Base class for Phalcon\Db\Adapter adapters.

This class and its related classes provide a simple SQL database interface for Phalcon Framework. The Phalcon\Db is the basic class you use to connect your PHP application to an RDBMS. There is a different adapter class for each brand of RDBMS.

This component is intended to lower level database operations. If you want to interact with databases using higher level of abstraction use Phalcon\Mvc\Model.

Phalcon\Db\AbstractDb is an abstract class. You only can use it with a database adapter like Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo

use Phalcon\Db;
use Phalcon\Db\Exception;
use Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Mysql as MysqlConnection;

try {
    $connection = new MysqlConnection(
        [
            "host"     => "192.168.0.11",
            "username" => "sigma",
            "password" => "secret",
            "dbname"   => "blog",
            "port"     => "3306",
        ]
    );

    $result = $connection->query(
        "SELECTFROM co_invoices LIMIT 5"
    );

    $result->setFetchMode(Enum::FETCH_NUM);

    while ($invoice = $result->fetch()) {
        print_r($invoice);
    }
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;
}

 */
protected $escapeChar;

/**
 * @var array
 */
protected $customFunctions;

Methods

public function createMaterializedView( string $viewName, array $definition, string $schemaName = null ): string;
Generates SQL to create a materialized view. Supported by PostgreSQL (CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW name AS <sql>). Other dialects inherit this throw — MySQL and SQLite have no materialized-view concept.

public function createSavepoint( string $name ): string;
Generate SQL to create a new savepoint

public function dropMaterializedView( string $viewName, string $schemaName = null, bool $ifExists = bool ): string;
Generates SQL to drop a materialized view. Supported by PostgreSQL.

final public function escape( string $str, string $escapeChar = null ): string;
Escape identifiers

final public function escapeSchema( string $str, string $escapeChar = null ): string;
Escape Schema

public function forUpdate( string $sqlQuery, string $modifier = string ): string;
Returns a SQL modified with a FOR UPDATE clause. The optional modifier appends a row-lock disposition keyword.

$sql = $dialect->forUpdate("SELECTFROM robots");
echo $sql; // SELECTFROM robots FOR UPDATE

$sql = $dialect->forUpdate(
    "SELECTFROM robots",
    Dialect::LOCK_NOWAIT
);
echo $sql; // SELECTFROM robots FOR UPDATE NOWAIT

$sql = $dialect->forUpdate(
    "SELECTFROM robots",
    Dialect::LOCK_SKIP_LOCKED
);
echo $sql; // SELECTFROM robots FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED

final public function getColumnList( array $columnList, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Gets a list of columns with escaped identifiers

echo $dialect->getColumnList(
    [
        "column1",
        "column",
    ]
);

public function getCustomFunctions(): array;
Returns registered functions

final public function getSqlColumn( mixed $column, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve Column expressions

public function getSqlExpression( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Transforms an intermediate representation for an expression into a database system valid expression

final public function getSqlTable( mixed $table, string $escapeChar = null ): string;
Transform an intermediate representation of a schema/table into a database system valid expression

public function limit( string $sqlQuery, mixed $number ): string;
Generates the SQL for LIMIT clause

// SELECTFROM robots LIMIT 10
echo $dialect->limit(
    "SELECTFROM robots",
    10
);

// SELECTFROM robots LIMIT 10 OFFSET 50
echo $dialect->limit(
    "SELECTFROM robots",
    [10, 50]
);

public function onConflictUpdate( string $sqlQuery, array $conflictColumns, array $updateColumns ): string;
Appends an ON CONFLICT (col, ...) DO UPDATE SET col = excluded.col upsert clause to the supplied INSERT statement. The syntax is the SQL standard form recognized by PostgreSQL (9.5+) and SQLite (3.24+). MySQL overrides this method to throw because its ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE has a different shape (deferred to parser item #23).

public function refreshMaterializedView( string $viewName, string $schemaName = null, bool $concurrent = bool ): string;
Generates SQL to refresh a materialized view. Supported by PostgreSQL. Pass concurrent = true for REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY ..., which avoids blocking concurrent SELECTs (requires the view to have a unique index).

public function registerCustomFunction( string $name, callable $customFunction ): Dialect;
Registers custom SQL functions

public function releaseSavepoint( string $name ): string;
Generate SQL to release a savepoint

public function returning( string $sqlQuery, array $columns ): string;
Returns a SQL statement extended with a RETURNING clause so the INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE returns rows. Supported by PostgreSQL and SQLite 3.35+. Pass ["*"] for RETURNING, or a list of column names. The base implementation throws — MySQL inherits it because MySQL has no RETURNING construct.

public function rollbackSavepoint( string $name ): string;
Generate SQL to rollback a savepoint

public function select( array $definition ): string;
Builds a SELECT statement

public function supportsReleaseSavepoints(): bool;
Checks whether the platform supports releasing savepoints.

public function supportsSavepoints(): bool;
Checks whether the platform supports savepoints

protected function checkColumnType( ColumnInterface $column ): string;
Checks the column type and if not string it returns the type reference

protected function checkColumnTypeSql( ColumnInterface $column ): string;
Checks the column type and returns the updated SQL statement

protected function getCheckClause( CheckInterface $check, string $escapeChar = string ): string;
Builds a CHECK constraint clause from a CheckInterface, using the provided escape character for the constraint name (so each dialect gets its native quoting). Returns the clause body — the dialect's createTable() / addCheck() is expected to prefix ADD or place the result on its own line as appropriate.

