Create article from PHP

Post by lucachat » Wed Aug 31, 2016 11:10 am

Hi! I'm a new user into this forum, so I don't know if I'm using the correct topic.
Recently I developped some PHP code which delete an article. Here I post the code:

Code: Select all

$p = dirname(dirname(__FILE__));
define('JOOMLA_MINIMUM_PHP', '5.3.10');

if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, JOOMLA_MINIMUM_PHP, '<'))
{
    die('Your host needs to use PHP ' . JOOMLA_MINIMUM_PHP . ' or higher to run this version of Joomla!');
}

$startTime = microtime(1);
$startMem  = memory_get_usage();

define('_JEXEC', 1);

if (file_exists($p . '/defines.php'))
{
    include_once $p . '/defines.php';
}

if (!defined('_JDEFINES'))
{
    define('JPATH_BASE', $p);
    require_once JPATH_BASE . '/includes/defines.php';
}

require_once JPATH_BASE . '/includes/framework.php';

$idArticle=23;

$db = JFactory::getDbo();

$query = $db->getQuery(true);

$conditions = array(
     $db->quoteName('id') . " = $idArticle", 
);

$query->delete($db->quoteName('#__content'));
$query->where($conditions);

$db->setQuery($query);

$result = $db->execute();
After I execute this code, I've got this error while I create an article (with the joomla's administration procdure):

Error displaying the error page: Table 's' was not locked with LOCK TABLES SQL=SELECT template, s.params FROM #__template_styles as s LEFT JOIN #__extensions as e ON e.type='template' AND e.element=s.template AND e.client_id=s.client_id WHERE s.client_id = 1 AND home = '1' ORDER BY home: Unknown column 'alias' in 'field list' SQL=UPDATE `#__assets` SET `name`='com_content.article.6',`title`='test article',`rules`='{\"core.admin\":{\"7\":1},\"core.manage\":{\"6\":1},\"core.create\":{\"3\":1},\"core.delete\":[],\"core.edit\":{\"4\":1},\"core.edit.state\":{\"5\":1},\"core.edit.own\":[]}',`parent_id`='27',`level`='3',`lft`='23',`rgt`='24',`alias`=NULL WHERE `id`='68'

On your own, does this code goes well and above all, what can I change to resolve this error?

In my opinion, since the db is nested, when I remove the article from "content" table, I forget to delete/update some other tables...but I don't know which!

Thanks
