Details
$this
addAssignments(array $assignments)
Adds assignments for a list of several fields.
For multi-row objects this applies this to the current row.
Note that field values must not be escaped, as these will be internally parameterised by the database engine.
// Basic assignments
$query->addAssignments([
'"Object"."Title"' => 'Bob',
'"Object"."Description"' => 'Bob was here'
])
// Parameterised assignments
$query->addAssignments([
'"Object"."Title"' => ['?' => 'Bob'],
'"Object"."Description"' => ['?' => null]
])
// Complex parameters
$query->addAssignments([
'"Object"."Score"' => ['MAX(?,?)' => [1, 3]]
]);
// Assignment of literal SQL for a field. The empty array is
// important to denote the zero-number parameter list
$query->addAssignments([
'"Object"."Score"' => ['NOW()' => []]
]);
