I have this parameterized query in an Npgsqlcommand:
UPDATE raw.geocoding
SET the_geom = ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(:longitude :latitude)', 4326),3081)
WHERE id=:id
:longutide
and :latitude
are double, and id
is int.
The query that is actually run against the DB looks like this:
UPDATE raw.geocoding
SET the_geom = ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(((E'-96.6864379495382')::float8) ((E'32.792527154088')::float8))', 4326),3081)
WHERE id=((10793455)::int4)
Thanks to help from Erwin Brandstetter here, it's apparent that the query needs to be simplified to work with PostGIS. He suggested this:
UPDATE raw.geocoding
SET the_geom = ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText(
$$POINT(:longitude :latitude)$$::geometry, 4326), 3081)
WHERE id = :id
I guess I could create this with a dynamic query, where I manually update the query every time I run it, but is there a way to make this work with a Npgsql parameterized query?
I am not an expert with npgsql
, but I think your parameterized query could work like this:
UPDATE raw.geocoding
SET the_geom = ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText(:mygeom, 4326), 3081)
WHERE id = :id
And mygeom
would hold this string:
POINT(96.6864379495382 32.792527154088)
.. pre-assembled from your other variables. Would result in a query like this:
UPDATE raw.geocoding
SET the_geom = ST_Transform(ST_GeomFromText(
(E'POINT(96.6864379495382 32.792527154088)')::text, 4326),3081)
WHERE id=((10793455)::int4)
Which should work.
If you have trouble assembling the string (like your comment demonstrates), there is a more elegant way. As per hint from @Paul on my previous answer - PostGIS provides a dedicated function for the purpose:
ST_MakePoint(double precision x, double precision y)
Details in the manual. With this, we finally arrive at:
UPDATE raw.geocoding
SET the_geom = ST_Transform(ST_SetSRID(
ST_MakePoint(:longitude, :latitude), 4326), 3081)
WHERE id = :id
Note the comma. Will it finally work now?
If not, just beat it with a sledgehammer. Grml.
It does - with ST_SetSRID()
now instead of ST_GeomFromText()
. See comment.
In my case, I used:
NpgsqlCommand command = new NpgsqlCommand(
"select ST_Distance( ST_SetSRID(" +
"ST_MakePoint(@longitude, @latitude), 4326)," +
"(select geom from segments where segment_id= @id )," +
"true)",
m_DBConnection);
And it worked. Also, try with:
NpgsqlCommand command = new NpgsqlCommand(
"select ST_AsText( ST_ClosestPoint( ST_GeomFromText('POINT(" +
longitude.ToString(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US").NumberFormat) + " " +
latitude.ToString(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US").NumberFormat) + ")', 4326)," +
"(select geom from segments where segment_id= @id )))",
m_DBConnection);
Thanks.
