How do I add multiple "NOT LIKE '%?%' in the WHERE clause of sqlite3?
I have a sqlite3 query like:
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%a%';
This would select all of the words where 'a' does not occur in the word. This I can get to work perfectly. The problem is if I want to further restrict the results to not include 'b' anywhere in the word. I am picturing something like this.
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT IN ('%a%', '%b%', '%z%');
which this obviously does not work, but this is the idea. Just adding an AND
clause is what I'm trying to avoid:
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%a%' AND NOT LIKE '%b%';
If this is the only option then I will have to work with that, but I was hoping for something else.
Solution 1:
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%a%'
AND word NOT LIKE '%b%'
AND word NOT LIKE '%c%';
Solution 2:
If you use Sqlite's REGEXP support ( see the answer at Problem with regexp python and sqlite for how to do that ) , then you can do it easily in one clause:
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT REGEXP '[abc]';
Solution 3:
You missed the second statement: 1) NOT LIKE A, AND 2) NOT LIKE B
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%a%' AND word NOT LIKE '%b%'
Solution 4:
this is a select command
FROM
user
WHERE
application_key = 'dsfdsfdjsfdsf'
AND email NOT LIKE '%applozic.com'
AND email NOT LIKE '%gmail.com'
AND email NOT LIKE '%kommunicate.io';
this update command
UPDATE user
SET email = null
WHERE application_key='dsfdsfdjsfdsf' and email not like '%applozic.com'
and email not like '%gmail.com' and email not like '%kommunicate.io';
Solution 5:
I'm not sure why you're avoiding the AND clause. It is the simplest solution.
Otherwise, you would need to do an INTERSECT of multiple queries:
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%a%'
INTERSECT
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%b%'
INTERSECT
SELECT word FROM table WHERE word NOT LIKE '%c%';
Alternatively, you can use a regular expression if your version of SQL supports it.
