currently I am using:
$result = new SQLite3(sprintf("users/USERIDS_DB.sqlite"));
$numRows = $result->exec ("SELECT count(*) FROM USERIDS");
echo sprintf("the number of rows are: %d", $numRows);
but the result is 1 when it should be 6 (the number of rows I created using firefox sqlite3 addon)
Can anybody help please?
From the documentation:
public bool SQLite3::exec ( string $query )
Executes a result-less query against a given database.
This methods returns a boolean, not a result set. When you convert true
to an integer it will become 1
.
You should use SQLite3::query()
. Example (untested):
$rows = $result->query("SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM USERIDS");
$row = $rows->fetchArray();
$numRows = $row['count'];
Btw, naming the instance of the SQLite3 class $result
can be misleading (especially in a DB environment). I would call it $db
or $connection
.
$db = new SQLite3('filename.db3');
$count = $db->querySingle("SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM tablename");
echo $count;
$result = $db->query("SELECT * FROM db_name")
$row=$result->fetchArray(SQLITE3_ASSOC);
// check for empty result
if ($row != false) {
// do something here if record exists
}
<?php
function SqliteNumRows($query){
$numRows = 0;
while($rows = $query->fetchArray()){
++$numRows;
}
return $numRows;
}
?>
This really helped me it works actually you may try it
Here is a working way to get the number of rows since neither sqlite_num_rows($result)
nor $result->numRows()
works on SQLite3:
<?php
$db = new SQLite3('database.db');
$results = $db->query('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT `id`,* FROM `table` ORDER BY `id` ASC);');
while ($row = $results->fetchArray()) {
echo $row["COUNT(*)"];
}
?>
It's have benefit, when you have conditions in the count select
query:
$stmt = $db->prepare('SELECT COUNT(*) AS `count` FROM `tablename` WHERE `foo`=:foo');
$stmt->bindValue(':foo', $foo);
$stmt->execute();
$count = $stmt->fetchColumn();
echo $count;
