How to get the count of current month Sunday's in psql?

Ho开发者_如何学编程w to get total number of Sunday's for given date in postgresql

You need EXTRACT:

SELECT 
    EXTRACT(DOW FROM DATE '2011-02-16') = 0; -- 0 is Sunday

This can result in true or false, it's a sunday or it's not. I have no idea what you mean by "total number" because that will always be 0 (the date is not a sunday) or 1 (the given data is a sunday).

Edit: Something like this?

SELECT 
    COUNT(*)
FROM
    generate_series(timestamp '2011-01-01', '2011-03-01', '1 day') AS g(mydate)
WHERE
    EXTRACT(DOW FROM mydate) = 0;

The total number of Sundays for a given date can only be either 0 or 1.

But if you want the number of Sundays within a given date range, then your best bet is a calendar table. To find how many Sundays are in February this year, I'd just

select count(*) 
from calendar
where cal_date between '2011-02-01' and '2011-02-28' and
      day_of_week = 'Sun';

or

select count(*)
from calendar
where year_of_date = 2011 and
      month_of_year = 2 and 
      day_of_week = 'Sun';

Here's a basic calendar table that you can start with. I also included a PostgreSQL function to populate the calendar table. I haven't tested this in 8.3, but I'm pretty sure I'm not using any features that 8.3 doesn't support.

Note that the "dow" parts assume your days are in English. But you can easily edit those parts to match any language. (I think. But I could be wrong about "easily".)

-- Table: calendar

-- DROP TABLE calendar;

CREATE TABLE calendar
(
  cal_date date NOT NULL,
  year_of_date integer NOT NULL,
  month_of_year integer NOT NULL,
  day_of_month integer NOT NULL,
  day_of_week character(3) NOT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT calendar_pkey PRIMARY KEY (cal_date),
  CONSTRAINT calendar_check CHECK (year_of_date::double precision = date_part('year'::text, cal_date)),
  CONSTRAINT calendar_check1 CHECK (month_of_year::double precision = date_part('month'::text, cal_date)),
  CONSTRAINT calendar_check2 CHECK (day_of_month::double precision = date_part('day'::text, cal_date)),
  CONSTRAINT calendar_check3 CHECK (day_of_week::text = 
CASE
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 0::double precision THEN 'Sun'::text
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 1::double precision THEN 'Mon'::text
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 2::double precision THEN 'Tue'::text
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 3::double precision THEN 'Wed'::text
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 4::double precision THEN 'Thu'::text
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 5::double precision THEN 'Fri'::text
    WHEN date_part('dow'::text, cal_date) = 6::double precision THEN 'Sat'::text
    ELSE NULL::text
END)
)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE calendar OWNER TO postgres;

-- Index: calendar_day_of_month

-- DROP INDEX calendar_day_of_month;

CREATE INDEX calendar_day_of_month
  ON calendar
  USING btree
  (day_of_month);

-- Index: calendar_day_of_week

-- DROP INDEX calendar_day_of_week;

CREATE INDEX calendar_day_of_week
  ON calendar
  USING btree
  (day_of_week);

-- Index: calendar_month_of_year

-- DROP INDEX calendar_month_of_year;

CREATE INDEX calendar_month_of_year
  ON calendar
  USING btree

-- Index: calendar_year_of_date

-- DROP INDEX calendar_year_of_date;

CREATE INDEX calendar_year_of_date
  ON calendar
  USING btree
  (year_of_date);

And a rudimentary function to populate the table. I haven't tested this in 8.3 either.

-- Function: insert_range_into_calendar(date, date)

-- DROP FUNCTION insert_range_into_calendar(date, date);

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION insert_range_into_calendar(from_date date, to_date date)
  RETURNS void AS
$BODY$

DECLARE
    this_date date := from_date;
BEGIN

    while (this_date <= to_date) LOOP
        INSERT INTO calendar (cal_date, year_of_date, month_of_year, day_of_month, day_of_week)
        VALUES (this_date, extract(year from this_date), extract(month from this_date), extract(day from this_date),
        case when extract(dow from this_date) = 0 then 'Sun'
             when extract(dow from this_date) = 1 then 'Mon'
             when extract(dow from this_date) = 2 then 'Tue'
             when extract(dow from this_date) = 3 then 'Wed'
             when extract(dow from this_date) = 4 then 'Thu'
             when extract(dow from this_date) = 5 then 'Fri'
             when extract(dow from this_date) = 6 then 'Sat'
        end);
        this_date = this_date + interval '1 day';
    end loop;       

END;
