How to create/add a column in an SQL select query based on another column’s values?

I want to dynamically add another column hook_name, via an SQL select query, based on a condition.

For example if hook_type = 0, table hook_name should have a value of OFFER, and similarly for hook_type = 1, hook_name should show “ACCEPT”.

Below is a screenshot of the result:

The select query is this:

select hook_type, 'hook name' as hook_name,
       count(*) as number_of_exchange_activities 
from `exchange` 
group by hook_type # hook_type 0 for OFFER, 1 for ACCEPT and 2 for offer EXPIRED;

Thanks in advance.

Answer

Use a Standard SQL CASE:

SELECT hook_type, 
   CASE hook_type
      WHEN 0 THEN 'OFFER'
      WHEN 1 THEN 'ACCEPT'
      WHEN 2 THEN 'EXPIRED'
   END AS hook_name,
   COUNT(*) AS number_of_exchange_activities 
FROM `exchange` 
GROUP BY hook_type
