Insert batch to MySQL with PHP/PDO - php

Question

I have an form for bulk add domains and these domains could have one or more countries and one language attribute.
My form (reduced to code):
Add domains:
<textarea name="bulk" rows="10" class="form-control no-resize"><?php echo $_POST['bulk']; ?></textarea>
Choose one or more countries:
<div class="checkbox">
<?php
if ($queries->query("SELECT * FROM countrycodes ORDER BY code ASC")) {
if ($queries->count() > 0) {
$contents = $queries->fetchAll();
foreach ($contents as $content) {
?>
<input type="checkbox" id="country_<?php echo $content->code; ?>" name="country[]" value="<?php echo $content->code; ?>" <?php if (in_array($content->code, $_POST['country'])) echo "checked = 'checked'"; ?> />
<label for="country_<?php echo $content->code; ?>"><?php echo $content->country; ?></label><br />
<?php }}} ?>
</div>
Choose the language:
<div class="radio">
<?php
if ($queries->query("SELECT * FROM langcodes ORDER BY code ASC")) {
if ($queries->count() > 0) {
$contents = $queries->fetchAll();
foreach ($contents as $content) {
?>
<input type="radio" name="lang" id="lang_<?php echo $content->code; ?>" value="<?php echo $content->code; ?>" <?php if ($content->code == $_POST['lang']) { ?>checked="" <?php } ?> />
<label for="lang_<?php echo $content->code; ?>"><?php echo $content->language; ?></label><br />
<?php }}} ?>
</div>
Get data from submit:
if (isset($_POST['addData'])) {
$doms = explode("\n", str_replace("\r", "", $_POST['bulk']));
$coun = implode(", ", $_POST['country']);
$lang = $_POST['lang'];
}
I found this one for bulk inserts:
$d = ['Osian', 'Williams', 1];
$data = array_fill(0, 1000, $d);
$db = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=MYDB','MYUSER','MYPASS');
$db->beginTransaction();
$stmt = $db->prepare('INSERT INTO members (firstname, surname, title) VALUES (?,?,?)');
for($i=0;$i<count($data);$i++) {
$stmt->execute($data[$i]);
}
$db->commit();
I have no idea, how to get my data (domains, countries, lang) working for this code.
And, I need to check if a domain is already in the db, but only, if the domain has the same language.
So, would be nice to get some help.

I found an solution. Was a bit confused at the beginning, how to add country and lang to the list of domains. But the country data and lang data are static - so I just need to loop through the domains.
That's my solution and it works:
if (isset($_POST['addData'])) {
$doms = explode("\n", str_replace("\r", "", $_POST['bulk']));
$coun = implode(", ", $_POST['country']);
$lang = $_POST['lang'];
$queries->transStart();
foreach ($doms as $dom) {
if ($queries->query("SELECT domain FROM websites WHERE domain = ? AND lang = ?", [$dom, $lang])) {
if ($queries->count() > 0) {
$infoBox = "error_duplicate";
} else {
$queries->query("INSERT INTO websites (domain, country, lang) VALUES (?,?,?)", [$dom, $coun, $lang]);
$infoBox = "success";
}
}
}
$queries->transStop();
}
