Database Structure

•

$vmLogger->warning( 'My warning message to the user' ); // Mainly used to trigger warnings

•

$vmLogger->notice( 'My Notice to the user' );

•

$vmLogger->info( 'My informational message to the user' ); // Used to give success messages

•

$vmLogger->debug( 'My debug message to the user' ); // Only displayed when DEBUG is enabled

•

$vmLogger->tip( 'My advice to the user' ); // Used to display Advice messages to the user

2.4. Database Structure

As said before, all Tables used for VM begin with the prefix _vm_. VM doesn't use Joomla core tables

for storing data.

2.5. Database Access

VM uses its own database access class for dealing with the database.

The database class file is

/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/classes/ps_database.php.

This database class extends Joomla's database class (class ps_DB extends database) and provides

additional functions, to be able to use older phpShop code. So this class is just a wrapper class for

Joomla's database object and doesn't open new connections to the database!

• Start a query: call the method query( string $query )

$db->query( 'SELECT email FROM #__users');

• Get the resulting record set: call method next_record( void ):

$db->next_record();

(returns false when no result can be returned or the end of the record set has been reached)

• Fetch the value of an attribute of the record set: method f( string

$nameOfTheAttribute )

$db->f( 'email' );

Alternative: method sf( string $nameOfTheAttribute ) returns the value of

the attribute specified by $nameOfTheAttribute or - when it's not available - the value of

$vars[$nameOfTheAttribute].

• Print (echo) the value of an attribute of the record set: method p( string

$nameOfTheAttribute )

$db->p( 'email' );

Alternative: method sp( string $nameOfTheAttribute ) prints the value of

the attribute specified by $nameOfTheAttribute or - when it's not available - the value of

$vars[$nameOfTheAttribute].

• Get the number of returned records: method num_rows( void ).

if( $db->num_rows() > 0 ) { // we have a record set! }

1 2 ... 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 ... 43 44
