For example,a table named ‘testdata‘ with the following fields:-
id : int, auto increment, primary key
firstname: varchar
lastname: varchar
Lets take a module named 'test'. Below is the code to select, insert, update, and delete data from the ‘testdata‘ table.
TO INSERT DATA
$data have array of data to be inserted. The key of the array should be the database table’s field name and the value should be the value to be inserted.
$data = array('firstname'=>'rajesh','lastname'=>'nautiyal');
$model = Mage::getModel(test/test)->setData($data);
$model->save();
TO SELECT DATA
$testData = Mage::getModel(test/test)->load(2);
$testData->getData();
It will prints array of data for id=2 from ‘testData’ table.
$testData->getFirstname() prints the only the firstname field.
Similarly, to print lastname, $testData->getLastname().
$model = Mage::getModel('test/test');
$collection = $model->getCollection();
foreach($collection as $testData){
print_r($testData->getData());
print_r($testData->getFirstname());
}
TO UPDATE DATA
$id is the database table row id to be updated.
$data contains array of data to be updated. The key of the array should be the database table’s field name and the value should be the value to be updated.
$id = 11;
$data = array('firstname'=>'Raj','lastname'=>'naughty');
$model = Mage::getModel('test/test')->load($id)->addData($data);
$model->setId($id)->save();
TO DELETE DATA
$id is the database table row id to be deleted.
// $id = $this->getRequest()->getParam('id');
$id = 13;
$model = Mage::getModel('test/test');
$model->setId($id)->delete();
Like this way we can select, insert, update and delete data in tables in our new module and in any magento code.
