SQL-relay PHP module

PHP API


USING

You can use the module by loading it in your PHP script and calling SQL Relay functions.

For example:

dl("sql_relay.so");
$con=sqlrcon_alloc("adasz",9000,"","user1","password1",0,1);
$cur=sqlrcur_alloc($con);
sqlrcur_sendQuery($cur,"select table_name from user_tables");
sqlrcon_endSession($con);
for ($i=0; $i<sqlrcur_rowCount($cur); $i++)
{
  printf("%s\n",sqlrcur_getField($cur,$i,"table_name"));
}
sqlrcur_free($cur);
sqlrcon_free($con);

An alternative to running dl(sql_relay.so) is to put a line like:

extension=sql_relay.so

In your php.ini file. Doing this will improve performance as the library isn't loaded and unloaded each time a script runs, but only once when the web-server is started.


FUNCTIONS

  • int sqlrcon_alloc(string server, int port, string socket, string user, string password, int retrytime, int tries)

    Initiates a connection to "server" on "port" or to the unix "socket" on the local machine and authenticates with "user" and "password". Failed connections will be retried for "tries" times on interval "retrytime" or on for a default number of times on a default interval if left unspecified.

    If the "socket" parameter is nether NULL nor "" then an attempt will be made to connect through it before attempting to connect to "server" on "port". If it is NULL or "" then no attempt will be made to connect through the socket.*/

  • void sqlrcon_free(int sqlrconref)

    Disconnects and terminates the session if it hasn't been terminated already.

  • void sqlrcon_endSession(int sqlrconref)

    terminates the session

  • void sqlrcon_suspendSession(int sqlrconref)

    Disconnects this client from the current session but leaves the session open so that another client can connect to it using sqlrcon_resumeSession().

  • int sqlrcon_getConnectionPort(int sqlrconref)

    Returns the inet port that the client is communicating over. This parameter may be passed to another client for use in the sqlrcon_resumeSession() command.

  • string sqlrcon_getConnectionSocket(int sqlrconref)

    Returns the unix socket that the client is communicating over. This parameter may be passed to another client for use in the sqlrcon_resumeSession() command.

  • int sqlrcon_resumeSession(int sqlrconref, int port, string socket)

    Resumes a session previously left open using sqlrcon_suspendSession(). Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.

  • int sqlrcon_ping(int sqlrconref)

    Returns 1 if the database is up and 0 if it's down.

  • string sqlrcon_identify(int sqlrconref)

    Returns the type of database: oracle7, oracle8, postgresql, mysql, etc.

  • int sqlrcon_autoCommitOn(int sqlrconref)

    Instructs the database to perform a commit after every successful query.

  • int sqlrcon_autoCommitOff(int sqlrconref)

    Instructs the database to wait for the client to tell it when to commit.

  • int sqlrcon_commit(int sqlrconref)

    Issues a commit. Returns 1 if the commit succeeded, 0 if it failed and -1 if an error occurred.

  • int sqlrcon_rollback(int sqlrconref)

    Issues a rollback. Returns 1 if the rollback succeeded, 0 if it failed and -1 if an error occurred.

  • void sqlrcon_debugOn(int sqlrconref)

    Causes verbose debugging information to be sent to standard output. Another way to do this is to start a query with "-- debug\n".

  • void sqlrcon_debugOff(int sqlrconref)

    turns debugging off

  • int sqlrcon_getDebug(int sqlrconref)

    returns FALSE if debugging is off and TRUE if debugging is on

  • int sqlrcur_alloc(int sqlrconref)
  • void sqlrcur_free(int sqlrcur)
  • void sqlrcur_setResultSetBufferSize(int sqlrcurref, int rows)

    Sets the number of rows of the result set to buffer at a time. 0 (the default) means buffer the entire result set.

  • int sqlrcur_getResultSetBufferSize(int sqlrcurref)

    Returns the number of result set rows that will be buffered at a time or 0 for the entire result set.

  • void sqlrcur_dontGetColumnInfo(int sqlrcurref)

    Tells the server not to send any column info (names, types, sizes). If you don't need that info, you should call this method to improve performance.

