Installation
============

[](#installation)

```
composer require marwelln/exists:~1.0

```

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

```
$exists = Marwelln\Exists::table('mytable')->where('statement', 'value')->check(); // true or false

$exists = (new Marwelln\Exists('mytable'))->where('statement', 'value')->check(); // true or false

```

Available methods
=================

[](#available-methods)

```
static table(string $table)

```

Sets the table we want to run `EXISTS` with. Can use constructor instead if wanted.

```
where(string $key, mixed $value, string $operator = '=') // WHERE key {$operator} value

whereBetween(string $key, string $field1, string $field2) // WHERE key BETWEEN field1 AND field2

whereNull(string $key) // WHERE key IS NULL

whereNotNull(string $key) // WHERE key IS NOT NULL

```

Add `WHERE` statements. This can be chained.

```
check()
// SELECT EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM table WHERE statements) AS `exists`

```

Run the query. Will return `true` or `false` depending on if the row existed or not.
