CFloop through query and apply each result to a variable

226 views Asked by At

I'm drawing a bit of a blank at the moment on looping, so a pointer would be greatly appreciated.

  1. I'm running a query for a list of names in a table given before a specific time.

  2. I need to loop through those results and set a variable <cfset file2 = (result from query) so this code can execute:

    >  <cfexecute name="C:\Program Files
    > (x86)\neeviaPDF.com\PDFcompress\cmdLine\CLcompr.exe"
    > arguments="C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testingFolder\PDFCompression2\pdf\#arguments.file2#
    > C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testingFolder\PDFCompression2\pdf\ResultPDF3.pdf
    > -co -ci jpg -cq 10 -gi jpg -gq 10 -mi jbig2 -mq 1" outputfile="C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testingFolder\PDFCompression2\output.txt"
    > timeout="250"> </cfexecute>
    

It will then loop through the results of the query setting the variable file2 to each result, thus compressing the files with those names.

This is the code which resolved my issue.

<cfquery name="qryGetFilesJustUploaded" datasource="#request.dsn#">                                         <!--- Limit to filed with pdf file type endings --->
SELECT fileupload
  FROM [First_Title_Services_Dev].[dbo].[upload_many]
  WHERE filedate >= '#dateTimeStamp#' AND fileupload Like '% .pdf'
</cfquery>

<!--- Next Set a loop function to run cfexecute--->
<cfloop query="qryGetFilesJustUploaded">
<cfset pdf_file_name = 'qryGetFileJustUploaded' />
<cfexecute name="C:\Program Files (x86)\neeviaPDF.com\PDFcompress\cmdLine\CLcompr.exe"
arguments="C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testingFolder\PDFCompression2\pdf\#pdf_file_name# C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testingFolder\PDFCompression2\pdf\#pdf_file_name# -co -ci jpg -cq 10 -gi jpg -gq 10 -mi jbig2 -mq 1"
outputfile="C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testingFolder\PDFCompression2\output.txt"
timeout="250">
</cfexecute>

</cfloop>
