Cláusulas CONNECT BY e START WITH no Oracle SQL

Question

Quero dados hierárquicos para os dados de teste fornecidos abaixo.Para o usuário 'jones' deve buscar os registros abaixo.Estou tendo problemas com as cláusulas CONNECT BY e START WITH.Também acho que há algum problema de JOIN entre as tabelas menu_items AND role_menu_items.

para o usuário e suas funções correspondentes, preciso encontrar os dados abaixo

select  mi.id,  mi.NAME,mi.MEN_ID,mi.ICON,mi.ACTION--,r.NAME 
from
menu_items mi,
role_menu_items rmi,
roles r,
USERS U,
USER_ROLES UR
where
mi.ID=rmi.MIT_ID and
rmi.ROL_ID=r.id and
r.id=UR.ROLE_ID and
U.ID=UR.USER_ID and
U.NAME='jones'
start with mi.men_id is null
connect by   prior  mi.ID=mi.men_id

Answer 1

esquema ruim, mas é possível

1. selecione todos os menu_id para a função do usuário

---

select RMI.MIT_ID
from ROLE_MENU_ITEMS RMI
   , ROLES R
   , USERS U
   , USER_ROLES UR
where RMI.ROL_ID = R.ID
  and R.ID = UR.ROLE_ID
  and U.ID = UR.USER_ID
  and U.NAME = 'jones'

2. consulta de hierarquia reversa

---

select MI.*
     , max(LEVEL) over () + 1 - level as rev_level
     , lpad(' ', (max(LEVEL) over () + 1 - LEVEL) * 3, ' ') || MI.NAME as LEVEL_NAME
     , rownum RN
from MENU_ITEMS MI
connect by prior MEN_ID = ID
start with ID IN (select RMI.MIT_ID
                  from ROLE_MENU_ITEMS RMI
                     , ROLES R
                     , USERS U
                     , USER_ROLES UR
                  where RMI.ROL_ID = R.ID
                    and R.ID = UR.ROLE_ID
                    and U.ID = UR.USER_ID
                    and U.NAME = 'jones')

3. reverso (consulta de hierarquia reversa)

---

select ID
     , NAME
     , SHORTCUT
     , DISPLAY_SEQUENCE
     , ACTION
     , MEN_ID
     , ICON
     , LEVEL_NAME
from 
(
    select MI.*
         , max(LEVEL) over () + 1 - level as rev_level
         , lpad(' ', (max(LEVEL) over () + 1 - LEVEL) * 3, ' ') || MI.NAME as LEVEL_NAME
         , rownum RN
    from MENU_ITEMS MI
    connect by prior MEN_ID = ID
    start with ID IN (select RMI.MIT_ID
                      from ROLE_MENU_ITEMS RMI
                         , ROLES R
                         , USERS U
                         , USER_ROLES UR
                      where RMI.ROL_ID = R.ID
                        and R.ID = UR.ROLE_ID
                        and U.ID = UR.USER_ID
                        and U.NAME = 'jones')
)
group by ID --distinct with order
       , name
       , SHORTCUT
       , DISPLAY_SEQUENCE
       , ACTION
       , MEN_ID
       , ICON
       , LEVEL_NAME
order by min(-RN)

possível manter o tipo de itens raiz por ID, usando uma subconsulta

select ID
     , NAME
     , SHORTCUT
     , DISPLAY_SEQUENCE
     , ACTION
     , MEN_ID
     , ICON
     , LEVEL_NAME
from 
(
    select ID
         , NAME
         , SHORTCUT
         , DISPLAY_SEQUENCE
         , ACTION
         , MEN_ID
         , ICON
         , MAX(LVL) OVER () + 1 - LVL
         , rpad(' ', (max(LVL) over () + 1 - LVL) * 3, ' ') || NAME as LEVEL_NAME
         , RN
    from (
        select MI.*
             , rownum RN
             , level LVL
        from MENU_ITEMS MI
        connect by prior MEN_ID = ID
        start with ID IN (select RMI.MIT_ID
                          from ROLE_MENU_ITEMS RMI
                             , ROLES R
                             , USERS U
                             , USER_ROLES UR
                          where RMI.ROL_ID = R.ID
                            and R.ID = UR.ROLE_ID
                            and U.ID = UR.USER_ID
                            and U.NAME = 'jones')
        order siblings by -ID
    )
)
group by ID --distinct with order
       , name
       , SHORTCUT
       , DISPLAY_SEQUENCE
       , ACTION
       , MEN_ID
       , ICON
       , LEVEL_NAME
order by min(-RN)
