Two different functions one works one calls a non-object - php

I have two functions getCompanyDetails and getHostingDetails
The first database getCompanyDetails works fine but the getHostingDetails shows
Trying to get property of non-object
getCompanyDetails:
Controller: $data['companyName'] = $this->quote->getCompanyDetails()->companyName;
Model:
public function getCompanyDetails()
{
$this->db->select('companyName,companySlogan,companyContact,
companyEmail,companyWebsite,companyPhone,
companyFax,companyAddress');
$this->db->from('companyDetails');
$result = $this->db->get();
if($result->num_rows()<1)
{
return FALSE;
}else{
return $result->row();
}
}
getHostingDetails:
Controller:
$data['hostingRequired'] = $this->quote->getHostingDetails()->hostingRequired;
Model:
public function getHostingDetails()
{
$this->db->select('hostingRequired,domainRequired,domainToBeReged,
domaintoBeReged0,domainTransfer,domainToBeTransfered,
domainToBeTransfered0,currentHosting');
$this->db->from('hostingDetails');
$result = $this->db->get();
if($result->num_rows()<1)
{
return FALSE;
}else{
return $result->row();
}
}

Well, one method returns an object from $result->row() and the other false. You can't call a method on false.
false is returned when no record is found. So you need to check the return value before using it.

Well in your get functions chances is your code might return you false if there is no rows returned. You might want to check before retrieving the details. Example:
$details = $this->quote->getHostingDetails();
if($details){
$data['hostingRequired'] = $details->hostingRequired;
}

The problem is probably how you use those functions in your controller. If any of them returns FALSE, then
$this->quote->getHostingDetails()->hostingRequired;
is going to give you errors. Try
if ($row = $this->quote->getHostingDetails()) {
echo $row->hostingRequired;
}

Laravel query returns builder instead of collection

I am new to laravel and trying to have a result.
My code is this:
class GegonosController extends Controller
{
public function index($gid = null, $cid = null, $nid = null)
{
if (is_null($cid) and is_null($nid) and is_null($gid)) {
$gegon = Gegono::orderBy('created_at','desc')->get();
}
else{
if(!is_null($gid)) {
if($gid == 0) {
$gegon = Gegono::where('gegtype_id','>',1);
}
else{
$gegon = Gegono::where('gegtype_id', '=', $gid);
}
}
else {
$gegon = Gegono::where('gegtype_id','>',0);
}
if (!is_null($cid)) {
$gegon->where('city_id', '=',$cid);
}
if (!is_null($nid)) {
$gegon->where('nomos_id','=', $nid);
}
$gegon->orderBy('created_at','desc')->get();
}
$nomoi = \App\Nomoi::orderby('name')->get();
return view('front.gegonota', compact('gegon','gid','cid','nid','nomoi'));
}
In the first, if when all variables are null the result is a collection of all the records of the table.
In all other, if (other cases) the result is a builder and I get no results,
It doesn't show any error but gives no results.
Any help would save me a lot of time.
Query Builder's get() method returns the collection of records. In your code, you just call get() method in the air, so it does nothing. You should assign it to a variable or use it in an expression.

Codeigniter not getting data though available in mysql database

I have a model which fetch the data from database is below
public function counselor() {
$inst_id = $this->session->userdata('user_id');
$submission_key=$this->session->userdata('submission_key');
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM counselor where USER_ID = $inst_id AND submission_key= $submission_key");
$data = $query->num_rows();
if ($data > 0) {
return $data;
} else {
return false;
}
}
I have tested the $inst_id and $submission_key by printing it and its set.
$inst_id=2 and $submission_key=2016-8 .BUT though I have one record in database with those two field set its not returning the data. What is the case. I have tried with codeigniter get() and where() method too. Still not giving me the result.
Just write your query using active record function. It will help you in escaping string
$this->db->select('*',FALSE);
$this->db->where('USER_ID',$inst_id);
$this->db->where('submission_key',$submission_key);
$query=$this->db->get('counselor');
$data = $query->num_rows();
if ($data > 0) {
return $data;
} else {
return false;
}

