I can limit the size of characters of table field in mysql as simple
SELECT NID,LEFT(BODY, 10) AS text FROM tablename
but how can i get the same result in codeigniter Active Record
I tried this code
$this->db->select('NID, LEFT(BODY,10)');
$query = $this->db->get_where('tablename');
but not working
is it possible to make that in codeigniter Active Record ??
I've been able make it work in Codeigniter using a syntax like this:
$this->db->select('NID, LEFT(BODY,10) BODY', false);
$query = $this->db->get_where('tablename');
as stated in: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/201014/#940615
adding 'false' to select, avoids the automatic backtics
also, after left(BODY, 10), you must add the name the new chopped field will use:
select('NID, LEFT(BODY,10) BODY'
otherwise, Codeigniter will output an Undefined property error.
I hope it works!

I would like to filter the output of show tables.
The documentation has one example on how to do this using result_scan(last_query_id()), but for me the example does not work:
show tables;
select "schema_name", "name" as "table_name", "rows"
from table(result_scan(last_query_id()))
where "rows" = 0;
-- SQL compilation error: error line 1 at position 8 invalid identifier 'SCHEMA_NAME'
The column SCHEMA_NAME is actually in the output of show tables,
so I do not understand what is wrong.
Best,
Davide
Run the following on your account and see what it is set to:
show parameters like 'QUOTED_IDENTIFIERS_IGNORE_CASE';
If this is set to TRUE, then it is ignoring the quotes in your query, which will then uppercase the column names, which won't match to the lowercase names of the SHOW output.
To resolve for your own session, you can run the following:
ALTER SESSION SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIERS_IGNORE_CASE = False;
You can also change this at a user or account level, if you wish. Setting this value to TRUE isn't recommended for the reason that you are running into.
You can reference the filter column using $<col_n> syntax (#8 for rows).
Example:
show tables;
select *
from table(result_scan())
where $8 > 5
That being said, your query worked for me.
In the old cakePHP 2.X I used this statement:
$this->Products->query('TRUNCATE TABLE products;');
which was the only way I could get my ids reset to 1. Now in cakephp 3.X this does not seem to truncate the table at all.
I have tried:
deleteAll();
Which works but seems to always need a condition but most importantly does not reset the ID;
query()->delete()->execute();
Deletes everything but does not reset the ids.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this in Cakephp 3.2
Include "ConnectionManager" namespace in the controller
use Cake\Datasource\ConnectionManager;
Create connection string and execute query in your action
$connection = ConnectionManager::get('default');
$results = $connection->execute('TRUNCATE TABLE tableName');
The way you can execute arbitrary queries in CakePHP3 is:
$connection = \Cake\Datasource\ConnectionManager::get('default');
$connection->execute('TRUNCATE TABLE products');

I want to execute query in my yii2 application. I'm using PostgreSQl. There is a table called list inside the user schema. If I try to build any query it returns 1. My code is here:
$numUsers = Yii::$app->db->createCommand('
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "user"."list"
')->execute();
Please show me my mistake in the query above.
This is not related to the DB type in Yii2 if you want the result of a single value you should use queryScalar() instead of execute()
$numUsers = Yii::$app->db->createCommand('
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "user"."list" ')->queryScalar();
The question is as for delphi coders as for c++ builder coders, cuz I'm using the same components.
I'm trying to fill labels on the form by the data from database. I do a SELECT query via TADOQuery. But when I try to get a result, I always get an error like "ADOQuery1: Field 'count' not found".
'id' passed to the function is an autoincrement field value, which is EXACTLY exists in database (it was got via DBLookupComboBox). Also, executing the query manually to show result in DBGrid is successfull.
Querying without parameters and writing 'id' value to query string fails too.
What's the problem? Here's the code.
void TSellForm::LoadData(int id) {
TADOQuery* q = DataModule1->ADOQuery1;
q->Active = false;
try
{
q->SQL->Text = "select * from drugs where(id=:id)";
q->Parameters->ParamByName("id")->Value = IntToStr(id);
q->ExecSQL();
this->LabelAvail->Caption = q->FieldByName("count")->Value;
}
catch (Exception* e) {
MessageBox(NULL, PChar(WideString(e->Message)),
L"Exception", MB_OK|MB_ICONWARNING);
}
q->SQL->Clear();
}
ExecSQL is only used for SQL statements that don't return a recordset, and to determine the results you use RowsAffected.
For SELECT statements (which return a recordset), you use Open or set Active to true.
Also, count is a reserved word in most SQL dialects (as in SELECT Count(*) FROM ..., so if you have a column with that name you're going to need to escape it, typically by using either [] or double-quotes around it or by aliasing it in the SELECT itself.
ADOQuery1->Close();
ADOQuery1->SQL->Text= "SELECT * FROM reportTble WHERE (firstName =:firstName) " ;
ADOQuery1->Parameters->ParamByName("firstName")->Value = textBox->Text ;
ADOQuery1->Open();
This is how you can use ADOQuery
I'm having some trouble trying to set a 'WHERE field IN ...' clause in CodeIgniter using SQLite. I got an array of all where clause conditions called $conditions, and added the WHERE IN clause in this way:
$this->browse_model->conditions['username IN'] = "(SELECT like_to FROM likes WHERE like_from = '".$this->user->username."')";
and inside of my browse_model I use the following code to run the query:
$get = $this->db->get_where('users', $this->conditions, 6, $_SESSION['browse_page']*6);
but somehow when I use the condition I wrote above it is giving me the following error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function execute() on a non-object in
../www/system/database/drivers/pdo/pdo_driver.php on line 193
As far as I'm concerned the 'field IN array' statement is allowed in SQLite too, so I really don't know why this isn't working. Does anyone know how to make this work?
Thanks in advance!
Greets,
Skyfe.
EDIT: Tried setting the condition in the following way and didn't get an error but neither any results:
$this->browse_model->conditions['username'] = "IN (SELECT like_to FROM likes WHERE like_from = '".$this->user->username."')";
So I guess that's still not the correct way to do it..
EDIT2: 'Fixed' it, somehow it didn't interpetate the field => value way of notating the where clause correctly for the IN statement, so defined it in a custom string:
$this->browse_model->custom_condition = username IN (SELECT like_to FROM likes WHERE like_from = '".$this->user->username."')
Their is some problem in formatting IN clause,
SELECT * FROM users WHERE gender = 'f' AND gender_preference = 'm' AND username IN (SELECT like_to FROM likes WHERE like_from = 'testtest')
