Getting unique values as a query result
I have a many-to-many relation with my database, so I created a sql query which later I will use for search. Now what I want to do is get a unique values from my search result (unique company names).
This is my query:
SELECT agencies.company
,agencies.website_url
,agencies.STATUS
,agencies.size
,IndustryData.industry_id
,ProfessionData.profession_id
,SectorData.sector_id
,seniorityData.seniority_id
,ZonesData.zone_id
FROM agencies
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT agencies_industries.agency_id
,agencies_industries.industry_id
FROM agencies_industries
) AS IndustryData ON agencies.id = IndustryData.agency_id
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT agencies_professions.agency_id
,agencies_professions.profession_id
FROM agencies_professions
) AS ProfessionData ON agencies.id = ProfessionData.agency_id
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT agencies_sectors.agency_id
,agencies_sectors.sector_id
FROM agencies_sectors
) AS SectorData ON agencies.id = SectorData.agency_id
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT agencies_seniorities.agency_id
,agencies_seniorities.seniority_id
FROM agencies_seniorities
) AS SeniorityData ON agencies.id = SeniorityData.agency_id
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT agencies_zones.agency_id
,agencies_zones.zone_id
FROM agencies_zones
) AS ZonesData ON agencies.id = ZonesData.agency_id
WHERE IndustryData.industry_id = 3
AND ProfessionData.profession_id = 1
The result looks like this:
company, website_url, status, size, industry_id, profession_id, sector_id, seniority_id, zone_id
- Nine nine.com 1 3 3 1 3 2 1
- Nine nine.com 1 3 3 1 3 2 5
- Nine nine.com 1 3 3 1 3 2 8
- Nine nine.com 1 3 3 1开发者_开发百科 3 5 1
- Nine nine.com 1 3 3 1 3 5 5
- Nine nine.com 1 3 3 1 3 5 8
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 1 1
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 1 3
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 1 7
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 3 1
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 3 3
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 3 7
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 5 1
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 5 3
- Ten ten.com 2 3 3 1 3 5 7
I would like to get rid of the repeats of the company names. How do I do that?
You could use a GROUP BY
for this, e.g.:
SELECT agencies.company
,agencies.website_url
,agencies.STATUS
,agencies.size
,IndustryData.industry_id
,ProfessionData.profession_id
,SectorData.sector_id
FROM ...
GROUP BY agencies.company
,agencies.website_url
,agencies.STATUS
,agencies.size
,IndustryData.industry_id
,ProfessionData.profession_id
,SectorData.sector_id
Maybe you could do that with variables and subqueries, as some examples shown here:

But maybe doing this at your code is faster than in your query.
