUNT(DISTINCT vote.id) AS NumVotes
FROM
posts
LEFT JOIN comments ON comments.posts_id = posts.id
LEFT JOIN users ON users.id = posts.author_id
LEFT JOIN vote ON vote.posts_id = posts.id
LEFT JOIN posts_tags ON posts_tags.posts_id = posts.id
LEFT JOIN tags ON tags.id = posts_tags.tags_id
GROUP BY
posts.id,
posts.post_title');
I tried to implement it using eloquent by doing this:
$trending=Posts::with(array('comments' => function($query)
{
$query->select(DB::raw('COUNT(DISTINCT comments.id) AS NumComments'));
},'user','vote','tags'))->get();
However the NumComments value is not showing up in the query results.
Any clue how else to go about it?
You can't do that using with, because it executes separate query.
What you need is simple join. Just translate the query you have to something like:
Posts::join('comments as c', 'posts.id', '=', 'c.id')
->selectRaw('posts.*, count(distinct c.id) as numComments')
->groupBy('posts.id', 'posts.post_title')
->with('user', 'vote', 'tags')
->get();
then each post in the collection will have count attribute:
$post->numComments;
However you can make it easier with relations like below:
Though first solution is better in terms of performance (might not be noticeable unless you have big data)
// helper relation
public function commentsCount()
{
return $this->hasOne('Comment')->selectRaw('posts_id, count(*) as aggregate')->groupBy('posts_id');
}
// accessor for convenience
public function getCommentsCountAttribute()
{
// if relation not loaded already, let's load it now
if ( ! array_key_exists('commentsCount', $this->relations)) $this->load('commentsCount');
return $this->getRelation('commentsCount')->aggregate;
}
This will allow you to do this:
$posts = Posts::with('commentsCount', 'tags', ....)->get();
// then each post:
$post->commentsCount;
And for many to many relations:
public function tagsCount()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('Tag')->selectRaw('count(tags.id) as aggregate')->groupBy('pivot_posts_id');
}
public function getTagsCountAttribute()
{
if ( ! array_key_exists('tagsCount', $this->relations)) $this->load('tagsCount');
$related = $this->getRelation('tagsCount')->first();
return ($related) ? $related->aggregate : 0;
}
More examples like this can be found here http://softonsofa.com/tweaking-eloquent-relations-how-to-get-hasmany-relation-count-efficiently/
as of laravel 5.3 you can do this
withCount('comments','tags');
and call it like this
$post->comments_count;
laravel 5.3 added withCount

Symfony createNativeQuery, add count()

I have a query in a repository like :
$rsm = new ResultSetMapping;
$rsm->addEntityResult('\My\ProjectBundle\Entity\News', 't');
$rsm->addFieldResult('t', 'id', 'id');
$rsm->addMetaResult('t', 'account_id', 'account_id');
$qb = $this->_em->createNativeQuery(
'SELECT t.*
FROM news as t
LEFT JOIN
LEFT JOIN
WHERE
CONDITIONS CONDITIONS
',
$rsm
);
return $qb->getResult();
I simplified the above query which is used to retrieve the news that meet specific conditions.
I need to add a count() function to this query.
I have an other ManyToOne entity-relationship between Comment and News.
How to modify the query to get the comments number a given news has ?
I'm trying to add a left join to comment and add Count() in the select but I always get errors. How could I resolve this problem ?
Raw SQL with Doctrine is easier like this :
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager()->getConnection();
$query = "
SELECT t.*
FROM news as t
LEFT JOIN
LEFT JOIN
WHERE
CONDITIONS CONDITIONS
";
$stmt = $em->prepare($query);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->fetchAll();

How to convert this to a nice Eloquent query

How to query with Eloquent, all users without a certain type of certificate?
Laravel 4
I've got 2 tables:
users table:
->id
->name
certificats table:
->id
->user_id
->certificate_type
I`m struggling with this for hours now. Last thing i tried was:
$users = User::with(array('certificate' => function($query)
{
$query->where('type','!=','SL');
}))->get();
This gives me all the users, but i was trying to get all the users without certificate type 'SL'.
-- edit:
Spencer7593's raw query below works. But i`m not getting the eloquent query to work.
SELECT u.*
FROM users u
LEFT
JOIN certificates c
ON c.user_id = u.id
AND c.type = 'SL'
WHERE c.user_id IS NULL
The relationship:
public function certificate(){
return $this->hasMany('Certificate');
}
public function certificate(){
return $this->belongsTo('User');
}
The SQL to get the result set you want is fairly simple.
SELECT u.*
FROM users u
LEFT
JOIN certificates c
ON c.user_id = u.id
AND c.type = 'SL'
WHERE c.user_id IS NULL
That's a familiar pattern called an "anti-join". Basically, it's a LEFT JOIN look for matching rows, along with rows from users that don't have a match, and then filter out all rows that did get a match, and we're left with rows from users that don't have match.
The trick is going to be getting Eloquent to generate that SQL for you. To get Eloquent to do that, you need to tell eloquent to do a LEFT JOIN, and add a WHERE clause,
maybe something like this would be close:
->left_join('certificate AS c', function($join){
$join->on('c.user_id','=','user.id');
$join->and_on('c.type','=','SL');
})
->where_null('c.user_id')
FOLLOWUP
(For the benefit of those who might not read the comments)
Klass Terst (OP), reports syntax problems in the attempt at Eloquent (in the answer above): left_join needed to be replaced with leftJoin, and the and_on wasn't recognized. (The latter may have been my invention, based on the convention used in with where, and_where, or_where.)
$users = DB::table('users')
->select('users.id','users.name')
->leftJoin('certificate AS c', function($join){
$join->on('c.user_id','=','user.id');
$join->on('c.type','=','SL');
})
->where_null('c.user_id');
I believe the problem is in your relationships.
Models
class User extends Eloquent
{
public function certificates()
{
return $this->hasMany('Certificate');
}
}
class Certificate extends Eloquent
{
public function user()
{
return $this->belongsTo('User');
}
}
Controller
$users = User::with(array('certificates' => function($query)
{
$query->where('type','!=','SL');
}))->get();
return View::make('yourView')->with('users',$users);
View
#foreach($users as $user)
{{ $user->name }} // User's name
#foreach($user->certificates as $certificate)
{{ $certificate->certificate_type }} // Certificate type shouldn't be 'SL'
#endforeach
#endforeach
I hope this helps!
