How to do a RIGHT JOIN and SELECT with Typeorm
Performing RIGHT JOIN and SELECT operations in TypeORM is a common requirement when working with data. TypeORM provides several approaches to implement these operations, including the QueryBuilder and Repository API. I'll illustrate both approaches with examples.Using QueryBuilder for RIGHT JOIN and SELECTTypeORM's QueryBuilder simplifies and makes managing complex SQL queries straightforward. Here is an example using QueryBuilder to implement RIGHT JOIN and SELECT:Assume there are two tables in the database: the table and the table, where each user can have multiple photos. Now, we want to query all users along with details of at least one photo, with corresponding fields being null if the user has no photos.In this example, we use to connect the and tables. However, you can modify it to to meet specific requirements, such as retrieving only users with photos.Using Repository API for RIGHT JOIN and SELECTAdditionally, using the Repository API simplifies handling common queries, but for complex queries (e.g., RIGHT JOIN), QueryBuilder is more suitable. However, I can demonstrate how to perform basic SELECT operations using the Repository API:This method returns all records from the table. If you need to perform more complex queries (e.g., those involving RIGHT JOIN), you may still need to revert to using QueryBuilder.SummaryIn TypeORM, for complex join queries such as RIGHT JOIN, it is recommended to use QueryBuilder as it provides a more flexible and powerful way to construct SQL queries. For simple SELECT queries, the Repository API offers a concise and efficient approach.I hope these examples help you understand how to perform RIGHT JOIN and SELECT operations in TypeORM.