codeigniter returning false from models

Just wondering if it is necessary to use else {return false;} in my codeigniter model functions or if () {} is enough and it returns false by default in case of failure?
controller:
if ($this->model_a->did()) {
$data["results"] = $this->model_a->did();
echo json_encode($data);
}
model:
public function did()
{
//some code here
if ($query && $query->num_rows() > 0) {
return $query->result_array();
} else {
return false;
}
}
in your controller -- test the negative condition first - if nothing came back from the method in your model
if ( ! $data["results"] = $this->model_a->did() ) {
$this->showNoResults() ; }
else { echo json_encode($data); }
so thats saying - if nothing came back - then go to the showNoResults() method.
If results did come back then its assigned to $data
However - in this situation in the model i would also put ELSE return false - some people would say its extra code but for me it makes it clearer what is happening. Versus methods that always return some value.
I think this is more of a PHP question than a CodeIgniter question. You could easily test this by calling your model methods and var_dump-ing the result. If you return nothing from a method in PHP, the return value is NULL.
As much i have experience in CI returning false is not a plus point, because if you return false here then you need to have a condition back in controller which is useless you should be doing like this will save you at least some code of lines
if ($query && $query->num_rows() > 0) {
return $query->result_array();
} else {
return array();
}
so returning an array will save you from many other errors, like type error.

Redirecting not working in codeigniter

So here's what I want to do. I want to check if the userid in segment(3) exist or else it will redirect somewhere instead of still loading the view with an error.
Here's the example url
http://localhost/ems/edit_user/edit_user_main/1001
Now if I try to edit the userid in segment(3) and intentionally put an invalid userid, it still loads the view and i don't know why
Here's my function
public function edit_user_main(){
$id = $this->uri->segment(3);
$check = $this->get_data->check_if_exist($id);
if($check) {
$data['title'] = 'Edit User';
$data['id'] = $this->session->userdata('usertoedit');
$this->load->model('accounts/get_data');
$item = $this->get_data->get_user($id);
$data['user'] = $item[0];
$data['main_content'] = 'edit_user/edit_user_main';
$this->load->view('includes/template', $data);
} else {
redirect('admin/adminuser');
}
}
Here's the model
public function check_if_exist($id){
$query = $this->db->get_where('accounts',array('user_id'=>$id));
if($query) {
return TRUE;
} else {
return FALSE;
}
}
There is no problem with the fetching of data.
The problem is even if the userid doesn't exist, the view is still loading but with an error coz there's no data for that userID. It's not redirecting,
I tried using print_r and it working fine, the value of the $check is 1 when there's a valid userID.
Hope someone can help me with this. Thank you
With your function it will always return true because the statement
$this->db->get_where('accounts',array('user_id'=>$id));
will always execute,So you need to check query is returning any result row or not with the statement
$query->num_rows().
public function check_if_exist($id){
$query = $this->db->get_where('accounts',array('user_id'=>$id));
if($query->num_rows() > 0){ //change made here
return TRUE;
}
else{
return FALSE;
}
}
Try this..
With the function it will always return true because the following statement
$this->db->get_where('accounts',array('user_id'=>$id));
will always be execute, So need to check query is returning any result row or not
$query->num_rows().
public function check_if_exist($id){
$query = $this->db->get_where('accounts',array('user_id'=>$id));
if($query->num_rows() > 0){ //change made here
return TRUE;
}
else{
return FALSE;
}
}
And load heper as:-
$this->load->helper('url');
before the redirection

Form Validation w/ sql + codeigniter

I'm working on creating a callback function in codeigniter to see if a certain record exists in the database, and if it does it'd like it to return a failure.
In the controller the relevent code is:
function firstname_check($str)
{
if($this->home_model->find_username($str)) return false;
true;
}
Then in the model I check the database using the find_username() function.
function find_username($str)
{
if($this->db->get_where('MasterDB', array('firstname' => $str)))
{
return TRUE;
}
return FALSE;
}
I've used the firstname_check function in testing and it works. I did something like
function firstname_check($str)
{
if($str == 'test') return false;
true;
}
And in that case it worked. Not really sure why my model function isn't doing what it should. And guidance would be appreciated.
if($this->home_model->find_username($str)) return false;
true;
Given that code snippet above, you are not returning it true. If that is your code and not a typo it should be:
if($this->home_model->find_username($str)) return false;
return true;
That should fix it, giving that you did not have a typo.
EDIT:
You could also just do this since the function returns true/false there is no need for the if statement:
function firstname_check($str)
{
return $this->home_model->find_username($str);
}
So the solution involved taking the query statement out of if statement, placing it into a var then counting the rows and if the rows was > 0, invalidate.
Although this is a more convoluted than I'd like.
I find your naming kind of confusing. Your model function is called 'find_username' but it searches for a first name. Your table name is called 'MasterDB'. This sounds more like a database name. Shouldn't it be called 'users' or something similar? I'd write it like this :
Model function :
function user_exists_with_firstname($firstname)
{
$sql = 'select count(*) as user_count
from users
where firstname=?';
$result = $this->db->query($sql, array($firstname))->result();
return ((int) $result->user_count) > 0;
}
Validation callback function :
function firstname_check($firstname)
{
return !$this->user_model->user_exists_with_firstname($firstname);
}
