Examples
--------

[](#examples)

### Database DSN

[](#database-dsn)

The `DatabaseDsnParser` class is responsible for parsing database DSNs into arrays compatible with [Doctrine DBAL's driver manager](http://doctrine-dbal.readthedocs.org/en/latest/reference/configuration.html).

The following drivers are currently supported:

- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- SQLite

```
use Icecave\Lace\DatabaseDsnParser;

$parser = new DatabaseDsnParser;
$options = $parser->parse('postgres://username:password@hostname:1234/database');

print_r($options);
```

```
Array
(
    [driver] => pdo_pgsql
    [user] => username
    [password] => password
    [host] => hostname
    [port] => 1234
    [dbname] => database
)

```

### Cache DSN

[](#cache-dsn)

The `CacheDsnParser` class is responsible for parsing DSNs into arrays with the necessary information.

The following drivers are currently supported:

- Redis

```
use Icecave\Lace\CacheDsnParser;

$parser = new CacheDsnParser;
$options = $parser->parse('redis://username:password@hostname:1234');

print_r($options);
```

```
Array
(
    [host] => hostname
    [port] => 1234
    [password] => password
)

```
