Initialization
--------------

[](#initialization)

To use this class, set your database connection constants, download and include 'MyPDO.php' into your project and instantiate a database connection.

```
define('DBHOST', '');  //eg: 127.0.0.1
define('DBUSER', '');  //eg: root
define('DBNAME', '');  //eg: admin
define('DBPASS', '');  //eg: password

require_once ('MyPDO.php');

$db = new MyPDO(DBHOST, DBUSER, DBNAME, DBPASS);
```

---

Query
-----

[](#query)

#### Run a query, any query..

[](#run-a-query-any-query)

To execute a string of SQL, pass the complete SQL string to **->query**

```
$sql = "INSERT INTO `names` VALUES
    (NULL, 'Joe',  'Bloggs'),
    (NULL, 'John', 'Bloggs'),
    (NULL, 'Jane', 'Bloggs');";

$db->query($sql);

$result = $db->execute();
```

Call **->execute** to execute the query. This returns true|false;

#### Run a query and return the results

[](#run-a-query-and-return-the-results)

To return the results from **->query** for use call **->fetchAll()** for multiple rows, **->fetchRow** for a single row or **->fetchOne** for a single value. Results are returned as an Array of Objects an Object or a value. Optionally, passing 'Array' to the fetch functions will return results as a Multi-dimensional Array.

```
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `names`";

$db->query($sql);

$results = $db->fetchAll();             // Multiple rows
//$result  = $db->fetchRow();           // Single row
//$result  = $db->fetchRow('Array');    // Single row, returned as an array
//$result  = $db->fetchAll('Array');    // Multiple rows, returned as a multi-dimensional array
//$result  = $db->fetchOne();           // Single value
```

On success, **$result** will be an Object Array (fetchAll) or an Object (fetchRow) or a value (fetchOne)

On failure, call **->getError** to display the SQL error message

#### Run a query using 'bound' params and return results

[](#run-a-query--using-bound-params-and-return-results)

To bind parameters to a query, pass the column identifier and value to **->bind()**. Repeat this for each bound parameter in order.

```
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `names` WHERE firstname = :firstname";

$db->query($sql);

$db->bind(':firstname', 'Chris');

$results = $db->fetchAll();

or

$results = $db->query($sql)->bind(':firstname', 'Chris')->fetchAll();
```

### Query Results

[](#query-results)

On failure, call **->getError** to display the SQL error message

```
if($results){
    foreach($results as $result){
        echo $result->{$column};
    }
} else {
    echo $db->getError();
}
```

#### Insert a record using 'bind' params

[](#insert-a-record-using-bind-params)

```
$table   = 'names';
$columns = array('firstname' => 'Fred', 'surname' => 'Bloggs');

$result = $db->insert($table,$columns);
```

### Insert Results

[](#insert-results)

```
if($result){
    echo $db->numRows() . ' records affected';
} else {
    echo $db->getError();
}
```

$id = $db->insertID();
```

[](#update-all-records-using-bind-params)

```
$table   = 'names';

$result = $db->update($table,$columns);
```

#### Update records using 'bind' params and 'where' string

[](#update-records-using-bind-params-and-where-string)

```
$table   = 'names';
$columns = array('firstname' => 'Fred 2', 'surname' => 'Bloggs 2');
$where   = "firstname = 'Fred' AND surname = 'Bloggs'";  //'WHERE' is not needed, or spaces

$result = $db->update($table,$columns,$where);
```

[](#update-specific-records-using-bind-params-and-where)

```
$table   = 'names';
$columns = array('firstname' => 'Fred 2', 'surname' => 'Bloggs 2');
$where   = array('firstname' => 'Fred',   'surname' => 'Bloggs');

$result = $db->update($table,$columns,$where);
