I want to run this query:
SELECT DISTINCT ON (address_id) purchases.address_id, purchases.*
FROM purchases
WHERE purchases.product_id = 1
ORDER BY purchases.purchased_at DESC
But I get this error:
PG::Error: ERROR: SELECT DISTINCT ON expressions must match initial ORDER BY expressions
Adding address_id
as first ORDER BY
expression silences the error, but I really don’t want to add sorting over address_id
. Is it possible to do without ordering by address_id
?
