Search db Code Igniter string contained - database

I'm trying to do a "searcher" in code igniter and I'm new on it. I know I can do:
$query= $this->db->get_where('products', array('producto_nombre' => 'Arenal');
To get the exact coincidences. What can I do if I want to get on my query every partial coincidence, I mean, I want to get the product "Arenal" and also the product "Arenal Sound" and so.

try LIKE instead of WHERE
$this->db->like('producto_nombre', 'Arenal', 'both');
$query = $this->db->get('products');

Displaying Parse Data to ContainerList

I want to display data from Parse in a list from GamesScores class using Container in Codename One, this is what I've tried so far and it's not showing anything nor giving any errors:
Container container = findListCont();
container.setLayout(BoxLayout.y());
container.setScrollableY(true);
ParseQuery<ParseObject> query = ParseQuery.getQuery("GameScore");
List<ParseObject> results = (List<ParseObject>) query.find();
System.out.println("Size: " + results.size());
container.addComponent(results, f);
Please help me out, I'm a new in Codename One. If there tutorials on it, please share or anything to help me achieve the desired results.
I'm actually shocked this isn't failing. You are using the add constraint to place the object result as a constraint and you add the form object into the container...
You need to loop over the results and convert them to components to add into the layout. It also seems that you are using the old GUI builder which I would recommend against.
Generally something like this rough pseudo code should work assuming you are using a box Y layout:
for(ParseObject o : results) {
MultiButton mb = new MultiButton(o.getDisplayValue());
f.add(mb);
}
f.revalidate();

Can I use same param name multiple times in the URL for codeigniter-restserver?

http://example.com/api/transfer/transfers/code/456/code/234
When using $this->get('code') on a url like above I expect the REST library to return an array or a list of the codes.
Instead it returns the last one.
Is there a way to return both values in a list, or is there another recommandation for formating the URL.
Thank you
I know it has been long since you posted the question. However it could help other people looking for the same thing.
Assuming that transfer is your controller and transfers is the function, another way to format your url could be:
http://example.com/api/transfer/transfers?code[]=456&code[]=234
This was you perform $this->get('code') you'll get an array back.
If you are creating the url via code then you may use http_build_query(). It handles the necessary escaping. It means it will replace [ for %5B and ] for %5D, in this case.
The code would be like:
$codes = array(456, 234);
$query = http_build_query(array('code' => $data));
$url = 'http://example.com/api/transfer/transfers?' . $query;

How to store data from SmartGWT ListGrid?

I've been searching for hours but I couldn't find an answer to my question: I've set up a ListGrid similar to the one shown here (Link). Right now I am using a XML-File as data source (default rows) just like in the example. It is also possible to add and delete rows to/from the grid.
Therefore I would like to store every user's data from the grid in a data store (Google Datastore). So I need to read all the rows of the current user as Strings. What would be a good way to do that? I already tried the following, but without success:
ListGrid componentsGrid = new ListGrid();
componentsGrid.setWidth(500);
componentsGrid.setHeight(224);
componentsGrid.setCellHeight(22);
componentsGrid.setDataSource(ComponentsXmlDS.getInstance());
componentsGrid.setAutoFetchData(true);
componentsGrid.setCanEdit(true);
componentsGrid.setModalEditing(true);
componentsGrid.setEditEvent(ListGridEditEvent.CLICK);
componentsGrid.setListEndEditAction(RowEndEditAction.NEXT);
componentsGrid.setAutoSaveEdits(false);
layout.addMember(componentsGrid);
//First try
componentsGrid.fetchData();
logger.log(Level.INFO, "Components: "+ componentsGrid.getResultSet().get(0).getAttribute("componentType"));
//Second try
logger.log(Level.INFO, "Components: "+ componentsGrid.getAllFields());
// Third try
logger.log(Level.INFO, "Components: "+ componentsGrid.getRecords());
Anyone having a hint? Help is greatly appreciated.
If I understand well your requirement you want to read all the rows of the grid and store their data in a db.
I think you can use:
getRecordList() which *Return the underlying data of this DataBoundComponent as a RecordList.
You will be able to iterate inside this list, extract the attribute value you want for every record and store these data in your db.
Or use the getRecords() method as you said and iterate in the array of ListGridRecord obtained.
To iterate through your RecordList you have to transform it to an array, for example with a lot of dummy objects and methods:
RecordList data = MyGrid.getRecordList();
for(Record record : data.toArray()){
MyDataObject obj = new MyDataObject()
obj.setId(record.getAttribute("thId"));
obj.setOne(record.getAttribute("anAttribute"));
obj.setTwo(record.getAttribute("anotherAttribute"));
obj.StoreToDb();
}

