Oracle DB equivalent of on duplicate key update

oracle, sql

Solution

You would need to use a `MERGE`. Something like

MERGE INTO users dest
  USING( SELECT 1 user_id, 10 points FROM dual) src
     ON( dest.user_id = src.user_id )
 WHEN MATCHED THEN
   UPDATE SET points = src.points
 WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
   INSERT( user_id, points ) 
     VALUES( src.user_id, src.points );

Problem

I need to execute the following MySQL-query in Oracle: ``` INSERT INTO users VALUES(1,10) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE points = 10; ``` Is there something else besides `merge`? I just don't understand it.
