Magento: Mysql records with NULL values are not fetched in query

After banging my head on my desk trying to get the records with NULL values with Magento ORM, it was found that writing

1 2	$collection->addAttributeToFilter('somefield', 'null') $collection->addAttributeToFilter('somefield', array('is' => 'null'))

will check for any blank values like this: WHERE somefield = ”

So if you want to fetch records that have NULL values in Magento style, you need to write as following:

1	$collection->addAttributeToFilter('somefield', array('null'=>'null')

will check like WHERE somefield = null

Hope this saves someone’s time!

Magento: Joining/group by – order, invoice, shipment tables

Ever tried to join multiple tables in Magento? Joining and grouping tables is not that easy in Magento ORM than in simple MySql way we did for years.

Here is a piece of code where I was required to grab all the data from orders, invoices, shipments to generate reports for warehouse people to make their life easier.

$collection = Mage::getResourceModel('sales/order_shipment_item_collection');
$collection->addFieldToSelect('section_id');
$collection->addFieldToSelect('shelf_id');
$collection->addFieldToSelect('rack_id');
$collection->addFieldToSelect('box_id');
//$collection->addFieldToSelect('GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT main_table.product_id SEPARATOR ",")','product_ids');</p>
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_shipment_grid', 'main_table.parent_id = sales_flat_shipment_grid.entity_id', array('increment_id as shipment_increment_id', 'created_at as shipment_created_at', 'order_increment_id','total_qty'));
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_shipment_track', 'sales_flat_shipment_grid.entity_id = sales_flat_shipment_track.parent_id', array('number as track_id', 'carrier_code as carrier_name'));
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_order', 'sales_flat_shipment_track.order_id = sales_flat_order.entity_id', array('created_at as order_created_at','grand_total as ord_grand_total'));
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_order_item', 'main_table.order_item_id = sales_flat_order_item.item_id', array('product_type'));
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_order_payment', 'sales_flat_shipment_track.order_id = sales_flat_order_payment.parent_id', array('method as payment_method'));
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_order_address', 'sales_flat_shipment_track.order_id = sales_flat_order_address.parent_id', array('firstname','lastname','street','city','postcode','region','telephone'));
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft('sales_flat_invoice', 'sales_flat_shipment_track.order_id = sales_flat_invoice.order_id', array('grand_total'));
//$collection->addAttributeToFilter('main_table.price', array('gt' => 0));
if($pickup_ids!='' &#038;&#038; is_array($pickup_ids))
    $collection->addAttributeToFilter('sales_flat_shipment_grid.entity_id', array('in' => $pickup_ids));
$collection->getSelect()->columns(
    array('product_ids' => new Zend_Db_Expr(
        "IFNULL(GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT main_table.product_id SEPARATOR ';'), '')"
)));
$collection->getSelect()->columns(
    array('weight' => new Zend_Db_Expr(
        "IFNULL(SUM(main_table.weight)/2, '')"
)));
$collection->getSelect()->group('shipment_increment_id');
//$collection->getSelect()->group('track_id');
//Mage::log($collection->getSelect()->__toString());
$this->setCollection($collection);
//$this->getCollection()->getSelect()->limit();

Although the query is so expensive, I have not yet tried to optimize it due to lack of time.
