Purpose
autoPrepare() and
autoExecute()
reduce the need to write boring
INSERT or UPDATE
SQL queries which are difficult to maintain when you
add a field for instance.
Imagine you have a 'user' table with 3 fields
(id, name and country).
You have to write sql queries like:
INSERT INTO table (id, name, country) VALUES (?, ?, ?)
UPDATE table SET id=?, name=?, country=? WHERE ... |
If you add a field ('birthYear' for example), you have to rewrite your
queries which is boring and can lead to bugs (if you forget one query for
instance).
autoPrepare
With
autoPrepare(), you don't have to write your
insert or update queries. For example:
<?php
// Once you have a valid DB object named $db...
$table_name = 'user';
$table_fields = array('id', 'name', 'country');
$sth = $db->autoPrepare($table_name, $table_fields,
DB_AUTOQUERY_INSERT);
if (PEAR::isError($sth)) {
die($sth->getMessage());
}
?> |
In this example,
autoPrepare() will build the following SQL query:
INSERT INTO user (id, name, country) VALUES (?, ?, ?) |
And then, it will call
prepare() with it.
To add records, you have
to use
execute() or
executeMultiple() like:
<?php
// ... contining from the example above...
$table_values = array(1, 'Fabien', 'France');
$res =& $db->execute($sth, $table_values);
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
die($res->getMessage());
}
?> |
So, you don't have to write any SQL
INSERT
queries! And it works with
UPDATE
queries too. For flexibility reasons, you have only to write
the
WHERE clause of the query. For instance:
<?php
// Once you have a valid DB object named $db...
$table_name = 'user';
$table_fields = array('name', 'country');
$table_values = array('Bob', 'USA');
$sth = $db->autoPrepare($table_name, $table_fields,
DB_AUTOQUERY_UPDATE, 'id = 1');
if (PEAR::isError($sth)) {
die($sth->getMessage());
}
$res =& $db->execute($sth, $table_values);
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
die($res->getMessage());
}
?> |
autoPrepare() will build the following query:
UPDATE user SET name=?, country=? WHERE id=1 |
Then, it will call
prepare() with it.
Be careful, if you don't specify any WHERE
clause, all the records
of the table will be updated.
autoExecute
Using
autoExecute() is the easiest way
to do insert or update queries. It is a mix of
autoPrepare() and
execute().
You only need an associative array (key => value) where keys are fields
names and values are corresponding values of these fields.
For instance:
<?php
// Once you have a valid DB object named $db...
$table_name = 'user';
$fields_values = array(
'id' => 1,
'name' => 'Fabien',
'country' => 'France'
);
$res = $db->autoExecute($table_name, $fields_values,
DB_AUTOQUERY_INSERT);
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
die($res->getMessage());
}
?> |
And that's all! The following query is built and executed:
INSERT INTO user (id, name, country)
VALUES (1, 'Fabien', 'France') |
And it's the same thing for UPDATE queries:
<?php
// Once you have a valid DB object named $db...
$table_name = 'user';
$fields_values = array(
'name' => 'Fabien',
'country' => 'France'
);
$res = $db->autoExecute($table_name, $fields_values,
DB_AUTOQUERY_UPDATE, 'id = 1');
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
die($res->getMessage());
}
?> |
which prepares and executes the following query:
UPDATE user SET name='Fabien', country='France'
WHERE id = 1 |
Be careful, if you don't specify any WHERE
statement, all the records
of the table will be updated.
| Внимание |
The values passed in $data must be literals.
Do not submit SQL functions (for example CURDATE()).
SQL functions that should be performed at execution time need
to be put in the prepared statement.
