Data Mapper¶

NOTE

These components have been heavily influenced by Aura PHP and Atlas PHP

NOTE

The full implementation of a DataMapper is not yet complete. There are however a few components that can be used in any project, such as the Connection and Query/Select

Overview¶

The Data Mapper pattern as described by Martin Fowler in Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture is:

NOTE

A layer of Mappers that moves data between objects and a database while keeping them independent of each other and the mapper itself.

The Phalcon\DataMapper namespace contains components to help with accessing your data source, with the Data Mapper.

PDO¶

Connection¶

One of the components required by this implementation is a PDO connector. The Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection offers a wrapper to PHP's PDO implementation, making it easier to maintain connections.

Connecting to a source

Connecting to a database requires the DSN string as well as the username and the password of the account with permission to access the database we need to connect to.

The DSN is as follows:

Engine	DSN
Mysql	`mysql:host=<host>;dbname=<database name>;charset=<charset>;port=<port>`
Postgresql	`pgsql:host=<host>;dbname=<database name>`
Sqlite	`sqlite:<file>`

You will only need to substitute the values in <> with the respective values for your environment. The charset and port are optional for Mysql. For Sqlite you can use memory as the <file> but the database will not persist. A file name in an appropriate location will create the necessary storage file for Sqlite.

<?php

use Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection;

$host     = '127.0.0.1';
$database = 'phalon_test';
$charset  = 'utf8mb4';
$port     = 3306;
$username = 'phalcon';
$password = 'secret';

$dsn = sprintf(
    "mysql:host=%s;dbname=%s;charset=%s;port=%s",
    $host,
    $database,
    $charset,
    $port
);

$connection = new Connection($dsn, $username, $password);

$sql = '
    SELECT 
        inv_id, 
        inv_title 
    FROM 
        co_invoices 
    WHERE 
        inv_cst_id = :cst_id
';

$bind = [
    'cst_id' => 1
];

$result = $connection->fetchAll($statement, $bind);

Methods¶

public function __construct(
    string $dsn,
    string $username = null,
    string $password = null,
    array $options = [],
    array $queries = [],
    ProfilerInterface $profiler = null
)

Constructs the object. The $dsn, $username and $password are used to connect to the source. The $options allows for additional PDO options to be specified. The $queries array contains a list of queries that will be executed when the connection is established. The $profiler is an optional object implementing the ProfilerInterface interface, used to profile the connection.

public function __debugInfo():  array

The purpose of this method is to hide sensitive data from stack traces (such as usernames, passwords).

public function beginTransaction(): bool

Begins a transaction. If the profiler is enabled, the operation will be recorded.

public function commit(): bool

Commits the existing transaction. If the profiler is enabled, the operation will be recorded.

abstract public function connect(): void;

Connects to the database.

abstract public function disconnect(): void;

Disconnects from the database.

public function errorCode(): string | null

Gets the most recent error code.

public function errorInfo(): array

Gets the most recent error info.

public function exec(string $statement): int

Executes an SQL statement and returns the number of affected rows. If the profiler is enabled, the operation will be recorded.

public function fetchAffected(string $statement, array $values = []): int

Performs a statement and returns the number of affected rows.

public function fetchAll(string $statement, array $values = []): array

Fetches a sequential array of rows from the database; the rows are returned as associative arrays.

public function fetchAssoc(string $statement, array $values = []): array

Fetches an associative array of rows from the database; the rows are returned as associative arrays, and the array of rows is keyed on the first column of each row.

If multiple rows have the same first column value, the last row with that value will overwrite earlier rows. This method is more resource intensive and should be avoided if possible.

public function fetchColumn(
    string $statement,
    array $values = [],
    int $column = 0
): array

Fetches a column of rows as a sequential array (default first one).

public function fetchGroup(
    string $statement,
    array $values = [],
    int $flags = \PDO::FETCH_ASSOC
): array

Fetches multiple from the database as an associative array. The first column will be the index key. The default flags are PDO::FETCH_ASSOC | PDO::FETCH_GROUP

public function fetchObject(
    string $statement,
    array $values = [],
    string $className = "stdClass",
    array $arguments = []
): object

Fetches one row from the database as an object where the column values are mapped to object properties.

Since PDO injects property values before invoking the constructor, any initializations for defaults that you potentially have in your object's constructor, will override the values that have been injected by fetchObject. The default object returned is \stdClass

public function fetchObjects(
    string $statement,
    array $values = [],
    string $className = "stdClass",
    array $arguments = []
): array {

Fetches a sequential array of rows from the database; the rows are returned as objects where the column values are mapped to object properties.

