Question

I have written a mysql stored procedure in my magento database to perform a complex operation and want to use them in my magento code. I was able to call the procedure from my magento code and fetch the resultset in an array. Now i wanted to use this resultset as maybe a model to do further joins using joinattribute or to be more specific, i want to transfer this output resultset from the stored procedure into a collection so that i can use the getcollection methods. how do i do this ?

Answer 1

From a thread on joining procedure results:

> Is it possible to join a table on the results from a stored procedure within a single query?

No.

So it looks like you’ll have to do it the long way and use the array as a parameter.

// $collection is a collection
// $results is the stored procedure results as an array
$collection->addAttributeToFilter('ATTRIBUTE_NAME', array('in'=>$results));
