I am trying to use the following code to get information from a WooCommerce Wordpress Order, then pass the details to a database. The code that is supposed to execute this action is as follows:
//Pass udid to database
add_action('woocommerce_payment_complete', 'send_to_db');
function send_to_db( $order_id ) {
$order = new WC_Order( $order_id );
$udid = $order->customer_note;
$email = $order->billing_email;
$db_hostname = 'MYIP';
$db_database = 'MYDATABASE';
$db_username = 'MYUSER';
$db_password = 'MYPASSWORD';
// Connect to server.
$link = mysqli_connect($db_hostname, $db_username, $db_password);
if (!$link) {
die('Not connected : ' . mysqli_error());
}
// Select the database.
$db_selected = mysqli_select_db($link, $db_database);
if (!$db_selected) {
die ('Can\'t use database : ' . mysqli_error());
}
//find package type
$items = $order->get_items();
foreach($items as $item) {
$type = '1';
if(preg_match("/Basic/i", implode($item))) {
$type = '0';
}
}
//put it into the db
$query= "INSERT INTO udid_orders (udid, email, type) VALUES ('$udid','$email','$type')";
$sql = mysqli_query($link, $query);
}
mysqli_close($link);
//end pass to db
After this code is executed, it should fill the database then another piece of helper PHP will get the information from the database. However I have two issues. The first issue, is that I don't think I created the database properly. I can successfully connect, but after an order is placed, the information is not stored in the database. To create the database, I just did a simple
CREATE DATABASE MYDATABASE;
and created the database. I assumed the table and rows would create themselves after this code was executed. Please correct me if I'm wrong. My second issue is when I run the following helper code:
<?php
$x = '1';
//include 'db.php';
$db_hostname = 'MYIP';
$db_database = 'MYDATABASE';
$db_username = 'MYUSERNAME';
$db_password = 'MYPASSWORD';
// Connect to server.
$link = mysqli_connect($db_hostname, $db_username, $db_password);
if (!$link) {
die('Not connected : ' . mysqli_error());
}
// Select the database.
$db_selected = mysqli_select_db($link, $db_database);
if (!$db_selected) {
die ('Can\'t use database : ' . mysqli_error());
}
//get udid from database
while($x = '1'){
$query = "SELECT id, udid, email, premium FROM udid_orders ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 1";
$sql = mysqli_query($link, $query);
if(mysqli_num_rows($sql) >= 1){
echo 'registering';
$row = mysqli_fetch_array($sql);
$number = $row['id'];
$udidsql = $row['udid'];
$email = $row['email'];
$is_premium = $row['premium'];
$service_port = '622';
$address = 'MYIPHERE';
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
if ($socket === false) {
echo 'Failed to create socket';
return;
}
$result = socket_connect($socket, $address, $service_port);
if ($result === false) {
echo 'Failed to connect socket';
return;
}
$in = "weTi3xJEy7kbldDYWdXe";
$out = '';
socket_write($socket, $in, strlen($in));
while ($out = socket_read($socket, 1024)) {
break;
}
//get us a random number for the name
$request = 'OrderInfo ';
//$random = rand(1, 2000);
//name that nigga
$name = $number;
$request .= $name;
$request .= " ";
//$request .= $order->billing_email;
$request .= $email;
$request .= " ";
//$is_premium = '1';
// if(preg_match("/Bronze/i", implode($item))) {
// $is_premium = '0';
// }
// $request .= $is_premium;
//}
$request .= $is_premium;
$out = '';
socket_write($socket, $request, strlen($request));
while($out = socket_read($socket, 1024)) {
break;
}
$udids = explode(',', $udidsql);
foreach($udids as $udid){
$udid_request = "UdidRegister ";
$udid = $udidsql;
$udid_request .= $udid;
$udid_status = "";
socket_write($socket, $udid_request, strlen($udid_request));
}
socket_close($socket);
$update = "UPDATE udid_orders SET status='1' WHERE udid='$udidsql'";
$sql_update = mysqli_query($link, $update);
}
else{
echo 'sleeping';
sleep(5);
}
}
// close mysql
mysqli_close($link);
?>
I get the following error
PHP Warning: mysqli_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, boolean given in /link.php on line 25
I have no idea what is even means, let alone how to troubleshoot it.
I am pretty new to both PHP and MySQL, so any pointers in the right direction would be really helpful.
