Hello,
I have two tables: Accounts and History. Basically, I want to see how
much activity each account has during a given period of time. Even if
an account has no activity, I still want to see it in the result
(naturally with zeros or null). In the history table, there is a
column called time_sec—it's a UNIX timestamp. That is the column
needed to restrict the counting to a particular day or month. My
problem is that either I get all the accounts (good) without
restricting to a day or month (bad)...
SELECT
accounts.id,
accounts.account_name,
accounts.company_name,
history.msg_src,
COUNT(history.msg_src) as msg_num
FROM accounts
LEFT JOIN history ON history.account_id = accounts.id
GROUP BY accounts.id, msg_src
ORDER BY accounts.id DESC, history.msg_src ASC
... or I get a result that is restricted (good), but without showing
all the accounts (bad)...
SELECT
accounts.id,
accounts.account_name,
accounts.company_name,
history.msg_src,
COUNT(history.msg_src) as msg_num
FROM accounts
LEFT JOIN history ON history.account_id = accounts.id
WHERE
history.time_sec > 1138604400 AND history.time_sec < 1138652381
GROUP BY accounts.id, msg_src
ORDER BY accounts.id DESC, history.msg_src ASC
What I need to do, somehow, is apply that WHERE clause to the COUNT
part of the SELECT. Any ideas?
