I'm creating a RPG. When the user logs in, I want to load their data from three tables:
quest_items stores all data related to an item:
join_questitems stores association between player ID and the items that player has:
userstats stores user_id, current map, current quest, x y location, etc
Since I want to load all this data on runtime, I figured I'd just put the two queries in the same function, store results in separate arrays, then push those two arrays into allData
array. Then encode allData
and pass it back to JS.
The problem here is accessing the data in the $.(each
loop:
PHP:
$allData = array();
$itemsArray = array();
$statsArray = array();
$qry =
'SELECT qi.*
FROM quest_items qi
LEFT JOIN join_questitems jqi ON (qi.item_id = jqi.item_id)
WHERE jqi.user_id = "' . $playerID . '"';
$result = $mysqli->query($qry) or die(mysqli_error($mysqli));
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$itemsArray[] = $row;
}
$qry =
'SELECT us.*
FROM userstats us
WHERE us.id_user_fk = "' . $playerID . '"';
$result = $mysqli->query($qry) or die(mysqli_error($mysqli));
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$statsArray[] = $row;
}
array_push($allData, $itemsArray, $statsArray);
echo json_encode($allData);
JavaScript snippet:
I'm able to access the first array ($itemsArray
) within $allData
with v[0].item_name
from quest_items table, which gives: rice, test/path.png
as expected.
But if I try to access the second array v[1].username
from userstats table, it gives undefined
.
$.getJSON("phpscripts.php", {
"_player" : Player,
"_playerID" : UserID
},
function(returned_data) {
$.each(returned_data, function (key, value) {
$(".questItems").append("<br/>" + value[1].username + ", " + value[0].item_name);
});
-
value[1].username
= undefined -
value[0].item_name
= works
This is curious because the chrome debugger response shows that both arrays are being added and returned inside the container array:
Why is this? Why can't I access array 2 with value[1].username
?
EDIT:
$.each(returned_data, function (key, value) {
console.log(value[1]);
});
Gives:
Object {item_id: "2", item_name: "meat", item_chinese: "rou", ... (index):29
undefined (index):29
Which is a result set from value[0]
. Maybe what's happening is either
since
value[0]
has more result rows than doesvalue[1]
, maybe it's looping through again forvalue[1]
even though it is passed its array size. Would that break it?value[1]
is actually accessing the second array value from the first items array... and not pointing to the userstats array?
EDIT 2:
console.log(returned_data)
right after function(returned_data)
gives:
[Array[2], Array[1]]
0: Array[2]
1: Array[1]
length: 2
__proto__: Array[0]
console.log(value);
right after $.each(returned_data, function (key, value) {
gives:
[Object, Object]
0: Object
1: Object
length: 2
__proto__: Array[0]
[Object]
0: Object
length: 1
__proto__: Array[0]
Expanded results of console.log(returned_data);
after function(returned_data)
:
EDIT 3: It works if I manually access the array: returned_data[1][0]["username"]
function(returned_data) {
console.log(returned_data[1][0]["username"]); //DAN
console.log(returned_data[0][0]["item_name"]); //rice
console.log(returned_data[0][1]["item_name"]); //meat
But what if I have a lot of data rows to return for item_name. I need a loop to get all data.
