Binding an SQL query
To retrieve the data that the datagrid will display you can begin
by passing a simple SQL statement to the
bind()
method.
Example 58-1. Using an SQL query as datasource <?php
require 'Structures/DataGrid.php';
// Instantiate the DataGrid
$datagrid =& new Structures_DataGrid();
// Setup your database connection
$options = array('dsn' => 'mysql://user:password@host/db_name');
// Bind a basic SQL statement as datasource
$test = $datagrid->bind('SELECT * FROM my_table', $options);
// Print binding error if any
if (PEAR::isError($test)) {
echo $test->getMessage();
}
// Print the DataGrid with the default renderer (HTML Table)
$test = $datagrid->render();
// Print rendering error if any
if (PEAR::isError($test)) {
echo $test->getMessage();
}
?> |

If you are familiar with the SQL language you'll certainly find many ways
to adapt the above example to your needs, using more complex queries.
You can also page through your dataset with the automatic paging feature
as shown below. This feature transparently adds LIMIT
clauses to your SQL statement, providing optimized database access.
Example 58-2. Automatic paging <?php
require 'Structures/DataGrid.php';
// 10 records per page
$datagrid =& new Structures_DataGrid(10);
// Setup your datasource
$options = array('dsn' => 'mysql://user:password@host/db_name');
$test = $datagrid->bind("SELECT * FROM my_table", $options);
if (PEAR::isError($test)) {
echo $test->getMessage();
}
// Print the DataGrid with the default renderer (HTML Table)
$test = $datagrid->render();
if (PEAR::isError($test)) {
echo $test->getMessage();
}
// Print the HTML paging links
$test = $datagrid->render(DATAGRID_RENDER_PAGER);
if (PEAR::isError($test)) {
echo $test->getMessage();
}
?> |
