Doctrine 2: Update query with query builder

Question

Hi I\'ve got the following query but it doesn\'t seem to work.

$q = $this->em->createQueryBuilder()
    ->update(\'models\\User\', \'u\')
    ->s         


        

Answer 1

Let's say there is an administrator dashboard where users are listed with their id printed as a data attribute so it can be retrieved at some point via JavaScript.

An update could be executed this way …

class UserRepository extends \Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository
{
    public function updateUserStatus($userId, $newStatus)
    {
        return $this->createQueryBuilder('u')
            ->update()
            ->set('u.isActive', '?1')
            ->setParameter(1, $qb->expr()->literal($newStatus))
            ->where('u.id = ?2')
            ->setParameter(2, $qb->expr()->literal($userId))
            ->getQuery()
            ->getSingleScalarResult()
        ;
    }

AJAX action handling:

# Post datas may be:
# handled with a specific custom formType — OR — retrieved from request object
$userId = (int)$request->request->get('userId');
$newStatus = (int)$request->request->get('newStatus');
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$r = $em->getRepository('NAMESPACE\User')
        ->updateUserStatus($userId, $newStatus);
if ( !empty($r) ){
    # Row updated
}

Working example using Doctrine 2.5 (on top of Symfony3).

I think you need to use Expr with ->set() (However THIS IS NOT SAFE and you shouldn't do it):

$qb = $this->em->createQueryBuilder();
$q = $qb->update('models\User', 'u')
        ->set('u.username', $qb->expr()->literal($username))
        ->set('u.email', $qb->expr()->literal($email))
        ->where('u.id = ?1')
        ->setParameter(1, $editId)
        ->getQuery();
$p = $q->execute();

It's much safer to make all your values parameters instead:

$qb = $this->em->createQueryBuilder();
$q = $qb->update('models\User', 'u')
        ->set('u.username', '?1')
        ->set('u.email', '?2')
        ->where('u.id = ?3')
        ->setParameter(1, $username)
        ->setParameter(2, $email)
        ->setParameter(3, $editId)
        ->getQuery();
$p = $q->execute();

With a small change, it worked fine for me

$qb=$this->dm->createQueryBuilder('AppBundle:CSSDInstrument')
               ->update()
               ->field('status')->set($status)
               ->field('id')->equals($instrumentId)
               ->getQuery()
               ->execute();
