Create or find Query builder for mysql or any db

Ok. Is there a query builder tool out there that will let me create queries on the fly for an application or do I need to build it myself? This is the scenario. I have a client that is in the real estate business, and he wants users to be able to go to his site, query his (mysql)-at the moment db, and get a result set back. I could easily create some queries that would take in a paramater and query the db for it and return result back. But, he wants them to be able to be able to put in specific info. Houses in this certain region, certain number of bedrooms, houses in this price range, etc... I have done a few query statements, but never built a dynamic query tool. What are my options, and/or how would I go about this and what should I use?

Most query builders I have seen simply allow the user to build an SQL select statement, given a list of tables and the columns in those tables. But you do not want one of those, as the users of the site aren't going to want to write SQL. You need to write some code that takes their selections (e.g. a drop-down box with a list of region codes, a text box for number of bathrooms, whatever) and builds a query from that.
I think any package that did that sort of thing would be so complex (think Struts for example) that you are better off writing the code yourself.

Configure "Query Builder" for Theta-Style Joins over ANSI-Style Joins

Can SQL Developer be configured to auto generate theta-style joins instead of ANSI-style joins when building queries? This happens when I generate a query using the Query Builder and then switch over to the Worksheet tab to see the SQL code.
Sample code:
Theta-style join syntax uses commas to separate multiple table names and creates the joins in the Where clause:
SELECT c.name
FROM instructors i, courses c
WHERE i.firstname = 'Mary' AND i.lastname = 'Williams'
AND i.course_id = c.course_id;
ANSI syntax uses the JOIN and ON keywords instead:
SELECT c.name
FROM instructors i JOIN courses c
ON i.course_id = c.course_id
WHERE i.firstname = 'Mary' AND i.lastname = 'Williams';

Hi Wes,
There is no preference for configuring this that I know of, but Query Builder is fairly clever about detecting your flavor of SQL from the worksheet then sticking with it. If you design it graphically, the default flavor is ANSI, but QB seems to respect any worksheet edits that switch it to another flavor. I wouldn't vouch for that absolutely, but perhaps it's behavior you can take advantage of.

GUI Query Builder for Users

Hey all,
For anyone who was following my last post, I did convince my
boss to buy CF, so epic win there. I am now starting to replace
some our existing software with CF based code. One of the first
things we would like to do is setup a "Query builder" type of
thing. Basically we have a database with over 100 fields in a
particular table. I need some kind of interface that will allow a
user to easily build a complex query that can include any number of
those fields. Before I start reinventing the wheel I was wondering
if anyone had code for something like this already or could point
in the direction of a place that might. All it needs to do is put a
nice front end on an SQL query basically, and really only for the
where statement part of it. We are always going to be selecting the
same info, from the same table, but what records we select will be
very very different. Thanks in advance.

A slightly more fleshed out example: Code is CF8 based, some
features
not compatible with older versions, but easily convertible.
<cfscript>
aTest = [
label = 'foobar',
updateable = false,
type = 'picklist'
label = 'george',
updateable = true,
type = 'int'
label = 'nix',
updateable = true,
type = 'picklist'
label = 'gracie',
updateable = false,
type = 'text'
</cfscript>
<cfdump var="#aTest#">
<cfset FormItems = structNew()>
<cfloop array="#aTest#" index="key">
<cfset aTemp = structNew()>
<cfset aTemp.label = key.label>
<cfset aTemp.updateable = key.updateable>
<cfset aTemp.type = key.type>
<cfif NOT structKeyExists(FormItems,key['type'])>
<cfset FormItems[key['type']] = arrayNew(1)>
</cfif>
<cfset arrayAppend(FormItems[key['type']],aTemp)>
</cfloop>
<cfdump var="#FormItems#">
<cfoutput>
<cfloop collection="#formItems#" item="elemAry">
<h1>#elemAry#</h1>
<cfloop array="#formItems[elemAry]#" index="element">
<p>#element.label# - #element.updateable# -
#element.type#</p>
</cfloop>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
Will need some modification to match your situation and there
is some
redundancy that could be eliminated. But should be a good
proof of concept.

Query Builder for Date

If (LIKE @Name+ '%') is for searching names in Local Database then what is the Query if we want to find for date

You could use BETWEEN:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187922.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
SELECT * FROM Table WHERE [DateColumn] IS BETWEEN '2015-01-01' AND '2015-12-31'
Or you could compare with different parts of a date, for example the month:
SELECT * from Table1 WHERE MONTH(DateColumn) = 1 -- = January
But please ask T-SQL related questions in the appropriate forum:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=transactsql
Please also remember to close your threads by marking helpful posts as answer and then start a new thread if you have a new question.

Query Folding for MySQL and PostgreSQL

Hi there!
I use simple M code (see below) but PQ load all rows instead of doing Query Folding.
What's wrong?
let
    Source = MySQL.Database("10.8.0.10", "leb"),
    leb_x_sale_orders = Source{[Schema="leb",Item="x_sale_orders"]}[Data],
    #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(leb_x_sale_orders,{"ID", "CANCELED", "PRICE", "USER_ID", "DATE_INSERT"}),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Other Columns", each Date.IsInPreviousDay([DATE_INSERT]))
in
    #"Filtered Rows"

Thank you for the feedback. From a quick look, perhaps the Date functions are not folding. Here is a relevant
post.
You may consider to use text functions as a workaround, or wait till we check this out.

HT4796 Pc cant find the Imac for tranfers.. any suggestions ??

