QueryBuilder builds a SELECT SQL statement based on the specification given as a yii\db\Query object.

SQL statements are created from yii\db\Query objects using the build()-method.

QueryBuilder is also used by yii\db\Command to build SQL statements such as INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE TABLE.

For more details and usage information on QueryBuilder, see the guide article on query builders.

Property Details

$conditionBuilders protected property
Deprecated since 2.0.14. Is not used, will be dropped in 2.1.0.

Map of query condition to builder methods. These methods are used by buildCondition() to build SQL conditions from array syntax.

protected array $conditionBuilders = []
$conditionClasses protected write-only property (available since version 2.0.14)

Map of condition aliases to condition classes. For example:

return [
    'LIKE' => yii\db\condition\LikeCondition::class,
];

This property is used by createConditionFromArray() method. See default condition classes list in defaultConditionClasses() method.

In case you want to add custom conditions support, use the setConditionClasses() method.

See also:

public void setConditionClasses ( $classes )
$db public property

The database connection.

public yii\db\Connection $db = null
$expressionBuilders protected write-only property (available since version 2.0.14)

Maps expression class to expression builder class. For example:

[
   yii\db\Expression::class => yii\db\ExpressionBuilder::class
]

This property is mainly used by buildExpression() to build SQL expressions form expression objects. See default values in defaultExpressionBuilders() method.

To override existing builders or add custom, use \yii\db\setExpressionBuilder() method. New items will be added to the end of this array.

To find a builder, buildExpression() will check the expression class for its exact presence in this map. In case it is NOT present, the array will be iterated in reverse direction, checking whether the expression extends the class, defined in this map.

See also:

public void setExpressionBuilders ( $builders )

getColumnType() public method

Converts an abstract column type into a physical column type.

The conversion is done using the type map specified in $typeMap. The following abstract column types are supported (using MySQL as an example to explain the corresponding physical types):

  • pk: an auto-incremental primary key type, will be converted into "int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY"
  • bigpk: an auto-incremental primary key type, will be converted into "bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY"
  • upk: an unsigned auto-incremental primary key type, will be converted into "int(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY"
  • char: char type, will be converted into "char(1)"
  • string: string type, will be converted into "varchar(255)"
  • text: a long string type, will be converted into "text"
  • smallint: a small integer type, will be converted into "smallint(6)"
  • integer: integer type, will be converted into "int(11)"
  • bigint: a big integer type, will be converted into "bigint(20)"
  • boolean: boolean type, will be converted into "tinyint(1)"
  • float`: float number type, will be converted into "float"
  • decimal: decimal number type, will be converted into "decimal"
  • datetime: datetime type, will be converted into "datetime"
  • timestamp: timestamp type, will be converted into "timestamp"
  • time: time type, will be converted into "time"
  • date: date type, will be converted into "date"
  • money: money type, will be converted into "decimal(19,4)"
  • binary: binary data type, will be converted into "blob"

If the abstract type contains two or more parts separated by spaces (e.g. "string NOT NULL"), then only the first part will be converted, and the rest of the parts will be appended to the converted result. For example, 'string NOT NULL' is converted to 'varchar(255) NOT NULL'.

For some of the abstract types you can also specify a length or precision constraint by appending it in round brackets directly to the type. For example string(32) will be converted into "varchar(32)" on a MySQL database. If the underlying DBMS does not support these kind of constraints for a type it will be ignored.

If a type cannot be found in $typeMap, it will be returned without any change.
