PHP 8.4.1 Released!

mysql_field_flags

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

mysql_field_flags結果において指定したフィールドのフラグを取得する

警告

この拡張モジュールは PHP 5.5.0 で非推奨になり、PHP 7.0.0 で削除されました。 MySQLi あるいは PDO_MySQL を使うべきです。詳細な情報は MySQL: API の選択 を参照ください。 この関数の代替として、これらが使えます。

説明

mysql_field_flags(resource $result, int $field_offset): string|false

mysql_field_flags()は、指定したフィールドの フィールドフラグを返します。個々のフラグは、空白一つで区切られた 形式で返されます。このため、返された値を explode() で分割することができます。

パラメータ

result

評価された結果 リソース。この結果は、mysql_query() のコールにより得られたものです。

field_offset

数値フィールドオフセット。field_offset0 から始まります。field_offset が存在しない場合、E_WARNING レベルのエラーが発行されます。

戻り値

結果についてのフラグを文字列で返します。失敗した場合に false を返します。

運用システム上のMySQLがサポートしている場合、次のフラグがレポート されます。 "not_null", "primary_key", "unique_key", "multiple_key", "blob", "unsigned", "zerofill", "binary", "enum", "auto_increment" そして "timestamp"

例1 mysql_field_flags() の例

<?php
$result
= mysql_query("SELECT id,email FROM people WHERE id = '42'");
if (!
$result) {
echo
'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
exit;
}
$flags = mysql_field_flags($result, 0);

echo
$flags;
print_r(explode(' ', $flags));
?>

上の例の出力は、 たとえば以下のようになります。

not_null primary_key auto_increment
Array
(
    [0] => not_null
    [1] => primary_key
    [2] => auto_increment
)

注意

注意:

下位互換のために、次の非推奨別名を使用してもいいでしょう。 mysql_fieldflags()

returns primary keys of a table using 'show keys'
although it is possible to use desc, show keys offers possible enhancements such a getting sequence in index along with it

function getPrimaryKeyOf($table, $link) {
$pk = Array();

$sql = 'SHOW KEYS FROM `'.$table.'`';
$res = mysql_query($table, $link) or die(mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
if ($row['Key_name']=='PRIMARY')
array_push($pk, $row['Column_name']);
}
return $pk;
}

Using the "DESC TableName" command may also do the trick and is a bit shorter.

To really backup the database values, I made a little changement :

My code really looks like bomas 's code, but there is an important diffence :

<?php
$nbc
= mysql_num_fields($req_table);
while (
$ligne = mysql_fetch_array($req_table))
{
$insertions = "INSERT INTO $table VALUES(";
for (
$i=0; $i<$nbc; $i++)
{
if (
$i > 0 ) $insertions .= ", ";
if ( !isset(
$ligne[$i]))
$insertions .= "NULL";
else
$insertions .= "'" . mysql_real_escape_string($ligne[$i]). "'";
}
$insertions .= ");";
$dumpsql[] = $insertions;
}
?>

$dumpslq is the variable where I put the insertion orders before writting them in a text file.

Before, I test that the values if not NULL into the field because it is the only way to make the difference, for example for string text fields, between NULL values and empty strings.

If you don't make this test, you should find empty string instead of NULL values when you do the backup.

ok, sorry for the code bloat :) but this is how I
get the full power of mysql's DESCRIBE table statement, in
an associative array, including defaults, enum values, float radix et all.

it assumes mysql returns the type as
"type[(arg[,arg..])] [ add]"
like
"float(20,6) unsigned"
"enum('yes','no')"
etc

<?

function getFields($tablename) {

$fields = array();
$fullmatch = "/^([^(]+)(\([^)]+\))?(\s(.+))?$/";
$charlistmatch = "/,?'([^']*)'/";
$numlistmatch = "/,?(\d+)/";

$fieldsquery .= "DESCRIBE $tablename";
$result_fieldsquery = mysql_query($fieldsquery) or die(mysql_error());
while ($row_fieldsquery = mysql_fetch_assoc($result_fieldsquery)) {

$name = $row_fieldsquery['Field'];
$fields[$name] = array();
$fields[$name]["type"] = "";
$fields[$name]["args"] = array();
$fields[$name]["add"] = "";
$fields[$name]["null"] = $row_fieldsquery['Null'];
$fields[$name]["key"] = $row_fieldsquery['Key'];
$fields[$name]["default"] = $row_fieldsquery['Default'];
$fields[$name]["extra"] = $row_fieldsquery['Extra'];

$fulltype = $row_fieldsquery['Type'];
$typeregs = array();

if (preg_match($fullmatch, $fulltype, $typeregs)) {
$fields[$name]["type"] = $typeregs[1];
if ($typeregs[4]) $fields[$name]["add"] = $typeregs[4];
$fullargs = $typeregs[2];
$argsreg = array();
if (preg_match_all($charlistmatch, $fullargs, $argsreg)) {
$fields[$name]["args"] = $argsreg[1];
} else {
$argsreg = array();
if (preg_match_all($numlistmatch, $fullargs, $argsreg)) {
$fields[$name]["args"] = $argsreg[1];
} else die("cant parse type args: $fullargs");
}
} else die("cant parse type: $fulltype");

