Need help with query

I'm working on a snippet, and based on a table value I want to display an image.

In my database I have created a column called checkmark and it has a value of 0 or 1, to determine whether or not to display a checkmark image.

My snippet is set to query all rows in the db:

$query = $modx->newQuery('tampa');
$query->sortby('listings');

I have my output set to get a chunk to fill in the values:

foreach($listings as $listing) {
    $fields = $listing->toArray();
    $output .= $modx->getChunk('listings_display_chunk', $fields);

I am running into an issue trying to figure out the right way to set the logic on whether or not to show the checkbox image, basically I want something like:

if (checkmark //not sure how to call a column name here from the db, I think this is where I am stuck
== '1') {
$checkfield = '<img src="check.png" />;
} else {
$checkfield = ' ';
}

Thank you in advance for any help, I'm sure I'm missing something simple here and just not seeing it.

I think, you want something like that:


foreach ($listings as $listing) {
    $fields = $listing->toArray();
    if ($listing->get('checkmark') == '1') {
        $fields['checkfield'] = '<img src="check.png" />';
    } else {
        $fields['checkfield'] = '';
    }
    $output .= $modx->getChunk('listings_display_chunk', $fields);
}

But you could also just use migxLoopCollection like that:

[[migxLoopCollection?
&packageName=`yourPackage`
&classname=`tampa`
&sortConfig=`[{"sortby":"listings"}]`
&tpl=`listings_display_chunk`
]]

In the chunk use an outputfilter like:

[[+checkfield:is=`1`:then=`<img src="check.png" />`:else=``]]

you can buy me a beer, if you like MIGX

Thank you very much! That was the missing piece of the puzzle. I really need to get on board with MIGX, it seems to do just about everything I need.
