COUNT(*) from multiple tables in MySQL
Question
How do I go about selecting COUNT(*)s from multiple tables in MySQL?
Such as:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS table1Count FROM table1 WHERE someCondition
JOIN??
SELECT COUNT(*) AS table2Count FROM table2 WHERE someCondition
CROSS JOIN? subqueries?
SELECT COUNT(*) AS table3Count FROM table3 WHERE someCondition
Edit:
The goal is to return this:
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| table1Count | table2Count | table3Count |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 14 | 27 | 0 |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
Answer 1
You can do it by using subqueries, one subquery for each tableCount :
SELECT
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table1 WHERE someCondition) as table1Count,
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table2 WHERE someCondition) as table2Count,
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table3 WHERE someCondition) as table3Count
Answer 2
You can do this with subqueries, e.g.:
select (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table1 WHERE someCondition) as table1Count,
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table2 WHERE someCondition) as table2Count
Answer 3
You can use UNION
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table1 WHERE someCondition
UNION
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table2 WHERE someCondition
UNION
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table3 WHERE someCondition
