window function to sort times series data?

От
Louis-David Mitterrand
Дата:
Hi,

I have time series data: price(id_price int, price int, created_on timestamp)

I'd like to select the latest price before, say, 2010-03-10 and the
latest price after that date.

Using "group by" and self-joins I was able to build a (quite large :)
working query. 

But I wonder if there is a cleaner, shorter solution with a window
function.

I tried something like:

select * from (select first_value(p.id_price) over w as first_id_price,first_value(p.price) over w as
first_price,first_value(p.created_on::date)over w as first_date,nth_value(p.id_price,2) over w as
second_id_price,nth_value(p.price,2)over w as second_price,nth_value(p.created_on::date,2) over w as second_date,
p.id_pricefromprice p   window w as (order by p.created_on > '2010-03-10, p.id_price desc   rows between unbounded
precedingand unbounded following))    as t where first_id_price=id_price;
 

But this doesn't return correct results.

Thanks for any suggestions,

test=*# select * from price ;id_price | price |     created_on

test=*# select * from ( select distinct on(id_price) id_price, price, created_on from price where created_on <

That's okay for you?

Yes, that works, but I forgot in my specs (!) that I'd like the two
prices (pre and post 2010-03-10) to be returned on the same row and only
if a post-2010-03-10 price exists.

Thanks,

Well:

test=*# select * from price ;id_price | price |     created_on
----------+-------+---------------------       1 |    10 | 2010-01-01 00:00:00       1 |    12 | 2010-02-01 00:00:00
  1 |     8 | 2010-03-01 00:00:00       1 |    15 | 2010-03-10 00:00:00       1 |    13 | 2010-03-20 00:00:00
 
(5 rows)

test=*# select id_price, sum(case when pre_post='pre' then price else 0
end) as pre, sum(case when pre_post='post' then price else 0 end) as
post, max(case when pre_post='pre' then created_on else null end) as
date_pre, max(case when pre_post='post' then created_on else null end)
as date_post from (select * from (select distinct on(id_price)
'pre'::text as pre_post, id_price, price, created_on from price where
created_on < '2010-02-20'::date order by id_price, created_on desc) foo
union all select * from (select distinct on(id_price) 'post'::text,
id_price, price, created_on from price where created_on >
'2010-02-20'::date order by id_price,created_on asc) bar order by
id_price, created_on) foo group by id_price;id_price | pre | post |      date_pre       |      date_post
----------+-----+------+---------------------+---------------------       1 |  12 |    8 | 2010-02-01 00:00:00 |
2010-03-0100:00:00
 
(1 row)


You can filter that result for rows where date_post is not null.

Nice use of lag() and lead() functions. 

In my db id_price is a serial so it's easy to use in an aggregate to
determine the latest.

I also looked at window functions and did the following:

select p3.price as first_price,   p4.price as second_price   from (select            first_value(max(p.id_price)) over
was first_id_price,            nth_value(max(p.id_price),2) over w as second_id_price,            p.created_on >
'2010-03-20'as is_new_price           from price p           group by p.created_on > '2010-03-20'           window w as
(orderby p.created_on > '2010-03-20'           desc rows between unbounded preceding and unbounded following)    ) as t
  join price p3 on (t.first_id_price=p3.id_price)    left join price p4 on (t.second_id_price=p4.id_price)    where
t.is_new_priceis true
 

test=# \efirst_price | second_price 
-------------+--------------         17 |           11
(1 row)

Is there some potential optimizations or flaws?

The $re$ is just an arbitrary identifier for a dollar-quoted string
constant. See:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-syntax-lexical.html

Maybe you're on an old version which doesn't support dollar-quoted strings?

On 8.3 for the above query, I get:

SELECT regexp_matches('foobarbequebaz', $re$(bar)(beque)$re$);regexp_matches
----------------{bar,beque}

Thanks very much for this.  I am using 8.4.2.

This query works as you describe in pgAdmin.

I had tried it in the SquirrelSQL client, which is where it produced the

<Unknown(2,003)>

result.

Obviously, this is a SquirrelSQL problem at least in part.

What does <Unknown(2,003)> mean?

Thanks again for directing me to the doc's on dollar quoting.

Hi John,

The type code 2003 indicates an SQL99 column type of ARRAY, which is
