double search field on ccv6

Hi I have this php code working on CCv5 but I am trying to translate it to ccv6 in where conditions in a read field function

<?php
if(!empty($_POST['filtername1']) && !empty($_POST['filtertext1'])){
$filter1 =$_POST['filtername1'];
$text1=$_POST['filtertext1'];
if(!empty($_POST['filtername2']) && !empty($_POST['filtertext2'])){
$filter2 =$_POST['filtername2'];
$text2=$_POST['filtertext2'];
return array(":{$filter1} LIKE" => "%{$text1}%" , ":{$filter2} LIKE" => "%{$text2}%" );
}else{
return array(":{$filter1} LIKE"=>"%{$text1}%");
}?>

this simple code works on ccv6

<?php
return [["venta.num","1997"]];
?>

and also works to assign a variable to field value

<?php
return [["venta.num","{data:valor1}"]];
?> 

but I couldn't make variable the field to search that comes from a dropdown, is it possible in ccv6?, for example this simple test

<?php
$this->data['filtro1_sel']="num";
$this->data['valorl']="1997";
return [[":{data:filtro1_sel}","{data:valor1}"]];
?>

gives me this error 1054Unknown column 'venta.:{data:filtro1_sel}' in 'where clause'

Hi Teldrive,
​
Did you try the new v7 ? the "Search listing" behavior in the Text fields can be added to multiple fields and it would apply the where conditions to the list automatically!

Hi Max
I see only version 6 in chronoengine web , anyway is there any possibility to assign variable to field condition? I have a lot of work done in v6

Hi Teldrive,
​
The beta version of CFv7 is available from the Blog menu above.

hi bob I will try, but for a production solution is very risky go ahead with beta. I understand there is not work around for this topic in ccv6
thanks anyway

In your conditions, just put in all the fields and choose "skip" or "ignore" if it's null.
​
Or if you absolutely must have a dropdown, then you'll just have to build the query yourself.

Hi healyhatman, thanks by the clue, sometimes I forget the ccv6 flexibility, but some i need some adittional help

$this->data['filtro1_sel']="num";
$this->data['valor1']="1997";
//---------------------------starts query
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
// Create a new query object.
$query1 = $db->getQuery(true);
$query1->select($db->quoteName(array('id','ano','bruto','neto','iva','irpf','fechaini','tipoventa')));
$query1->from($db->quoteName('#__cf_venta'));
$filter1=$this->data['filtro1_sel'];
$text1=$this->data['valor1'];
//$query1->where($db->quote($filter1)." LIKE  ".$db->quote($text1));
$query1->where($db->quoteName('num')." LIKE  ".$db->quote($text1));
$query1->order($db->quoteName('fechaini').'DESC');
$db->setQuery($query1);
return $db->loadAssocList();

this works fine, but when try with the variable field "$db->quote($filter1)", fails
​

$query1->where($db->quote($filter1)." LIKE  ".$db->quote($text1));

is something missing?, by the way how can I request model "venta" into to query1 I tried with

$query1->from($db->quoteName('#__cf_venta','venta'));

but it doesn't work

I think the code at the first post will be something like this:
​

$where = [];

if(1){$where = ["field1", "value1", "="];}// you may replace "=" by LIKE

return $where;

Hi Max, thanks by this other method, I tried and works but it necessary the double bracket not sure why

<?php
$this->data['filtro1_sel']="num";
$this->data['valor1']="1997";
if(1){$where = ["num", "1997", "="];}
return [$where];
?>

I was wrong before because is not possible to pass variable to field or value , I am not sure if I am missing something

if(1){$where = ["num", "{data:valor1}", "="];}
if(1){$where = ["{data:filtro1_sel}", "{data:valor1}", "="];}

by the way let me ask if you can help how to get a "model" based array using query when I return "$db->loadAssocList()" I think this could be a workarund;

yes, it's necessary to use double brackets, because this is a group of where settings!
​
you do not have to use if(1), that was just an example!
​
The loadAssocList is a Joomla function, the model array is a gcore feature, you need to use the GCore code for that!
​
and I do not think it's a good idea to get the field name by the {data:} call like you do now {data:filtro1_sel}

Hi Max, awaiting any clue about how can I generate a model array with Gcore ;-) or how can generate "where conditions" with variable field-value as in ccv5 (if possible) Anyway opening my mind and exploring all posibilities I decided to try CFv7
I see Cfv7 has very high potential if possible to merge cc and cf in one package, I miss some demos ,
trying to implement a basic ccv6 viewlist I am working on i think this integration can be with module "table list" , but how do I define source data for this table?
fighting until find a solution🧐

"where conditions" with variable field ? you mean like in your first post ? just use my code and instead of "if(1)" use your own condition!
​
There is a FAQ on how to work with GCore database models class, but you do not need that since you can just use the "Read Data"
​
You can find attached a basic articles listing in v7, I hope it helps!

Hi Max, we got it, this code works with one search filed where condition with parameters field and value😀
(i insert pictures because blog process brackets )

​
just a little adittional help , how can I combine two where conditions( if possible), I tried two options without sucess

return [$where]." AND ".[$where];

and
​

your syntax is wrong, it should be like this:

return [["field1", "value1", "="],"AND",["field2","value2","LIKE"]];

And so on!
