Replace Into blanking some fields

I have an insert function that is updating the records that i change fine - id is the key.

if (isset($_POST['updateConsumablePrice'])) {
        for ($i = 0; $i < count($_POST['minQty']); $i++) {
            $cpId = $_POST['cpId'][$i];
            $minQty = $_POST['minQty'][$i];
            $maxQty = $_POST['maxQty'][$i];
            $GBP = $_POST['GBP'][$i];
            $USD = $_POST['USD'][$i];
            $CAD = $_POST['CAD'][$i];
            $EUR = $_POST['EUR'][$i];

            $sql = "REPLACE INTO consumable_price (id, min_qty, max_qty, GBP, USD, CAD, EUR) 
                    VALUES (:cpId, :minQty, :maxQty, :GBP, :USD, :CAD, :EUR)";
            $stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
            $stmt->execute([
                ':cpId' => $cpId,
                ':minQty' => $minQty,
                ':maxQty' => $maxQty,
                ':GBP' => $GBP,
                ':USD' => $USD,
                ':CAD' => $CAD,
                ':EUR' => $EUR  
            ]);
        }
    }

The issue that i have is that one of my columns which should not be being touched by this insert is being blanked to zero.

Is there something obvious that i am doing wrong or a better way of doing this?

From the documentation -

Quote

Values for all columns are taken from the values specified in the REPLACE statement. Any missing columns are set to their default values, just as happens for INSERT.

updateConsumablePrice

it seems like you should be using an UPDATE query for this operation?

Thank you for this.

I am updating but there is also the option on the page to add new data.

I was torn between ON DUPLICATE KEY or REPLACE INTO.

I dont know if one of these is better than the other.

My understanding is that REPLACE will always create a new record (and therefore setting default values). INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY will insert only when the record does not exist and update specified fields when it does. I'd go for the latter in this case.

Experimentation is good. Try out a test.

I am not sure why my code here is not working - but its not.

 

This is what happens when i echo $_POST

array(11) {
  ["itemName"]=>
  string(23) "Large Format RFID Cards"
  ["itemCategory"]=>
  string(1) "4"
  ["chargeBy"]=>
  string(1) "1"
  ["minQty"]=>
  array(7) {

  ["EUR"]=>
  array(7) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "0"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "0"
    [2]=>
    string(1) "0"
    [3]=>
    string(1) "0"
    [4]=>
    string(1) "0"

    string(1) "6"
    [6]=>
    string(1) "7"
  }
  ["updateConsumablePrice"]=>
  string(0) ""
}

And this is the php

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
    if (isset($_POST['updateConsumablePrice'])) {
		$sql = "INSERT INTO consumable_price (min_qty, max_qty, GBP, USD, CAD, EUR) 
                    VALUES (:minQty, :maxQty, :GBP, :USD, :CAD, :EUR)
                    ON DUPLICATE KEY 
                    UPDATE min_qty = :minQty, max_qty = :maxQty, GBP = :GBP, USD = :USD, CAD = :CAD, EUR = :EUR";
            $stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
        for ($i = 0; $i < count($_POST['minQty']); $i++) {
            $minQty = $_POST['minQty'][$i];
            $maxQty = $_POST['maxQty'][$i];
            $GBP = $_POST['GBP'][$i];
            $USD = $_POST['USD'][$i];
            $CAD = $_POST['CAD'][$i];
            $EUR = $_POST['EUR'][$i];

            
            $stmt->execute([
                ':minQty' => $minQty,
                ':maxQty' => $maxQty,
                ':GBP' => $GBP,
                ':USD' => $USD,
                ':CAD' => $CAD,
                ':EUR' => $EUR  
            ]);
        }
    }
}

The post is happening but no new data is going in and changes are not being made.

There are no errors shown.

As the term would hopefully suggest, ON DUPLICATE KEY requires that you have a unique (or primary) key in your field list. That's how it knows there's a duplicate: you tried to insert something that exists. If you don't include any keys then you're simply going to insert new data.

I'm inclined to think that your min_qty, max_qty, and currency fields are not part of a unique key.

Put the ID back.

