i am trying to get a number count of events on a specific date.
database field name "event_date_begin" and value "2012-08-04 17:00:00" but i am only needing to match against the date part.
DB
Code:
INSERT INTO `default_eventcal` (`id_eventcal`, `user_id`, `event_date_begin`, `event_date_end`, `event_title`, `event_content`, `event_repeat`, `event_repeat_prm`, `privacy`)
VALUES
(2, 1, '2012-08-04 10:00:00', '2012-08-04 17:00:00', 'Picnic', 'This will be a great day.', 0, '{\"type\":\"0\",\"time\":\"0\",\"day\":\"0\",\"date\":\"1\"}', 'public'),
(3, 1, '2012-08-04 16:32:00', '2012-08-04 21:00:00', 'Another Event', 'Cool', 0, '{\"type\":\"0\",\"time\":\"0\",\"day\":\"0\",\"date\":\"1\"}', 'public'),
(4, 1, '2012-08-23 13:01:00', NULL, 'Test Event', 'This is a test event for james to play with.', 0, '{\"type\":\"0\",\"time\":\"0\",\"day\":\"0\",\"date\":\"1\"}', 'private'),
(5, 1, '2012-08-16 21:58:00', NULL, 'werwerwer', 'werwer', 0, '{\"type\":\"0\",\"time\":\"0\",\"day\":\"0\",\"date\":\"1\"}', 'private'),
(6, 1, '2012-08-16 22:03:00', NULL, 'test priv', 'asd', 0, '{\"type\":\"0\",\"time\":\"0\",\"day\":\"0\",\"date\":\"1\"}', 'private');
index.php
Code:
echo '<span class="count_events">'. event_counter($current_year, $current_month, $day) .'</span>';
helper.php
Code:
if (!function_exists('event_counter'))
{
function event_counter($year, $month, $day)
{
$dated = $year .'-'. $month .'-'. $day;
$date_is = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($dated));
$counted_events = ci()->calendar_m->count_date_events($date_is);
return print_r($counted_events);
}
}
calendar_m->count_date_events()
Code:
function count_date_events($date_is)
{
return $this->db
->select("DATE_FORMAT(`event_date_begin`,'%Y-%m-%d') AS event_date_begin", FALSE)
->where('event_date_begin', $date_is)
->from('eventcal')
->count_all_results();
}
I get 1 but thats wrong.
