db\ActiveRecord insert()

insert() public method

Inserts a row into the associated database table using the attribute values of this record.

This method performs the following steps in order:

  1. call beforeValidate() when $runValidation is true. If beforeValidate() returns false, the rest of the steps will be skipped;
  2. call afterValidate() when $runValidation is true. If validation failed, the rest of the steps will be skipped;
  3. call beforeSave(). If beforeSave() returns false, the rest of the steps will be skipped;
  4. insert the record into database. If this fails, it will skip the rest of the steps;
  5. call afterSave();

In the above step 1, 2, 3 and 5, events EVENT_BEFORE_VALIDATE, EVENT_AFTER_VALIDATE, EVENT_BEFORE_INSERT, and EVENT_AFTER_INSERT will be raised by the corresponding methods.

Only the changed attribute values will be inserted into database.

If the table's primary key is auto-incremental and is null during insertion, it will be populated with the actual value after insertion.

For example, to insert a customer record:

$customer = new Customer;
$customer->name = $name;
$customer->email = $email;
$customer->insert();
public boolean insert ( $runValidation = true, $attributes = null )
$runValidation boolean

Whether to perform validation (calling validate()) before saving the record. Defaults to true. If the validation fails, the record will not be saved to the database and this method will return false.

$attributes array

List of attributes that need to be saved. Defaults to null, meaning all attributes that are loaded from DB will be saved.

return boolean

Whether the attributes are valid and the record is inserted successfully.

throws Exception

in case insert failed.
