MySQL triggers 29 Jul 2012 08:25 #2920

I would like to record automatically a datetime record in one of my SQL table when another field of the same table is changed by the front-end user.
I guess this is usually realized using SQL triggers.

1 => Where in j-cook interface can I define such triggers ?
2 => If it's not possible from the interface where should be the right place in the generated code to do it ?

You can use the 'Creation date' wizard.

If you want to use a different way :


MySQL has an issue here :
stackoverflow.com/questions/168736/how-d...ysql-datetime-column

You can realize it with two methods.


1st Method (Triggers)
TODO in :
sql/install.mysql.utf8.sql

Add the SQL instructions at the installation (like triggers)


2nd Method
TODO in :
tables/[myTable].php

in the check() function :

Test the value and if the value is empty, fill it with the current time (PHP call)
mktime()
or
www.php.net/manual/fr/function.date.php#...unction.date-seealso
Hope it helps
Coding is now a piece of cake

Awards for the best Joomla app. This product is gonna win an award for this amazing job. Cook Self Service is the the best application from all over the Joomla universe ! It brings Joomla to a professional level really advanced for developers. It is a real fun to develop with it. The ACL part and security checks implementation are just... so much hours saved. I can now concentrate myself more on the design part and the creative works. Thank you so much. Guys I offer you all my congratulation ! Keep up the works because Joomla is needing it to increase the quality of extensions availables on the JED. I also learned a lot because I can see how to code at the proper place and I found all my answers reading the forum.
