Welcome to the World Cup Database project!
Follow the instructions and get all the user stories below to pass to finish the project.
You start with several files, one of them is games.csv
. It contains a comma-separated list of all games of the final three rounds of the World Cup tournament since 2014; the titles are at the top. It includes the year of each game, the round of the game, the winner, their opponent, and the number of goals each team scored. You need to do three things for this project:
Part 1: Create the database
Log into the psql interactive terminal with psql --username=freecodecamp --dbname=postgres
and create your database structure according to the user stories below.
Don't forget to connect to the database after you create it.
Part 2: Insert the data
Complete the insert_data.sh
script to correctly insert all the data from games.csv
into the database. The file is started for you. Do not modify any of the code you start with. Using the PSQL
variable defined, you can make database queries like this: $($PSQL "<query_here>")
. The tests have a 20 second limit, so try to make your script efficient. The less you have to query the database, the faster it will be. You can empty the rows in the tables of your database with TRUNCATE TABLE games, teams;
Part 3: Query the database
Complete the empty echo
commands in the queries.sh
file to produce output that matches the expected_output.txt
file. The file has some starter code, and the first query is completed for you. Use the PSQL
variable defined to complete rest of the queries. Note that you need to have your database filled with the correct data from the script to get the correct results from your queries. Hint: Test your queries in the psql prompt first and then add them to the script file.
Notes:
If you leave your virtual machine, your database may not be saved. You can make a dump of it by entering pg_dump -cC --inserts -U freecodecamp worldcup > worldcup.sql
in a bash terminal (not the psql one). It will save the commands to rebuild your database in worldcup.sql
. The file will be located where the command was entered. If it's anything inside the project
folder, the file will be saved in the VM. You can rebuild the database by entering psql -U postgres < worldcup.sql
in a terminal where the .sql
file is.
If you are saving your progress on freeCodeCamp.org, after getting all the tests to pass, follow the instructions above to save a dump of your database. Save the worldcup.sql
file, as well as the final version of your insert_data.sh
and queries.sh
files, in a public repository and submit the URL to it on freeCodeCamp.org.
Complete the tasks below
- You should create a database named
worldcup
- You should connect to your worldcup database and then create
teams
andgames
tables - Your
teams
table should have ateam_id
column that is a type ofSERIAL
and is the primary key, and aname
column that has to beUNIQUE
- Your
games
table should have agame_id
column that is a type ofSERIAL
and is the primary key, ayear
column of typeINT
, and around
column of typeVARCHAR
- Your
games
table should havewinner_id
andopponent_id
foreign key columns that each referenceteam_id
from theteams
table - Your
games
table should havewinner_goals
andopponent_goals
columns that are typeINT
- All of your columns should have the
NOT NULL
constraint - Your two script (
.sh
) files should have executable permissions. Other tests involving these two files will fail until permissions are correct. When these permissions are enabled, the tests will take significantly longer to run - When you run your
insert_data.sh
script, it should add each unique team to theteams
table. There should be 24 rows - When you run your
insert_data.sh
script, it should insert a row for each line in thegames.csv
file (other than the top line of the file). There should be 32 rows. Each row should have every column filled in with the appropriate info. Make sure to add the correct ID's from the teams table (you cannot hard-code the values) - You should correctly complete the queries in the
queries.sh
file. Fill in each emptyecho
command to get the output of what is suggested with the command above it. Only use a single line like the first query. The output should match what is in theexpected_output.txt
file
