I'm trying to dynamically bind mysql_stmt parameters and get the result in an associative array. I've found this post here on stackoverflow where Amber posted an answer with the following code:
Original post: How to make a proper mysqli extension class with prepared statements?
"Assuming you're actually wanting to write your own version (as opposed to utilizing one of the existing libraries other answers have suggested - and those are good options, too)...
Here are a couple of functions which you may find it useful to examine. The first allows you to bind the results of a query to an associative array, and the second allows you to pass in two arrays, one an ordered array of keys and the other an associative array of data for those keys and have that data bound into a prepared statement:"
function stmt_bind_assoc (&$stmt, &$out) {
$data = mysqli_stmt_result_metadata($stmt);
$fields = array();
$out = array();
$fields[0] = $stmt;
$count = 1;
while($field = mysqli_fetch_field($data)) {
$fields[$count] = &$out[$field->name];
$count++;
}
call_user_func_array(mysqli_stmt_bind_result, $fields);
}
function stmt_bind_params($stmt, $fields, $data) {
// Dynamically build up the arguments for bind_param
$paramstr = '';
$params = array();
foreach($fields as $key)
{
if(is_float($data[$key]))
$paramstr .= 'd';
elseif(is_int($data[$key]))
$paramstr .= 'i';
else
$paramstr .= 's';
$params[] = $data[$key];
}
array_unshift($params, $stmt, $paramstr);
// and then call bind_param with the proper arguments
call_user_func_array('mysqli_stmt_bind_param', $params);
}
I tried studying the code to understand what it does and I've made the second function work properly but I don't know what I should do to be able to utilize the first function. How do I use it to retrieve an array similar to mysqli_result::fetch_assoc()?
I want to be able to utilize the result in such a way like you used to do with:
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo $row['foo']." ".$row['bar'];
}
Please help me to make some progress with this :)
Okay, here is a way to do it:
Edited, to fix bug when fetching multiple rows
$sql = "SELECT `first_name`,`last_name` FROM `users` WHERE `country` =? AND `state`=?";
$params = array('Australia','Victoria');
/*
In my real app the below code is wrapped up in a class
But this is just for example's sake.
You could easily throw it in a function or class
*/
// This will loop through params, and generate types. e.g. 'ss'
$types = '';
foreach($params as $param) {
if(is_int($param)) {
$types .= 'i'; //integer
} elseif (is_float($param)) {
$types .= 'd'; //double
} elseif (is_string($param)) {
$types .= 's'; //string
} else {
$types .= 'b'; //blob and unknown
}
}
array_unshift($params, $types);
// Start stmt
$query = $this->connection->stmt_init(); // $this->connection is the mysqli connection instance
if($query->prepare($sql)) {
// Bind Params
call_user_func_array(array($query,'bind_param'),$params);
$query->execute();
// Get metadata for field names
$meta = $query->result_metadata();
// initialise some empty arrays
$fields = $results = array();
// This is the tricky bit dynamically creating an array of variables to use
// to bind the results
while ($field = $meta->fetch_field()) {
$var = $field->name;
$$var = null;
$fields[$var] = &$$var;
}
$fieldCount = count($fieldNames);
// Bind Results
call_user_func_array(array($query,'bind_result'),$fields);
$i=0;
while ($query->fetch()){
for($l=0;$l<$fieldCount;$l++) $results[$i][$fieldNames[$l]] = $fields[$fieldNames[$l]];
$i++;
}
$query->close();
// And now we have a beautiful
// array of results, just like
//fetch_assoc
echo "<pre>";
print_r($results);
echo "</pre>";
}
The Answer from Emmanuel works fine, if only one row is selected! If the query select multiple rows, the $results-Array holds for every row a result, but the result is always filled with the last entry. With a little change in the fetch()-while it work well.
$sqlStmt is an string, filled with the mysql-query
$params is an array, filled with the variables that should passed
$results is an empty array, that holds the result
if (!is_string($sqlStmt) || empty($sqlStmt)) {
return false;
}
// initialise some empty arrays
$fields = array();
$results = array();
if ($stmt = $this->prepare($sqlStmt)) {
// bind params if they are set
if (!empty($params)) {
$types = '';
foreach($params as $param) {
// set param type
if (is_string($param)) {
$types .= 's'; // strings
} else if (is_int($param)) {
$types .= 'i'; // integer
} else if (is_float($param)) {
$types .= 'd'; // double
} else {
$types .= 'b'; // default: blob and unknown types
}
}
$bind_names[] = $types;
for ($i=0; $i<count($params);$i++) {
$bind_name = 'bind' . $i;
$$bind_name = $params[$i];
$bind_names[] = &$$bind_name;
}
call_user_func_array(array($stmt,'bind_param'),$bind_names);
}
// execute query
$stmt->execute();
// Get metadata for field names
$meta = $stmt->result_metadata();
// This is the tricky bit dynamically creating an array of variables to use
// to bind the results
while ($field = $meta->fetch_field()) {
$var = $field->name;
$$var = null;
$fields[$var] = &$$var;
}
// Bind Results
call_user_func_array(array($stmt,'bind_result'),$fields);
// Fetch Results
$i = 0;
while ($stmt->fetch()) {
$results[$i] = array();
foreach($fields as $k => $v)
$results[$i][$k] = $v;
$i++;
}
// close statement
$stmt->close();
}
Just to compare excellent answers from @Emmanuel and @matzino with the code you can get if choose PDO over mysqli:
$sql = "SELECT `first_name`,`last_name` FROM `users` WHERE `country` =? AND `state`=?";
$params = array('Australia','Victoria');
$stm = $query->prepare($sql);
$stm->execute($params);
$results = $stm->fetchAll(); // or fetch() or fetchColumn() depends on expected type
whoops, that's all?
After using the answer above I have figured out that there was some cleanup needed for myself, particularly the 'fieldNames[]' portion. The code below is in procedural style. I hope it will come of use to someone.
I cut the code from a class I made that can dynamically query data. There are a few things I removed to make it easier to read. In the class I have I allow the user to define definitions tables and foreign keys so that data entry on the front-end is restricted as well as filter and sort options for said related data. These are all parameters I removed as well as the automated query builder.
$query = "SELECT `first_name`,`last_name` FROM `users` WHERE `country` =? AND `state`=?";
$params = array('Australia','Victoria');
////////////// GENERATE PARAMETER TYPES IF ANY //////////////
// This will loop through parameters, and generate types. ex: 'ss'
$types = '';
$params_size = sizeof($params);
if($params_size > 0)
{
foreach($params as $param)
{
if(is_int($param))
{
$types .= 'i'; //integer
}else if(is_float($param))
{
$types .= 'd'; //double
}else if(is_string($param))
{
$types .= 's'; //string
}else
{
$types .= 'b'; //blob and unknown
}
}
array_unshift($params, $types);
}