Since PDO injects property values before invoking the constructor, any initializations for defaults that you potentially have in your object's constructor, will override the values that have been injected by fetchObject. The default object returned is \stdClass

public function fetchOne(string $statement, array $values = []): array

Fetches one row from the database as an associative array.

public function fetchPairs(string $statement, array $values = []): array

Fetches an associative array of rows as key-value pairs (first column is the key, second column is the value).

public function fetchValue(string $statement, array $values = [])

Fetches the very first value (i.e., first column of the first row).

public function getAdapter(): \PDO

Return the inner PDO (if any)

public function getAttribute(int $attribute): var

public function perform(
    string $statement,
    array $values = []
): \PDOStatement

Performs a query with bound values and returns the resulting PDOStatement; array $values will be passed through quote() and their respective placeholders will be replaced in the query string. If the profiler is enabled, the operation will be recorded.

public function prepare(
    string $statement,
    array $options = []
): \PDOStatement

Prepares an SQL statement for execution.

public function query(string $statement, ...$fetch): <\PDOStatement> | bool

Queries the database and returns a PDOStatement. If the profiler is enabled, the operation will be recorded.

public function quote(mixed $value, int $type = \PDO::PARAM_STR): string

Quotes a value for use in an SQL statement. This differs from PDO::quote() in that it will convert an array into a string of comma-separated quoted values. The default type is PDO::PARAM_STR

public function rollBack(): bool

Rolls back the current transaction, and restores autocommit mode. If the profiler is enabled, the operation will be recorded.

public function setAttribute(int $attribute, mixed $value): bool

Set a database connection attribute

public function setProfiler(ProfilerInterface $profiler)

    mixed $name,
    mixed $arguments
): void

Connection - Decorated¶

ConnectionLocator¶

Applications with high traffic may utilize multiple database servers. For instance, one could employ a high-powered database server for writes, while smaller ones with memory based tables for reads.

The Phalcon\DataMapper\ConnectionLocator allows you to define multiple Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection objects for reading and writing. All these objects are lazy-loaded, instantiated only when necessary.

Instantiation¶

The easiest way to create a Phalcon\DataMapper\ConnectionLocator to instantiate it and pass a Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection object to it. Additionally, the constructor can optionally receive two arrays, one for the write connections and one for the read connections. The first connection is always the master one.

$host     = '127.0.0.1';
$database = 'phalon_test';
$charset  = 'utf8mb4';
$port     = 3306;
$username = 'phalcon';
$password = 'secret';

$dsn = sprintf(
    "mysql:host=%s;dbname=%s;charset=%s;port=%s",
    $host,
    $database,
    $charset,
    $port
);

$connection = new Connection($dsn, $username, $password);

$locator = new ConnectionLocator($connection);

Methods¶

public function __construct(
    ConnectionInterface $master,
    array $read = [],
    array $write = []
)

Constructor.

public function getMaster():  ConnectionInterface

Returns the default connection object.

public function getRead(string $name = ""):  ConnectionInterface

Returns a read connection by name; if no name is given, picks a random connection; if no read connections are present, returns the default connection.

public function getWrite(string $name = ""):  ConnectionInterface

Returns a write connection by name; if no name is given, picks a random connection; if no write connections are present, returns the default connection.

public function setMaster(ConnectionInterface $callableObject):  ConnectionLocatorInterface

Sets the default connection factory.

public function setRead(
    string $name,
    callable $callableObject
):  ConnectionLocatorInterface

Sets a read connection factory by name.

public function setWrite(
    string $name,
    callable $callableObject
): ConnectionLocatorInterface

Sets a write connection factory by name.

protected function getConnection(
    string $type,
    string $name = ""
):  ConnectionInterface

Returns a connection by name.

Configuration¶

Once the Phalcon\DataMapper\ConnectionLocator is created, you can add as many additional read or write connections as required. You can do so either during the construction of the locator or at runtime.

Runtime¶

First, you create the Phalcon\DataMapper\ConnectionLocator object with the master connection. The master connection is the connection that will be used when read or write connections are not defined.

