Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi i have the below script but i get an error if a row is blank ie a return in the csv file at the end i need to somehow tell it to skip the rows that have nothing on them:

Code: <?php
// define table name and csv file location and name

$supp_id = "15";
$pricecode = "6";
$csvupload = "../ccd/Catalogue_ZZMILGAT.csv";

// create DB connection
$host = "localhost";
$user = "user";
$pass = "pass";
$mydb = "db";
$table = "table";

$db = mssql_connect($host,$user,$pass);
mssql_select_db($mydb);

// delete all old data
$sql2 = "DELETE FROM ".$table." WHERE supp_id = ".$supp_id."";

mssql_query($sql2) or die("Failed to insert to db ");

// Define DB mapping (Fill in rest of the mapping in order of appearance in CSV)
$fields = array(
"manufacturer",
"ignore",
"manf_part_no",
"supp_part_no",
"description",
"rrp",
"cost_price",
"avail_qty");


// Open the CSV file
$handle = fopen($csvupload, "r") or die("Unable to open $csvupload for reading");

// Get each row's values to an array
$i = 1;
// define tab delimited or comma
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 512, ",")) !== FALSE) {
// First row's headers and not included, otherwise row field count must match wanted field count
if(count($data)==count($fields) && $i!=1){
$rows[] = $data;
}
elseif(count($data)!=count($fields)) {
die("Erroneus CSV file: incorrect field count on row $i");
}
$i++;
}

// Close file handle
fclose($handle);

// Create SQL
if(count($rows)==0) die("No rows found in user file");


// Remove last comma
foreach($rows as $i => $row){
$sql = "INSERT INTO ".$table." (";
foreach($fields as $field)
if($field!="ignore")
$sql .= "$field,";
$sql = substr($sql,0,-1).",supp_id, date_added, PriceCode) VALUES ";
$sql .= "(";
foreach($row as $j => $value){
if($fields[$j]!="ignore"){
if(empty($value))
$value = "0";
// Quote strings, try to remove existing quotes
elseif(!is_numeric($value))
$value = str_replace("'","",$value);
$value = str_replace(""","",$value);
$sql .= "'$value',";
}
}

$sql = substr($sql,0,-1).",'".$supp_id."', getdate(),'".$pricecode."')"; // Remove last comma
//echo "SQL became: $sql";

mssql_query($sql) or die("Failed to insert to db ");

}
