How do you manage SQL Queries

Question

At the moment my code (PHP) has too many SQL queries in it. eg...

// not a real example, but you get the idea...
$results = $db->GetResults(\"SELECT * FRO         


        

Answer 1

I'd move all the SQL to a separate Perl module (.pm) Many queries could reuse the same functions, with slightly different parameters.

A common mistake for developers is to dive into ORM libraries, parametrized queries and stored procedures. We then work for months in a row to make the code "better", but it's only "better" in a development kind of way. You're not making any new features!

Use complexity in your code only to address customer needs.
