- ⌂ query
- Methods
query::get_rows()
Similar to get(), except a rowset of results is returned instead of a collection, which is more efficient because full objects are not created.
Prototype
get_rows(array $options = []): collection
Parameters
- options - An associative array with zero or more of the following key/value pairs.
- checksum - If TRUE, a checksum unique to the resulting collection will be made available for retrieval with collection::get_result_checksum(). Otherwise do not produce a checksum (default).
- checksum_only - If TRUE, only produce the checksum, and do not return the results. This is the most efficient way to produce a checksum if you do not need the results.
- bind - An array of values to bind to ? placeholders, or an associative array of keys and values to bind to :key placeholders. As an alternative, call bind().
Return
A collection of objects resulting from the query, or FALSE if there was an error.
Example (Chained)
// create, assemble and execute the query as one chained statement
$contacts = $repo->query()
->select('Name', 'Phone');
->from('Contact');
->where('Name', 'John');
->get_rows();
// iterate through the collection results
foreach($contacts as $contact) {
print($contact['Name'] . ": " . $contact['Phone'] . "\n");
}
Example (Long-hand)
// create and assemble the query, one clause at a time
$query = $repo->query();
$query->select('Name', 'Phone');
$query->from('Contact');
$query->where('Name', 'John');
// execute the query assembled above
$contacts = $query->get_rows();
// iterate through the collection results
foreach($contacts as $contact) {
print($contact->Name . ": " . $contact->Phone . "\n");
}
