Introduction

PHP's database access functions are not standardized. This creates a need for a database class library to hide the differences between the different databases (encapsulate the differences) so we can easily switch databases.

The library currently supports MySQL, Firebird & Interbase, PostgreSQL, SQLite3, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, Foxpro ODBC, Access ODBC, Informix, DB2, Sybase, Sybase SQL Anywhere, generic ODBC and Microsoft's ADO.

We hope more people will contribute drivers to support other databases.

Installation

Unpack all the files into a directory accessible by your web server.

To test, try modifying some of the tutorial examples. Make sure you customize the connection settings correctly.

You can debug using:

<?php
include('adodb/adodb.inc.php');

$db = adoNewConnection($driver); # eg. 'mysqli' or 'oci8'
$db->debug = true;
$db->connect($server, $user, $password, $database);
$rs = $db->execute('select * from some_small_table');
print "<pre>";
print_r($rs->getRows());
print "</pre>";

Documentation and Examples

Refer to the ADOdb website for library documentation and examples. The documentation can also be downloaded for offline viewing.

There is also a tutorial that contrasts ADOdb code with PHP native MySQL code.

Files

  • adodb.inc.php is the library's main file. You only need to include this file.
  • adodb-*.inc.php are the database specific driver code.
  • adodb-session.php is the PHP4 session handling code.
  • test.php contains a list of test commands to exercise the class library.
  • testdatabases.inc.php contains the list of databases to apply the tests on.
  • Benchmark.php is a simple benchmark to test the throughput of a SELECT statement for databases described in testdatabases.inc.php. The benchmark tables are created in test.php.
