One to many inserting - go

Question

I have two models: Order and OrderItem. I need to insert order and item of it from same request, e.g.:
{
"user_id": "1",
"total_price": "200",
"items": [
{
"product_id": 1,
"quantity": 10
},
{
"product_id": 2,
"quantity": 5
},
{
"product_id": 3,
"quantity":3
}
]
}
This is Order and OrderItem model
=========================== Order ===========================
type Order struct {
ID int `boil:"id" json:"id" toml:"id" yaml:"id"`
OrderNumber string `boil:"order_number" json:"order_number" toml:"order_number" yaml:"order_number"`
OrderDate time.Time `boil:"order_date" json:"order_date" toml:"order_date" yaml:"order_date"`
Status string `boil:"status" json:"status" toml:"status" yaml:"status"`
Note string `boil:"note" json:"note" toml:"note" yaml:"note"`
UserID int `boil:"user_id" json:"user_id" toml:"user_id" yaml:"user_id"`
CreatedAt time.Time `boil:"created_at" json:"created_at" toml:"created_at" yaml:"created_at"`
UpdatedAt time.Time `boil:"updated_at" json:"updated_at" toml:"updated_at" yaml:"updated_at"`
R *orderR `boil:"-" json:"-" toml:"-" yaml:"-"`
L orderL `boil:"-" json:"-" toml:"-" yaml:"-"`
}
=========================== OrderItem ===========================
type OrderItem struct {
ID int `boil:"id" json:"id" toml:"id" yaml:"id"`
OrderID int `boil:"order_id" json:"order_id" toml:"order_id" yaml:"order_id"`
ProductID int `boil:"product_id" json:"product_id" toml:"product_id" yaml:"product_id"`
ProductPrice float64 `boil:"product_price" json:"product_price" toml:"product_price" yaml:"product_price"`
ProductName string `boil:"product_name" json:"product_name" toml:"product_name" yaml:"product_name"`
Quantity int `boil:"quantity" json:"quantity" toml:"quantity" yaml:"quantity"`
Discount float64 `boil:"discount" json:"discount" toml:"discount" yaml:"discount"`
Note string `boil:"note" json:"note" toml:"note" yaml:"note"`
CreatedAt time.Time `boil:"created_at" json:"created_at" toml:"created_at" yaml:"created_at"`
UpdatedAt time.Time `boil:"updated_at" json:"updated_at" toml:"updated_at" yaml:"updated_at"`
R *orderItemR `boil:"-" json:"-" toml:"-" yaml:"-"`
L orderItemL `boil:"-" json:"-" toml:"-" yaml:"-"`
}
What do people usually do? Is there a way to do this quickly with sqlboiler?

Answer 1

I think you needn't to do that, you can insert order model and orderItems model in different requests. This solution provide more option than for client. If you need to update or add new order item into the order, you also need this API to solve it.

Answer 2

Create some models like
type OrderItemInput struct {
ProductId int `json:"product_id"`
Quantity int `json:"quantity"`
}
type OrderInsertInput struct {
UserID int `json:"user_id"`
TotalPrice float64 `json:"total_price"`
Items []OrderItemInput `json:"items"`
}
Create new Order by fields UserId and TotalPrice of OrderInsertInput.
When there was OrderID, we will create OrderItem with each OrderItemInput and the OrderID.
