abstract Database
extends Kohana_Database

Database connection wrapper/helper.

You may get a database instance using Database::instance('name') where name is the config group.

This class provides connection instance management via Database Drivers, as well as quoting, escaping and other related functions. Querys are done using Database_Query and Database_Query_Builder objects, which can be easily created using the DB helper class.

Methods

public __construct( ) (defined in Kohana_Database)

Stores the database configuration locally and name the instance.

This method cannot be accessed directly, you must use Database::instance.

Return Values

  • void

Source Code

public function __construct($name, array $config)
{
    // Set the instance name
    $this->_instance = $name;

    // Store the config locally
    $this->_config = $config;

    if (empty($this->_config['table_prefix'])) {
        $this->_config['table_prefix'] = '';
    }
}

public __destruct( ) (defined in Kohana_Database)

Disconnect from the database when the object is destroyed.

// Destroy the database instance
unset(Database::instances[(string) $db], $db);

Calling unset($db) is not enough to destroy the database, as it will still be stored in Database::$instances.

Return Values

  • void

Source Code

public function __destruct()
{
    $this->disconnect();
}

public __toString( ) (defined in Kohana_Database)

Returns the database instance name.

echo (string) $db;

Return Values

  • string

Source Code

public function __toString()
{
    return $this->_instance;
}

abstract public begin( [ string $mode = NULL ] ) (defined in Kohana_Database)

Start a SQL transaction

// Start the transactions
$db->begin();

try {
     DB::insert('users')->values($user1)...
     DB::insert('users')->values($user2)...
     // Insert successful commit the changes
     $db->commit();
}
catch (Database_Exception $e)
{
     // Insert failed. Rolling back changes...
     $db->rollback();
 }

Parameters

  • string $mode = NULL - Transaction mode

Return Values

  • boolean

Source Code

abstract public function begin($mode = null);

abstract public commit( ) (defined in Kohana_Database)

Connect to the database. This is called automatically when the first query is executed.

$db->connect();

Tags

Return Values

  • void

Source Code

abstract public function connect();

public count_records( mixed $table ) (defined in Kohana_Database)

Count the number of records in a table.

            ->get('total_row_count');
}
