Filling a column with incremental numbers












0















I got an SQL query like this:



SELECT o.option_id,v.value,o.sort_order
FROM eav_attribute_option o
INNER JOIN eav_attribute_option_value v
ON o.option_id=v.option_id
WHERE v.store_id=1
AND o.attribute_id=167
ORDER BY v.value;


The result is:



+-----------+-------+------------+
| option_id | value | sort_order |
+-----------+-------+------------+
| 320 | a | 1 |
| 64 | b | 2 |
| 444 | c | 3 |
| 65 | d | 3 |
| 66 | m | 5 |
| 67 | s | 7 |
| 238 | x | 5 |
| 68 | z | 6 |
+-----------+-------+------------+


I need to update the sort_order, filling with numbers from 1 to N,
based on the alphabetical order of the value field.
Is it possible with SQL only? The result after should be:



+-----------+-------+------------+
| option_id | value | sort_order |
+-----------+-------+------------+
| 320 | a | 1 |
| 64 | b | 2 |
| 444 | c | 3 |
| 65 | d | 4 |
| 66 | m | 5 |
| 67 | s | 6 |
| 238 | x | 7 |
| 68 | z | 8 |
+-----------+-------+------------+

          You have just to transform the query to perform update instead of select.