}
return $fields;

}

?>

Another examples :

####################################

function field_keys($host, $user, $password, $database, $field ) {
$db_link = mysql_connect($host, $user, $password) or die ("error connect");
mysql_select_db($database,$db_link);
$query="DESC $field";
$results=mysql_query($query);
$i=0;
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
if ($row[Key]=="PRI") {
$array_keys[$i]=$row[Field];
}
$i++;
}
return $array_keys;
}

####################################

//Example of Main...
$tmp = field_keys("localhost", "myuser", "mypassword", "mydb", "field_name" );

// ...loop through array...
foreach ( $tmp as $array_tmp){
print "<br>";
print $array_tmp;
print "<br>";
}

I didn't find anything to get the valid values for
ENUM or SET column types, so I came up with the
following

function mysql_enum_values($table, $field)
{
$sql = "SHOW COLUMNS FROM $table LIKE '$field'";
$sql_res = mysql_query($sql)
or die("Could not query:\n$sql");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_res);
mysql_free_result($sql_res);
return(explode("','",
preg_replace("/.*\('(.*)'\)/", "\\1",
$row["Type"])));
}

well, to make a complete backup of your database, i suggest this code:

//open database here
$tab_status = mysql_query("SHOW TABLE STATUS");
while($all = mysql_fetch_assoc($tab_status)):
$tbl_stat[$all[Name]] = $all[Auto_increment];
endwhile;
unset($backup);
$tables = mysql_list_tables('cofadmin');
while($tabs = mysql_fetch_row($tables)):
$backup .= "--\n--Tabel structuur voor `$tabs[0]`\n--\n\nDROP IF EXISTS TABLE `$tabs[0]`\nCREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `$tabs[0]` (&nbsp;";
$res = mysql_query("SHOW CREATE TABLE $tabs[0]");
while($all = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)):
$str = str_replace("CREATE TABLE `$tabs[0]` (", "", $all['Create Table']);
$str = str_replace(",", ",&nbsp;", $str);
$str2 = str_replace("`) ) TYPE=MyISAM ", "`)\n ) TYPE=MyISAM ", $str);
$backup .= $str2." AUTO_INCREMENT=".$tbl_stat[$tabs[0]].";\n\n";
endwhile;
$backup .= "--\n--Gegevens worden uitgevoerd voor tabel `$tabs[0]`\n--\n\n";
$data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $tabs[0]");
while($dt = mysql_fetch_row($data)):
$backup .= "INSERT INTO `$tabs[0]` VALUES('$dt[0]'";
for($i=1; $i<sizeof($dt); $i++):
$backup .= ", '$dt[$i]'";
endfor;
$backup .= ");\n";
endwhile;
$backup .= "\n-- --------------------------------------------------------\n\n";
endwhile;
echo $backup;

this displayes your data the same way as phpmyadmin does.

hope it helps some of you guys

Sometimes, when writing a generic function or class, you want your script to be able to determine what the primary key of a table is.
/* usual MySQL stuff */
$query="DESC UsersTable";
$results=mysql_query($query);

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($results))
{
if ($row[Type]="PRI")
{
print "I found the primary key! <br>";
$UserKey=$row[Field];
print $row[Field];
/* drop out , as we've found the key */
exit;
}
}

..... later on we might have something like

< some sort of loop through records >

print "<a href='View_User_record.php?userkey=$UserKey'> Users Name </a>";

<end loop>

What's also interesting is the useful data you can get from
a DESC query.

The following prints out the array values grabbed by mysql_fetch_array on a DESC query - VERY useful stuff!!!

/* usual MySQL stuff */
$query="DESC UsersTable";
$results=mysql_query($query);

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($results))
{
print "<pre>";
print_r ($row);
print "</pre>";
}

This function is essential for writing a generic table editor (ie one that just takes the name of the table and works out what fields it has, types, sizes etc.). Unfortunately, I am using psotgreSQL not mySql. Postgres has field_type and field_size functions but not as far as I can tell an equivalent of the mysql_field_flags() function. Without it, there is no way I can do generic ADDs and INSERTs.

Anyone know a workaround to get this information (eg is the field a primary key? Can it be NULL? Is it auto_increment?) in Postgres?

Cheers

The previous problem to get the default values of a column:
Use the following query and parse the 'Default' column:

"SHOW COLUMNS FROM TableName"

or for a single entry:

"SHOW COLUMNS FROM TableName LIKE 'column'"

It will give you also values for Type, Null, Key and Extra (check with mysql program first, so you see what you get ;-)
