dql

I have a DQL as like below: SELECT at, count(at.id) FROM AccountTriple at JOIN at.property p JOIN at.account ac WHERE p.create_analytics = '1' GROUP BY at.property, at.value, ac.service As you can see, it has three joins. As 'at' and 'ac' both have large amount of data. In attempt to optimize it, I am trying to move the "p.create_analytics = '1'" checking before join to 'ac' to give it a smaller data set to join. I am trying to achieve something like this: SELECT at, count(at.id) FROM ( SELECT at FROM AccountTriple at JOIN at.property p WHERE p.create_analytics = '1' ) JOIN at.account ac GROUP

Im trying to pass the ORDER BY column as a parameter in DQL, like below: $this->em->createQuery("SELECT t FROM Entities\Topic t ORDER BY :order") ->setParameters( array('order' => 't.name') )->getResult(); I guess it doesn't work because setParameter will escape :order, however the below solution doesn't seem very good: $order = 't.name'; // Dynamic value $this->em->createQuery("SELECT t FROM Entities\Topic t ORDER BY $order") ->getResult(); Is there a better way to solve this? In that case use Doctrines Querybuilder : $order = 't.name'; // Dynamic value $qb = $this->_em->createQueryBuilder();

How is the IFNULL of SQL implemented in Symfony2 Doctrine Query Builder? Let's say I have this query: select * from ticket order by IFNULL(modified_date, '2000-01-01') DESC, created_date DESC I have this DQL: $this->qb->select("t, c.name") ->from("Ticket", "t"); $this->qb->orderBy("t.modifiedDate", "DESC"); $this->qb->addOrderBy("t.createdDate", "DESC"); Now how to add the IFNULL part? ArVan Ok, done some research and found that there is no such implementation. Googled a little more, and got that this kind of missing features can be added to Doctrine as own functions. Found this extension on

DQL below generates an error: [Syntax Error] line 0, col 42: Error: Expected known function, got 'sha1' Any way of using SHA1? public function findIdByDql($hashId) { $em = $this->getEntityManager(); $query = $em->createQuery('DELETE FROM CarBrandBundle:Brands b WHERE sha1(b.id) = :id') ->setParameter('id', $hashId) ->execute(); return; } You need to create your own function which will translate sha1 function. Your app/config/config.yml file: doctrine: orm: dql: string_functions: sha1: YourBundle\DQL\Sha Your src/YourBundle/DQL/Sha.php file: namespace YourBundle\DQL; use Doctrine\ORM\Query\AST

I have this Query in native MySQL Code SELECT * FROM `turn` LEFT JOIN ( poi ) ON ( turn.id = poi.turn_id ) GROUP BY turn.id ORDER BY count( case when poi.image = 1 then 1 else null end) DESC; I need to rebuild this in Doctrine 2 DQL My attempt so far is this: SELECT t, COUNT((CASE WHEN Bundle\Entity\Poi p.image = 1 then 1 ELSE NULL END)) AS num FROM Bundle\Entity\Turn t JOIN t.pois p GROUP BY t.id ORDER BY num DESC And im getting this error: An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("[Syntax Error] line 0, col 99: Error: Expected end of string, got '.'") in Bundle:Admin

I can't find anything related to using COLLATE in a DQL query with Doctrine (and ofcourse it doesn't seem to work). My specific problem: I have a table with utf8_general_ci charset. I have one specific field in it which has accented characters (like 'á', 'ű', 'ő' etc.) A basic comparison with utf8_general_ci is not able to determine the difference between regular chars and their accented pairs (a = á, u = ű, o = ő), which is perfectly fine for me for the majority of the queries that land on that table! So if I have let's say: col1 | col2 ------|------- 1 | árvíz ------|------- 2 | arviz This
