I am trying to create a subquery in Cake. but not sure how to start :(

This is the SQL i want to execute

SELECT *
FROM (

SELECT *
FROM messages AS msg
WHERE user_id =1
ORDER BY modified DESC
) AS latest_message
GROUP BY reciever_id

Is it better to use sub Queries or write SQL statement ?

回答1:

Since you are trying to group by the receiver, then why not alter the query to retrieve the receivers and then the messages that belong to each one? Below, I am assuming use of the containable behavior.

$this->Receiver->find('all', array(
    'contain' => array(
        'Message' => array(
            'conditions' => array('Message.user_id' => 1),
            'order' => array('Message.modified' => 'DESC'),
        )
    )
));

EDIT

I added this query to see if it helps based on your comment.

$this->Message->find(
    'all',
    array(
        'conditions' => array('Message.user_id' => 1),
        'fields' => array('Message.*', 'MAX(Message.modified) as max_mod'),
        'group' => 'Message.receiver_id'
    )
);

回答2:

I'm not really sure what the necessity for a subquery is here, wouldn't something like this do the trick?

$this->Message->find('all', array(
    'conditions' => array('Message.user_id' => 1),
    'order' => array('Message.modified' => 'DESC'),
    'group' => array('Message.receiver_id')
));

This would retrieve all the messages from the user with id 1, ordered by date modified and grouped by receiver_id.
