It'll be about cities, parenthood, programming, climbing, urbanism, old scientific papers, books, power, and much more. Onward! Be entertained! Get novel OC via email. ItвЂ™s super basic select stuff from single tables, no joins or groupings or anything. Just for fun, and to familiarize myself with the databases and tables, I quickly worked through everything in chapter 4. The rest of my thinking on MySQL will hopefully just be on the actual building and executing queries, both as the relate to this book, and things IвЂ™m learning/wrestling with on the job.

IвЂ™m gonna carry on with my learnings elsewhere, and will update this gist occasionally, as needed. So I jump into one of the databases with a vendors table, run the above query, and have results! (I ran it against both SalesOrdersExample and SalesOrderModify, and got the same thing. If the database doesnвЂ™t have the Vendors table, the query comes up blank. The only thing to be mindful of seems to be selecting the right database. The query is (in plain english) вЂњShow me the names of all our vendorsвЂќ.Д®asy enough. I can pop over to page 98, in chapter 4, and run an example query on a given database, to see if it works. IвЂ™ve got the Third Edition of SQL for Mere Mortals, published in 2014. Lets spot check this to make sure it works. IвЂ™ll not touch the 02 files related to views yet, because i have no idea what those do. OK! IвЂ™m big on getting friction out of the way, and this is helpful. If you import one or all of them, youвЂ™ll see a very robust schema, with many tables and keys, but no actual content.ДЄfter importing the nine structure files, you might see something like this: As far as I can tell, all the files prefixed with 00 relate to the schema, but not the actual data. I started small, and imported everything prefixed with 00. In Sequel Pro, go to File > Import, and navigate to the data you downloaded and unzipped.

The data itself is in a zip available under the вЂњdownloadsвЂќ section here The book includes companion data so the reader can practice the queries mentioned in the book. You should now be connected to a database in Sequel Pro, and youвЂ™re ready to import some data. I followed these instructions to remove/reinstall.ДЄnd, the last setup command in the instructions is deprecated. Turns out I was using Brew to manage MySQL, and that wasnвЂ™t playing nice with other tools, so I threw my hands in the air, and did a clean uninstall/re-install of MySQL on my machine. The rest of this will still work, if youвЂ™re good running MySQL 5.7. My company uses MySQL 5.6, which is a generation behind the current 5.7, and navigating between the two locally was a massive headache.

Note: I ended up wiping my entire MySQL local install and instead setting it on Docker. So, IвЂ™m writing this guide as if you, dear reader, wanted to follow along through the book, and needed help getting the вЂњdev environmentвЂќ set up locally. Turns out, he helped me set it up! I got it working!ДЄnd then Turing took over my life, and I stopped studying, then I got a job, and moved machines, and had to start the install from scratch. I struggled so much getting it set up, I wrote this gist and gave it to a former coworker/awesome developer when he offered to help. IвЂ™ve got a copy of SQL Queries for Mere Mortals, and I plan on spending some time each day over the next ~month working through the lessons. Be it MySql, SQLite, PostgreSQL, etc - these are all relational database management tools, and (I assume) they have much in common with each other. IвЂ™m working on wrapping my head around SQL. The friction of getting set up kept me from getting started with this book, and I donвЂ™t want that to happen to you too. If you buy this book, and want to get set up with itвЂ™s accompanying data on your own computer, so you can practice yourself and follow along with the bookвЂ¦ read on. I wouldnвЂ™t have even thought to try that, if I didnвЂ™t know in advance what I could do with a basic SQL query. I figure any boost to my SQL skills will provide outsized returns down the road.ДЇor example, just today I used some basic SQL queries to validate an assumption I had about the frequencies of null values in certain places in our database. Pretty much everything on the internet lives in a database. The following started as a gist, and IвЂ™m putting here, so I can more easily share it with others. IвЂ™ve got more time in my life now, and the company I work for makes heavy use of SQL queries, so IвЂ™m spending a little time each day working through this book. UhjyGKv1FQ- Josh Thompson April 24, 2017 Yes, I'm digging into sql to better my AR skills, and ultimately whatever I need to use next. Turns out I didnвЂ™t dig into this book, because the pace at Turing didnвЂ™t allow for a few weeks of thinking just about SQL.
