Docs For Class DataListSource

Class DataListSource

Description

This is the base class for managing data for the DataList class. This abstracts away the underlying data layer from the DataList, so the data can come from multiple sources.

Most of the time the data will come from a data base such as Mysql or Oracle. This abstraction enables the data to also come from a tab delimited file, xml, php array

Variables

array $_columns = array() (line 39)

The column descriptions for the data we are working on

mixed $_data = array() (line 74)

A placeholder for data that is read/built and stored locally. Not all data sources have to use this.

Each entry in the array corresponds to 1 row of data.

mixed $_data_index = 0 (line 65)

Holds the index into the array of data

so we can keep track of where we are when we are walking the array (only usefull for non DB children)

mixed $_debug = FALSE (line 80)

debugging flag for debugging queries.

mixed $_query_params = array("num_total_rows" => 0,
"offset" => 0,
"limit" => -1,
"orderby" => '',
"secondaryorderby" => array(),"reverseorder"=>'',"searchby"=>'',"searchvalue"=>'',"searchmodifier"=>'',"searchtype"=>'simple') (line 47)

This holds various parameters relating

to the query of the data

Methods

Constructor DataListSource (line 86)

The constructor

DataListSource DataListSource ()

add_column (line 109)

Add a column of data to manage

void add_column (string $title, string $data_name, [boolean $sortable = FALSE], [boolean $searchable = FALSE], [string $sortorder = "ASC"])

string $title: - the title of the column
string $data_name: - the data value name
boolean $sortable: - is the column sortable? default: FALSE
boolean $searchable: - is the column searchable default: FALSE
string $sortorder: - the sort order (ASC, DESC) default: ASC

Redefined in descendants as:

PEARDB_DataObjectDataListSource::add_column() : Add a column of data to manage

do_prequery (line 198)

This is a method that should be defined by the child class to do any pre-query type of things.

Such as building a sql query string for a DB, or checking to make sure the file on disk exists if the source is a file on disk.

void do_prequery ()

Redefined in descendants as:

ArrayDataListSource::do_prequery() : This is a method that should be defined by the child class to do any pre-query type of things.
CSVFILEDataListSource::do_prequery() : The prequery. We use this to read the file
SQLDataListSource::do_prequery()

do_query (line 213)

This is the function that does the data fetching, and sorting if needed.

If the source is a sql database, this is where the query gets called. This function doesn't actually read the data from the DB yet. That is what get_next_data_row() does.

return: - the query passed/failed.

boolean do_query ()

Redefined in descendants as:

ArrayDataListSource::do_query() : This function does the query
CSVFILEDataListSource::do_query() : This function does the query
SQLDataListSource::do_query() : Do the query to the DB and pull in all of the records locally.
WordPressSQLDataListSource::do_query() : This is the function that does the data fetching, and sorting if needed.
PEARSQLDataListSource::do_query() : This is the function that does the data fetching, and sorting if needed.
ADODBSQLDataListSource::do_query() : This is the function that does the data fetching, and sorting if needed.
PGSQLDataListSource::do_query()
PEARDB_DataObjectDataListSource::do_query() : Perform the query on the database (executes DB_DataObject's ->find() method)

get_data_index (line 444)

This function returns the data_index value and increments it

int get_data_index ()

Redefined in descendants as:

ArrayDataListSource::get_data_index() : This function returns the data_index value and increments it

get_limit (line 392)

This function gets the current value of the limit value

int get_limit ()

get_next_data_row (line 174)

This function gets the next data row from the query()

array() get_next_data_row ()

Redefined in descendants as:

ArrayDataListSource::get_next_data_row() : This function returns the next row of valid data.
SQLDataListSource::get_next_data_row() : This function gets the next data row from the query()
WordPressSQLDataListSource::get_next_data_row() : This function gets the next data row from the query()
PEARSQLDataListSource::get_next_data_row() : This function gets the next data row from the query()

int get_simplesearch_modifier ()

get_total_rows (line 236)

This returns the total number of rows in our entire data set

int get_total_rows ()

query (line 140)

The main Query function.

This function is responsible for doing any data prefetching from a db,file and doing any sorting and searching on it depending on the values passed in from the DataList object

void query (int $offset, int $limit, string $orderby, string $reverseorder, string $searchby, string $searchby_value, string $simplesearch_modifier, $search_type)
