When I need to loop over something while generating a query from each element, I would use something like
$queryStr = "INSERT INTO tableName (x,y) VALUES ";
for ($i = 0 ; $i < $len ; $i++)
{
$queryStr .= "( ".$thing[$i]['x'].", ".$thing[$i]['b']."), ";
}
//extra code to remove the last comma from string
Would there be an alternative? I don't mind performance too much (knowing the length of the array is not too big), just something that looks nicer.
Using a prepared statement:
$sql = 'INSERT INTO tableName (x, y) VALUES (:x, :y)';
$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql);
for ($i = 0 ; $i < $len ; $i++)
{
$sth->execute(array(
':x' => $thing[$i]['x'],
':y' => $thing[$i]['b']));
}

A slight improvement to get rid of last part (removing latest comma). You can first create an array of values, then use implode function like:
$queryStr = "INSERT INTO tableName (x,y) VALUES ";
for ($i = 0 ; $i < $len ; $i++)
{
$values[] = "( ".$thing[$i]['x'].", ".$thing[$i]['b'].")";
}
$queryStr .= implode(',', $values);
I like using array_walk
and implode
for things like this:
$values = array(
array(1, 2, 3),
array(4, 5, 6),
. . .
);
// an array to hold the values to insert
$query = array();
// walk the values and build the query array
array_walk($values, function($v) use(&$query) {
$query[] = "(" . implode(", ", $v) . ")";
});
// dump the output
echo implode(", ", $query);
The result looks like this:
(1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), ...
Maybe not much cleaner, but at least it gets rid of the for
loop :-)
You could use implode()
with array_map()
:
implode(', ', array_map(function($v) { return '(' . $v['x'] . ', ' . $v['b'] . ')'; }, $things));
$strCols = '`'.implode('`, `',array_keys($arrValues)).'`'; //Sets the array keys passed in $arrValues up as column names
if ($bolEscape){ //Checks if $bolEscape is true
$arrValues = $this->escape($arrValues); //Calls the escape function
$strValues = '"'.implode('","',array_values($arrValues)).'"'; //Sets the array values passed in $arrValues up as data for the columns
}else{
$strValues = '"'.implode('","',array_values($arrValues)).'"'; //Sets the array values passed in $arrValues up as data for the columns WITHOUT escaping
}
//Creates the SQL statement for the query
$strSQL = 'INSERT INTO `' . $strTable . '` (' . $strCols . ') VALUES (' . $strValues . ')';
Thats part of the database class I have written... I pass in the arrValues ('ColumnName'=>'Value')
