<h1>Queries</h1> |
|
63 |
||
64 |
<h2>$this->db->query();</h2> |
|
65 |
||
66 |
<p>To submit a query, use the following function:</p> |
|
67 |
||
68 |
<code>$this->db->query('YOUR QUERY HERE');</code> |
|
69 |
||
70 |
<p>The <dfn>query()</dfn> function returns a database result <strong>object</strong> when "read" type queries are run, |
|
71 |
which you can use to <a href="results.html">show your results</a>. When "write" type queries are run it simply returns TRUE or FALSE |
|
72 |
depending on success or failure. When retrieving data you will typically assign the query to your own variable, like this:</p> |
|
73 |
||
74 |
<code><var>$query</var> = $this->db->query('YOUR QUERY HERE');</code> |
|
75 |
||
76 |
<h2>$this->db->simple_query();</h2> |
|
77 |
||
78 |
<p>This is a simplified version of the <dfn>$this->db->query()</dfn> function. It ONLY returns TRUE/FALSE on success or failure. |
|
79 |
It DOES NOT return a database result set, nor does it set the query timer, or compile bind data, or store your query for debugging. |
|
80 |
It simply lets you submit a query. Most users will rarely use this function.</p> |
|
81 |
||
82 |
||
83 |
<h1>Working with Database prefixes manually</h1> |
|
84 |
<p>If you have configured a database prefix and would like to prepend it to a table name for use in a native SQL query for example, then you can use the following:</p> |
|
85 |
<p><code>$this->db->dbprefix('tablename');<br /> |
|
86 |
// outputs prefix_tablename</code></p> |
|
87 |
||
88 |
<p>If for any reason you would like to change the prefix programatically without needing to create a new connection, you can use this method:</p> |
|
89 |
<p><code>$this->db->set_dbprefix('newprefix');<br /><br /> |
|
90 |
$this->db->dbprefix('tablename');<br /> |
|
91 |
// outputs newprefix_tablename</code></p> |
|
92 |
||
93 |
||
94 |
<h1>Protecting identifiers</h1> |
|
95 |
<p>In many databases it is advisable to protect table and field names - for example with backticks in MySQL. <strong>Active Record queries are automatically protected</strong>, however if you need to manually protect an identifier you can use:</p> |
|
96 |
<p><code>$this->db->protect_identifiers('table_name');</code></p> |
|
97 |
||
98 |
<p>This function will also add a table prefix to your table, assuming you have a prefix specified in your database config file. To enable the prefixing set <kbd>TRUE</kbd> (boolen) via the second parameter:</p> |
|
99 |
<p><code>$this->db->protect_identifiers('table_name', <kbd>TRUE</kbd>);</code></p> |
|
100 |
||
101 |
||
102 |
<h1>Escaping Queries</h1> |
|
103 |
<p>It's a very good security practice to escape your data before submitting it into your database. |
|
104 |
CodeIgniter has three methods that help you do this:</p> |
|
105 |
||
106 |
<ol> |
|
107 |
<li><strong>$this->db->escape()</strong> This function determines the data type so that it |
|
108 |
can escape only string data. It also automatically adds single quotes around the data so you don't have to: |
|
109 |
||
110 |
<code>$sql = "INSERT INTO table (title) VALUES(".$this->db->escape($title).")";</code></li> |
|
111 |
||
112 |
<li><strong>$this->db->escape_str()</strong> This function escapes the data passed to it, regardless of type. |
|
113 |
Most of the time you'll use the above function rather than this one. Use the function like this: |
|
114 |
||
115 |
<code>$sql = "INSERT INTO table (title) VALUES('".$this->db->escape_str($title)."')";</code></li> |
|
116 |
||
117 |
<li><strong>$this->db->escape_like_str()</strong> This method should be used when strings are to be used in LIKE |
|
118 |
conditions so that LIKE wildcards ('%', '_') in the string are also properly escaped. |
|
119 |
||
120 |
<code>$search = '20% raise';<br /> |
|
121 |
$sql = "SELECT id FROM table WHERE column LIKE '%".$this->db->escape_like_str($search)."%'";</code></li> |
|
122 |
||
123 |
</ol> |
|
124 |
||
125 |
||
126 |
<h1>Query Bindings</h1> |
|
127 |
||
128 |
||
129 |
<p>Bindings enable you to simplify your query syntax by letting the system put the queries together for you. Consider the following example:</p> |
|
130 |
||
131 |
<code> |
|
132 |
$sql = "SELECT * FROM some_table WHERE id = <var>?</var> AND status = <var>?</var> AND author = <var>?</var>"; |
|
133 |
<br /><br /> |
|
134 |
$this->db->query($sql, array(3, 'live', 'Rick')); |
|
135 |
</code> |
|
136 |
||
137 |
<p>The question marks in the query are automatically replaced with the values in the array in the second parameter of the query function.</p> |
|
138 |
<p class="important">The secondary benefit of using binds is that the values are automatically escaped, producing safer queries. You don't have to remember to manually escape data; the engine does it automatically for you.</p> |
