WCA Database SQL Dump

A repo full of SQL queries to run to supplement the official World Cube Association database available at https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/misc/export.html

Outputs

Some stats have been output to a markdown file in /docs for easy access to quick statistics, and some which I have contributed to the WCA Statistics Facebook Group. These are also available via GitHub Pages here.

These are most likely out of date, you can message me whereever and I will update whichever table to the current developer export.

Prerequisites

To run these, have an SQL server with databases named wca, wca_dev and wca_stats. Also in the wca_stats database, have a table named last_updated with three columns named query (varchar20), started, completed (both DATETIME) and a notes field for any details. To do these, you can run the following queries:

CREATE DATABASE wca;
CREATE DATABASE wca_dev;
CREATE DATABASE wca_stats;
CREATE TABLE `wca_stats`.`last_updated` (
  `query` varchar(20) NOT NULL,
  `started` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
  `completed` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
  `notes` TEXT DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (query));

The last_updated table will show you the last time the two databases were last updated in addition to the SQL queries, as these have statements to update this table in addition to their primary purpose.

There are .sh files in /bin which automatically do the following:

bin/wcadevstsupd.sh will pull the latest developer export from the WCA if the one available online is newer than the local version, and run the queries in the tables/ directory, which will import into the wca_stats database.

bin/wcadevupd.sh will import the latest developer export, even if there isn't a newer version available. This won't run any additional queries.

bin/wcadevstsupdforce.sh will import the latest developer export and run the queries in the tables/ directory, even if the most recent developer export is already imported in the server.

bin/wcaupd.sh will pull the latest public export from the WCA into the wca table. This won't run any additional queries.

Notes

To run these, you will have to edit them yourself as I will have a different username and password to your mysql server. For reference, my username is sam and my password is stored in a file in ~/.mysqlpw/mysql.conf. Its contents is a singular line such as this: mysqlpw='mypassword'; just replace mypassword for your own.

I also have a script that utilises a Discord Webhook to ping my WCA_Stats server to tell me when each table is updated and how long it took. If you have no need for this, delete the discord-notify.sh lines in the scripts in bin/.
