RAW SQL Query with Zend Framework

Question

Is there a way to execute a SQL String as a query in Zend Framework?

I have a string like that:

$sql = \"SELECT * FROM testTable WHERE myColumn = 5\"         


        

Answer 1

You can use the same query in Zend format as

$select = db->select()->from(array('t' => 'testTable'))
                     ->$where= $this->getAdapter()->quoteInto('myColumn = ?', $s);
$stmt = $select->query();
$result = $stmt->fetchAll();

Answer 2

If you're creating a Zend_DB object at the start you can create a query using that. Have a look at this entry in the manual : https://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.db.statement.html

$stmt = $db->query(
            'SELECT * FROM bugs WHERE reported_by = ? AND bug_status = ?',
            array('goofy', 'FIXED')
        );

Or

$sql = 'SELECT * FROM bugs WHERE reported_by = ? AND bug_status = ?';
$stmt = new Zend_Db_Statement_Mysqli($db, $sql);

Answer 3

Here is an example for ZF1:

$db =Zend_Db_Table_Abstract::getDefaultAdapter();
$sql =    "select * from user"
$stmt = $db->query($sql);
$users =  $stmt->fetchAll();

Answer 4

If you are using tableGateway, you can run your raw SQL query using this statement,

$this->tableGateway->getAdapter()->driver->getConnection()->execute($sql);

where $sql pertains to your raw query. This can be useful for queries that do not have native ZF2 counterpart like TRUNCATE / INSERT SELECT statements.
