sql - Getting Unavailable dates for renting a product that has stocks

Database queries, normally so simple, yet sometimes so difficult. (brain trainer)

So I have products, stocks and rentStockOrders. These products can be rented for a set of days. The stocks also have a date when they are available. If a new product (stock) can be rented depends on the already rented stocks of that product.

  • A stock item cannot be rented before it's available date.
  • A rentStockOrder (linked between order and stocks) contains the bookings, thus rentStartDate and rentEndDate.
  • A product can be rented for a set of days, where the start date is not given. The product is selected, and after that a date time picker is used to select a starting day for renting.
  • An overall minimum and maximum date is applied (about a year ahead).

The idea is that the user didn't select the start date yet, before the user is able to do that I want to disable certain dates in a datetimepicker that cannot be used as starting date because there are no stocks available for the product's renting period.

To put it in a context: One product is selected, the user is given the option to specify a length in days he wants to rent this product (1 week, 2 weeks or 3 weeks). When the user has selected that, they must select a start date. Instead of every time showing an error that this date is not available, I rather disable start dates before hand.

Since it is more often that a product is available for renting then not, I think it is better to send a list of unavailable select dates to my website instead of a whole list of available dates. So the days that are not available cannot be clicked in a date time picker.

Most examples I have found so far include a input parameter for start and end date which I don't have, all I have a length in days a product wants to be rented and how many stocks are already rented for certain time frames.

EDIT:

As requested, test data and tables:

Stocks

+---------+-----------+-------------------+
| stockId | productId | availableFromDate |
+---------+-----------+-------------------+
|       1 |         1 | 1-01-2016         |
|       2 |         1 | 1-01-2016         |
+---------+-----------+-------------------+

RentStockOrders

+------------------+---------+----------------+----------------+
| rentStockOrderId | stockId | beginRentDate  |  endRentDate   |
+------------------+---------+----------------+----------------+
|                1 |       1 | 15-1-2016      | 14-2-2016      |
|                2 |       2 | 30-1-2016      | 20-2-2016      |
|                3 |       2 | 26-2-2016      | 7-3-2016       |
|                4 |       1 | 29-2-2016      | 14-3-2016      |
+------------------+---------+----------------+----------------+

Based on these records, I want to generate a list of unavailable dates. I've left out some columns for simplicity

Input is a day and a productId. So if I would input for days: 14 and for productId: 1 I would have some of the following expected results:

  • 25-01-2016 (stockId 1 is already booked, and stock 2 is booked soon, 14 days not possible.
  • 30-01-2016 (both booked)
  • 13-02-2016 (stock 1 is not back yet)
  • 17-02-2016 (stock 2 already booked, stock 1 will be rented in 13 days, not enough for 14).
  • ..and a lot more where both stocks are already rented.

What I would NOT expect is for example 15-02-2016, because Stock 1 would be available for the next 14 days.

If it is to difficult, then perhaps getting the available dates is simpler and I will switch this around in code. In this example it would be less data to pull from the database, but in reality there are about 250 items of one product so getting the unavailable dates perhaps better.

I've tried this answer to get the available dates, with no success yet, no errors, just returns no data.

declare @startDate datetime, @endDate datetime, @days int
select @startDate = '2016/01/01', @endDate='2016/03/31', @days=2

select stockId, min(endRentDate)
from
    (
    select  stockId ,endRentDate,
            (select top 1 endRentDate
            from RentStockOrders sInner
            where sInner.endRentDate > sOuter.beginRentDate
                    and sInner.stockId = sOuter.stockId
                    and sInner.endRentDate between @startDate and @endDate
            order by sInner.endRentDate) as nextAvailableDate
    from    RentStockOrders sOuter
    where sOuter.beginRentDate between @startDate and @endDate
    ) sub
group by stockId, nextAvailableDate
having dateDiff(d, min(endRentDate), isNull(nextAvailableDate,dateAdd(d,1,@endDate))) >= @days

This question is pretty difficult if you want to just use SQL if not impossible. I have made an pretty optimized/performant solution using Oracle PL/SQL and SQL. You can easily translate it to TSQL. The function returns a set/collection of dates. I also made another version which returns one big string with space seperated date values like "01-01-2016 02-01-2016 03-01-2016" etc... You could also make a version which return all seperate dates as date periodstrings for example "01-01-2016/10-01-2016 15-01-2016/25-01-2016" which you can then easily send to- and parse- in your application.
