Is there a way (besides using raw SQL) to implement an insert in gorm with a subquery?
I have the following definitions
type Customer struct {
ID string
Name string
OwnerID string
...
}
type PaymentMethod struct {
ID string
CustomerID // references Customer.ID
Vendor string
Month int
Year int
...
}
I want to find a customer by OwnerID and then to insert a payment method for that user. If I were to use raw SQL, I would write something along the lines of:
INSERT INTO payment_method (ID, CustomerID, Month, Year)
SELECT (ID, 12, 2022)
FROM customer
WHERE owner_id = <some_value>
Is there a way to implement it in GORM in a single query?
Check the below code snippet. I used row expressions to get the customer id by owner id.
selectID := clause.Expr{
SQL: "(SELECT id FROM customer WHERE owner_id = ?)",
Vars: []interface{}{
1, // Owner id
},
}
values := map[string]interface{}{
"customer_id": selectID,
"month": 12,
"year": 2022,
"created_at": time.Now(),
"updated_at": time.Now(),
}
err = db.Table("payment_method").Create(values).Error
if err != nil {
fmt.Printf("%s", err)
}
type Customer struct {
gorm.Model
Name string
OwnerID string
}
type PaymentMethod struct {
gorm.Model
Vendor string
CustomerID int
Month int
Year int
}
