PDO wrapper extends PDO and PDOStatement classes and add some nice methods as insert/update/delete and so on. Also, there is very useful SQL query builder.

API

Because library extends PDO driver, you can use all of native PDO methods and new additional:

DB - The database class

• insert - insert object or array as row to database table (optionaly: using prepared statement)
• update - update existent row in database table (optionaly: using prepared statement)
• replace - insert or replace (using REPLACE table... syntax)
• save - save data to table (method determinate does insert or update will be used)
• delete - delete row(s) in database table
• count - shortcut for SELECT COUNT(*) statement
• select - query build object
• createQuery - create new query builder
• getColumnsFromTable - all columns from table as array

Statement

• fetchInto - fetch row into object (optionaly: only from specific table)
• fetchIntoFromLastRow - fetch another object from last row (based on table name)
• fetchCollection - fetch collection of objects (custom defined object or stdClass)
• getColumnValue - value from specific column

Query - Build SQL query object

• select - statement for SELECT
• from - statement for FROM
• where - adding new WHERE statement. Multiple where will be joined by AND
• whereIn - adding WHERE IN (...) statement
• whereNotIn - adding WHERE NOT IN (...) statement
• having - statement for HAVING
• join - join table syntax
• groupBy - GROUP BY statement
• orderBy - ORDER BY statement
• limit - LIMIT statement
• getQuery - buld and return query string
• execute - execute query

See more information about how to use database query builder.

Usage examples

Creating database instance

$db = new database\DB("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=YOUR_DB_NAME", "YOUR_DB_USERNAME", "YOUR_DB_PASSWORD");

Select

Execute query and fetch User object:

class User {}

$user_id = 1;
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_id = ? AND is_active = ?";
$user = $db->executeQuery($sql, array($user_id, 1))
	->fetchInto(new User); // or ->fetchObject("User") as in standard PDO driver

If you need a collection of User objects, you can use fetchCollection method:

$users = $db->executeQuery($sql, array($user_id, 1))
	->fetchCollection(new User); // or ->fetchCollection("User");

More complex, with query builder. You can build 'native' structure of objects. For example, you can fetch collection of objects Post and every Post object may have a property $author which is a instance of User object:

class User
{
    /**
     * Get user's first and last name
     *
     * @return string
     */
    function getName() {
        return $this->first_name . " ". $this->last_name;
    }
}

class Post
{
	/**
	 * @var User
	 */
	public $author;
}

// Library need FETCH_TABLE_NAMES option for mapping class names and table names
$db->setFetchTableNames(1);

$sql = $db->select("p.*, u.*")
	->from("posts p")
	->join("INNER JOIN users u USING(user_id)")
	->where("u.user_id = ?", $user_id)
	->orderBy("p.title");
	
$stmt = $sql->execute();

/* @var Post[] $post_collection  */
$post_collection = array();

// Fetching data into Post object from posts table (p is alias)
while($post = $stmt->fetchInto(new Post, "p")) {

	// fetch User object from users table (u is alias)
	$post->author = $stmt->fetchIntoFromLastRow(new User, "u");

	$post_collection[] = $post;
}

// You can send $post_collection from model to view in your controller, so here is usage in view
foreach($post_collection as $post) {
    echo $post->author->getName();
}

Insert

Library has insert method for easy inserting array or object as row to database table. Note that all other properties or elements that not match column names will be ignored.

$data = array(
	"username" => "User 1234",
	"email" => "user@example.com",
	"mtime" => time()
);
$db->insert("users", $data);

Insert with prepared statement

Third param for insert() method is "unique prepared stmt key". Every insert which have that key will use the same prepared statement.

foreach($data_array as $data) {
	$db->insert("users", $data, "unique_stmt_key");
}

Update

Some examples of update statement

$user_id = 1;
$db->update("users", $data, "user_id = ?", $user_id);
$db->update("users", $data, "user_id = ? AND email = ?", array(1, "user@example.com"));

Saving data

Automatic determination of INSERT or UPDATE. If $data['user_id'] exits it will be UPDATE, otherwise it will be INSERT.

$db->save("users", $data, "user_id"); // user_id is name of PRIMARY column

More examples

// Delete row in table
// some as $db->exec("DELETE FROM users WHERE user_id = 1");
$db->delete("users", "user_id = ?", $user_id);

// Count rows in table
$count = $db->count("users");

/* @var User[] $users Collection of User objects */
$users = $db->executeQuery("SELECT * FROM users")->fetchCollection(new User);