<?php

$locator = new ConnectionLocator(
    function () use ($options) {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.6.1;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
);

Now you can add as many read and write servers as required

<?php

// Write: master
$locator->addRead(
    'master',
    function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.4.1;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
);

// Read: slave01
$locator->addRead(
    'slave01',
    function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.8.1;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
);

// Read: slave02
$locator->addRead(
    'slave02',
    function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.8.2;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
);

// Read: slave03
$locator->addRead(
    'slave03',
    function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.8.3;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
);

On construction¶

You can also set everything up when the locator is being constructed. This is particularly useful when setting up the locator as a service in a DI container.

<?php

// Set up write connections
$write = [
    'master' => function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.4.1;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
];

// Set up read connections
$read = [
    'slave01' => function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.8.1;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    },
    'slave02' => function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.8.2;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    },
    'slave03' => function () {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.8.3;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    }
];

$locator = new ConnectionLocator(
    function () use ($options) {
        return new Connection(
            'mysql:host=10.4.6.1;dbname=phalcon_db;charset=utf8mb4;port=3306',
            'username', 
            'password'
        );
    },
    $read,
    $write
);

Getting Connections¶

Getting a connection from the locator will instantiate the object if it is not instantiated yet and then return it.

getMaster() will return the master/default Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection.
getRead() will return a random read Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection; after the first call, getRead() will always return the same Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection. (If no read Connections are defined, it will return the default connection.)
getWrite() will return a random write Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection; after the first call, getWrite() will always return the same Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection. (If no write Connections are defined, it will return the default connection.)

You can retrieve a specific read or write connection by passing its name (as it was registered), to the getRead() or getWrite() methods.

Profiler¶

The Phalcon\DataMapper\Profiler\Profiler is a component that allows you to profile database connections. That entails logging which queries have been executed and where they came from in the codebase, as well as what their execution time is. The Phalcon\DataMapper\Profiler\Profiler accepts a Phalcon\Logger\Logger object to log all the information collected to a file. By default, the Phalcon\DataMapper\Profiler\MemoryLogger is used.

The Phalcon\DataMapper\Profiler\Profiler can be activated by calling the setActive() method. The method accepts a boolean flag, which serves also as the deactivation method. Data is only logged when the profiler is active.

<?php

use Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection;
use Phalcon\DataMapper\Profiler\MemoryLogger;
use Phalcon\DataMapper\Profiler\Profiler;

$host     = '127.0.0.1';
$database = 'phalon_test';
$charset  = 'utf8mb4';
$port     = 3306;
$username = 'phalcon';
$password = 'secret';

$dsn = sprintf(
    "mysql:host=%s;dbname=%s;charset=%s;port=%s",
    $host,
    $database,
    $charset,
    $port
);

$profiler   = new Profiler(new MemoryLogger());
$connection = new Connection(
    $dsn, 
    $username, 
    $password,
    [
        PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => true, // PDO options
    ],
    [
        'SET NAMES utf8mb4', // startup queries
    ],
    $profiler
);

// Same profiler as the one we created above
$profiler = $connection->getProfiler();
$profiler->setActive(true)

and to retrieve the data stored:

<?php

$data = $connection->getProfiler()->getLogger()->getMessages();

var_dump($messages);

The messages are logged by default according to this pattern:

"{method} ({duration}s): {statement} {backtrace}"

You can customize the message format using the setLogFormat() on the profiler

<?php

$connection
    ->getProfiler()
    ->setLogFormat("{duration}: {method} {statement}{values}")

The parameters available are:

Parameter	Description
`{backtrace}`	The backtrace of where the query was executed
`{duration}`	The execution duration for the query
`{finish}`	The microtime when the profile finished
`{method}`	The method that was called the connection
`{start}`	The microtime when the profile began
`{statement}`	The query executed
`{values}`	Any values passed to the query

NOTE

The parameters must be enclosed in curly brackets {}

Query¶

Factory¶

The Phalcon\DataMapper\Query namespace offers a handy factory, which allows for a quick and easy creation of query objects, whether this is select, insert, update or `delete. The methods exposed by the Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\QueryFactory accept a Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection, binding the resulting object with the connection.

Methods¶

public function __construct(string selectClass = "")

$charset  = 'utf8mb4';
$port     = 3306;
$username = 'phalcon';
$password = 'secret';

$dsn = sprintf(
    "mysql:host=%s;dbname=%s;charset=%s;port=%s",
    $host,
    $database,
    $charset,

Activation¶

To instantiate a Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\Insert builder, you can use the Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\QueryFactory with a Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection.

<?php

use Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection;
use Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\QueryFactory;

$host     = '127.0.0.1';
$database = 'phalon_test';
$charset  = 'utf8mb4';
$port     = 3306;
$username = 'phalcon';
$password = 'secret';

$dsn = sprintf(
    "mysql:host=%s;dbname=%s;charset=%s;port=%s",
    $host,
    $database,
    $charset,
    $port
);

$connection = new Connection($dsn, $username, $password);
$factory    = new QueryFactory();
$insert     = $factory->newInsert($connection);

Build¶

The into() method is used to specify the table to insert data to.

$insert->into('co_invoices');

Columns¶

You can use the column() method to specify a column and its bound value. The last optional parameter is the bind type used by PDO. This is set automatically for string, integer, float and null values.

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->column('inv_total', 100.12)
;
// INSERT INTO co_invoices (inv_total) VALUES (:inv_total)

The columns() method returns the object back, thus offering a fluent interface:

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->column('inv_cst_id', 2)
    ->column('inv_total', 100.12);
    ->column('inv_status_flag', 0, PDO::PARAM_BOOL)
;
// INSERT INTO co_invoices (
//      inv_cst_id,
//      inv_total,
//      inv_status_flag
// ) VALUES (
//      :inv_cst_id,
//      :inv_total,
//      :inv_status_flag
// )

You can also use the columns() method which accepts an array of elements. If the key is a string it is considered the field name, and its value will be the value of the field. Alternatively, for an array element with a numeric key, the value of that element will be the field name.

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->columns(
        [
            'inv_cst_id', 
            'inv_total' => 100.12
        ]
    )
;
// INSERT INTO co_invoices (
//      inv_cst_id,
//      inv_total
// ) VALUES (
//      :inv_cst_id,
//      :inv_total
// )

NOTE

When using the columns() method, you cannot define the PDO type of each field/value pair.

Values¶

Bound values are automatically quoted and escaped. There are however cases, where we need to set a specific value to a field without it being escaped. A common example is to utilize the NOW() keyword assigned to a date field. For that purpose, we can use the set() method.

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->column('inv_total', 100.12)
    ->set('inv_created_date', 'NOW()')
;
// INSERT INTO co_invoices (
//      inv_total,
//      inv_created_date
// ) VALUES (
//      :inv_total,
//      NOW()
// )

Statement¶

The object can return the constructed statement by calling the getStatement() method.

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->column('inv_total', 100.12)
    ->set('inv_created_date', 'NOW()')
;

echo $insert->getStatement();
// INSERT INTO co_invoices (
//      inv_total,
//      inv_created_date
// ) VALUES (
//      :inv_total,
//      NOW()
// )

Returning¶

Some databases (notably PostgreSQL) recognize a RETURNING clause. You can use the returning() method to do so, passing an array of fields to be returned.

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->columns(
        [
            'inv_cst_id', 
            'inv_total' => 100.12
        ]
    )
    ->set('inv_id', null)
    ->set('inv_status_flag', 1)
    ->set('inv_created_date', 'NOW()')
    ->columns(
        [
            'inv_cst_id' => 1
        ]
    )
    ->returning(
        [
            'inv_id', 
            'inv_cst_id'
        ]
    )
    ->returning(
        [
            'inv_total'
        ]
    )
    ->set('inv_created_date', 'NOW()')
;

echo $insert->getStatement();
// INSERT INTO co_invoices (
//      inv_cst_id, 
//      inv_total, 
//      inv_id, 
//      inv_status_flag, 
//      inv_created_date
// ) VALUES (
//      :inv_cst_id, 
//      :inv_total, 
//      NULL, 
//      1, 
//      NOW()
// ) 
// RETURNING inv_id, inv_cst_id, inv_total

Flags¶

You can set flags recognized by your database server using the setFlag() method. For example, you can set a MySQL LOW_PRIORITY flag as follows:

$insert
    ->into('co_invoices')
    ->column('inv_total', 100.12)
    ->set('inv_created_date', 'NOW()')
    ->setFlag('LOW_PRIORITY')
;

echo $insert->getStatement();
// INSERT LOW_PRIORITY INTO co_invoices (
//      inv_total,
//      inv_created_date
// ) VALUES (
//      :inv_total,
//      NOW()
// )

Select¶

Activation¶

To instantiate a Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\Select builder, you can use the Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\QueryFactory with a Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection.

