Zend_Db without Zend Framework [closed]

Answer 1

For Zend Framework 2.*, creating the adapter would be:

$db = new \Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter([
    'driver' => 'Pdo_Mysql',
    'host' => '127.0.0.1',
    'username' => 'webuser',
    'password' => 'xxxxxx',
    'database' => 'test',
]);

To create select:

$sql = new \Zend\Db\Sql\Sql($db);
$select = $sql->select()
    ->from('posts')
    ->where(array('cat_id' => $catId))
    ->order('date_posted DESC')
    ->limit(5);
$statement = $sql->prepareStatementForSqlObject($select);
$results = $statement->execute();

Or, if you want to get pure SQL from the $select:

$selectSql = $sql->getSqlStringForSqlObject($select);

Docs might be helpful. It can be even simpler if TableGateway is used.
