I wrote up a PDO abstraction class with some tutorials and code bits from StackOverflow to make my life bit easier, however PDO stills seems to be a pain in the ass and makes me wonder if I'm either stupid or if PDO has a more larger learning curve as compared to good old MySQL.
Anyways, what I'm trying to do is create a Statistics class to count few rows without writing major queries right and left. I'm trying to get a count for the following tables. Contacts + Companies + Users
But it's not working for some reason. Most of the time I hit 500 error. And looking at the code it seems correct for most part, unless I'm missing something.
So here is the Database abstraction class lib/Database.php
class Database{
private $host = DB_HOST;
private $user = DB_USER;
private $pass = DB_PASS;
private $dbname = DB_NAME;
private $dbh;
private $error;
private $stmt;
public function __construct(){
// Set DSN
$dsn = 'mysql:host=' . $this->host . ';dbname=' . $this->dbname;
// Set options
$options = array(
PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true,
PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION
);
// Create a new PDO instanace
try{
$this->dbh = new PDO($dsn, $this->user, $this->pass, $options);
}
// Catch any errors
catch(PDOException $e){
$this->error = $e->getMessage();
}
}
# PDO Prepare
public function query($query){
$this->stmt = $this->dbh->prepare($query);
}
# PDO Count All
public function countAll($value){
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `$value`";
$this->stmt = $this->dbh->prepare($sql);
try { $this->stmt = $this->execute(); } catch(PDOException $e) { $this->error = $e->getMessage(); }
return $this->stmt->rowCount();
}
# PDO Bind
public function bind($param, $value, $type = null){
if (is_null($type)) {
switch (true) {
case is_int($value):
$type = PDO::PARAM_INT;
break;
case is_bool($value):
$type = PDO::PARAM_BOOL;
break;
case is_null($value):
$type = PDO::PARAM_NULL;
break;
default:
$type = PDO::PARAM_STR;
}
}
$this->stmt->bindValue($param, $value, $type);
}
# PDO Execute
public function execute(){
return $this->stmt->execute();
}
# PDO Multiple Records
public function resultset(){
$this->execute();
return $this->stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
}
# PDO Single Record
public function single(){
$this->execute();
return $this->stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
}
# PDO Count
public function rowCount(){
return $this->stmt->rowCount();
}
# PDO Last Insert ID
public function lastInsertId(){
return $this->dbh->lastInsertId();
}
# PDO Transactions begin / end / cancel
public function beginTransaction(){
return $this->dbh->beginTransaction();
}
public function endTransaction(){
return $this->dbh->commit();
}
public function cancelTransaction(){
return $this->dbh->rollBack();
}
# PDO Debug Dump
public function debugDumpParams(){
return $this->stmt->debugDumpParams();
}
}
And here is the Statistics class lib/Stats.class.php
class Stats{
private $_db;
public function __construct(Database $db){
$this->_db = $db;
}
public function countContacts() {
$this->_db->query('select count(*) from contacts');
$this->_db->fetchColumn();
}
public function countCompanies() {
$this->_db->query('select count(*) from companies');
$this->_db->fetchColumn();
}
public function countUsers() {
$this->_db->query('select count(*) from users');
$this->_db->fetchColumn();
}
public function countInvoices() {
$this->_db->query('select count(*) from invoices');
$this->_db->fetchColumn();
}
}
And here is how I make the call on say index.php
$database = new Database();
$stats = new Stats($database);
echo $stats->countContacts();
The connection values are passed in the background as they are included in the header of the Template file.
Any suggestions on what im doing wrong?
