测试设置
使用一些示例行(应在问题中提供):
CREATE TABLE test (
test_id serial PRIMARY KEY
, date1 date NOT NULL
, date2 date NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO test(date1, date2)
VALUES
('2012-03-20', '2012-01-05') -- 2012-02 lies in between
, ('2012-01-20', '2012-03-05') -- 2012-02 (reversed)
, ('2012-05-06', '2012-05-05') -- nothing
, ('2012-05-01', '2012-06-30') -- still nothing
, ('2012-08-20', '2012-11-05') -- 2012-09 - 2012-10
, ('2012-11-20', '2013-03-05') -- 2012-12 - 2013-02
;
Postgres 9.3或更新版本
使用LATERAL
连接:
SELECT to_char(mon, 'YYYY') AS year
, to_char(mon, 'MM') AS month
, count(*) AS ct
FROM (
SELECT date_trunc('mon', least(date1, date2)::timestamp) + interval '1 mon' AS d1
, date_trunc('mon', greatest(date1, date2)::timestamp) - interval '1 mon' AS d2
FROM test
) sub1
, generate_series(d1, d2, interval '1 month') mon -- implicit CROSS JOIN LATERAL
WHERE d2 >= d1 -- exclude ranges without gap right away
GROUP BY mon
ORDER BY mon;
Postgres 9.2 或更高版本
没有LATERAL
,还没有。改用子查询:
SELECT to_char(mon, 'YYYY') AS year
, to_char(mon, 'MM') AS month
, count(*) AS ct
FROM (
SELECT generate_series(d1, d2, interval '1 month') AS mon
FROM (
SELECT date_trunc('mon', least(date1, date2)::timestamp) + interval '1 mon' AS d1
, date_trunc('mon', greatest(date1, date2)::timestamp) - interval '1 mon' AS d2
FROM test
) sub1
WHERE d2 >= d1 -- exclude ranges without gap right away
) sub2
GROUP BY mon
ORDER BY mon;
结果
year | month | ct
------+-------+----
2012 | 2 | 2
2012 | 9 | 1
2012 | 10 | 1
2012 | 12 | 1
2013 | 1 | 1
2013 | 2 | 1

解释
您正在寻找两个日期之间的完整日历月。
这些查询以升序或降序处理任何日期或时间戳,并且应该表现良好。
该WHERE
子句是可选的,因为generate_series()
如果 start > end 则不返回任何行。但是先验地排除空范围应该更快一些。
演员 totimestamp
使它更清洁和更快。理由:
