mysql_list_fields

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

mysql_list_fields列出 MySQL 表字段

警告

本函数自 PHP 5.4.0 起已废弃,并且它和整个MySQL 扩展自 PHP 7.0.0 开始被移除。 可以选择出于活跃开发中的MySQLiPDO_MySQL扩展来作为替代。 参见MySQL:选择 API 指南来获取更多信息。 用以替代本函数的有:

  • SQL 查询:SHOW COLUMNS FROM sometable

说明

mysql_list_fields(string $database_name, string $table_name, resource $link_identifier = NULL): resource

检索指定表名的信息。

此函数已弃用。最好使用 mysql_query() 发出 SQL SHOW COLUMNS FROM table [LIKE 'name'] 语句代替。

参数

database_name

The name of the database that's being queried.

table_name

The name of the table that's being queried.

link_identifier

MySQL 连接。如不指定连接标识,则使用由 mysql_connect() 最近打开的连接。如果没有找到该连接,会尝试不带参数调用 mysql_connect() 来创建。如没有找到连接或无法建立连接,则会生成 E_WARNING 级别的错误。

返回值

A result pointer resource on success, or false on failure.

结果指针,可以用于 mysql_field_flags()mysql_field_len()mysql_field_name()mysql_field_type()

示例

示例 #1 替代弃用 mysql_list_fields()

<?php
$result
= mysql_query("SHOW COLUMNS FROM sometable");
if (!
$result) {
echo
'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
exit;
}
if (
mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while (
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
print_r($row);
}
}
?>

以上示例的输出类似于:

Array
(
    [Field] => id
    [Type] => int(7)
    [Null] =>  
    [Key] => PRI
    [Default] =>
    [Extra] => auto_increment
)
Array
(
    [Field] => email
    [Type] => varchar(100)
    [Null] =>
    [Key] =>
    [Default] =>
    [Extra] =>
)

注释

注意:

为了向下兼容,可以使用下列已废弃的别名: mysql_listfields()

If you're willing to use a lot of functions to get a little information about fields in a table, this function is for you. If you just want to get all the information you can find, you can use this:

<?php

// Taken from: http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-field-flags.php
// Original by: amir at scrounch dot com
// Returns the name of the fields in the primary key for a table.
// Also keeps the fields in KEY order. Handy.
function getPrimaryKeyOf($table) {
$keys = Array();

$query = sprintf("SHOW KEYS FROM `%s`", $table);
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while (
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
if (
$row['Key_name'] == 'PRIMARY' )
$keys[$row['Seq_in_index'] - 1] = $row['Column_name'];
}

return
$keys;
}

// Returns a bunch of information about a table...
// The name of the auto-increment field, if any, fields in the
// primary key (using the function above), and all information
// about all fields.
function getTableInformationOf($table) {
$information = array(
"auto" => "",
"primary" => array(),
"fields" => array()
);

$information['primary'] = $this->getPrimaryKeyOf($table);

$result = mysql_query("DESC `$table`");
while (
$field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ) {
$information['fields'][] = $field;
if (
$field['Extra'] == "auto_increment" )
$information['auto'] = $field['Field'];
}

return
$information;
}

?>

To make an array containing the names of a column from a table, you use the following simple script: (Note: using table1 with three columns)

<?php
$qColumnNames
= mysql_query("SHOW COLUMNS FROM table1",$db) or die("mysql error");
$numColumns = mysql_num_rows($qColumnNames);
$x = 0;
while (
$x < $numColumns)
{
$colname = mysql_fetch_row($qColumnNames);
$col[$colname[0]] = $colname[0];
$x++;
}

print_r($col);

/* it will have the following output
Array (
[firstcolumn] => firstcolumn
[secondcolumn] => secondcolumn
[thirdcolumn] => thirdcolumn
)
*/
?>

Or you can number the columns from zero. This help when using it in conjunction with mysql_fetch_row to get an array. You don't have to remember which number of the array a certain column is.

<?php
$qColumnNames
= mysql_query("SHOW COLUMNS FROM table1",$db) or die("mysql error");
$numColumns = mysql_num_rows($qColumnNames);
$x = 0;
while (
$x < $numColumns)
{
$colname = mysql_fetch_row($qColumnNames);
$col[$colname[0]] = $x;
$x++;
}

print_r($col);

/* it will have the following output
Array (
[firstcolumn] => 0
[secondcolumn] => 1
[thirdcolumn] => 2
)
*/
?>

To use it in conjuction with mysql_fetch_row:

<?php
$row
= mysql_fetch_row("SELECT * from table1",$db) or die("mysql error");
?>

You can now call $row[col[firstcolumn]]. This becomes useful when you have a lot of columns.

Below script is used to get all coloumn indormation of an table.When we are working custome ORM then we need to match the coloumn name with array keys.

<?php
function getColoumn($table) {
$result = mysql_query("SHOW COLUMNS FROM ". $table);
if (!
$result) {
echo
'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
}
$fieldnames=array();
if (
mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while (
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$fieldnames[] = $row['Field'];
}
}

return
$fieldnames;
}
?>