<?php

use Phalcon\DataMapper\Pdo\Connection;
use Phalcon\DataMapper\Query\QueryFactory;

$host     = '127.0.0.1';
$database = 'phalon_test';
$charset  = 'utf8mb4';
$port     = 3306;
$username = 'phalcon';
$password = 'secret';

$dsn = sprintf(
    "mysql:host=%s;dbname=%s;charset=%s;port=%s",
    $host,
    $database,
    $charset,
    $port
);

$connection = new Connection($dsn, $username, $password);
$factory    = new QueryFactory();
$select     = $factory->newSelect($connection);

Build¶

Columns¶

To add columns to the Select, use the columns() method and pass the columns as an array. If a key is defined as a string, it will be used as an alias for the column.

Column Names

<?php

$columns = [
    'inv_id', 
    'inv_cst_id', 
    'inv_status_flag', 
    'inv_title', 
    'inv_total', 
    'inv_created_at',
];

$select->columns($columns);

// SELECT
//      inv_id,
//      inv_cst_id,
//      inv_status_flag,
//      inv_title,
//      inv_total,
//      inv_created_at

Aliases

<?php

$columns = [
    'id'         => 'inv_id', 
    'customerId' => 'inv_cst_id', 
    'status'     => 'inv_status_flag', 
    'title'      => 'inv_title', 
    'total'      => 'inv_total', 
    'createdAt'  => 'inv_created_at',
];

$select->columns($columns);

// SELECT 
//      id, 
//      customerId, 
//      status, 
//      title, 
//      total, 
//      createdAt

Count

<?php

$columns = [
    'customerId' => 'inv_cst_id', 
    'totalCount' => 'COUNT(inv_total)'
];

$select->columns($columns);

// SELECT 
//      customerId, 
//      COUNT(inv_total) AS totalCount

`FROM`¶

To add a FROM clause, use the from() method:

Direct

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices

Alias

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices AS i')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices i

`JOIN`¶

To add a JOIN clause, use the join() method:

LEFT

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->join($select::JOIN_LEFT, 'co_customers', 'inv_cst_id = cst_id')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  LEFT JOIN co_customers ON inv_cst_id = cst_id

RIGHT

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->join($select::JOIN_RIGHT, 'co_customers', 'inv_cst_id = cst_id')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  RIGHT JOIN co_customers ON inv_cst_id = cst_id

INNER

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->join($select::JOIN_INNER, 'co_customers', 'inv_cst_id = cst_id')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  INNER JOIN co_customers ON inv_cst_id = cst_id

NATURAL

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices AS i')
    ->join($select::JOIN_NATURAL, 'co_customers', 'inv_cst_id = cst_id')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  NATURAL JOIN co_customers ON inv_cst_id = cst_id

With Bind

<?php

$status = 1;
$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->join(
        $select::JOIN_LEFT, 
        'co_customers', 
        'inv_cst_id = cst_id AND cst_status_flag = ',
        $status
    )
    ->appendJoin(' AND cst_name LIKE ', '%john%')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  LEFT JOIN co_customers ON inv_cst_id = cst_id 
//      AND cst_status_flag = :__1__
//      AND cst_name LIKE :__2__

WHERE¶

To add WHERE conditions, use the where() method. Additional calls to where() will implicitly AND the subsequent condition.

Single

<?php

$invoiceId = 1;
$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id > ', $invoiceId)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  WHERE inv_id > :__1__

andWhere

<?php

$customerIds = [1, 2, 3];
$status      = 1;
$totalValue  = 100;
$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id > 1')
    ->andWhere('inv_total > :total')
    ->andWhere('inv_cst_id IN ', $customerIds)
    ->appendWhere(' AND inv_status_flag = ' . $select->bindInline($status))
    ->bindValue('total', $totalValue)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  WHERE inv_id > 1
//      AND inv_total > :total 
//      AND inv_cst_id IN (:__1__, :__2__, :__3__) 
//      AND inv_status_flag = :__4__

orWhere

<?php

$status      = 1;
$totalValue  = 100;
$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->appendWhere('inv_total > ', $totalValue)
    ->orWhere("inv_status_flag = :status")
    ->bindValue('status', $status)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  WHERE inv_total > :__1__ "
//      OR inv_status_flag = :status

whereEquals

There is an additional whereEquals() convenience method that adds a series of AND equality conditions for you based on an array of key-value pairs:

Given an array value, the condition will be IN ().
Given an empty array, the condition will be FALSE (which means the query will return no results).
Given a null value, the condition will be IS NULL.
For all other values, the condition will be =.
If you pass a key without a value, that key will be used as a raw unescaped condition.

