QueryBuilder
============

[](#querybuilder)

### Goals

[](#goals)

- Easily build up large queries piece by piece based on conditional logic in PHP
- Prevent syntactically invalid SQL
- Prevent SQL injection by making it difficult *not* to escape something
- Write clauses in any order
- Easy integration with legacy projects
    - Work with any SQL driver, even the deprecated `mysql_` functions
    - Work with new or existing connections

### License

[](#license)

QueryBuilder is released under the MIT License.
