Question

I am trying to update a row in the database that has a certain value as ‘position’ in Yii.

Now I can use the update() method. But this does not allow me to specify a condition. I am trying to avoid CDbCriteria and native sql to keep my code clean. Does anyone has an advice to update a single record in yii with a condition?

Thanks in advance,

Did you see the method updateAll ?

CActiveRecord::updateAll($attributes, $condition='', $params=array())

Updates records with the specified condition.

Parameters:

array
$attributes –
list of attributes (name=>$value) to be updated
mixed

$condition –
query condition or criteria

array
$params
parameters to be bound to an SQL statement
