是否可以遍历我的SQL数据库中的每个表并查找其他行未使用的记录？ PK / FK检查

如何解决是否可以遍历我的SQL数据库中的每个表并查找其他行未使用的记录？ PK / FK检查

我想编写一个SQL脚本，该脚本可以指出整个数据库中的哪些记录未被其他表用作引用。

例如，如果我有一个“ 评论”表，我想找出表中的哪些记录在用户中没有关系条目，帖子中的 nor ，但未按名称指定这些表格。 像这样：

'COLLECT ALL TABLES'
   'LOOP OVER EACH ROW IN THIS TABLE'
      'CHECK OTHER TABLES TO SEE IF THIS PARTICULAR PK_ID IS PRESENT AS A FOREIGN KEY'
         'IF FOUND NOT FOUND'
            'DELETE THIS ROW FROM THIS TABLE'

我知道如何做“如果没有找到”和“删除”部分，但是我在努力寻找前三个步骤。 欢迎任何想法和/或有用的提示或链接。 我很高兴在完成这篇文章后分享我的脚本作为对此文章的评论，因为我认为许多SQL开发人员都可以使用它。

解决方法

我想出自己编写脚本的地方，这里就是（使用Dynamic SQL）

我有185个表和〜190.000个Description条目，执行此脚本后最终得到了〜15.000个Description行。 （问题是，在更改对象的描述时创建了新的描述，而不是对其进行更新。在代码中修复此错误后，我进入了数据库）。该脚本花费了大约3个小时来完成。

USE [YOUR_DATABASE]

PRINT 'BEGIN SCRIPT'

SELECT TABLE_NAME INTO ALL_TABLES
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' AND TABLE_CATALOG='YOUR_DATABASE' 

-- delete non relevant entities in ALL_TABLES table
delete from ALL_TABLES where TABLE_NAME = 'ALL_TABLES'  -- delete the 'all_tables' table
delete from ALL_TABLES where TABLE_NAME = 'DESCRIPTION' -- your to-check table

-- hide rowcounts
set nocount on


-- Variables to use in the cursors

    @tableName NVARCHAR(MAX),@descriptionId   INT,@descriptionInUse BIT;

        CLOSE cursor_allTables;

            -- fetch next Description Id  from Descriptions
        FETCH NEXT FROM cursor_descriptionCleanUp INTO 
            @descriptionId;
    END;

CLOSE cursor_descriptionCleanUp;

-- clean up 
DEALLOCATE cursor_descriptionCleanUp;
DEALLOCATE cursor_allTables;
drop table ALL_TABLES

set nocount off