  • void sqlrcur_getColumnInfo(int sqlrcurref)

    Tells the server to send column info.

  • void sqlrcur_cacheToFile(int sqlrcurref, string filename)

    Sets query caching on. Future queries will be cached to the file "filename". A default time-to-live of 10 minutes is also set. Note that once sqlrcur_cacheToFile() is called, the result sets of all future queries will be cached to that file until another call to sqlrcur_cacheToFile() changes which file to cache to or a call to sqlrcur_cacheOff() turns off caching.

  • void sqlrcur_setCacheTtl(int sqlrcurref, int ttl)

    Sets the time-to-live for cached result sets. The sqlr-cachemanger will remove each cached result set "ttl" seconds after it's created.

  • string sqlrcur_getCacheFileName(int sqlrcurref)

    Returns the name of the file containing the most recently cached result set.

  • void sqlrcur_cacheOff(int sqlrcurref)

    Sets query caching off.

If you don't need to use substitution or bind variables in your queries, use these two methods.

  • int sqlrcur_sendQuery(int sqlrcurref, string query)

    sends "query" and gets a return set. Returns TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.

  • int sqlrcur_sendFileQuery(int sqlrcurref, string path, string filename)

    Sends the query in file "path"/"filename" and gets a return set. Returns TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.

If you need to use substitution or bind variables, in your queries use the following methods. See the API documentation for more information about substitution and bind variables.

  • void sqlrcur_prepareQuery(int sqlrcurref, string query)

    Prepare to execute "query".

  • void sqlrcur_prepareFileQuery(int sqlrcurref, string path, string filename)

    Prepare to execute the contents of "path"/"filename".

  • void sqlrcur_substitution(int sqlrcurref, string variable, string value)
    void sqlrcur_substitution(int sqlrcurref, string variable, long value)
    void sqlrcur_substitution(int sqlrcurref, string variable, double value, short precision, short scale)

    Define a substitution variable.

  • void sqlrcur_clearBinds()

    Clear all bind variables.

  • void sqlrcur_inputBind(int sqlrcurref, string variable, string value)
    void sqlrcur_inputBind(int sqlrcurref, string variable, long value)
    void sqlrcur_inputBind(int sqlrcurref, string variable, double value, short precision, short scale)

    Define an input bind variable.

  • void sqlrcur_defineOutputBind(int sqlrcurref, string variable, int length)

    Define an output bind variable.

  • int sqlrcur_executeQuery(int sqlrcurref)

    Execute the query that was previously prepared and bound.

  • int sqlrcur_getOutputBind(int sqlrcurref, string variable)

    Get the value stored in a previously defined output bind variable.

  • int sqlrcur_openCachedResultSet(int sqlrcurref, string filename)

    Opens a cached result set as if a query that would have generated it had been executed. Returns TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.

  • int sqlrcur_colCount(int sqlrcurref)

    returns the number of columns in the current return set

  • int sqlrcur_rowCount(int sqlrcurref)

    returns the number of rows in the current return set

  • int sqlrcur_totalRows(int sqlrcurref)

    Returns the total number of rows that will be returned in the result set. Not all databases support this call. Don't use it for applications which are designed to be portable across databases. -1 is returned by databases which don't support this option.

  • int sqlrcur_affectedRows(int sqlrcurref)

    Returns the number of rows that were updated, inserted or deleted by the query. Not all databases support this call. Don't use it for applications which are designed to be portable across databases. -1 is returned by databases which don't support this option.

  • int sqlrcur_firstRowIndex(int sqlrcurref)

    Returns the index of the first buffered row. This is useful when buffering only part of the result set at a time.

  • int sqlrcur_endOfResultSet(int sqlrcurref)

    Returns 0 if part of the result set is still pending on the server and 1 if not. This method can only return 0 if setResultSetBufferSize() has been called with a parameter other than 0.

  • string sqlrcur_errorMessage(int sqlrcurref)

    If a query failed and generated an error, the error message is available here. If the query succeeded then this method returns FALSE

  • string sqlrcur_getNullsAsEmptyStrings(int sqlrcurref)
