从SQL Server 2008中的XML字段中选择值

仅查看我的XML字段，我的行将如下所示：

<person><firstName>Jon</firstName><lastName>Johnson</lastName></person>
<person><firstName>Kathy</firstName><lastName>Carter</lastName></person>
<person><firstName>Bob</firstName><lastName>Burns</lastName></person>

请注意，这是我表中的三行。

我想以表格形式返回SQL结果

Jon  | Johnson
Kathy| Carter
Bob  | Burns

什么查询可以完成此任务？

假设XML字段名为“ xmlField” ...

SELECT 
[xmlField].value('(/person//firstName/node())[1]', 'nvarchar(max)') as FirstName,
[xmlField].value('(/person//lastName/node())[1]', 'nvarchar(max)') as LastName
FROM [myTable]

考虑到XML数据来自表'table'并存储在'field'列中：使用XML方法，使用提取值，使用提取xml.value()项目节点xml.nodes()，使用CROSS APPLY联接：

SELECT 
    p.value('(./firstName)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') AS firstName,
    p.value('(./lastName)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') AS lastName
FROM table 
    CROSS APPLY field.nodes('/person') t(p)

如果每个字段仅包含一个元素“人” nodes()，cross apply则可以放弃。如果XML是变量，则选择FROM @variable.nodes(...)，则不需要cross apply。

这篇文章对解决我的XML格式略有不同的问题很有帮助...我的XML包含以下示例所示的键列表，并且我将XML存储在名为DeleteBatch的表的SourceKeys列中：

<k>1</k>
<k>2</k>
<k>3</k>

创建表并用一些数据填充它：

CREATE TABLE dbo.DeleteBatch (
    ExecutionKey INT PRIMARY KEY,
    SourceKeys XML)

INSERT INTO dbo.DeleteBatch ( ExecutionKey, SourceKeys )
SELECT 1, 
    (CAST('<k>1</k><k>2</k><k>3</k>' AS XML))

INSERT INTO dbo.DeleteBatch ( ExecutionKey, SourceKeys )
SELECT 2, 
    (CAST('<k>100</k><k>101</k>' AS XML))

这是从XML中选择键的SQL：

SELECT ExecutionKey, p.value('.', 'int') AS [Key]
FROM dbo.DeleteBatch
    CROSS APPLY SourceKeys.nodes('/k') t(p)

这是查询结果...

ExecutionKey键
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 100
2 101

这可能会回答您的问题：

select cast(xmlField as xml) xmlField into tmp from (
select '<person><firstName>Jon</firstName><lastName>Johnson</lastName></person>' xmlField
union select '<person><firstName>Kathy</firstName><lastName>Carter</lastName></person>'
union select '<person><firstName>Bob</firstName><lastName>Burns</lastName></person>'
) tb

SELECT
    xmlField.value('(person/firstName)[1]', 'nvarchar(max)') as FirstName
    ,xmlField.value('(person/lastName)[1]', 'nvarchar(max)') as LastName
FROM tmp

drop table tmp

我仍然发现其中一些建议令人困惑。每当我在字符串中使用valuewith [1]时，它只会检索第一个值。并建议使用一些建议cross apply（在我的测试中），这些建议会带回太多数据。

因此，这是我的一个简单示例，说明如何创建xml对象，然后将其值读出到表中。

DECLARE @str nvarchar(2000)

SET @str = ''
SET @str = @str + '<users>'
SET @str = @str + '  <user>'
SET @str = @str + '     <firstName>Mike</firstName>'
SET @str = @str + '     <lastName>Gledhill</lastName>'
SET @str = @str + '     <age>31</age>'
SET @str = @str + '  </user>'
SET @str = @str + '  <user>'
SET @str = @str + '     <firstName>Mark</firstName>'
SET @str = @str + '     <lastName>Stevens</lastName>'
SET @str = @str + '     <age>42</age>'
SET @str = @str + '  </user>'
SET @str = @str + '  <user>'
SET @str = @str + '     <firstName>Sarah</firstName>'
SET @str = @str + '     <lastName>Brown</lastName>'
SET @str = @str + '     <age>23</age>'
SET @str = @str + '  </user>'
SET @str = @str + '</users>'

DECLARE @xml xml
SELECT @xml = CAST(CAST(@str AS VARBINARY(MAX)) AS XML) 

--  Iterate through each of the "users\user" records in our XML
SELECT 
    x.Rec.query('./firstName').value('.', 'nvarchar(2000)') AS 'FirstName',
    x.Rec.query('./lastName').value('.', 'nvarchar(2000)') AS 'LastName',
    x.Rec.query('./age').value('.', 'int') AS 'Age'
FROM @xml.nodes('/users/user') as x(Rec)

这是输出：

这是一种奇怪的语法，但是有一个不错的示例，将其添加到您自己的SQL Server函数中很容易。

说到这里，这是对这个问题的正确答案。

假设您的xml数据@xml的类型xml为变量（如上面的示例所示），这是从问题中引用的xml返回三行数据的方式：

SELECT 
    x.Rec.query('./firstName').value('.', 'nvarchar(2000)') AS 'FirstName',
    x.Rec.query('./lastName').value('.', 'nvarchar(2000)') AS 'LastName'
FROM @xml.nodes('/person') as x(Rec)

如果您能够将XML包装在根元素中-请说以下是您的解决方案：

DECLARE @PersonsXml XML = '<persons><person><firstName>Jon</firstName><lastName>Johnson</lastName></person>
<person><firstName>Kathy</firstName><lastName>Carter</lastName></person>
<person><firstName>Bob</firstName><lastName>Burns</lastName></person></persons>'

SELECT  b.value('(./firstName/text())[1]','nvarchar(max)') as FirstName, b.value('(./lastName/text())[1]','nvarchar(max)') as LastName
FROM @PersonsXml.nodes('/persons/person') AS a(b)

MSSQL使用常规XPath规则，如下所示：

• nodename选择名称为“ nodename”的所有节点
• /从根节点选择
• //从当前节点中选择匹配选择的节点，无论它们在何处
• 。选择当前节点
• ..选择当前节点的父节点
• @选择属性
