Codeigniter - Batch Update with Multiple Where Conditions

Question

For starters, the Codeigniter documentation on update_batch does not exist. kenjis was kind enough to provide some documentation and submit it to the repository. Hopefully t

Answer 1

I am using codeigniter 3.1.5 and had the same problem, but I solved my problem as follows:

$data = array(
    array(
        'title' => 'My title' ,
        'name' => 'My Name 2' ,
        'date' => 'My date 2'
    ),
    array(
        'title' => 'Another title' ,
        'name' => 'Another Name 2' ,
        'date' => 'Another date 2'
    )
);

$this->db->where('name','My Name 2');
$this->db->update_batch('mytable', $data, 'title');

Produces it:

// Produces:
// UPDATE `mytable`
// SET `name` = CASE
//     WHEN `title` = 'Another title' THEN 'Another Name 2'
//     WHEN `title` = 'My title' THEN 'My Name 2'
//     ELSE `name`
// END,
//     `date` = CASE 
//     WHEN `title` = 'My title' THEN 'My date 2'
//     WHEN `title` = 'Another title' THEN 'Another date 2'
//     ELSE `date`
// END
//     WHERE `title` IN ('My title','Another title')
// AND `name` = 'My Name 2'

UPDATE

I had a problem trying to add more than 100 records with update_batch, for example:

$data = [1=>a,2=>b ... 200=>zz];

First call (with WHERE):

// Produces:
// UPDATE `mytable`
// SET `name` = CASE
//    WHEN `title` = 'My title' THEN 'My Name 2'
//    WHEN `title` = 'Another title' THEN 'Another Name 2'
//    ELSE `name`
// END,
//  `date` = CASE 
//    WHEN `title` = 'My title' THEN 'My date 2'
//    WHEN `title` = 'Another title' THEN 'Another date 2'
//    ELSE `date`
// END
//    WHERE `title` IN ('My title','Another title')
//    AND `name` = 'My Name 2'

Second call on (Without WHERE):

// Produces:
// UPDATE `mytable`
// SET `name` = CASE
//      WHEN `title` = 'My title' THEN 'My Name 2'
//      WHEN `title` = 'Another title' THEN 'Another Name 2'
//      ELSE `name`
// END,
//      `date` = CASE 
//      WHEN `title` = 'My title' THEN 'My date 2'
//      WHEN `title` = 'Another title' THEN 'Another date 2'
//      ELSE `date`
// END
//      WHERE `title` IN ('My title','Another title')

Try this:

$chunk1 = array_chunk($data,100);
for($i=0;$i < count($chunk1);$i++) {
   $this->upload_model->update_data($chunk1[$i],'My Name 2');
}

Model:

public function update_data($data='',$name=''){
   $this->db->where('name',$name);
   $this->db->update_batch('mytable', $data, 'title');
}
