Exercise 12: Creating an Invoice for a Customer (isodoc.cls) using SQL Data (Solution)
This is a solution to the SQL part of Exercise 12.You need the sample SQL data supplied in samples.sql. This requires two calls to datatooltk before the document can be built:
- The first call creates a file called order.dbtex
that contains the customer details, subtotal, total, discount and postage for the order
identified by the group order id 2:
datatooltk --output order.dbtex --sqldb samples --sqluser sampleuser --sqlpassword sample-passwd --sql "SELECT people.surname, people.forenames, people.title, people.address1, people.address2, people.town, people.county, people.postcode, countries.name AS countryname, ordergroups.discount, ordergroups.postage, SUM(books.price * orders.quantity) AS subtotal, (SUM(books.price*orders.quantity)+ordergroups.postage-ordergroups.discount) AS total FROM books, orders, ordergroups, people, countries WHERE orders.groupid = 2 AND ordergroups.id=orders.groupid AND orders.bookid = books.id AND people.id = ordergroups.customerid AND countries.code = people.country"
- The second call creates a file called orderlist/dbtex
that contains the details of each of the books in the order along
with the quantity ordered and the subtotal (quantity times price):
datatooltk --output orderlist.dbtex --sqldb samples --sqluser sampleuser --sqlpassword sample-passwd --sql "SELECT books.title AS booktitle, books.author, books.format, books.price, orders.quantity, books.price * orders.quantity AS subtotal FROM books, orders WHERE orders.groupid = 2 AND orders.bookid = books.id"
