pg_convert

pg_convert() checks and converts the values in assoc_array into suitable values for use in an SQL statement. Precondition for pg_convert() is the existence of a table table_name which has at least as many columns as assoc_array has elements. The fieldnames in table_name must match the indices in assoc_array and the corresponding datatypes must be compatible. Returns an array with the converted values on success, FALSE otherwise.

Note:

Since PHP 5.6.0, it accepts boolean values. It converted to PostgreSQL boolean. String representations of boolean value is also supported. NULL is converted to PostgreSQL NULL.

Prior to PHP 5.6.0, if there are boolean fields in table_name don't use the constant TRUE in assoc_array. It will be converted to the string 'TRUE' which is no valid entry for boolean fields in PostgreSQL. Use one of t, true, 1, y, yes instead.

PostgreSQL database connection resource.

Name of the table against which to convert types.

Data to be converted.

Any number of PGSQL_CONV_IGNORE_DEFAULT, PGSQL_CONV_FORCE_NULL or PGSQL_CONV_IGNORE_NOT_NULL, combined.

An array of converted values, or FALSE on error.

No longer experimental. Boolean/NULL data types are supported. Unknown/unsupported data types are escaped without validation. pg_convert() could be used with any data types.

<?php 
  $dbconn = pg_connect('dbname=foo');
  
  $tmp = array(
      'author' => 'Joe Thackery',
      'year' => 2005,
      'title' => 'My Life, by Joe Thackery'
  );
  
  $vals = pg_convert($dbconn, 'authors', $tmp);
?>
