with 3 models : user has_many posts / user has_many comments
Using the new Active Record Query Interface , I am trying to write a
query involving 2 counts in the select method :
writing
@search = User.joins(:posts).select("*, users.id as user_id,
COUNT(posts.id) as posted").uniq.group('users.id')
generates the SQL :
SELECT DISTINCT users.id as user_id, COUNT(posts.id) as posted FROM
`users` INNER JOIN `posts` ON `posts`.`user_id` = `users`.`id` GROUP
BY users.id;
which is fine. I get
user_id posted
1 9
2 1
3 3
4 14
5 17
I can also write a similar line to query the users.comments
( replacing posts by comments ...
@search = User.joins(:comments).select("*, users.id as user_id,
COUNT(comments.id) as commented").uniq.group('users.id')
which generates the SQL:
SELECT DISTINCT users.id as user_id, COUNT(comments.id) as commented
FROM `users` INNER JOIN `comments` ON `comments`.`user_id` =
`users`.`id` GROUP BY users.id;
also correct, and I get
user_id commented
1 42
2 40
3 40
4 32
5 30
I would like to have a single line to get both, posted and commented
counts, but if I write :
@search = User.joins(:posts, :comments).select("*, users.id as
user_id, COUNT(posts.id) as posted, COUNT(comments.id) as
commented").uniq.group('users.id') , this generates the SQL:
SELECT DISTINCT users.id as user_id, COUNT(IF(comments.user_id =
users.id, 1, NULL)) as commented FROM `users` INNER JOIN `comments` ON
`comments`.`user_id` = `users`.`id` GROUP BY users.id;
user_id posted commented
and I get with :
user_id posted commented
1 378 378
2 40 40
3 120 120
4 448 448
5 510 510
which is the combined number of records : posted * commented ....
and not
user_id posted commented
1 9 42
2 1 40
3 3 40
4 14 32
5 17 30
where am I wrong ? thanks for feedback
