I would like to get last inserted id after $wpdb->insert().I got a solution with $wpdb->insert_id(); but unfortunately which retrieves the primary key plus an additional zero.
ie, consider my primary key (or inserted id) is 2 $wpdb->insert_id(); retruns 20 .whats wrong with this method?anybody can please help me.
The insert_id is a property, not a method. Try it without the () at the end, see what you get.

In odoo every model will be having a write_date column which will store the last edited time and date of the record.I want to take the value of that field to a variable/ field. But when I print this , it is printing False . What to do.?
code
variable = self.write_date
Thanks in Advance..
The problem is that you're getting in self a new recordset (odoo.models.NewId object at 0x7fe0c05717d0). Therefore, you're trying to get the write_date of a record which has not been created yet. If the record has never been updated (even not created), it's not going to have a value in write_date.
Remember that write_date stores the latest date in which the record was updated.
So, first, at least, you must create the record, and then, you will be able to apply this: variable = self.write_date.
But take a look at this:
What's happening with these transient models' IDs?
May be you get the write_date without creating the record, give a try to this: variable = self._origin.write_date.
Even though we can see a field named write_date in the table, First of all, what we have to do is that you have to add a field named write_date into your model and then try the same.
write_date = fields.Datetime(string='Write Date') solved my problem.Thanks everyone for helping.
I'm using the new gcloud-java API (https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-java/tree/master/gcloud-java-datastore/src/main/java/com/google/cloud/datastore) for working with the Cloud Datastore. My specific question is on using GQL for pagination with cursors. I was able to page through the results one page at a time in the forward direction using cursors, but not having any luck with paging backwards.
Example Scenario:
Let's say I've 20 entities in a Kind with IDs 1 through 20. I have a page size of 5. Once I'm on the 3rd page (IDs 11 through 15), if I need to go one page back; i.e. retrieve IDs 6 through 10, what would be the correct GQL/sample code? Again, I prefer not to use offset with a number, but would like to use Cursors.
From what I can tell (actually tested), it looks like one needs to keep track of Start/End cursors for each page as they navigate in the forward direction, then use the saved cursors when there is a need to go back. I just want to make sure if this is the correct/only way or there is a simpler way to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance for your help.
If you add to your original query a sort by key (appended to the end of your "order by" clause), you should be able to reverse each property's sort order and use the latest cursor from your original query to get results in reverse.
Suppose you've iterated through some of the values from your forward query's QueryResults. You can call QueryResults's cursorAfter() method, which will return a cursor pointing right after the last result you saw from your original query. Now you can issue a new query (with the opposite sort order on each property, including the key property) using that cursor as the start cursor. You'll probably want to skip the first result, since it will be the last result you saw from the original query.
I have been reading around and just havent found any type of answer.
I have a multiple select list and need to take the the values of the multiple select and pass them to an API call.
But I dont understand how drupal renders the multiple select list and how to habdle this.
Can someone please explain this to me or if you have come across any docs that explain this, please point me in the right direction.
Also, when I try to write the select to the db, I always get a the value 1... never changes...
Any help is appreciated :)
Solved:
The Multiple select is stored in an associative array where the key value pair are taken from the key value of the list, this means that both the key and value get the same value.
I did this by using devels dvm(); function which displays the array in the message area after the node was saved.
You have been so helpful in the past that I keep coming back searching for help and learning.
This time I am trying to get all products that have a quantity greater than 1 and that are in stock (is_in_stock = 1)
$products = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();
//$products->addAttributeToSelect('*');
//SELECT `e`.*, `stock`.`qty` FROM `catalog_product_entity` AS `e` LEFT JOIN `cataloginventory_stock_item` AS `stock` ON stock.product_id = e.entity_id
$products->getSelect()->joinLeft(
array('stock'=>'cataloginventory_stock_item'),
'stock.product_id = e.entity_id',
array('stock.qty', 'stock.is_in_stock')
);
This returns qty and is_in_stock columns attached to the products table. You can test it as follows:
$products->getFirstItem()->getQty();
$products->getFirstItem()->getIsInStock();
The issue begins when I try to filter by qty and is_in_stock.
$products->addFieldToFilter(array(
array('Qty','gt'=>'0'),
array('Is_in_stock','eq'=>'1'),
));
This returns - Invalid attribute name never performing filtering. I am guessing it is trying search for e.qty but cannot find it.
So, I tried to filter differently:
$products->getSelect()->where("`qty` > 0");
$products->getSelect()->where("`is_in_stock` = 1");
This is not filtering as well even though, if you look at its sql query, (var_dump((string) $products->getSelect())), and run that query in phpMyAdmin, it works.
