January 8, 2023

I have a database , that cantain about 10 column. each column should get values from seprate json file. how i can do that at same time?

for example :

column1 ------ file1.json
column2 ------ file2.json
column3 ------ file3.json
column4 ------ file4.json

my php code is something like this:

<?php


    //connect to mysql db
    $con = mysql_connect("username","password","") or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
    //connect to the employee database
    mysql_select_db("employee", $con);

    //read the json file contents
    $jsondata = file_get_contents('file1.json');
    
    //convert json object to php associative array
    $data = json_decode($jsondata, true);
    
    //get the employee details
    $firstcolumn = $data['sample-column'];
  

    
    //insert into mysql table
    $sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_emp(sample-column, )
    VALUES('$id', ')";
    if(!mysql_query($sql,$con))
    {
        die('Error : ' . mysql_error());
    }
?>

I dont have any result

>Solution :

You can use a loop to read each file and insert the data into the database. Here is an example of how this can be done using PHP:

<?php
//connect to mysql db
$con = mysql_connect("username","password","") or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
//connect to the employee database
mysql_select_db("employee", $con);

//Loop through the files
$files = array('file1.json', 'file2.json', 'file3.json', 'file4.json');
foreach($files as $file) {
//read the json file contents
$jsondata = file_get_contents($file);

//convert json object to php associative array
$data = json_decode($jsondata, true);

//get the employee details
$columnData = $data['sample-column'];

//insert into mysql table
$sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_emp(sample-column) VALUES('$columnData')";
if(!mysql_query($sql,$con)) {
    die('Error : ' . mysql_error());
 }
}
?>

I hope this answer helps.