None of this helps me to understand why your form, which is clearly designed around editing an existing ID, will ever have to deal with a situation where the data to be edited does not exist yet.

So this

if (isset($_POST['updateConsumablePrice'])) {
		$sql = "INSERT INTO consumable_price (id, min_qty, max_qty, GBP, USD, CAD, EUR) 
                    VALUES (:cpId, :minQty, :maxQty, :GBP, :USD, :CAD, :EUR)
                    ON DUPLICATE KEY 
                    UPDATE min_qty = :minQty, max_qty = :maxQty, GBP = :GBP, USD = :USD, CAD = :CAD, EUR = :EUR";
            $stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
        for ($i = 0; $i < count($_POST['minQty']); $i++) {
			$cpId = $_POST['cpId'][$i];
            $minQty = $_POST['minQty'][$i];
            $maxQty = $_POST['maxQty'][$i];
            $GBP = $_POST['GBP'][$i];
            $USD = $_POST['USD'][$i];
            $CAD = $_POST['CAD'][$i];
            $EUR = $_POST['EUR'][$i];

            
            $stmt->execute([
				':cpId' => $cpId,
                ':minQty' => $minQty,
                ':maxQty' => $maxQty,
                ':GBP' => $GBP,
                ':USD' => $USD,
                ':CAD' => $CAD,
                ':EUR' => $EUR  
            ]);
        }
    }

is now working for the updates.

But it is not adding a new item.

Again, the screen reloads but nothing happens in the database.

 

For reference of what i am doing i have attached a screen shot.

You can add a new line to add another breakpoint

Try setting the cpId value to either 0 or NULL for new items.

It would appear that you are not setting the EMULATE_PREPARES option to "false" in your connection code on leaving it as "true" (default). Set it to false so prepared queries are truly prepared.

Note that with true prepares you will not be able to use execute array elements multiple times (eg ":minQty" appears twice in the query but only once in the array). Rewrite the query as

INSERT INTO consumable_price (id, min_qty, max_qty, GBP, USD, CAD, EUR) 
VALUES (:cpId, :minQty, :maxQty, :GBP, :USD, :CAD, :EUR)
ON DUPLICATE KEY 
UPDATE min_qty = VALUES(minQty)
     , max_qty = VALUES(maxQty)
     , GBP = VALUES(GBP)
     , USD = VALUES(USD)
     , CAD = VALUES(CAD)
     , EUR = VALUES(EUR); 

to re-use the values.

i have set the emulate in the connection file to

$pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, false);

and have used the query

if (isset($_POST['updateConsumablePrice'])) {

			 , USD = VALUES(USD)
			 , CAD = VALUES(CAD)
			 , EUR = VALUES(EUR)";
            $stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
        for ($i = 0; $i < count($_POST['minQty']); $i++) {
			$cpId = $_POST['cpId'][$i];
            $minQty = $_POST['minQty'][$i];
            $maxQty = $_POST['maxQty'][$i];
            $GBP = $_POST['GBP'][$i];
            $USD = $_POST['USD'][$i];
            $CAD = $_POST['CAD'][$i];
            $EUR = $_POST['EUR'][$i];

            
            $stmt->execute([
				':cpId' => $cpId,
                ':minQty' => $minQty,
                ':maxQty' => $maxQty,
                ':GBP' => $GBP,
                ':USD' => $USD,

                ':EUR' => $EUR  
            ]);
        }
    }

I am now getting the error

I thought they might need the ":" infront of them but that gives me

Can you show us the output from this query?

show create table consumable_price;

P.S.

Looks like you need to set another PDO option on connecting...

$pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

 

I have that in already - hopefully correctly.

try {
    $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host={$host_name}; dbname={$database}", $user_name, $password);
    $pdo-> exec("SET time_zone='+01:00';");
    $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
    $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_DEFAULT_FETCH_MODE, PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
    $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, false);
    // echo "Connected successfully";
  } catch(PDOException $e) {
    echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage();
  }

You have omitted item_id from your query.

I created your table and ran a test...

 

of course you are right.  Thanks as always.

if (isset($_POST['updateConsumablePrice'])) {
