Question

I am having a small issue saving al POST fields into MongoDB

function savedata($data){
        $collection = $this->db->retail_logs;
        $this->data = json_decode($data);


        try {
        $collection->update(
            array("tradingname"=>$this->data['tradingname']),
            $this->data, "date"=> date("d.m.Y"), "time"=>date("H:i:s"),"whochanged"=>$_COOKIE['CRMUIDkey']), // new lead document to insert
            array("upsert" => true, "safe" => true)
            );
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            // Something went wrong .. 
        }
    }

For some reson the $this->data which holds the $_POST does not want to go there i get this error

Warning: json_decode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/crmvip/public_html/system/db/mongo.php on line 294

Warning: MongoCollection::update() expects at most 3 parameters, 4 given in /home/crmvip/public_html/system/db/mongo.php on line 302

it sends the POST information like it should tradingname=monkey&street=abc

Answer 1

json_decode is for decoding JSON.

If you just want to save value of data received through a POST request:

   $this->data = $_POST['data'];
