I have a method with four incoming arrays.
The first two arrays $whereColumns[]
and $updateColumns[]
contain columns names.
The third column $whereFilters[]
contains filters for where
methods.
And the last one $updateFilters[]
contains values for updating.
How can I generate only one search query with several where
methods and several updated columns? Now I know only how create a query with several where
methods in a loop.
for($i=0; $<count($whereColumns); $i++){
$query->where($whereColumns[$i], '=', $whereFilters[$i]);
}
$result = $query->get();
But how to generate a query with update
like this (but this doesn't work):
for($i=0; $i<count($updateColumns); $i++){
$query->update($updateColumns[$i] => $updateFilters[$i]);
}
$result = $query->get();
Both of these loops should generate one search query in total for updating a table data.
You can loop through your
$updateColumns
and create an array containing all columns and values like this:$updateArray = [$column[0] => $value[0], $column[1] => $value[1]];
Then you can put this whole array into the query
$query->update($updateArray);
