that didnt do it. And i would like to doit with one query if possible.
my db looks like this: db.define_table('images', SQLField('posted_on','datetime', default=request.now, writable=False, readable=False), SQLField('posted_by', db.auth_user, writable=False, readable=False), SQLField('public', 'string', requires=IS_IN_SET({'no': T('No'), 'yes': T('Yes')}), default="no"), SQLField('sha256', 'string', writable=False, readable=False), SQLField('org_filename','string', writable=False, readable=False), SQLField('image','upload')) db.define_table('keyword', SQLField('keyword', length=40)) db.define_table('image_info', SQLField('image_id', db.images), SQLField('Caption'), SQLField('Description','text'), SQLField('Creator','string'), SQLField('Copyright_Notice','string'), ) db.define_table('image_keyword', SQLField('image_id', db.images), SQLField('keyword_id', db.keyword)); On Jun 25, 4:04 pm, johann.scheibelho...@easytouch-edv.com wrote: > Maybe I'm wrong but I think Robert needs a left join. something like... > > result = db(db.images.id==db.image_info.image_id).select(\ > left=[db.keyword.on(db.keyword.id==db.image_keyword.keyword_id)]) > > web2py@googlegroups.com schrieb am 25.06.2009 15:19:50: > > > > > On Jun 25, 1:51 pm, Robert Marklund <robbelibob...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I would like to do a join but get results even if it was unsucessfull. > > > Like this > > > query = (db.images.id == db.image_info.image_id) & > > > (db.images.id==db.image_keyword.image_id) > > > & \ > > > (db.keyword.id==db.image_keyword.keyword_id) > > > I want to get the resulting rows even doe no keywords exists. > > > like this row.image = the image > > > row.image_info = the image info > > > row.keyword = None if there is no keyword. > > > Is this possible ? > > > Surely you just do 2 queries. > > 1st do the JOIN: > > query = (db.images.id == db.image_info.image_id) & > > (db.images.id==db.image_keyword.image_id) > > > Then add keywords via lookups: > > sqlrows = db(query).select() > > for row in sqlrows: > > query2 = (db.image_keyword.image_id==row.id) & > > (db.keyword.id==db.image_keyword.keyword_id) > > row.keyword = db(query2).select()[0] > > > (Untested code) > > > F --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
