Multiple Connections
|
|
====================
|
|
Idiorm now works with multiple conections. Most of the static functions
|
|
work with an optional connection name as an extra parameter. For the
|
|
``ORM::configure`` method, this means that when passing connection
|
|
strings for a new connection, the second parameter, which is typically
|
|
omitted, should be ``null``. In all cases, if a connection name is not
|
|
provided, it defaults to ``ORM::DEFAULT_CONNECTION``.
|
|
|
|
When chaining, once ``for_table()`` has been used in the chain, remaining
|
|
calls in the chain use the correct connection.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: php
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
// Default connection
|
|
ORM::configure('sqlite:./example.db');
|
|
|
|
// A named connection, where 'remote' is an arbitrary key name
|
|
ORM::configure('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=my_database', null, 'remote');
|
|
ORM::configure('username', 'database_user', 'remote');
|
|
ORM::configure('password', 'top_secret', 'remote');
|
|
|
|
// Using default connection
|
|
$person = ORM::for_table('person')->find_one(5);
|
|
|
|
// Using default connection, explicitly
|
|
$person = ORM::for_table('person', ORM::DEFAULT_CONNECTION)->find_one(5);
|
|
|
|
// Using named connection
|
|
$person = ORM::for_table('different_person', 'remote')->find_one(5);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Supported Methods
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
In each of these cases, the ``$connection_name`` parameter is optional, and is
|
|
an arbitrary key identifying the named connection.
|
|
|
|
* ``ORM::configure($key, $value, $connection_name)``
|
|
* ``ORM::for_table($table_name, $connection_name)``
|
|
* ``ORM::set_db($pdo, $connection_name)``
|
|
* ``ORM::get_db($connection_name)``
|
|
* ``ORM::raw_execute($query, $parameters, $connection_name)``
|
|
* ``ORM::get_last_query($connection_name)``
|
|
* ``ORM::get_query_log($connection_name)``
|
|
|
|
Of these methods, only ``ORM::get_last_query($connection_name)`` does *not*
|
|
fallback to the default connection when no connection name is passed.
|
|
Instead, passing no connection name (or ``null``) returns the most recent
|
|
query on *any* connection.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: php
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
// Using default connection, explicitly
|
|
$person = ORM::for_table('person')->find_one(5);
|
|
|
|
// Using named connection
|
|
$person = ORM::for_table('different_person', 'remote')->find_one(5);
|
|
|
|
// Last query on *any* connection
|
|
ORM::get_last_query(); // returns query on 'different_person' using 'remote'
|
|
|
|
// returns query on 'person' using default by passing in the connection name
|
|
ORM::get_last_query(ORM::DEFAULT_CONNECTION);
|
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
~~~~~
|
|
* **There is no support for joins across connections**
|
|
* Multiple connections do not share configuration settings. This means if
|
|
one connection has logging set to ``true`` and the other does not, only
|
|
queries from the logged connection will be available via
|
|
``ORM::get_last_query()`` and ``ORM::get_query_log()``.
|
|
* A new method has been added, ``ORM::get_connection_names()``, which returns
|
|
an array of connection names.
|
|
* Caching *should* work with multiple connections (remember to turn caching
|
|
on for each connection), but the unit tests are not robust. Please report
|
|
any errors.
