sqlite_array_query

(PHP 5 < 5.4.0, PECL sqlite >= 1.0.0)

Execute a query against a given database and returns an array

array sqlite_array_query ( resource $dbhandle, string $query [, int $result_type = SQLITE_BOTH [, bool $decode_binary = true ]] )

array sqlite_array_query ( string $query , resource $dbhandle [, int $result_type = SQLITE_BOTH [, bool $decode_binary = true ]] )

Object oriented style (method):

public array SQLiteDatabase::arrayQuery ( string $query [, int $result_type = SQLITE_BOTH [, bool $decode_binary = true ]] )

sqlite_array_query() executes the given query and returns an array of the entire result set. It is similar to calling sqlite_query() and then sqlite_fetch_array() for each row in the result set. sqlite_array_query() is significantly faster than the aforementioned.

Tip

sqlite_array_query() is best suited to queries returning 45 rows or less. If you have more data than that, it is recommended that you write your scripts to use sqlite_unbuffered_query() instead for more optimal performance.

Parameters:

query

The query to be executed.

Data inside the query should be properly escaped.

dbhandle

The SQLite Database resource; returned from sqlite_open() when used procedurally. This parameter is not required when using the object-oriented method.

result_type

The optional result_type parameter accepts a constant and determines how the returned array will be indexed. Using SQLITE_ASSOC will return only associative indices (named fields) while SQLITE_NUM will return only numerical indices (ordinal field numbers). SQLITE_BOTH will return both associative and numerical indices. SQLITE_BOTH is the default for this function.

decode_binary

When the decode_binary parameter is set to TRUE (the default), PHP will decode the binary encoding it applied to the data if it was encoded using the sqlite_escape_string(). You should normally leave this value at its default, unless you are interoperating with databases created by other sqlite capable applications.

Returns:

Returns an array of the entire result set; FALSE otherwise.

The column names returned by SQLITE_ASSOC and SQLITE_BOTH will be case-folded according to the value of the sqlite.assoc_case configuration option.

Examples:

Procedural style

<?php
$dbhandle = sqlite_open('sqlitedb');
$result = sqlite_array_query($dbhandle, 'SELECT name, email FROM users LIMIT 25', SQLITE_ASSOC);
foreach ($result as $entry) {
    echo 'Name: ' . $entry['name'] . '  E-mail: ' . $entry['email'];
}
?>

Object-oriented style

<?php
$dbhandle = new SQLiteDatabase('sqlitedb');
$result = $dbhandle->arrayQuery('SELECT name, email FROM users LIMIT 25', SQLITE_ASSOC);
foreach ($result as $entry) {
    echo 'Name: ' . $entry['name'] . '  E-mail: ' . $entry['email'];
}
?>
