Pheasant-adodb
==============

[](#pheasant-adodb)

Implements a subset of the [ADOdb](http://phplens.com/adodb/) API using [Pheasant](http://getpheasant.com/)

Example Usage
-------------

[](#example-usage)

```
# set up Pheasant connection
$pheasant = \Pheasant::setup('mysql://user@localhost/mydb');
$adodbConnection = new \PheasantAdodb\Connection($pheasant->connection());

# start using ADOdb API
$adodbConnection->Execute("SELECT 1,2,3")->GetAll();
```

Or as a drop in replacement for adodb, you can use the compatability include files

```
# include compatibility files
require_once('adodb/adodb.inc.php');
require_once('adodb/adodb-exceptions.inc.php');

# instantiate ADOdb, set fetch mode
$adodbConnection = ADONewConnection('mysql://user@localhost/mydb');
$adodbConnection->setFetchMode(ADODB_FETCH_ASSOC);

# start using ADOdb API
$adodbConnection->Execute("SELECT 1,2,3")->GetAll();
```

Limitations and assumptions
---------------------------

[](#limitations-and-assumptions)

- Tries to match the behavour of ADOdb v4.81 with the adodb-mysqlt driver only
- `->Replace(` does not support disabling auto quoting
- Every field is escaped as if it were a string
- Magic quotes not supported
- If instantiated directly
    - Assumes ADODB\_FETCH\_ASSOC as the only fetchmode
    - Throws exceptions instead of returning error codes
- If instantiated via ADONewConnection
    - requires `->setFetchMode(ADODB_FETCH_ASSOC)` to be called
    - returns error codes unless `adodb-exceptions.inc.php` is included

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

The testsuite uses the real adodb (with mysqlt driver) to compare the results from API calls.

```
composer install --dev
mysql -e 'create database pheasantadodb_test1;'
mysql -e 'create database pheasantadodb_test2;'
phpunit
```
