laravel 5.6 bulk inserting json data

Question

I am trying to build an API to store and retrieve MCQ exam papers. I am using laravel resource class to send handle Json data. I need to insert 40 records into MySQL databas

Answer 1

Try code below

$jsonarray =json_decode(json_encode($b),TRUE); // $b=your json array
foreach ($jsonarray as $key => $value) 
{
 foreach ($value as $a => $b) 
  {
  $qry=DB::insert('insert into your_table(colomn_name1,colomn_name2)values(?,?)',[$b['indexname1'],$b['indexname2']]); //index name will be paper_id,question_no etc
  }
}

your code will look like this

public function bulkdata(Request $request)
  {

   $b=$request->input('data');
$jsonarray =json_decode(json_encode($b),TRUE);
foreach ($jsonarray as $key => $value) 
{

 foreach ($value as $a => $b) 
  {

  $qry=DB::insert('insert into yourtable(paper_id,question_no,question,answer1,answer2,answer3,answer4,answerC,knowarea)values(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)',[$b['paper_id'],$b['question_no'],$b['question'],$b['answer1'],$b['answer2'],$b['answer3'],$b['answer4'],$b['answerC']$b['knowarea']);
  }
}         

}