Apple people .. please help me..

What is your problem? Be specific.
First off the PC doesn't Find the iMac. The iMac finds the PC.
Second you REALLY Do Not want to use Migration Assistant. Just copy over your personal files from the PC to the Mac. Do that either over your LAN or to an external drive formatted FAT32 or exFAT.
Migration assistant, If it Works, has unintended consequences.
There is nothing on any PC, other then personal data files (Images, Music and office files), that work on a Mac. No programs or settings will be carried over.

After I edited the SQL in a dataset, I can't use the query builder in any datasets that I create.

Is there a way to reset BI Publisher Enterprise 11 so that I can use the query builder again instead of having to write out all of the SQL? I know that I can't use the query builder for the dataset that I edited the sql in but I would like to use the query builder for new datasets.
Thanks,

Result Source Query Builder Filter for Content Sources

I have several content sources that I want to add to a result source as a property filter. It works fine if I just have one but when I add multiple content sources it does not give me all the results. Is there a way to add more than one content source
filter to one result source.

Hi SpGurlz,
How did you set the filter with content source in the query builder for the result source?
I tested with more than one content source as filter in the query builder for the result source in my environment, and all the corresponding results were displayed fine.
The query text for the result source was set like this: {searchTerms} contentsource:file1 contentsource:file2.
Remember to add a space between the “{searchTerms}”, “contentsource:file1” and “contentsource:file2”.
You can provide the query text of your result source here and I will help to check the logic.
Best regards,
Victoria

Tables not in Query Builder table list bug?

In HTML DB version 1.6.0.00.87 we have tables defined in our schema in our workspace. When we create a view and click on the [Query Builder] link, no tables are in the drop down list for our schema. Why? The schema is there. I can go into the SQL Workshop and query the records our of the tables, but they are not listed in the [Query Builder].
I tried this same function but with my workspace at htmldb.oracle.com. The tables in my schema are listed there.
Is this a bug that was fixed in version 1.6.1.00.02?

There is one schema assigned to the workspace. That schema is listed in the pop-up window. Here are the steps I am doing:
1.) Click on SQL Workshop
2.) Click on Create Object
3.) Click on View
4.) The correct schema is listed in the Schema field. There is only one schema in the drop-down list for the Schema field.
5.) Click on [Query Builder]. A separate browser window appears with the correct schema. There is only one value in the drop-down list for the schema. "- Select Table -" is in the TABLE field.
6.) I click on the TABLE field to get a list of tables for the schema. Only "- Select Table -" is listed. No other tables are listed.
I can cancel the Create View and return to the main page of the SQL Workshop. I can click on Tables to see what table are available. I select the correct SCHEMA and see the list of tables.
I tried this in the same version of HTML DB (v 1.6.0.00.87) in a different database ie. a different HTML DB repository and received the same results, missing tables in the pop-up page
I do not know why the tables do not list in the [Query Builder] for the Create View.

Query builder, procedural builder - Oracle 8.17

I'm running Oracle 8.17 and I can't find query builder, procedural builder, report builder form builder and other builders. Where can I get these? I tried the universal installer and there are no options to install them.

Hi Fraser,
Thank you for responding.
I think I fixed that problem,actually there was a spelling
mistake in one of the parameter files.
But now I get another error message, says:
"ORA: 02068: following severe error from MSOLEDB
ORA: 28511: lost RPC connection to heterogenous
remote agent using
SID = (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=LOCAL_HOST)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=
(SERVICE_NAME=<SERVICE_NAME>)))
Do I have to configure the SQL Server network utilities?
I pinged both the servers ,they talk to each other.
But when I use tnsping ,the client machine (i.e.,the SQL Server
machine)talks to server(Oracle machine) but the server doesn't
talk to the client.
I am definitely not doing something right.

Tax query builder with "workflow status" property

Hi,
is it possible to create a tax query builder with "workflow status" property? For example: folder A only with documents "Relased", folder B only with document "In progress"?
In property meta data I saw that there is a property "cm_workflowState", I made it indexable, but it doesn't work....
thanks,
Paolo

Hi,
Thanks to share your post.
For the issue, I think it may due to the wrong handling of the encoding type “UTF-8”, please refer to the followed article, they may give you a hand:

2.1 EA1: Query Builder does not update View Results query

When using the Query Builder, if you click onto the View Results tab to see the current query results, then go back to the "Select Columns" or "Create Where Clause" tabs to change the query, the "View Results" tab still shows the results of the original query even if none of the tables or columns from the original query exist. Clicking the Run Report button or setting a refresh interval has no effect.
On a further note, the query builder still is not reentrant, in that you can't select (highlight a portion of or position the cursor within) a query and open the query builder for that query to graphically make modifications.

Sentinel,
The issue is known and is listed in the known issues in the release notes for the early adopter. We hope to have this addressed for production.
The re-entrant query builder is still on our list of things to do. We plan to rewrite the Query Builder and address a number of the requests related to this feature. I'm hoping to make it a priority for the next release.

IPhone Ad Hoc - One build for block of UDIDs or one build for each UDID?

Hello.
For ad hoc distribution, do I need to create a new unique build for each of the UDIDs from my potential testers? Or just one time for the entire set of UDIDs?
Please set me straight, I've been searching for this answer, but could not find anything.
Thank you so much.

You must add each UDID to your distribution provisioning profile in iTunes Connect. Once you have done that, you can use a single .mobileprovision file and a single binary for all provisioned users. You do not need to build a version for each user.
