How to add geopoint array, via PDO to crate* - php

Question

I have crateio set up and it's working fine using the PDO class.
I'm, trying to get a set of geopoints into the db using binds.
I have tried foreach but doesn't seem to work, I've tried this - which also doesn't work.
The geopoint column is set to geo_point_array.
$route="[[30.33333, -6.13336],[30.33333, -6.13336]]";
$db = new Database;
$db->Query("insert into geopoints (id, longlat, name) values ('33',?,'pat')");
$db->bind(1, $route);
$db->execute();
How do I add this set of cordinates to the db?
Thanks

Answer 1

GeoPoint is not supported as a native type in Crate's PDO driver yet, however you can use an double ARRAY.
From the Crate documentation:
Columns with the geo_point are represented and inserted using a double
array in the following format: [lon_value, lat_value]
I also strongly recommend to do parameter substitution for the other values.
use Crate\PDO\PDO;
$route = [[30.33333, -6.13336], [30.33333, -6.13336]];
$db = new PDO('crate:...');
$stmt = $db->query("insert into geopoints (id, longlat, name) values (?, ?, ?)");
$stmt->bind(1, 33, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$stmt->bind(2, $route, PDO::PARAM_ARRAY);
$stmt->bind(3, 'pat', PDO::PARAM_STR);
$stmt->execute();

PDO::query returns PDOStatement:
$route="[[30.33333, -6.13336],[30.33333, -6.13336]]";
//If Dateabase is a sublcass of PDO
//$db = new Database;
$db = new PDO(...);
$stmt = $db->query("insert into geopoints (id, longlat, name) values ('33',?,'pat')");
$stmt->bind(1, $route, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$stmt->execute();
