MySQL-如何前垫邮政编码与“0”?

在我的 MySQLInnoDB 数据库中,有一些脏的邮政编码数据需要清理。

干净的邮政编码数据是当我有一个邮政编码的全部5位数字(例如“90210”)。

但出于某种原因,我注意到在我的数据库中,对于以“0”开头的邮政编码,0被删除了。

因此,“ 霍尔茨维尔”与邮政编码“ 00544”是存储在我的数据库作为“ 544

还有

戴德姆”与邮政编码“ 02026”是存储在我的数据库作为“ 2026”。

我可以运行什么 SQL 前垫“0”到任何邮政编码,不是5位数字的长度?意思是,如果邮政编码是3位数字的长度,前垫“00”。如果邮政编码是4位数字的长度,前垫只有“0”。

更新 :

我只是将邮政编码改为数据类型 VARCHAR (5)

Store your zipcodes as CHAR(5) instead of a numeric type, or have your application pad it with zeroes when you load it from the DB. A way to do it with PHP using sprintf():

echo sprintf("%05d", 205); // prints 00205
echo sprintf("%05d", 1492); // prints 01492

Or you could have MySQL pad it for you with LPAD():

SELECT LPAD(zip, 5, '0') as zipcode FROM table;

Here's a way to update and pad all rows:

ALTER TABLE `table` CHANGE `zip` `zip` CHAR(5); #changes type
UPDATE table SET `zip`=LPAD(`zip`, 5, '0'); #pads everything

Ok, so you've switched the column from Number to VARCHAR(5). Now you need to update the zipcode field to be left-padded. The SQL to do that would be:

UPDATE MyTable
SET ZipCode = LPAD( ZipCode, 5, '0' );

This will pad all values in the ZipCode column to 5 characters, adding '0's on the left.

Of course, now that you've got all of your old data fixed, you need to make sure that your any new data is also zero-padded. There are several schools of thought on the correct way to do that:

  • Handle it in the application's business logic. Advantages: database-independent solution, doesn't involve learning more about the database. Disadvantages: needs to be handled everywhere that writes to the database, in all applications.

  • Handle it with a stored procedure. Advantages: Stored procedures enforce business rules for all clients. Disadvantages: Stored procedures are more complicated than simple INSERT/UPDATE statements, and not as portable across databases. A bare INSERT/UPDATE can still insert non-zero-padded data.

  • Handle it with a trigger. Advantages: Will work for Stored Procedures and bare INSERT/UPDATE statements. Disadvantages: Least portable solution. Slowest solution. Triggers can be hard to get right.

In this case, I would handle it at the application level (if at all), and not the database level. After all, not all countries use a 5-digit Zipcode (not even the US -- our zipcodes are actually Zip+4+2: nnnnn-nnnn-nn) and some allow letters as well as digits. Better NOT to try and force a data format and to accept the occasional data error, than to prevent someone from entering the correct value, even though it's format isn't quite what you expected.

You need to decide the length of the zip code (which I believe should be 5 characters long). Then you need to tell MySQL to zero-fill the numbers.

Let's suppose your table is called mytable and the field in question is zipcode, type smallint. You need to issue the following query:

ALTER TABLE mytable CHANGE `zipcode` `zipcode`
MEDIUMINT( 5 ) UNSIGNED ZEROFILL NOT NULL;

The advantage of this method is that it leaves your data intact, there's no need to use triggers during data insertion / updates, there's no need to use functions when you SELECT the data and that you can always remove the extra zeros or increase the field length should you change your mind.

It would still make sense to create your zip code field as a zerofilled unsigned integer field.

CREATE TABLE xxx ( zipcode INT(5) ZEROFILL UNSIGNED, ... )

That way mysql takes care of the padding for you.

CHAR(5)

or

MEDIUMINT (5) UNSIGNED ZEROFILL

The first takes 5 bytes per zip code.

The second takes only 3 bytes per zip code. The ZEROFILL option is necessary for zip codes with leading zeros.

LPAD works with VARCHAR2 as it does not put spaces for left over bytes. LPAD changes leftover/null bytes to zeros on LHS SO datatype should be VARCHAR2

you should use UNSIGNED ZEROFILL in your table structure.

I know this is well after the OP. One way you can go with that keeps the table storing the zipcode data as an unsigned INT but displayed with zeros is as follows.

select LPAD(cast(zipcode_int as char), 5, '0') as zipcode from table;

While this preserves the original data as INT and can save some space in storage you will be having the server perform the INT to CHAR conversion for you. This can be thrown into a view and the person who needs this data can be directed there vs the table itself.
