Alright, I'm not going to say that it's finished but it's a lot better than it was...
foreach (<>) { my ($item_id, $upc) = split(",",$_); my $status = upsert($dbh, $table, $item_id, $upc); print "Item #: $item_id, UPC: $upc, Status: $status\n"; } sub upsert { my ($rows, $rows2, $status); my $true = "0E0"; my ($dbh, $table, $item_id, $upc) = @_; my $sth = $dbh->prepare("UPDATE $table SET upc=? WHERE item_id=?;") +or die $dbh->errstr; my $sth2 = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO $table (item_id, upc) VALUES(? +, ?);") or die $dbh->errstr; $sth->execute($upc, $item_id); $rows = $sth->rows; ($rows == 0) ? $true : $rows; # from DBI pod (using variable instea +d of "0E0") print "rows is $rows\n" if ($DEBUG); if ($rows < 1) { print "Didn't update so trying to insert...\n" if ($DEBUG); $sth2->execute($item_id, $upc); $rows = $sth2->rows; ($rows == 0) ? $true : $rows; print "rows is $rows\n" if ($DEBUG); if ($rows < 1) { print "Didn't insert so giving up...\n" if ($DEBUG); }else{ $status = "Inserted"; } }else{ $status = "Updated"; } return $status; }
Comments, suggests?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
