本文通过实例介绍了MySQL中的group_concat函数的使用方法，比如select group_concat(name) 。
MySQL中group_concat函数
完整的语法如下：
group_concat([DISTINCT] 要连接的字段 [Order BY ASC/DESC 排序字段] [Separator '分隔符'])
基本查询
mysql> select * from aa;
+------+------+
| id| name |
+------+------+
|1 | 10|
|1 | 20|
|1 | 20|
|2 | 20|
|3 | 200 |
|3 | 500 |
+------+------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
以id分组，把name字段的值打印在一行，逗号分隔(默认)
mysql> select id,group_concat(name) from aa group by id;
+------+--------------------+
| id| group_concat(name) |
+------+--------------------+
|1 | 10,20,20|
|2 | 20 |
|3 | 200,500|
+------+--------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
以id分组，把name字段的值打印在一行，分号分隔
mysql> select id,group_concat(name separator ';') from aa group by id;
+------+----------------------------------+
| id| group_concat(name separator ';') |
+------+----------------------------------+
|1 | 10;20;20 |
|2 | 20|
|3 | 200;500 |
+------+----------------------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
以id分组，把去冗余的name字段的值打印在一行，
逗号分隔
mysql> select id,group_concat(distinct name) from aa group by id;
+------+-----------------------------+
| id| group_concat(distinct name) |
+------+-----------------------------+
|1 | 10,20|
|2 | 20 |
|3 | 200,500 |
+------+-----------------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
以id分组，把name字段的值打印在一行，逗号分隔，以name排倒序
mysql> select id,group_concat(name order by name desc) from aa group by id;
+------+---------------------------------------+
| id| group_concat(name order by name desc) |
+------+---------------------------------------+
|1 | 20,20,10 |
|2 | 20|
|3 | 500,200|
+------+---------------------------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
完整的应用实例：select inday,GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT department_id ORDER BY department_id desc Separator '|') as department_id from sc_schedule group by inday
