On my models I try to write a php model that will get me a associative array from a database. But I don't quite know how to approach this. So after I execute this SQL query:
SELECT balance_events.weight,balance_events.added_date,
balance_entries.mid FROM balance_events, balance_entries
WHERE balance_entries.added_date BETWEEN '2016-08-02' AND '2016-08-03'
AND balance_entries.ptid =12
AND balance_entries.beid = balance_events.id
I will get this table:
And from that table I want to extract a asociative array that it will look like this:
count = ['13'=>1, '6'=>4, '16'=>3, '4'=>3]
where 'mid'=>number
of how many times that mid
can be found in the table. ex. mid '13'=>1
cause you can found it only once.
I think that I will have to use SQL COUNT function, but how I can aggregate all of this in a PHP model in codeigniter? I know how to configure controller and view, but I don't know how to actually do the actual php model that will get me the desired array.
Try this query may help you ,
$result = $this->db->select('balance_events.weight,balance_events.added_date,COUNT(balance_entries.mid) as mid_count')
->from('balance_events, balance_entries')
->where('balance_entries.added_date BETWEEN "2016-08-02" AND "2016-08-03" ')
->where('balance_entries.ptid','12')
->where('balance_entries.beid','balance_events.id')
->group_by('balance_entries.mid')
->get();
return $result->result_array();
I'm not sure how you would create this in SQL but since you tagged php, I wrote a function that would do just this.
<?php
$query = array(array("mid"=>13), array("mid"=>2), array("mid"=>13), array("mid" =>6), array("mid" => 13), array("mid" => 6));
function createMidArray($queryResult){
$returnArray = array();
foreach ($queryResult as $qr){
$returnArray[$qr['mid']]++;
}
return $returnArray;
}
print_r(createMidArray($query));
?>
The output of this was Array ( [13] => 3 [2] => 1 [6] => 2 )
which matches up to my inputted $query (which is a 2D array). I'm expecting the output of your query is stored in a similar array, but with more data and keys
