我正在尝试执行以下查询:
INSERT INTO table_listnames (name, address, tele)
VALUES ('Rupert', 'Somewhere', '022')
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT name FROM table_listnames WHERE name='value'
);
但是这会返回一个错误。基本上我不想插入一个记录，如果记录的“名称”字段已经存在于另一个记录-如何检查新名称是否唯一?
当前回答
我并不是建议你这样做，因为Piskvor和其他人建议的UNIQUE索引是一个更好的方法，但你实际上可以做你正在尝试的事情:
CREATE TABLE `table_listnames` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`address` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`tele` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB;
插入一个记录:
INSERT INTO table_listnames (name, address, tele)
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'Rupert', 'Somewhere', '022') AS tmp
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT name FROM table_listnames WHERE name = 'Rupert'
) LIMIT 1;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 1 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
SELECT * FROM `table_listnames`;
+----+--------+-----------+------+
| id | name | address | tele |
+----+--------+-----------+------+
| 1 | Rupert | Somewhere | 022 |
+----+--------+-----------+------+
尝试再次插入相同的记录:
INSERT INTO table_listnames (name, address, tele)
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'Rupert', 'Somewhere', '022') AS tmp
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT name FROM table_listnames WHERE name = 'Rupert'
) LIMIT 1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 0 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
+----+--------+-----------+------+
| id | name | address | tele |
+----+--------+-----------+------+
| 1 | Rupert | Somewhere | 022 |
+----+--------+-----------+------+
插入一条不同的记录:
INSERT INTO table_listnames (name, address, tele)
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'John', 'Doe', '022') AS tmp
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT name FROM table_listnames WHERE name = 'John'
) LIMIT 1;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 1 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
SELECT * FROM `table_listnames`;
+----+--------+-----------+------+
| id | name | address | tele |
+----+--------+-----------+------+
| 1 | Rupert | Somewhere | 022 |
| 2 | John | Doe | 022 |
+----+--------+-----------+------+
等等……
更新:
为了防止#1060 -重复列名错误，如果两个值可能相等，你必须命名内部SELECT的列:
INSERT INTO table_listnames (name, address, tele)
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'Unknown' AS name, 'Unknown' AS address, '022' AS tele) AS tmp
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT name FROM table_listnames WHERE name = 'Rupert'
) LIMIT 1;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 1 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
SELECT * FROM `table_listnames`;
+----+---------+-----------+------+
| id | name | address | tele |
+----+---------+-----------+------+
| 1 | Rupert | Somewhere | 022 |
| 2 | John | Doe | 022 |
| 3 | Unknown | Unknown | 022 |
+----+---------+-----------+------+
其他回答
我遇到了一个问题，迈克建议的方法部分有效，我有一个错误复制列名= '0'，并更改了您的查询的语法如下'
$tQ = "INSERT INTO names (name_id, surname_id, sum, sum2, sum3,sum4,sum5)
SELECT '$name', '$surname', '$sum', '$sum2', '$sum3','$sum4','$sum5'
FROM DUAL
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT sum FROM names WHERE name_id = '$name'
AND surname_id = '$surname') LIMIT 1;";
问题出在列名上。sum3等于sum4, mysql抛出重复的列名，我用这种语法写了代码，它工作得很好，
如果真的无法在表上获得唯一索引，您可以尝试…
INSERT INTO table_listnames (name, address, tele)
SELECT 'Rupert', 'Somewhere', '022'
FROM some_other_table
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT name
FROM table_listnames
WHERE name='Rupert')
LIMIT 1;
工作:
INSERT INTO users (full_name, login, password)
SELECT 'Mahbub Tito','tito',SHA1('12345') FROM DUAL
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT login FROM users WHERE login='tito');
为了克服类似的问题，我修改了表，使其具有唯一的列。用你的例子，在创建时，我会有这样的东西:
name VARCHAR(20),
UNIQUE (name)
然后在插入时使用以下查询:
INSERT IGNORE INTO train
set table_listnames='Rupert'
这个查询很有效:
INSERT INTO `user` ( `username` , `password` )
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'ersks', md5( 'Nepal' )) AS tmp
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT `username` FROM `user` WHERE `username` = 'ersks'
AND `password` = md5( 'Nepal' )) LIMIT 1
你可以使用下面的查询来创建表:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `user` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`username` varchar(30) NOT NULL,
`password` varchar(32) NOT NULL,
`status` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
注意:在尝试使用第一个查询之前，使用第二个查询创建表。
