This library is intended for loading data from a MySQL (mysqlnd is required) database, based on expressions passed from a client by a DevExtreme data source. The library will allow you to implement a data service that supports the protocol described in the following help topic: Custom Data Sources.
Moreover, the library will allow you to perform all operations such as, filtering, sorting, paging and grouping on the server side.
NOTE This library is for demonstrative purposes only. It illustrates how to use PHP to process client requests on the server. If the current functionality does not meet your needs, feel free to fork the repository and modify the source code according to your requirements.
If you wish to load data from a MySQL data table based on parameters received from the client side, perform the following steps.
spl_autoload_register(array("DevExtreme\LoadHelper", "LoadModule"));
Since all classes in the library are wrapped in the DevExtreme namespace, use the use operator to get rid of long names in your code. Only two classes are required: DbSet
and DataSourceLoader
. Execute the following code to be ready to use these classes:
use DevExtreme\DbSet; use DevExtreme\DataSourceLoader;
To load data, perform the following steps.
DbSet
instance passing the mysqli
instance as a first parameter and a table name from which you wish to load data as a second parameter to the DbSet
constructor.DbSet
instance to the Load
method of the DataSourceLoader
class. This is a static method and you will not need to create an instance of the class. The following code snippet shows how to do this:$mySQL = new mysqli("serverName", "userName", "password", "databaseName"); $dbSet = new DbSet($mySQL, "tableName"); $result = DataSourceLoader::Load($dbSet, $params);
Note that parameters ($params
) must be passed as an associative array.
That's it. The $result
variable will contain the required results. It will represent an array of items. If you wish to send it to the client to be dislplayed in a DevExtreme widget, convert it to the JSON format. You can use the json_encode function for this task.
The example folder of this repository contains an example that shows how to use the library. To test it:
DataController
constructor) and open the index.html file in a web browser.The DbSet
class has the following public methods that you can use without using the DataSourceLoader
class.
Delete
- deletes an item from a data table. It accepts a single parameter that represents a key. The key must be passed as an associative array. For example, if your key is ID and its value is 1, it should be passed to the method in the following manner:$dbSet->Delete(array("ID" => 1));
The method returns a number of the affected rows.
GetLastError
- returns a string representation of the error that was thrown by the last executed SQL query. The method does not accept parameters.
Insert
- insert a new row to your data table. It accepts a single parameter that represents an associative array of items. The method returns a number of the affected rows.
Update
- updates a certain item in your data table that is identified by a key value. It accepts two parameters. The first parameter represents a key value. It should be specified in the same manner as a key value for the Delete
method. The second parameter represents an associative array of values that corresponds to data fields you wish to update. The method returns a number of the affected rows.
