轉換重複查找查詢所有下降，但帶有最新的記錄

Question

我有一個重複的發現者查詢...

SELECT 
    Author, Name, TrackNum, title_id, COUNT(*) 
FROM 
    db.table 
GROUP BY 
    Author, Name, TrackNum, title_id 
HAVING 
    COUNT(*) > 1 

它返回那些重複的記錄，以及有多少計數。

我想擴大這個範圍，這樣它就會刪除每個副本的最新版本。我想我們可以使用id或datetime字段，我可以在表中找到哪些記錄。還是有另一種方式？

編輯：我走了一半......

SELECT 
    * 
FROM 
    db.table 
GROUP BY 
    Author, Name, TrackNum, title_id 
HAVING 
    COUNT(*) > 1 
ORDER BY 
    Name, TrackNum 

以上似乎表明每個副本的一個副本。當我在工作臺中刪除它們時，我只剩下剩餘的最新唯一記錄。我只想進一步自動化這一步。此外，這不包括兩個以上相同的記錄。

# 
# Step 01) Create Temp Key Tables 
# 
CREATE TABLE KeysToKeep 
(
    id INT NOT NULL, 
    PRIMARY KEY (id) 
); 
CREATE TABLE KeysToDrop LIKE KeysToKeep; 
# 
# Step 02) Collect All id values you want to Keep 
# 
INSERT INTO KeysToKeep 
    SELECT id FROM 
    (SELECT MAX(id) id,Author, Name, TrackNum, title_id 
    FROM db.table GROUP BY Author, Name, TrackNum, title_id) A 
; 
# 
# Step 03) Collect All id values you want to Drop 
# 
INSERT INTO KeysToDrop 
SELECT A.id FROM db.table A LEFT JOIN KeysToKeep USING (id) WHERE B.id IS NULL; 
# 
# Step 04) Do the Mass Delete 
# 
DELETE A.* FROM db.table A INNER JOIN KeysToDrop B USING (id); 
# 
# Step 05) Remove Temp Key Tables 
# 
DROP TABLE KeysToKeep; 
DROP TABLE KeysToDrop;

ALTER TABLE db.table RENAME db.table_old; 
ALTER TABLE db.table_new RENAME db.table; 
#

DROP TABLE KeysToKeep;

# Step 06) Drop the Old Table If the Content of db.table is Correct

DROP TABLE db.table_old; 

EPILOGUE

在前兩種情況下s，請檢查KeysToKeep和/或KeysToDrop以確保它們是保留或丟棄的關鍵。在最後一種情況下，如果您確定，請刪除表格db.table_old。如果你不確定，你可以這樣回滾：

ALTER TABLE db.table RENAME db.table_new; 
ALTER TABLE db.table_old RENAME db.table;
