Sub-queries ActiveRecord Yii


Is it possible to make sub-queries in ActiveRecord in Yii?

i have a query like this:

select * from table1 where table1.field1 in (select table2.field2 from table2)

i'm currently using the fallowing code:

object1::model()->findAll(array('condition'=>'t.field1 in (select table2.field2 from table2)'))

[Edit]
i would like to know if there is a manner to construct the sub-query without using SQL, and without using joins.

Is there any solution ?

and thanks in advance.


Solution

  • First find doublets by db fields:

    $model=new MyModel('search');
    $model->unsetAttributes();
    
    $criteria=new CDbCriteria();
    $criteria->select='col1,col2,col3';
    $criteria->group = 'col1,col2,col3';
    $criteria->having = 'COUNT(col1) > 1 AND COUNT(col2) > 1 AND COUNT(col3) > 1';
    

    Get the subquery:

    $subQuery=$model->getCommandBuilder()->createFindCommand($model->getTableSchema(),$criteria)->getText();
    

    Add the subquery condition:

    $mainCriteria=new CDbCriteria();
    $mainCriteria->condition=' (col1,col2,col3) in ('.$subQuery.') ';
    $mainCriteria->order = 'col1,col2,col3';
    

    How to use:

    $result = MyModel::model()->findAll($mainCriteria);
    

    Or:

    $dataProvider = new CActiveDataProvider('MyModel', array(
            'criteria'=>$mainCriteria,
    ));
