A library of PHP scripts and classes that aid in the development of PHP projects

All scripts are written for PHP 7.4 | 8.*

List of Helpers

• UpdateSqlClasses.php

  • These scripts are used to create php classes representing your database tables

  • Choose a script from UpdateSqlClasses/ based on which sql implementation you're using

    • Supported Implementations

      • MySQL: /UpdateSqlClasses/mysql/UpdateSqlClasses.php

      • SQLite: /UpdateSqlClasses/sqlite/UpdateSqlClasses.php

  • See the top section of the script to configure the script's parameters

  • Tun from the root directory of project

    php UpdateSqlClasses.php

• PdoWrapper.php

  • I wrote this class because I hated copying and pasting the same PDO query & execution code and only needing to change the sql query

  • Initialize the object with your PDO instance, then use this class instead of your PDO

  • SqlExecution is the method you'll use the most (usage examples here)

    $PdoWrapperInstance->SqlExecution($sql, $vars, [PDO::FETCH_CLASS, User::class], "fetch");
    
    $PdoWrapperInstance->SqlExecution($sql, [], [PDO::FETCH_COLUMN, 0], "fetchAll");

  • Each SqlExecution() tries to begin a transaction if one hasn't already been opened. Because of this, you'll need to run SaveChanges() to commit that transaction when you insert into of update your tables

    $PdoWrapperInstance->SaveChanges();

• Logger.php

  • This class helps create a custom log file.

  • Use like

    $logger = new Logger("path/to/file.log");
    $logger->log("hello world!");
    $logger->log("hello world!", LogLevel::Warn);

    outputs

    [ 2021-09-25 07:18:52 ] [ INFO ] hello world!
    [ 2021-09-25 07:18:40 ] [ WARN ] hello world!
    

• Util.php

  • DebugPrint()

    • A wrapper around print_r() that will output data to the browser in a readable format
    • Optional string title and stringifies a given value of any type
    • Use like

    \PhpHelpers\Util::DebugPrint($dataToOutput, "A Label To Describe Data");
