Using Vitess v8 (PlanetScale DB) Table:
CREATE TABLE `Channel` (
`id` INTEGER UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`guildId` INTEGER UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
`name` VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL,
`description` TEXT NULL,
`createdAt` DATETIME(3) NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(3),
`position` INTEGER NOT NULL,
`parentId` INTEGER NULL,
`ratelimit` INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
`type` ENUM('textChannel', 'categoryChannel') NOT NULL,
INDEX `Channel_guildId_idx`(`guildId`),
UNIQUE INDEX `Channel_guildId_name_key`(`guildId`, `name`),
UNIQUE INDEX `Channel_guildId_position_key`(`guildId`, `position`),
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
Test Data:
INSERT INTO Channel (id, guildId, name, position, type) VALUES (1, 1, 'ch1', 1, 'textChannel');
INSERT INTO Channel (id, guildId, name, position, type) VALUES (2, 1, 'ch2', 2, 'textChannel');
INSERT INTO Channel (id, guildId, name, position, type) VALUES (3, 1, 'ch3', 3, 'textChannel');
First step: (It's ok if you don't understand why this step is important)
UPDATE `Channel` SET `position` = 0.5 WHERE `id` = 3;
Edited query provided by Ergest:
UPDATE `Channel` AS `ch`
INNER JOIN (
SELECT `id` as `id2`,
( SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM (SELECT * FROM `Channel`) AS `b`
WHERE `b`.`position` <= `a`.`position`
) AS `p`
FROM `Channel` AS `a` WHERE `guildId` = 1
) AS `td` ON `ch`.`id` = `td`.`id2`
SET `ch`.`position` = `td`.`p`;
Error:
error: code = AlreadyExists desc = Duplicate entry '1-2' for key 'Channel.Channel_guildId_position_key' (errno 1062)
You are using ORDER BY
.
MySQL docs :
Multiple-table syntax: For the multiple-table syntax, UPDATE updates rows in each table named in table_references that satisfy the conditions. Each matching row is updated once, even if it matches the conditions multiple times. For multiple-table syntax, ORDER BY and LIMIT cannot be used.
I see no point on using ORDER BY position ASC
inside subquery when you are not using LIMIT
Try using INNER JOIN
:
UPDATE `Channel` AS `ch`,
INNER JOIN (
SELECT`id`,
( SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM `Channel` AS `b`
WHERE `b`.`position` <= `a`.`position`
) AS `p`
FROM `Channel` AS `a` WHERE `guildId` = 1
) AS `td` on `ch`.`id` = `td`.`id`;
SET `ch`.`position` = `td`.`p` ;
