It has been replaced by [geeShoe/DbLib](https://github.com/geeShoe/DbLib) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [](#dbclass-php-has-been-depreciated-it-has-been-replaced-by-geeshoedblib) Class for connecting to mysql databases that extends the PHP PDO extension. The goal is to automate many common mySql methods for projects that rely heavily on mysql. Please note that this project is in initial development and as such, some documentation may be incomplete. Getting Started --------------- [](#getting-started) These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system. ### Prerequisites [](#prerequisites) Current development of the project is being done with PHP 7.2, however earlier versions of PHP that support the mysql pdo extension will work. To check if the PDO mysql driver is enabled, run the following command in the CLI or add it to a page in your webroot ``` phpinfo(); ``` and ensure PDO drivers lists mysql. If it doesn't or you cannot find any mention of PDO in phpinfo(). You may need to recompile PHP using: ``` ./configure --with-pdo-mysql ``` ### Installing [](#installing) To add DbClass to your project, run: ``` composer require geeshoe/dbclass ``` If you prefer to use the development branch of dbClass-php, change the following line of code in the composer.json file. ``` composer require geeshoe/dbclass dev-develop ``` ### Configure [](#configure) Copy the included sample\_config.ini to the parent directory of your vendor folder and rename it to DbConfig.ini. Change the values in the mysql section to reflect your database configuration. Setting AltPath to /some/other/path/config.ini will use the configuration directives in the specified config file rather than the ones in DbConfig.ini. ``` [config] AltPath = [mysql] hostName = 127.0.0.1 //Points to the mysql server. Usually 127.0.0.1 or localhost port = 3306 //Typically the mysql port is 3306 dataBase = dbClassTest //The name of the database which you will be using. userName = testUser //Both the username and password for the mysql account used to manipulate the mysql database passWord = me6wp3Ha92n ``` ### Documentation [](#documentation) The API is documented in docs/api/index.html @TODO - Provide examples on how to use the dam thing. ### Authors [](#authors) - **Jesse Rushlow** - *Lead developer* - [geeShoe Development](http://geeshoe.com) Source available at () For questions, comments, or rant's, drop me a line at ``` jr (at) geeshoe (dot) com ``` ### Health Score 26 — LowBetter than 40% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity9 Limited adoption so far Community8 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity56 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
