Hai semuanya, Setelah kita membahas tentang Update statement perintah selanjutnya yang kita perlu perlajari untuk menghapus data pada suatu tabel yaitu DELETE statement. Terkiat perintah delete yang temen-temen telah pelajari sebelumnya hanya sekilas saja sebetulnya secara mendetail perintah delete seperti berikut:

[ WITH [ RECURSIVE ] with_query [, ...] ]
DELETE FROM [ ONLY ] table_name [ * ] [ [ AS ] alias ]
    [ USING from_item [, ...] ]
    [ WHERE condition | WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name ]
    [ RETURNING * | output_expression [ [ AS ] output_name ] [, ...] ]

Jika temen-temen perhatikan ada beberapa feature dan yang kita bisa gunakan seperti:

  1. Delete with USING from_item clause
  2. Delete using RETURNING
  3. Delete using WITH queries

Ok tanpa berlama-lama jadi lansung aja bahas materi yang pertama:

Delete with USING from_item clause

There are two ways to delete rows in a table using information contained in other tables in the database: using sub-selects, or specifying additional tables in the USING clause. Which technique is more appropriate depends on the specific circumstances.

A table expression allowing columns from other tables to appear in the WHERE condition. This uses the same syntax as the FROM clause of a SELECT statement; for example, an alias for the table name can be specified. Do not repeat the target table as a from_item unless you wish to set up a self-join (in which case it must appear with an alias in the from_item). The syntax is:

DELETE FROM table_name [ [ AS ] alias ]
    [ USING from_item [, ...] ]
    [ WHERE condition ]

Contoh implementasinya, misalnya saya mau menghapus data karyawan yang pernah bekerja sebagai ST_CLERK maka querynya seperti berikut:

Jika dijalankan hasilnya seperti berikut:

hr=# select employee_id, start_date, department_id, job_id
hr-# from job_history
hr-# where job_id = 'ST_CLERK';
 employee_id |     start_date      | department_id |  job_id
-------------+---------------------+---------------+----------
         114 | 1998-03-24 00:00:00 |            50 | ST_CLERK
         122 | 1999-01-01 00:00:00 |            50 | ST_CLERK
(2 rows)

hr=# delete
hr-# from employees emp
hr-#     using job_history old
hr-# where old.job_id = 'ST_CLERK'
hr-#   and emp.employee_id = old.employee_id;
DELETE 2

hr=# select employee_id, first_name
hr-# from employees
hr-# where employee_id in (114, 122);
 employee_id | first_name
-------------+------------
(0 rows)

Pada query tersebut akan sama jika kita menggunakan sub-query seperti berikut:

Delete using RETURNING

If the DELETE command contains a RETURNING clause, the result will be similar to that of a SELECT statement containing the columns and values defined in the RETURNING list, computed over the row(s) deleted by the command. The syntax is:

DELETE FROM table_name [ [ AS ] alias ]
    [ WHERE condition ]
    [ RETURNING * | output_expression [ [ AS ] output_name ] [, ...] ]

Sebagai contoh, saya ingin menghapus data pada tabel countries untuk country_id sama dengan ZM dan ZW kemudian tampilan data selengkapnya seperti berikut:

Jika dijalankan hasilnya seperti berikut:

hr=# DELETE FROM countries
hr-# WHERE country_id in ('ZM', 'ZW')
hr-# RETURNING *;
 country_id | country_name | region_id
------------+--------------+-----------
 ZM         | Zambia       |         4
 ZW         | Zimbabwe     |         4
(2 rows)

DELETE 2

Delete using WITH queries

Seperti halnya pada Insert, Update pada Delete statement juga kita bisa menggunakan WITH Query yang berfungsi memecah query yang akan di gunakan pada perintah tersebut. The syntax is:

[ WITH [ RECURSIVE ] with_query [, ...] ]
DELETE FROM [ ONLY ] table_name [ * ] [ [ AS ] alias ]
    [ WHERE condition | WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name ]

Contoh implementasinya, saya akan menghapus data karyawan yang sudah mulai kerja dari 1995-01-01 dari tabel job_history maka querynya seperti berikut:

Jika dilankan maka hasilnya seperti berikut:

hr=# select distinct employee_id
hr-#     from job_history
hr-#     where start_date > '1995-01-01';
 employee_id
-------------
         176
         114
         201
         122
(4 rows)

hr=# WITH history_emp_from_dep as (
hr(#     select distinct employee_id
hr(#     from job_history
hr(#     where start_date > '1995-01-01'
hr(# )
hr-# DELETE
hr-# FROM employees emp
hr-#     USING history_emp_from_dep history
hr-# where emp.employee_id = history.employee_id
hr-# RETURNING *;
 employee_id | first_name | last_name |  email   |    phone_number    | job_id |  salary  | commission_pct | manager_id | department_id | employee_id
-------------+------------+-----------+----------+--------------------+--------+----------+----------------+------------+---------------+-------------
         176 | Jonathon   | Taylor    | JTAYLOR  | 011.44.1644.429265 | SA_REP |  8600.00 |           0.20 |        149 |            80 |         176
         201 | Michael    | Hartstein | MHARTSTE | 515.123.5555       | MK_MAN | 13000.00 |                |        100 |            20 |         201
(2 rows)
