Update Data

SqlKata provides the following methods to help with updating/inserting/deleting against your database:

• Update()
• Insert()
• InsertGetId()
• Delete()

var db = new QueryFactory(connection, new SqlServerCompiler());

Update Existing Data

int affected = db.Query("Books").Where("Id", 1).Update(new {
    Price = 18,
    Status = "active",
});

Insert One Record

int affected = db.Query("Books").Insert(new {
    Title = "Introduction to C#",
    Price = 18,
    Status = "active",
});

Insert One Record and get the Inserted Id

In version 1.1.0 we've added the ability to get the inserted id, in the database.

var id = db.Query("Books").InsertGetId<int>(new {
    Title = "Introduction to Dart",
    Price = 0,
    Status = "active"
});

Note: Currently this method is able to get the Id for single insert statements. Multiple records is not supported yet.

Insert Multiple Record

var cols = new [] {"Name", "Price"};

var data = new [] {
    new object[] { "A", 1000 },
    new object[] { "B", 2000 },
    new object[] { "C", 3000 },
};

db.Query("Products").Insert(cols, data);

Insert From Existing Query

var articlesQuery = new Query("Articles").Where("Type", "Book").Limit(100);
var columns = new [] { "Title", "Price", "Status" };

int affected = db.Query("Books").Insert(columns, articlesQuery);

Delete

int affected = db.Query("Books").Where("Status", "inactive").Delete();
