select action_, count(*) as numoccurences, to_char(timestamp_ , 'hh24') || ':00:00-' || to_char(timestamp_ + 1/24, 'hh24') || ':00:00' as range from tq84_action where timestamp_ between timestamp '2010-11-19 08:00:00' and timestamp '2010-11-19 20:00:00' and type_ = 'A' group by action_, to_char(timestamp_ , 'hh24') || ':00:00-' || to_char(timestamp_ + 1/24, 'hh24') || ':00:00' order by range;
Now the select statement above returns a watch that has at least an action. To show a record for all hours - {processed / pending} combinations, the following changes should be made to the request:
select action_, count(type_) as numoccurences, to_char(timestamp_ , 'hh24') || ':00:00-' || to_char(timestamp_ + 1/24, 'hh24') || ':00:00' as range_ from ( select * from tq84_action where timestamp_ between timestamp '2010-11-19 08:00:00' and timestamp '2010-11-19 20:00:00' and type_ = 'A' union all ( select null as type_, action.name_ as action_, date '2010-11-19' + 8/24 + hour.counter_ / 24 as timestamp_1 from ( select level-1 counter_ from dual connect by level <= 12 ) hour, ( select 'processed' as name_ from dual union all select 'pending' as name_ from dual ) action ) ) group by action_, to_char(timestamp_ , 'hh24') || ':00:00-' || to_char(timestamp_ + 1/24, 'hh24') || ':00:00' order by range_;
By the way, DDL and DML are used here:
drop table tq84_action; create table tq84_action ( type_ varchar2( 1), action_ varchar2(10), timestamp_ timestamp ); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'processed' , timestamp '2010-11-19 10:00:00.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'processed' , timestamp '2010-11-19 10:46:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'processed' , timestamp '2010-11-19 11:46:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'processed' , timestamp '2010-11-19 12:46:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'processed' , timestamp '2010-11-19 12:48:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'pending' , timestamp '2010-11-19 11:46:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'pending' , timestamp '2010-11-19 11:50:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'pending' , timestamp '2010-11-19 12:46:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('A', 'pending' , timestamp '2010-11-19 12:48:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('B', 'pending' , timestamp '2010-11-19 19:48:45.000'); insert into tq84_action values('B', 'pending' , timestamp '2010-11-19 21:46:45.000');
