PostgreSQLDataSource

Introduction #

Although using PDODataSource can connect to SQL Server. However if for some reasons, you do not have the PDO Driver, you may use the old traditional connection to PostgreSQL using PostgreSQLDataSource.

Settings #

Name	type	description
`class`	string	Must set to `'\koolreport\datasources\PostgreSQLDataSource'`
`connection`	object	Set the connection object
`host`	string	Host of database
`username`	string	Your login username
`password`	string	Your password
`dbname`	string	Database name

If connection is set to an existed connection, that connection object will be used.

Otherwise, KoolReport will create a new or use a previously own-created connection object of the same setting.

Methods #

Name	return	description
`query(string $str_query)`	PostgreSQLDataSource	This method is used in report's setup() function. It will help to setup query string which will be executed when report is run.
`params(array $params)`	PostgreSQLDataSource	This method is used to set list of parameters for query statement

Example #

<?php
class MyReport extends \koolreport\KoolReport
{
    public function settings()
    {
        return array(
            "dataSources"=>array(
                "sqlserver"=>array(
                    'host' => 'localhost',
                    'username' => 'username',
                    'password' => 'psasword',
                    'dbname' => 'automaker',
                    'charset' => 'utf8',  
                    'class' => "\koolreport\datasources\PostgreSQLDataSource"  
                ),
            )
        );
    }
    public function setup()
    {
        $this->src('sqlserver')
        ->query("SELECT * FROM tblPurchase where status=:status")
        ->params(array(":status"=>"completed"))
        ->pipe(..)
        ->pipe(..)
        ->pipe($this->dataStore('purchase_summary'));
    }
}