Setting array equal to JSON array - Xcode

I'm trying to figure out how to populate a table from a JSON array. So far, I can populate my table cells perfectly fine by using the following code:
self.countries = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:#"Argentina",#"China",#"Russia",nil];
Concerning the JSON, I can successfully retrieve one line of text at a time and display it in a label. My goal is to populate an entire table view from a JSON array. I tried using the following code, but it still won't populate my table. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I searched everywhere and still can't figure it out:
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://BlahBlahBlah.com/CountryList"];
NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
AFJSONRequestOperation *operation = [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:request success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id JSON)
{
NSLog(#"%#",[JSON objectForKey:#"COUNTRIES"]);
self.countries = [JSON objectForKey:#"COUNTRIES"];
}
failure:nil];
[operation start];
I am positive that the data is being retrieved, because the NSLog outputs the text perfectly fine. But when I try setting my array equal to the JSON array, nothing happens. I know the code is probably wrong, but I think I'm on the right track. Your help would be much appreciated.
EDIT:
This is the text in the JSON file I'm using:
{
"COUNTRIES": ["Argentina", "China", "Russia",]
}

It seems that you need some basic JSON parsing. If you only target iOS 5.0 and above devices, then you should use NSJSONSerialization. If you need to support earlier iOS versions, then I really recommend the open source JSONKit framework.
Having recommended the above, I myself almost always use the Sensible TableView framework to fetch all data from my web service and automatically display it on a table view. Saves me a ton of manual labor and makes app maintenance a breeze, so it's probably something to consider too. Good luck!

Google Datastore problem with query on *User* type

On this question I solved the problem of querying Google Datastore to retrieve stuff by user (com.google.appengine.api.users.User) like this:
User user = userService.getCurrentUser();
String select_query = "select from " + Greeting.class.getName();
Query query = pm.newQuery(select_query);
query.setFilter("author == paramAuthor");
query.declareParameters("java.lang.String paramAuthor");
greetings = (List<Greeting>) query.execute(user);
The above works fine - but after a bit of messing around I realized this syntax in not very practical as the need to build more complicated queries arises - so I decided to manually build my filters and now I got for example something like the following (where the filter is usually passed in as a string variable but now is built inline for simplicity):
User user = userService.getCurrentUser();
String select_query = "select from " + Greeting.class.getName();
Query query = pm.newQuery(select_query);
query.setFilter("author == '"+ user.getEmail() +"'");
greetings = (List<Greeting>) query.execute();
Obviously this won't work even if this syntax with field = 'value' is supported by JDOQL and it works fine on other fields (String types and Enums). The other strange thing is that looking at the Data viewer in the app-engine dashboard the 'author' field is stored as type User but the value is 'user#gmail.com', and then again when I set it up as parameter (the case above that works fine) I am declaring the parameter as a String then passing down an instance of User (user) which gets serialized with a simple toString() (I guess).
Anyone any idea?
Using string substitution in query languages is always a bad idea. It's far too easy for a user to break out and mess with your environment, and it introduces a whole collection of encoding issues, etc.
What was wrong with your earlier parameter substitution approach? As far as I'm aware, it supports everything, and it sidesteps any parsing issues. As far as the problem with knowing how many arguments to pass goes, you can use Query.executeWithMap or Query.executeWithArray to execute a query with an unknown number of arguments.
