Hi,

I have a fairly complex SQL statement I'd like to convert to AREL

SELECT count(matches.id), players.*
FROM clubs
INNER JOIN players ON players.club_id = clubs.id
INNER JOIN rankings ON rankings.player_id = players.id
INNER JOIN tournaments ON rankings.tournament_id = tournaments.id
LEFT OUTER JOIN matches ON (matches.p1_id = players.id OR
matches.p2_id = players.id)
AND clubs.id = 7
AND tournaments.id = 19
GROUP BY players.id

How would I do this?

One step at a time ...


Even though you have the query Club-centric, you're asking for players.* so I'd start with the Player model:

Player.select('count(matches.id) as match_count, players.*')

Then you have inner joins:
      .joins([:club, { :rankings => :tournament }])

And then an outer join (this is a tricky one and depends on how you've defined the associations):
      .includes(:matches)

Looks like you already know the club and the tournament:
      .where(['clubs.id = ? AND tournaments.id = ?', 7, 19])

And you want the count() function to behave:
      .group('players.id')

Then ask for all of 'em:
      .all

That may not actually work, but it certainly ought to give you some hints. (And there's probably other ways to get the same information, but you need to ask a better question to get a better answer.)
