pg_get_result — Recupera i risultati di una query asincrona
pg_get_result() estrae la risorsa risultato dalle
query asincrone eseguite da
pg_send_query(). pg_send_query()
può inviare query multiple al server PostgreSQL server e
pg_get_result() è utilizzat per recuperare i risultati
uno ad uno. Restituisce la risorsa risultato. Se non ci sono più
risultati, restituisce false.
There is no way to poll/wait for a notification to come in. You either have to enter a busy loop or sleep. Both options are horrible. It would be nice for PHP to provide access to PQsocket so one could select() on the socket connection. This is how it's done from C or Perl.It might seem that after calling pg_get_result() upon sending just a single query, the connection will not be busy. The correct way is, though, to call extra pg_get_result() in a loop until it returns false [1].
<?php
$conn = pg_connect('...', PGSQL_CONNECT_FORCE_NEW);
for ($i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++) {
$query = 'erroneous query';
if (pg_connection_busy($conn)) {
fprintf(STDERR, "Connection is busy\n");
exit(1);
}
pg_send_query($conn, $query);
$res = pg_get_result($conn);
if ($res === false) {
fprintf(STDERR, "A result was expected\n");
exit(1);
}
/* The following does not seem necessary for good queries, but is vital for erroneous queries.
Commenting the loop out leads to this script fail with the "Connection is busy" error. */
while (pg_get_result($conn));
// result processing...
}
?>

[1] Or, even better, use an asynchronous connection since PHP 5.6.To have a a simple wait output with async queries you can use the pg_connection_busy command:
<?php
$dbh = pg_connect("host=XXX user=XXX password=XXX dbname=XXX");
if (!$dbh)
{
print "Failed to connect";
exit;
}
$query = "SELECT pg_sleep(10)";
if (!pg_connection_busy($dbh))
{
$sent = pg_send_query($dbh, $query);
print "Sent query, waiting: ";
while (pg_connection_busy($dbh)
{
print ".";
flush();
}
$res = pg_get_result($dbh);
print "<br>"; // or \n
print "Result is: $res";
}
pg_close($dbh);

Yes, there is. If there is a query in progress, pg_get_result() will block and return the result of that query when it's complete.
