The below PHP code receives a JSON array from a Python script in the format of:
{'payload': '[{"sample": 1, "count": 60, "sqlTimeStamp": "2015-08-03 15:14:05", "id": 1, "zone": 1}, {"sample": 2, "count": 60, "sqlTimeStamp": "2015-08-03 15:14:07", "id": 2, "zone": 1}, {"sample": 3, "count": 60, "sqlTimeStamp": "2015-08-03 15:14:09", "id": 3, "zone": 1}]'}
The PHP code is as follows:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "practice";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connection made...";
$payload_dump = $_POST['payload'];
//$payload_dump = '{"device":"gabriel","data_type":"data","zone":1,"sample":6,"count":0,"time_stamp":"00:00"}';
echo $payload_dump;
$payload_array = json_decode($payload_dump,true);
if(is_array($payload_array)){
foreach($payload_array as $row){
//get the data_payload details
$sample = $payload_array['sample'];
$count = $payload_array['count'];
$time = $payload_array['sqlTimeStamp'];
$id = $payload_array['id'];
$zone = $payload_array['zone'];
//$time = $payload_array['time_stamp'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO data(sample, count, sqlTimeStamp, id, zone) VALUES('$sample', '$count', '$time', '$id', '$zone')";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}
}
}
$conn->close();
?>
The PHP script creates the correct number of new rows in the MySQL database, but all the values are zero/null. What am I doing wrong?
