No problem, glad it worked out!

You're a life saver Nabeel. I've been trying to figure this out for the past couple of weeks. Thank you so much. Take care my friend.

In that link, it looks like they configure it on port 9312 instead of 3312 (not sure why they changed it). I would change that port in the config, and restart searchd and try again.

i think i know what you meant. One more question if you don't mind please. I followed the steps on this website in installing Sphinx: http://www.crankberryblog.com/... and made it work. I can search through command prompt, however, I get this error when I try to search from my CakePHP application: Notice (1024): Search query failed: connection to localhost:3312 failed (errno=10061, msg=No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.) [APP\models\behaviors\sphinx.php. Do you have any idea why? Thanks.

Hi Lyman, you would do it as you normally do with a model find, just set it to the view and iterate through it. It returns the same results as a normal find call, just filtered to the search.

Hello Nabeel, thanks for this code. I got a very simple question for you. If I have these on my controller:

$sphinx = array('matchMode' => SPH_MATCH_ALL, 'sortMode' => array(SPH_SORT_EXTENDED => '@relevance DESC'));
$results = $this->Film->find('all', array('search' => 'search string here', 'sphinx' => $sphinx));

How would I pass/display the $result on my View (index.ctp)? Can you give me a sample code please? I would really really appreciate it. Thanks.

Lyman

Re: MySQL Diff Tool

Hmm, I wonder why that never came up in my search before? Seems like it's been around too.

I needed something in PHP for my phpVMS project - I had a ton of SQL diff files, but users were on all sorts of different versions, so the diff files would often fail.

But it's great to have options!

I use this (python) tool to sync my databases: http://schemasync.org/. It spits out patch and revert SQL and works very well to keep database in sync between development and deploy/release versions...

Do you mind if I quote a couple of your articles as long as I provide credit and sources back to your website? My website is in the exact same area of interest as yours and my users would truly benefit from a lot of the information you provide here. Please let me know if this alright with you. Thank you!

Thanks for the kind words, Josh! I was in the same position

You are officially my new hero. I loved ez_sql and have used it forever. However, it did not support mysql routines and I have started using them recently on a major project. I was so bumbed, but your ezdb for mysqli is awesome and saved me tons of work. Thank so much.

Hi Doug,

If you have access to PDO, I'd use that. Not all servers/hosts have PDO available, so that's where this comes in. Speed, I'm not sure, it certainly won't be any faster. In terms of security, there's no bound parameters, so there's a minus on that. ezDB was mainly a PHP5 upgrade to the ezSQL class, which I had been using in a few projects before PDO was really an option.

How does this class compare in terms of security and speed with pdo ?

Hi Mike,

Here is my example of usage, I need to update the docs on github to show, but the purpose of creating the class first is for the debug messages.

i downloaded and created an example however it will not connect to the db. And when I look at the DB class it in turn tries to create an ezMySQL object before it connects to the db. I am a beginner. I think the db class should connect to the DB first. then you should create the SQL object.

public static function init($type='mysql')
{

if($type == 'mysql' || $type == '')
{
if(!self::$DB = new ezSQL_mysql())
{
echo 'error initializing';
self::$error = self::$DB->error;
self::$errno = self::$DB->errno;

return false;
}

doesnt generate an error but it should because it is expecting DB connection data which is never passed upon calling init.

just a beginners 2 cents.

here is my example that doesnt work.

DB::init('mysql');
DB::debug();
DB::connect(MYSQLHOST,MYSQLUSER,MYSQLPASSWORD,MYSQLDB);
$fields = array('form_id', 'name');
$results = DB::quick_select('class_form_elements', $fields, "form_id=0");
DB::debug();
if($results)
{
foreach($results as $row)
{
echo $row->name;
}
}

oh and I changed the order of the params in the class to match above so that isnt the issue.
