Because it extends PDO, existing code that uses PDO can use this without any changes to the existing code. 6.0.1(1y ago)128↓66.7%MITPHPPHP ^8.0 || ^8.1 || ^8.2 || ^8.3 || ^8.4CI passing Since Nov 29Pushed 11mo agoCompare [ Source](https://github.com/srjlewis/Aura.Sql)[ Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/srjlewis/aura-sql)[ Docs](https://github.com/auraphp/Aura.Sql)[ RSS](/packages/srjlewis-aura-sql/feed)WikiDiscussions 6.x Synced 1mo ago READMEChangelogDependencies (3)Versions (42)Used By (0) Aura.Sql ======== [](#aurasql) Provides an extension to the native [PDO](http://php.net/PDO) along with a profiler and connection locator. Because *ExtendedPdo* is an extension of the native *PDO*, code already using the native *PDO* or typehinted to the native *PDO* can use *ExtendedPdo* without any changes. Added functionality in *Aura.Sql* over the native *PDO* includes: - **Lazy connection.** *ExtendedPdo* connects to the database only on method calls that require a connection. This means you can create an instance and not incur the cost of a connection if you never make a query. - **Decoration.** *DecoratedPdo* can be used to decorate an existing PDO instance. This means that a PDO instance can be "extended" **at runtime** to provide the *ExtendedPdo* behaviors. - **Array quoting.** The `quote()` method will accept an array as input, and return a string of comma-separated quoted values. - **New `perform()` method.** The `perform()` method acts just like `query()`, but binds values to a prepared statement as part of the call. In addition, placeholders that represent array values will be replaced with comma- separated quoted values. This means you can bind an array of values to a placeholder used with an `IN (...)` condition when using `perform()`. - **New `fetch*()` methods.** The new `fetch*()` methods provide for commonly-used fetch actions. For example, you can call `fetchAll()` directly on the instance instead of having to prepare a statement, bind values, execute, and then fetch from the prepared statement. All of the `fetch*()`methods take an array of values to bind to to the query statement, and use the new `perform()` method internally. - **New `yield*()` methods.** These are complements to the `fetch*()` methods that `yield` results instead of `return`ing them. - **Exceptions by default.** *ExtendedPdo* starts in the `ERRMODE_EXCEPTION`mode for error reporting instead of the `ERRMODE_SILENT` mode. - **Profiler.** An optional query profiler is provided, along with an interface for other implementations, that logs to any PSR-3 interface. - **Connection locator.** A optional lazy-loading service locator is provided for picking different database connections (default, read, and write). Installation and Autoloading ---------------------------- [](#installation-and-autoloading) This package is installable and PSR-4 autoloadable via Composer as [aura/sql](https://packagist.org/packages/aura/sql). Alternatively, [download a release](https://github.com/auraphp/Aura.Sql/releases), or clone this repository, then map the `Aura\Sql\` namespace to the package `src/` directory. Dependencies ------------ [](#dependencies) Version 6.x is compatible with PHP 8.4 and above. If you're running PHP 8.1-8.3, please use version 5.x. We recommend using the latest available version of PHP as a matter of principle. Aura library packages may sometimes depend on external interfaces, but never on external implementations. This allows compliance with community standards without compromising flexibility. For specifics, please examine the package [composer.json](./composer.json) file.
