Here is some basic SQL operations you'll learn in the beginning of the book:
Creating basic tables:
CREATE TABLE person ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, first_name TEXT, last_name TEXT, age INTEGER ); CREATE TABLE pet ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT, breed TEXT, age INTEGER, dead INTEGER );Creating a relation table between person and pet:
CREATE TABLE person_pet ( person_id INTEGER, pet_id INTEGER );Inserting data:
INSERT INTO person (id, first_name, last_name, age) VALUES (0, 'bernardo', 'fire', 17); INSERT INTO pet (id, name, breed, age, dead) VALUES (0, 'zeus', 'dog', 6, 0);Inserting referential data:
INSERT INTO person_pet (person_id, pet_id) VALUES (0, 0);Selecting Data:
SELECT * FROM person; SELECT name, breed FROM pet; SELECT name FROM pet WHERE breed = "unicorn"; SELECT * FROM pet WHERE dead = 0;Select Across Many Table:
SELECT pet.id, pet.name, pet.age, pet.dead FROM pet, person_pet, person WHERE pet.id = person_pet.pet_id AND person_pet.person_id = person.id AND person.first_name = "bernardo";Deleting Data:
DELETE FROM pet WHERE first_name = 'bernardo';Droping table:
DROP TABLE person;Deleting using other tables:
DELETE FROM pet WHERE id IN ( SELECT pet.id FROM pet, person_pet, person WHERE pet.id = person_pet.pet_id AND person_pet.person_id = person.id AND person.first_name = "bernardo" );Removing the relation table since the pet doesn't longer exist.
DELETE FROM person_pet WHERE pet.id NOT IN ( SELECT id FROM pet );
