Question

My Procedure: (It’s a scheme)

  delimiter //
  CREATE PROCEDURE get_random_data()
  BEGIN
  Declare Count_a INT;
      SELECT Floor(Count(`id_x`) * Rand()) INTO Count_a From `x_data`  Where `ok_w` = 1 And `active` = 2 And `time` >= Unix_timestamp();

   # Now We select Some Rows
   SELECT `id_x` From `x_data` Where `spec` = 1 Limit Count_a,3;

   # And if Count of this select is small than < 3

   IF(row_count() < 3) then
      SELECT `id_anonsu` From `x_data` Where `spec` = 0 Limit Count_a,2;
   END IF ;


  END//
  delimiter ;

// Target

How to get the results From BOTH queries?
// One from query before if statement

// Second from query in statement, if first query count is smaller than 3

Answer 1

Ok, I found the answer.

The original code:

   IF(row_count() < 3) then
       SELECT `id_anonsu` From `x_data` Where `spec` = 0 Limit Count_a,2;
   END IF ;

Was replaced for:

IF(FOUND_ROWS() < 3) THEN SELECT `id_anonsu` From `x_data` Where `spec` = 0 Limit Count_a,2;
END IF ;

Better Version:

Work Good with query (Who use LIMIT)
And we need know number of returned rows by (Query)in Store Procedure

Version with show count

    DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS test;
    Delimiter //
    CREATE PROCEDURE test(OUT w INT)
    BEGIN
    Declare Counter_a INT DEFAULT 0;


        Set @id_counter = 0;

        SELECT Floor(Count(`id_x`) * Rand()) INTO Counter_a From `x_data`  Where `ok_w` = 1 And `active` = 2 And `time` >= Unix_timestamp();

        SELECT @id_counter := @id_counter + 1, `id_x` From `x_data` Where `spec` = 1 Limit Counter_a,3;


        IF @id_counter < 3 THEN 
            Set Counter_a = Counter_a + 1;
            SELECT `id_x` From `x_data` Limit Counter_a,2;


        END IF;

        Set w = @id_counter;


    END //
    Delimiter ;

Output like this:

  mysql> Call test(@z); Select @z;
  +--------------------------------+-----------+
  | @id_counter := @id_counter + 1 |   id_x    |
  +--------------------------------+-----------+
  |                              1 |         7 |
  |                              2 |         8 |
  +--------------------------------+-----------+

  +-----------+
  |   id_x    |
  +-----------+
  |         8 |
  +-----------+
  1 row in set (0.01 sec)

  Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

Version with hidden count

    DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS test;
    Delimiter //
    CREATE PROCEDURE test(OUT w INT)
    BEGIN
    Declare Counter_a INT DEFAULT 0;


        Set @id_counter = 0;

        SELECT Floor(Count(`id_x`) * Rand()) INTO Counter_a From `x_data`  Where `ok_w` = 1 And `active` = 2 And `time` >= Unix_timestamp();

        SELECT `id_x` From `x_data` Where @id_counter := @id_counter + 1 And `spec` = 1 Limit Counter_a,3;


        IF @id_counter < 3 THEN 
            Set Counter_a = Counter_a + 1;
            SELECT `id_x` From `x_data` Limit Counter_a,2;


        END IF;

        Set w = @id_counter;


    END //
    Delimiter ;

Output like this:

  mysql> Call test(@z); Select @z;
  +-----------+
  |   id_x    |
  +-----------+
  |         7 |
  |         8 |
  +-----------+
  2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

  +-----------+
  |   id_x    |
  +-----------+
  |         8 |
  +-----------+
  1 row in set (0.01 sec)

  Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

  +------+
  | @z   |
  +------+
  |    2 |
  +------+
  1 row in set (0.00 sec)

@TIP

 @id_counter := @id_counter + 1

It’s Must be before all conditions in where.

For example:

[.....] Where @id_counter := @id_counter + 1 And `field_2` > 1 LIMIT 0, 5;

Will return always 1…

Correct Version

[.....] Where `field_2` > 1 And  [Other conditions] And @id_counter := @id_counter + 1  LIMIT 0, 5;
