合并$ query-> result（）和数组codeigniter的结果

Question

I have an sql query which returns values. I would want to add new values with keys so that I can use it to my next controller which is these values doesn't come from the query result.

My Model:

$paymentDetails = $this->db->query($sql);
$payments = $paymentDetails->result();

//these are the values I wanted to add to the result for the $payments
$amountDue = 'Sample';
$change = 'Sample';

$result = array_merge($payments,  array(
                "AmountDue" => $amountDue,
                "Change" => $change
            ));
if($result){
    return $result;
}else{
    return false;
}

I wonder why array_merge() doesn't work. In my view, values fetched from the SQL Query did returned, but the added (AmountDue and Change) is not found.

Please help me. Thank you so much! Ya'll be a big help for my project. :)

Answer 1

because result() function returns the query result as an array of objects, or an empty array on failure. It is just an alias of result_object().

You have to use result_array() which returns the query result as a pure array.

I hope this will help you.
