Data Base

The document discusses using a database for a course project. It describes a three-tier architecture with an application, services, and separate database server. It provides code examples for connecting to the database from the command line using SQL queries and from Java using JDBC. The database contains tables with related data that can be joined together in queries.

Database

CS314 Software
Engineering

The solution in this course uses a three-tier architecture, with the application
running on a client, services on a webserver, and a separate database server.

The server environment varies so your code will need to adapt to three different
run-time scenarios: black-bottle, csu-eid, and csu-guest/external.

Command Line
Interface

Command line interface queries via mysql such as these will help you explore
the information available in the database without any coding.

# connect to the database from a shell


mysql -D cs314 -h faure --user=cs314-db --password=eiK5liet1uej
# once in SQL…
# see a list of tables
show tables;
# see the columns in a table (world replaces airports)
show columns from world;
show columns from region;
show columns from country;
show columns from continent;
# notice the column similarities between tables

The SELECT statement allows us to combine (join) information from multiple


tables into a single view for reporting purposes.

A query like this combines information from multiple tables and matches
information in multiples columns. London is not just a city in England.
SET @phrase="%london%";
# search query, more columns for plan query
SELECT world.name, world.municipality, region.name, country.name,
continent.name
FROM continents
INNER JOIN country ON continent.id = country.continent
INNER JOIN region ON country.id = region.iso_country
INNER JOIN world ON region.id = world.iso_region
WHERE (country.name LIKE @phrase
OR region.name LIKE @phrase
OR world.name LIKE @phrase
OR world.municipality LIKE @phrase)
LIMIT 100;

A query like this can help you filter the data to just the United States to provide
more meaningful results.
SET @country="United States";
SET @phrase="%london%";
# search query, more columns for plan query
SELECT world_airports.name, world_airports.municipality, region.name,
country.name, continents.name
FROM continents
INNER JOIN country ON continents.id = country.continent
INNER JOIN region ON country.id = region.iso_country
INNER JOIN world_airports ON region.id = world_airports.iso_region
WHERE (country.name LIKE @phrase
OR region.name LIKE @phrase
OR world_airports.name LIKE @phrase
OR world_airports.municipality LIKE @phrase)
AND country.name IN (@country)
LIMIT 100;

Java Interface
with SQL

The course Guide contains some simple, standalone Java code to query the
database and print the distinct values from a single column.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.Statement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;

public class sqlGuide {

// connection information when using port forwarding from local host


private final static String DB_URL = "jdbc:mariadb://127.0.0.1:56247/cs314";

// shared user with read-only access


private final static String DB_USER = "cs314-db";
private final static String DB_PASSWORD = "eiK5liet1uej";

// SQL SELECT query statement


private final static String COLUMN = "id";
private final static String QUERY =
"SELECT DISTINCT "+ COLUMN +" FROM world ORDER BY "+ COLUMN +" ASC;";

The course Guide contains some simple, standalone Java code to query the
database and print the distinct values from a single column.

public static void main(String[] args) {


try (
// connect to the database and query
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
Statement query = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet results = query.executeQuery(QUERY)
) {
// iterate through query results and print out the column values
int i = 0;
while (results.next()) {
System.out.printf("%6d %s\n", ++i, results.getString(COLUMN));
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}

Running this sample code requires a few steps.

• Create a project in IntelliJ using Java version 8.


• Copy the source into a class file.
• Add the mariadb library to your project (see the Database guide)
• Set up port forwarding to faure (see the Port Forwarding guide)
