Doctrine Query with subquery












0














I'm wondering if this is the right way to have a subquery in Doctrine. I have two entities, one called User and one called Log. There's a mapping from Log to User but not the other way around (ManyToOne).



I need a list of all users, which had log entries within a certain period. This is my current solution:



// UserRepository.php

/**
* @return User
*/
public function findLogUsersByCategory(int $category, DateTime $start, DateTime $end): array
{
return $this->createQueryBuilder('e')
->where('e.id IN (:users)')
->setParameter('users', $this->_em->createQueryBuilder()
->select('u.id')
->from(Log::class, 'l')
->join('l.user', 'u')
->where('l.category = :category')
->setParameter('category', $category)
->andWhere('l.created BETWEEN :start AND :end')
->setParameter('start', $start)
->setParameter('end', $end)
->orderBy('l.category', 'ASC')
->addOrderBy('l.id', 'ASC')
->groupBy('u.id')
->getQuery()->getResult()
)
->getQuery()
->getResult();
}


The query works like this, however I don't like, that it will execute 2 queries (first the inner, write result to memory in PHP and use it as parameter for the outer query). I've tried to use ->getDQL() instead of the ->getQuery()->getResult() for the inner query, but then I don't get any results (I'm guessing the parameters for the inner query aren't processed when calling getDQL()).



So the question would be, how to avoid having PHP temporary store the result of the inner query and instead let the DB server work it's magic?
