[MariaDB 10.4, PHP8.0] How can I rewrite this so it works so it get weight_date from the row with MAX(total_weight) and list it AS highest_weight_date? I have read that we can’t use MAX() among with WHERE? I have tested to rewrite several examples, but I give up and embarrassed show my latest try:
weight_date HAVING total_weight=MAX(total_weight) AS highest_weight_date
I try to add it to this but I get error. https://dbfiddle.uk/?rdbms=mysql_8.0&fiddle=9c057570bd60cdf20a7148189a77fdc4
SELECT * , LEAD(total_weight, 1) OVER( ORDER BY weight_date DESC ) AS prev_total_weight , LEAD(weight_date, 1) OVER( ORDER BY weight_date DESC ) AS prev_total_weight_date , MIN(total_weight) OVER() AS lowest_weight , MAX(total_weight) OVER() AS highest_weight , FROM_UNIXTIME(weight_date, '%u') AS weight_week , ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY weight_date DESC ) AS RowNum FROM ( SELECT *, weight_start_week + weight_end_week AS total_weight FROM YourTable ) t ORDER BY RowNum
Thanks

Answer
To get the highest_weight_date (the weight_date from the row that has the highest total_weight), you just want to add to your select:
FIRST_VALUE(weight_date) OVER (ORDER BY total_weight DESC) AS highest_weight_date
though I would recommend doing ORDER BY total_weight DESC, weight_date
or ORDER BY total_weight DESC, weight_date DESC
so you deterministically get either the first or last date with that weight, not an arbitrary one, when the weight occurs on more than one date.
