I'm using a complex SQL query in a Codeigniter model with a limit applied. I'd like to count the total number of rows that would have been found if the limit and offset had not been applied.
I'd like to return the count, along with the result array, to my controller - how do I do this? Where do I put SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS if this is the right solution?
Here's the query (which I didn't build myself originally):
$this->db
->select('table1.*
,table2.*
,table3.*
,table4.*
,table5.*
,table6.*
,table7.*
,table8.*
,table9.*
,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(field1) FROM table10 WHERE table10.field3 = table9.field2) as categories
,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(field1) FROM table5 WHERE table5.field11 = table4.field12 AND table4.field21 = 0 AND table5.field1 != 0) as categories2
,(SELECT AVG(table11.field4) FROM table11 WHERE table11.field6 = table9.field2) as rating
,(SELECT COUNT(table12.field5) FROM table12 WHERE table12.field7 = table9.field2) as rated_times')
->from('table9')
->join('table10', 'table10.field3 = table9.field2')
->join('categories', 'categories.field1 = table10.field1')
->join('table3', 'table3.field8 = table9.field2')
->join('table1', 'table1.id = table9.field2')
->join('table2', 'table2.field9 = table9.field2 AND table2.field19 = 1', 'left')
->join('table4', 'table4.field10 = table9.field2 AND table4.field21 = 0', 'left')
->join('table5', 'table5.field11 = table4.field12 AND table5.field1 != 0', 'left')
->join('table6', 'table6.field13 = table9.field2 AND table6.field22 BETWEEN SYSDATE() - INTERVAL 90 DAY AND SYSDATE()', 'left')
->join('table7', 'table7.field14 = table9.field2', 'left')
->join('table8', 'table8.field15 = table9.field2', 'left')
->where('table1.field16', NULL)
->where($where_clause_1, null, FALSE)
->where('table9.field17', $searchArray['search_country'])
->or_where($or_where_clause_2, null, FALSE)
->or_where($or_where_clause_3, null, FALSE)
->or_where($or_where_clause_4, null, FALSE)
->or_where($or_where_clause_5, null, FALSE)
->or_where($or_where_clause_6, null, FALSE)
->or_where($or_where_clause_7, null, FALSE)
->like('table9.field17', $searchArray['search_country'])
->order_by('table3.field18', 'ASC')
->order_by('table2.field19', 'DESC')
->order_by('table1.field20', 'DESC')
->group_by('table9.field2')
->limit($limit, $offset);
$data = $this->db->get();
return $data->result_array();
Really appreciate any help!
