So I am trying to learn how to work with databases and php but I have run into some trouble concerning whether I can make a view for what i need or if i would just need to get all the variables into a php function and calculate it there.
Here is the database structure i have decided for the project. (The premise is setup a database and webpage for a truck rental company if it helps.)
Vehicles(vehicleId, size, gas)
Price(size, price)
Customer(customerId, firstname, lastname, streetaddress, city, state, zipcode, email, company)
Rental(rentId, customerId, vehicleId, startdate, enddate, tank(0=full positive=number of gallons missing from tank), damage(0=none))
So the view in this example i am trying to create would calculate the total cost for each rental for easy display
total cost is price of specific vehicle size * number of days rented (if returned on same day is 1) + (tank * 5) + damage
The view would also contain the rentalId, and customerId to make it simple to search for total amount spent.
can i do this in mysql or would it need to be done in php?
