README

Simple PHP helper class for working with bulk sets of data which needs to be imported in the database.

Installing

The easiest way to install PdoBulk is to use Composer, the awesome dependency manager for PHP. Once Composer is installed, run composer.phar require nextpertise/pdo-bulk:dev-master and composer will do all the hard work for you.

Usage

If you are using the autoloader in Composer (or your framework ties into it), then all you need to do is add a use PdoBulk\PdoBulk; statement at the top of each file you wish to use PdoBulk in and use it like a normal class:

<?php
namespace exampleApp;

require 'src/PdoBulk/PdoBulk.php';

use PdoBulk\PdoBulk;
use PdoBulk\PdoBulkSubquery;

// configuration
$dbhost 	= "localhost";
$dbname		= "dpkg";
$dbuser		= "user";
$dbpass		= "password";

// database connection
$conn = new \PDO("mysql:host=$dbhost;dbname=$dbname",$dbuser,$dbpass);
$pdoBulk = new PdoBulk($conn);

Add a two entries

// Add entry 1 into `Package`
$packageEntry = array();
$packageEntry['name'] = 'wget';
$packageEntry['description'] = 'retrieves files from the web';
$packageEntry['architecture'] = 'amd64';
$pdoBulk->persist('Package', $packageEntry);

// Add entry 2 into `Package`
$packageEntry = array();
$packageEntry['name'] = 'curl';
$packageEntry['description'] = 'retrieves files from the web';
$packageEntry['architecture'] = 'amd64';
$pdoBulk->persist('Package', $packageEntry);

// Flush records to the database
$pdoBulk->flushQueue('Package');
