Select count() in Doctrine DQL with left join manyToMany unidirectional relation where user does NOT have relation specific group
Solution 1
The only way I managed to do it in DQL is use subquery:
SELECT COUNT(u)
FROM RAZUserBundle:User u
WHERE u.id NOT IN (
SELECT u2.id
FROM RAZUserBundle:User u2
JOIN u2.groups g WITH g.id = 70
)
Solution 2
I don't think your DQL is quite right. Can you post it? But in the meantime, this should work.
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$qb = $em->createQueryBuilder();
$result = $qb->select('COUNT(u)')
->from('UserBundle:User' , 'u')
->leftJoin('u.UserGroup','g')
->where('g.GroupId = :id')
->andWhere('g.UserId = :null')
->setParameter('id', 70)
->setParameter('null', null)
->getQuery()
->getOneOrNullResult();
Also writing your DQL this way is easier to read ;)

Situaction: I am trying to select count() in DQL for users NOT in specific group.
Standard ManyToMany unidirectional relation between
User
andGroup
entities fromFOSUserBundle
(andSonataUserBundle
). System: Symfony 2.5, Doctrine 2.4.Entity User
P.S. this is not real code copied. It is not possible because there are several layers extending with different config files in different formats and places, so if you spot mistype, this is not the problem.
namespace RAZ\UserBundle\Entity; /** * @ORM\Table(name="fos_user_user") */ class User { /** * @var integer * * @ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer") * @ORM\Id * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO") */ protected $id; /** * @var Collection * * @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Group") * @ORM\JoinTable(name="fos_user_user_group") */ protected $groups; }
Entity Group
namespace RAZ\UserBundle\Entity; /** * @ORM\Table(name="fos_user_group") */ class Group { /** * @var integer * * @ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer") * @ORM\Id * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO") */ protected $id; }
Question: can this even be done in DQL?
Question very similar to: How to get entities in a many-to-many relationship that do NOT have a corresponding linked entity with DQL and Doctrine? The difference is I need to check for only one specific group.
Working SQL (returns 1423):
SELECT COUNT(*) cnt FROM fos_user_user u LEFT JOIN fos_user_user_group dug ON u.id = dug.user_id AND dug.group_id = 70 WHERE dug.user_id IS NULL
Incorrectly working DQL (returns 3208):
SELECT COUNT(u) FROM RAZUserBundle:User u LEFT JOIN u.groups dug WITH dug.id = 70 WHERE dug IS NULL
Problem is DQL generates different SQL:
SELECT COUNT(u.id) FROM fos_user_user u LEFT JOIN fos_user_user_group ug ON u.id = ug.user_id LEFT JOIN fos_user_group g ON g.id = ug.group_id AND (g.id = 70) WHERE g.id IS NULL
Any suggestions?