Alan Storm in his tutorial mentions that 'The database query will not be made until you attempt to access an item in the Collection'. So, I make the $products->getFirstItem() call but it still not executing the query or filtering in another words.
What am I doing wrong? Any ideas how to filter by attributes that are joined to the table?
Thank you again,
Margots
I would suggest that you try using $products->addAttributeToFilter... instead of $products->addFieldToFilter... - the addField method only works when the field is on the main table that you are querying (in this case catalog_product_entity). Because the inventory fields are in a joined table, you need to use addAttribute.
Hope this helps,
JD
After looking under the hood I learned that _selectAttributes instance field was not assigned in Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Collection_Abstract class and that is why get exception. A solution usually would be what Jonathan Day suggested above - add addAttributeToFilter() method, however. It will return error since it cannot find such attribute for catalog/product. (qty and in_invetory are in cataloginventory_stock_item). I found two solutions to my problem both required going different direction:
One involved pursuing a way to query the Select statement that I had set for product collection(see above) but somehow it was not resetting the collection with new product. WhenI copied that Sql statment in phpMyAdmin, it worked, so how to query that statement from product collection:
$stmt = $products->getConnection('core_write')->query($products->getSelect()->__toString());
while($rows = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){
echo "<br>Product Id ".$rows['entity_id'];
}
Instead of using catalog/product entity table I used the flat table - cataloginventory_stock_item to accomplish the same thing
$stockItem = new Mage_CatalogInventory_Model_Stock_Item();
$stockItems->addQtyFilter('>',0);
$stockItems->addFieldToFilter('is_in_stock',array('eq'=>'1'));
Now there is a collection of all products with qty > 0 and that are in stock.
I have a table that contains three columns.
"UserId" type-nvarchar
"PostAuthorId" type-nvarchar
"Post" type-text
This table will contain "wall" posts like in facebook for each user's page. I am going to use a gridview on each user's page to display the posts. The issue is I want to display them with the latest(most current) post being first and the earliest post being last.
I have never used autoincrement before and I am not sure if that is the answer. If it is, I do not know how to use it. I thought about adding a date posted column and then ordering by date.
If I end up using the date column, I could also display the date on the post. Is there a way to convert the date to a readable format?
What is the best way of implementing this type of ordering?
If you use AutoIcrement the first record will start with 1 and each record will increment from there. (default setting)
If you want to sort them by newest first do an ORDER BY ID DESC
I would suggest making a column called wallPostID then setting that to AutoIncrement and also your Primary Key
Date Formating:
If you are displaying this data in a gridView
Go to Edit Columns on your grid view
CLick on the Date field under "Selected Fields" on the bottom left
Under "BoundField properties" on the right Go to Data -> DataFormatString
{0:d} will display as 1/1/2010
This site has more info in string formatting
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fht0f5be.aspx
A datetime column would definitely work for something like this. Assuming you are using MS-SQL, you can also attach a default value to the column using a built-in function like GETDATE(). That way, you only have to input the data that matters and the database will take care of adding the datetime column.
For converting a datetime to a readable format try:
DateTime postDate;
string value = postDate.ToShortDateString();
You should always use an ID field that auto increments. Can also be used as your PK
I would suggest the DateTime field rather than the autoincrement simply because it will not only serve as an effective Sort field, it also preserves information that you may well want to display. If you want the most recent first you'll sort using the Date and a "DESC" modifier:
Select ... Order By [Date] DESC;
When you retrieve the data, you can retrieve it as a DateTime and modify it using C#. You can use "ToShortDateString()" as suggested by mdresser if you just wish to show the date or ToString("...") if you wish to show the time as well. You can also use SQL to convert it into a string before retrieving it:
convert(Varchar(10), #mydatetime, 101)
If you look in MSDN you'll see the various conversion codes (101 is the code used above) that can be used to translate the date in various ways.
UPDATE: You may want to use an autoincrementing field for your application for reasons other than your expressed need to sort wall entries. They are easy to use - just mark the field as an Identity if using SQL Server (other DBs are similar). As far as using them in your program, just think of the field as an Int field that you never have to set.
Now, why would you use a auto-incrementing field? Perhaps the most straightforward reason is so that they give you have an easy way to identify each record. For example, if you permit people to alter or delete their wall entries, the auto-incrementing field is ideal as it gives you a way to easily look up each record (each record will be assigned its own, unique value). You might put an "x" next to the record like StackOverflow does and make it a call back with the UID (auto-increment) value. Note that you should set up your primary key on the UID field if you'll be doing this.
Now, if you find them useful for this reason then you could also sort by the UID. I would still store the date so that you can provide Date and Time feedback as to when an entry was made on the wall but this would no longer be your indexed or sorted field.
