I have run into an issue while trying to return object data from my database. I followed this tutorial to build a DB wrapper and have been trying to extend the functionality of it to suit my needs. My problem is that when I use the DB class "get" method to return data, it also returns an instance of the PDO object itself. I am wondering how I parse this data so that I only return objects from the database, and not the database object itself. I want to be able to display different database values for each object eventually.
Here is all of my relevant code:
class DB {
private static $_instance = null; //stores instance of database
private $_pdo,
$_query,
$_error = false,
$_results,
$_count = 0;
private function __construct() {
try {
$this->_pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=' . Config::get('mysql/host') . ';dbname=' . Config::get('mysql/db'), Config::get('mysql/username'), Config::get('mysql/password'));
} catch(PDOException $e){
die($e->getMessage());
}
}
public static function getInstance() {
if(!isset(self::$_instance)){
self::$_instance = new DB();
}
return self::$_instance;
}
public function query($sql, $params = array()){
$this->_error = false;
if($this->_query = $this->_pdo->prepare($sql)) {
$x = 1;
if(count($params)) {
foreach($params as $param) {
$this->_query->bindValue($x, $param);
$x++;
}
}
if($this->_query->execute()) {
$this->_results = $this->_query->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
$this->_count = $this->_query->rowCount();
} else {
$this->_error = true;
}
}
return $this;
}
public function action($action, $table, $where = array()) {
if(count($where) === 3) {
$operators = array('=', '>', '<', '>=', '<=');
$field = $where[0];
$operator = $where[1];
$value = $where[2];
if(in_array($operator, $operators)) {
$sql = "{$action} FROM {$table} WHERE {$field} {$operator} ?";
if(!$this->query($sql, array($value))->error()) {
return $this;
}
}
} return $this;
}
public function get($table, $where) {
return $this->action('SELECT *', $table, $where);
}
}
class Schedule {
private $_db;
protected $_games = array();
public function __construct() {
$this->_db = DB::getInstance();
}
public function listGames() {
$data = $this->_db->get('games', array('id', '>', 0));
var_dump($data);
echo '<br>';
}
}
