Ambil nilai terakhir yang diketahui untuk setiap kolom dari satu baris

Di sini saya membuat fungsi agregasi yang mengumpulkan kolom menjadi array. Maka tinggal menghapus NULL dan memilih elemen terakhir dari setiap larik.

Contoh Data

CREATE TABLE T (
    date_time timestamp,
    a text,
    b text,
    c text
);

INSERT INTO T VALUES ('2013-10-15 11:45:00', NULL, 'timtim', 'fred'),
('2013-10-15 13:00:00', 'tune', 'reco', NULL  ),
('2013-10-16 12:00:00', 'abc', NULL, NULL     ),
('2013-10-16 13:00:00', NULL, 'died', NULL    );

Solusi

CREATE AGGREGATE array_accum (anyelement)
(
    sfunc = array_append,
    stype = anyarray,
    initcond = '{}'
);

WITH latest_nonull AS (
    SELECT MAX(date_time) As MaxDateTime, 
           array_remove(array_accum(a), NULL) AS A, 
           array_remove(array_accum(b), NULL) AS B, 
           array_remove(array_accum(c), NULL) AS C
    FROM T
    ORDER BY date_time
)
SELECT MaxDateTime, A[array_upper(A, 1)], B[array_upper(B,1)], C[array_upper(C,1)]
FROM latest_nonull;

Hasil

     maxdatetime     |  a  |  b   |  c
---------------------+-----+------+------
 2013-10-16 13:00:00 | abc | died | fred