protected function getColumnSize( ColumnInterface $column ): string;
Returns the size of the column enclosed in parentheses

protected function getColumnSizeAndScale( ColumnInterface $column ): string;
Returns the column size and scale enclosed in parentheses

protected function getGeneratedClause( ColumnInterface $column, bool $forceStored = bool ): string;
Builds the GENERATED ALWAYS AS (<expr>) VIRTUAL|STORED clause for a generated/computed column. Returns an empty string when the column is not generated. When forceStored is true the clause is always emitted as STORED regardless of the column's isGenerationStored() flag — PostgreSQL uses this since it only supports stored generated columns.

protected function getIndexColumnList( IndexInterface $index, bool $wrapExpressions = bool ): string;
Builds the per-index parenthesized column list, honoring per-column sort directions when the index declares any. Returns the bare comma-separated getColumnList() output when no directions are set, preserving the legacy rendering exactly. When directions are set, each column is followed by ASC or DESC; trailing positions absent from the directions array default to ASC.

final protected function getSqlExpressionAll( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null ): string;
Resolve

final protected function getSqlExpressionBinaryOperations( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve binary operations expressions

Resolve CONVERT of values encodings

final protected function getSqlExpressionFrom( mixed $expression, string $escapeChar = null ): string;
Resolve a FROM clause

final protected function getSqlExpressionFunctionCall( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve function calls

final protected function getSqlExpressionGroupBy( mixed $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve a GROUP BY clause

final protected function getSqlExpressionHaving( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve a HAVING clause

final protected function getSqlExpressionJoins( mixed $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve a JOINs clause

final protected function getSqlExpressionLimit( mixed $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve a LIMIT clause

final protected function getSqlExpressionList( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve Lists

final protected function getSqlExpressionObject( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve object expressions

final protected function getSqlExpressionOrderBy( mixed $expression, string $escapeChar = null, array $bindCounts = [] ): string;
Resolve an ORDER BY clause

final protected function getSqlExpressionQualified( array $expression, string $escapeChar = null ): string;
Resolve qualified expressions

public function dropColumn( string $tableName, string $schemaName, string $columnName ): string;
Generates SQL to delete a column from a table.

SQLite 3.35+ supports ALTER TABLE ... DROP COLUMN ... directly. On older versions the server rejects the statement at execution time; cphalcon no longer pre-empts that rejection at the dialect level so callers on 3.35+ can use the feature.

public function dropForeignKey( string $tableName, string $schemaName, string $referenceName ): string;

Db\Index

Source on GitHub

  • Namespace

    • Phalcon\Db

  • Extends

  • Implements

    • IndexInterface

Allows to define indexes to be used on tables. Indexes are a common way to enhance database performance. An index allows the database server to find and retrieve specific rows much faster than it could do without an index.

The constructor accepts either the legacy positional form (a plain array of column names) or a definition-array form (an associative array with a columns key); the latter is the path used by features such as invisible (MySQL 8.0+) and is the form that future per-index modifiers will extend.

// Legacy positional form
$unique = new \Phalcon\Db\Index(
    'column_UNIQUE',
    [
        'column',
    ],
    'UNIQUE'
);

$primary = new \Phalcon\Db\Index(
    'PRIMARY',
    [
        'column',
    ]
);

// Definition-array form (MySQL 8.0+ invisible index)
$hidden = new \Phalcon\Db\Index(
    'idx_hidden',
    [
        'columns'   => ['col1'],
        'type'      => '',
        'invisible' => true,
    ]
);

$connection->addIndex("robots", null, $unique);
$connection->addIndex("robots", null, $primary);
$connection->addIndex("robots", null, $hidden);

protected $where = ;

Methods

public function __construct( string $name, array $columnsOrDefinition, string $type = string );
Phalcon\Db\Index constructor.

Accepts either the legacy positional form (name, columns, type) or a definition-array form (name, ["columns" => [...], "type" => "...", "invisible" => true, ...]). Detection is based on the presence of a columns key in the second argument; when present, the third positional type argument is ignored in favor of the definition.

public function getColumns(): array;
Index columns

public function getDirections(): array;
Returns the per-column sort directions array (ASC / DESC). Empty array means the index was declared without explicit per-column directions and dialects emit the columns plainly. When populated, entries are aligned with getColumns(); missing trailing positions default to ASC at emission time.

public function getName(): string;
Index name

public function getType(): string;
Index type

public function getWhere(): string;
Returns the partial-index WHERE predicate, or an empty string when the index has none. Supported by PostgreSQL and SQLite; ignored by the MySQL dialect (MySQL has no partial-index feature).

public function isConcurrent(): bool;
Whether the index is built CONCURRENTLY (PostgreSQL only). MySQL and SQLite have no equivalent and ignore the flag.

public function isInvisible(): bool;
Whether the index is declared INVISIBLE (MySQL 8.0+). Invisible indexes are ignored by the optimizer but still maintained, so they can be flipped back to visible without a rebuild.
