PHP 8.4.2 Released!

mysqli_result::fetch_fields

mysqli_fetch_fields

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

mysqli_result::fetch_fields -- mysqli_fetch_fieldsReturns an array of objects representing the fields in a result set

Descrizione

Stile orientato agli oggetti

public mysqli_result::fetch_fields(): array

Stile procedurale

mysqli_fetch_fields(mysqli_result $result): array

This function serves an identical purpose to the mysqli_fetch_field() function with the single difference that, instead of returning one object at a time for each field, the columns are returned as an array of objects.

Elenco dei parametri

result

Solo nello stile procedurale: un identificatore di resultset restituito da mysqli_query(), mysqli_store_result() o mysqli_use_result().

Valori restituiti

Returns an array of objects containing field definition information.

Object properties
Property Description
name The name of the column
orgname Original column name if an alias was specified
table The name of the table this field belongs to (if not calculated)
orgtable Original table name if an alias was specified
def Unused. Always an empty string
db The name of the database
catalog Unused. Always "def"
max_length The maximum width of the field for the result set. As of PHP 8.1, this value is always 0.
length The width of the field in bytes. For string columns, the length value varies on the connection character set. For example, if the character set is latin1, a single-byte character set, the length value for a SELECT 'abc' query is 3. If the character set is utf8mb4, a multibyte character set in which characters take up to 4 bytes, the length value is 12.
charsetnr The character set number for the field.
flags An integer representing the bit-flags for the field.
type The data type used for this field
decimals The number of decimals for numeric fields, and the fractional seconds precision for temporal fields.

Example #1 Stile orientato agli oggetti

<?php
$mysqli
= new mysqli("127.0.0.1", "root", "foofoo", "sakila");

/* check connection */
if ($mysqli->connect_errno) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", $mysqli->connect_error);
exit();
}

foreach (array(
'latin1', 'utf8') as $charset) {

// Set character set, to show its impact on some values (e.g., length in bytes)
$mysqli->set_charset($charset);

$query = "SELECT actor_id, last_name from actor ORDER BY actor_id";

echo
"======================\n";
echo
"Character Set: $charset\n";
echo
"======================\n";

if (
$result = $mysqli->query($query)) {

/* Get field information for all columns */
$finfo = $result->fetch_fields();

foreach (
$finfo as $val) {
printf("Name: %s\n", $val->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $val->table);
printf("Max. Len: %d\n", $val->max_length);

printf("Flags: %d\n", $val->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n\n", $val->type);
}
$result->free();
}
}
$mysqli->close();
?>

Example #2 Stile procedurale

<?php
$link
= mysqli_connect("127.0.0.1", "my_user", "my_password", "sakila");

/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}

foreach (array(
'latin1', 'utf8') as $charset) {

// Set character set, to show its impact on some values (e.g., length in bytes)
mysqli_set_charset($link, $charset);

$query = "SELECT actor_id, last_name from actor ORDER BY actor_id";

echo
"======================\n";
echo
"Character Set: $charset\n";
echo
"======================\n";

if (
$result = mysqli_query($link, $query)) {

/* Get field information for all columns */
$finfo = mysqli_fetch_fields($result);

foreach (
$finfo as $val) {
printf("Name: %s\n", $val->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $val->table);
printf("Max. Len: %d\n", $val->max_length);
printf("Length: %d\n", $val->length);
printf("charsetnr: %d\n", $val->charsetnr);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $val->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n\n", $val->type);
}
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
}

mysqli_close($link);
?>

The field info bit-flags used by MySql are:
(Thanks to ragtag at hotmail dot com)
<?php
/*
NOT_NULL_FLAG = 1
PRI_KEY_FLAG = 2
UNIQUE_KEY_FLAG = 4
BLOB_FLAG = 16
UNSIGNED_FLAG = 32
ZEROFILL_FLAG = 64
BINARY_FLAG = 128
ENUM_FLAG = 256
AUTO_INCREMENT_FLAG = 512
TIMESTAMP_FLAG = 1024
SET_FLAG = 2048
NUM_FLAG = 32768
PART_KEY_FLAG = 16384
GROUP_FLAG = 32768
UNIQUE_FLAG = 65536
*/

// To test if a flag is set you can use & like so:

$meta = $mysqli_result_object->fetch_field();
if (
$meta->flags & 4) {
echo
'Unique key flag is set';
}

Here are two methods for converting the 'type' and 'flags' attributes to text for debugging purposes. They both use the predefined MYSQLI_ constants to generate the text.

<?php

public static function h_type2txt($type_id)
{
static
$types;

if (!isset(
$types))
{
$types = array();
$constants = get_defined_constants(true);
foreach (
$constants['mysqli'] as $c => $n) if (preg_match('/^MYSQLI_TYPE_(.*)/', $c, $m)) $types[$n] = $m[1];
}

return
array_key_exists($type_id, $types)? $types[$type_id] : NULL;
}

public static function
h_flags2txt($flags_num)
{
static
$flags;

if (!isset(
$flags))
{
$flags = array();
$constants = get_defined_constants(true);
foreach (
$constants['mysqli'] as $c => $n) if (preg_match('/MYSQLI_(.*)_FLAG$/', $c, $m)) if (!array_key_exists($n, $flags)) $flags[$n] = $m[1];
}

$result = array();
foreach (
$flags as $n => $t) if ($flags_num & $n) $result[] = $t;
return
implode(' ', $result);
}

?>

Those wanting to map the 'type' field in this function for use in mysqli_stmt_bind_param or to cannibalize it for their own mapping may find this function useful.

function map_field_type_to_bind_type($field_type)
{
switch ($field_type)
{
case MYSQLI_TYPE_DECIMAL:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_NEWDECIMAL:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_FLOAT:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_DOUBLE:
return 'd';

case MYSQLI_TYPE_BIT:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_TINY:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_SHORT:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_LONG:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_LONGLONG:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_INT24:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_YEAR:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_ENUM:
return 'i';

case MYSQLI_TYPE_TIMESTAMP:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_DATE:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_TIME:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_DATETIME:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_NEWDATE:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_INTERVAL:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_SET:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_VAR_STRING:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_STRING:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_CHAR:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_GEOMETRY:
return 's';

case MYSQLI_TYPE_TINY_BLOB:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_MEDIUM_BLOB:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_LONG_BLOB:
case MYSQLI_TYPE_BLOB:
return 'b';

default:
trigger_error("unknown type: $field_type");
return 's';
}
}

The nax_length gives counts in bytes. So if the text is utf-8, then we get incorrect result.

We have a code snippet where we check if the maximum length of the field and the max length of data stored becomes equal. This way we can check the potential truncation of data inserted