<?php

$invoiceIds = [1, 2, 3];
$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->whereEquals(
        [
            'inv_id'     => $invoiceIds,
            'inv_cst_id' => null,
            'inv_title'  => 'ACME',
            'inv_created_at = NOW()',
        ]
    )
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  WHERE inv_id IN (:__1__, :__2__, :__3__)
//      AND inv_cst_id IS NULL 
//      AND inv_title = :__4__ 
//      AND inv_created_at = NOW()

`GROUP BY`¶

To add GROUP BY expressions, use the groupBy() method and pass each expression as a variadic argument.

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->groupBy('inv_cst_id')
    ->groupBy('inv_status_flag')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  GROUP BY inv_cst_id, inv_status_flag

`HAVING`¶

The HAVING methods work just like their equivalent WHERE methods:

having() and andHaving() AND a HAVING condition
orHaving() ORs a HAVING condition
appendHaving() concatenates onto the end of the most recent HAVING condition

`ORDER BY`¶

To add ORDER BY expressions, use the orderBy() method and pass each expression an element of an array.

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->orderBy(
        [
            'inv_cst_id',
            'UPPER(inv_title) DESC',
        ]
    )
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  ORDER BY inv_cst_id, UPPER(inv_title) DESC

`LIMIT`, `OFFSET`, Pagination¶

To set a LIMIT and OFFSET, use the limit() and offset() methods.

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->limit(10)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  LIMIT 10

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->limit(10)
    ->offset(50)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  LIMIT 10 OFFSET 50

Pagination

Alternatively, you can limit by "pages" using the page() and perPage() methods:

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->page(5)
    ->perPage(10)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices 
//  LIMIT 10 OFFSET 5

`DISTINCT`¶

You can set the DISTINCT clause as follows:

<?php

$select
    ->distinct()
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->columns(
        [
            'inv_id', 
            'inc_cst_id'
        ]
    )
;

// SELECT DISTINCT inv_id, inc_cst_id
// FROM co_invoices

NOTE

The method accepts an optional boolean parameter to enable (true) or disable (false) the flag.

`FOR UPDATE`¶

You can set the FOR UPDATE clause as follows:

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->forUpdate()
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices FOR UPDATE

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->forUpdate()
    ->forUpdate(false)
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices

NOTE

The method accepts an optional boolean parameter to enable (true) or disable (false) the flag.

Flags¶

You can set flags recognized by your database server using the setFlag() method. For example, you can set a MySQL HIGH_PRIORITY flag like so:

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->setFlag('HIGH_PRIORITY')
;

// SELECT HIGH_PRIORITY * FROM co_invoices

`UNION`¶

To UNION or UNION ALL the current Select with a followup statement, call one the union*() methods:

<?php

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id = 1')
    ->union()
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id = 2')
    ->union()
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id = 3')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices WHERE inv_id = 1 UNION 
// SELECT * FROM co_invoices WHERE inv_id = 2 UNION
// SELECT * FROM co_invoices WHERE inv_id = 3

$select
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id = 1')
    ->unionAll()
    ->from('co_invoices')
    ->where('inv_id = 2')
;

// SELECT * FROM co_invoices WHERE inv_id = 1 UNION ALL 
// SELECT * FROM co_invoices WHERE inv_id = 2

Reset¶

The Select class exposes the reset() method, that allows you to reset the object to its original state and reuse it (e.g., to re-issue a statement to get a COUNT(*) without a LIMIT, to find the total number of rows to be paginated over).

Additionally, the following methods allow you to reset specific areas of the query:

resetColumns() - Resets the columns
resetFrom() - Resets the from
resetWhere() - Resets the where
resetGroupBy() - Resets the group by
resetHaving() - Resets the having
resetOrderBy() - Resets the order by
resetLimit() - Resets the limit and offset
resetFlags() - Resets the flags

Subselect Objects¶

If you want to create a subselect, call the subSelect() method. When you are done building the subselect, give it an alias using the asAlias() method; the object itself can be used in the desired condition or expression.

<?php

$select
    ->from(
        $select
            ->subSelect()
            ->columns("inv_id")
            ->from('co_invoices')
            ->asAlias('inv')
            ->getStatement()
    )
;

// SELECT *
// FROM (SELECT inv_id FROM co_invoices) AS inv
