I have the following sql script:
CREATE TABLE `akalogixDB`.`users` (
`user_id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY ,
`priv_id` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT '3',
`username` VARCHAR( 40 ) NOT NULL ,
`password` VARCHAR( 40 ) NOT NULL ,
`email` VARCHAR( 40 ) NOT NULL ,
`first_name` VARCHAR( 40 ) NULL ,
`last_name` VARCHAR( 40 ) NULL ,
`avatar` VARCHAR( 100 ) NULL DEFAULT 'images/avatars/no_avatar.jpg',
`mini_avatar` VARCHAR( 100 ) NULL DEFAULT 'images/avatars/no_avatar_mini.jpg',
`about` TEXT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NULL ,
`user_folder` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT ====> #here is the problem
UNIQUE (
`username` ,
`email`)
) ENGINE = MYISAM ;
I would like to give the default value for user_folder the following: 'users/folders/'+user_id + current timestamp How can I do this, I know that I can do it with PHP, but is there way of doing with sql instructions.
You could use a trigger. Something like:
CREATE TRIGGER `before_users_insert`
BEFORE INSERT ON `users` FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF NEW.user_folder IS NULL THEN
SET NEW.user_folder = CONCAT('users/folders/',NEW.user_id, UNIX_TIMESTAMP());
END IF;
END
You'd need to figure out what value would trigger your default value as a NULL (as I've coded it) may not work because you have a NOT NULL on that column. It's a sound approach though and I hope this gives you the general idea.
What you'll need is a triger: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/create-trigger.html try something like this:
create trigger t_users_bi
before insert on users
for each row BEGIN
SET new.user_folder = CONCAT('users/folders/', new.user_id, current_timestamp);
END;
