Storing array values in he database using php? - php

Question

I am trying to create an php script which can read and array list from android and read it's element and store it in data base, now I have been able to store the data in an text file but unable to proceed further, could some body help me out in this matter?
this is the php script which I have used:-
<?php
$i=0;
$password="";
$user="root";
$database="shadowpets";
$host="localhost";
$response=array();
$con=mysqli_connect($host,$user,$password,$database)or die("Unable to connect");
if($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"]=="POST"){
if(isset($_POST['OrderSummary'])){
$data=$_POST['OrderSummary'];
$file='text.txt';
$result=file_put_contents($file,$data);
$response["success"]=1;
$response["message"]="done";
}else{
$response["success"]=0;
$response["message"]="parameters not correctly formatted";
}
echo json_encode($response);
}
?>
what changes I can do here, so I can read the data store it in the database?

First, you need to set up a database and a table in a database server (MySQL).
Then you can create an insert statement like below, bind its parameters and execute it.
if (!($statement = $con->prepare('INSERT INTO `your_table` (`OrderSummary`) VALUES (?)'))) {
die('Could not prepare statement: (' . $con->errno . ') ' . $con->error);
}
if (!$statement->bind_param('s', $_POST['OrderSummary'])) {
die('Could not bind parameter: (' . $statement->errno . ') ' . $statement->error);
}
if (!$statement->execute()) {
die('Could not execute statement: (' . $statement->errno . ') ' . $statement->error);
}
