I need help in ATK4 DSQL where i would like to retrieve only a specific set of rows from my Employee Model Table class, using a Dynamic SQL.
can i generate an SQL BETWEEN or an IN clause in my WHERE statement such that it would 'somehow' look like these constructs:
SQL 'IN':
SELECT id,fnm,lnm,bp FROM emp WHERE id IN (1,3,5,7,9,11);
$model=$this->add('Model_Employee');
$set=array(1,3,5,7,9,11);
$list=$mode->dsql()
->field('id')
->field('fnm') // first name
->field('lnm') // last name
->field('bp') // basic pay
->where('id in (%l)',$set) // only 1,3,5,7,9 & 11
->do_getAll();
SQL 'BETWEEN':
SELECT id,fnm,lnm,bp FROM emp WHERE bp BETWEEN 3000 AND 5000;
$model=$this->add('Model_Employee');
$min=3000;$max=5000;
$range=$mode->dsql()
->field('id')
->field('fnm') // first name
->field('lnm') // last name
->field('bp') // basic pay
->where('bp between %i and %i',$min,$max)
->do_getAll();
thanks!
Updated for current version of DSQL: http://git.io/dsql
From the documentation:
$query -> where('time', $query->expr(
'between [] and []',
[$from, $to]
));
Old answer: in Agile Toolkit up to 4.1.* "where" is very limited to expressions. You would need to write it like this:
->where('bp between '.
$this->api->db->escape($min).' and '.
$this->api->db->escape($max));
