An elegant lightweight and efficient SQL Query Builder with fluid interface SQL syntax supporting bindings and complicated query generation. Works without establishing a connection to the database.

1. Installation

The recommended way to install the SQL Query Builder is through Composer. Run the following command to install it:

php composer.phar require nilportugues/sql-query-builder

2. The Builder

The SQL Query Builder allows to generate complex SQL queries standard using the SQL-2003 dialect (default) and the MySQL dialect, that extends the SQL-2003 dialect.

2.1. Generic Builder

The Generic Query Builder is the default builder for this class and writes standard SQL-2003.

All column aliases are escaped using the ' sign by default.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()->setTable('user');    

echo $builder->write($query);    

Output:

SELECT user.* FROM user

2.2. MySQL Builder

The MySQL Query Builder has its own class, that inherits from the SQL-2003 builder. All columns will be wrapped with the tilde ` sign.

All table and column aliases are escaped using the tilde sign by default.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\MySqlBuilder;

$builder = new MySqlBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()->setTable('user'); 

echo $builder->write($query);    

Output:

SELECT user.* FROM `user` 

2.3. Human Readable Output

Both Generic and MySQL Query Builder can write complex SQL queries.

Every developer out there needs at some point revising the output of a complicated query, the SQL Query Builder includes a human-friendly output method, and therefore the writeFormatted method is there to aid the developer when need.

Keep in mind writeFormatted is to be avoided at all cost in production mode as it adds unneeded overhead due to parsing and re-formatting of the generated statement.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()->setTable('user');  

echo $builder->writeFormatted($query);    

Output:

SELECT 
    user.* 
FROM 
    user

More complicated examples can be found in the documentation.

3. Building Queries

3.1. SELECT Statement

3.1.1. Basic SELECT statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns(['user_id','name','email']);
     
echo $builder->write($query);    

Output:

SELECT user.user_id, user.name, user.email FROM user

3.1.2. Aliased SELECT statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns(['userId' => 'user_id', 'username' => 'name', 'email' => 'email']);
       
echo $builder->write($query);    

Output:

SELECT user.user_id AS 'userId', user.name AS 'username', user.email AS 'email' FROM user

3.1.3. SELECT with WHERE statement

Default logical operator for filtering using WHERE conditions is AND.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns([
        'userId' => 'user_id',
        'username' => 'name',
        'email' => 'email'
    ])
    ->where()
    ->greaterThan('user_id', 5)
    ->notLike('username', 'John')
	->end();
      
echo $builder->writeFormatted($query);    

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id AS 'userId',
    user.name AS 'username',
    user.email AS 'email'
FROM 
    user 
WHERE 
    (user.user_id < :v1)
    AND (user.username NOT LIKE :v2)

3.1.4. Complex WHERE conditions

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
    ->equals('user_id', 2)
    ->subWhere("OR")
    ->lessThan($column, 10)
    ->greaterThan('user_id', 100)
	->end();

echo $builder->writeFormatted($query);

Output:

SELECT
    user.*
FROM
    user
WHERE
    (user.user_id = :v1)
    AND (user.user_id = :v2)
    AND (
        (user.user_id < :v3)
        OR (user.user_id > :v4)
    )

3.1.5. JOIN & LEFT/RIGHT/INNER/CROSS JOIN SELECT statements

Syntax for JOIN, LEFT JOIN, RIGHT JOIN, INNER JOIN, CROSS JOIN work the exactly same way.

Here's an example selecting both table and joined table columns and doing sorting using columns from both the table and the joined table.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns([
            'userId'   => 'user_id',
            'username' => 'name',
            'email'    => 'email',
            'created_at'
    ])
    ->orderBy('user_id', OrderBy::DESC)
    ->leftJoin(
        'news', //join table
        'user_id', //origin table field used to join
        'author_id', //join column
         ['newsTitle' => 'title', 'body', 'created_at', 'updated_at']
     )
    ->on()
    ->equals('author_id', 1); //enforcing a condition on the join column

$query
    ->where()
    ->greaterThan('user_id', 5)
    ->notLike('username', 'John')
	->end();

$query
    ->orderBy('created_at', OrderBy::DESC);

echo $builder->writeFormatted($query); 

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id AS 'userId',
    user.name AS 'username',
    user.email AS 'email',
    user.created_at,
    news.title AS 'newsTitle',
    news.body,
    news.created_at,
    news.updated_at 
FROM 
    user 
LEFT JOIN 
        news
    ON 
        (news.author_id = user.user_id) 
        AND (news.author_id = :v1)
WHERE 
    (user.user_id < :v2)
    AND (user.username NOT LIKE :v3)        
ORDER BY 
    user.user_id DESC,
    news.created_at DESC;

3.1.6. COUNT rows

Counting rows comes in 3 possible ways, using the ALL selector *, stating a column or stating a column and its alias.

3.1.6.1. Count using ALL selector

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
        ->setTable('user')
        ->count()

echo $builder->write($query);

Output:

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM user;

3.1.6.2. Count using column as a selector

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
        ->setTable('user')
        ->count('user_id')

echo $builder->write($query);

Output:

SELECT COUNT(user.user_id) FROM user;

3.1.6.3. Count using column as a selector

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
        ->setTable('user')
        ->count('user_id', 'total_users')

echo $builder->write($query);

Output:

SELECT COUNT(user.user_id) AS 'total_users' FROM user;

3.2. INSERT Statement

The INSERT statement is really straightforward.

3.2.1 Basic INSERT statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->insert()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setValues([
        'user_id' => 1,
        'name'    => 'Nil',
        'contact' => 'contact@nilportugues.com',
    ]);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output

INSERT INTO user (user.user_id, user.name, user.contact) VALUES (:v1, :v2, :v3)
[':v1' => 1, ':v2' => 'Nil', ':v3' => 'contact@nilportugues.com'];

3.3. UPDATE Statement

The UPDATE statement works just like expected, set the values and the conditions to match the row and you're set.

Examples provided below.

3.3.1 Basic UPDATE statement

Important including the the where statement is critical, or all table rows will be replaced with the provided values if the statement is executed.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->update()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setValues([
        'user_id' => 1,
        'name' => 'Nil',
        'contact' => 'contact@nilportugues.com'
    ])
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
	->end();

$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

UPDATE 
    user 
SET
    user.user_id = :v1,
    user.name = :v2, 
    user.contact = :v3
WHERE 
    (user.user_id = :v4)
[':v1' => 1, ':v2' => 'Nil', ':v3' => 'contact@nilportugues.com', ':v4' => 1];

3.3.2. Elaborated UPDATE statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Syntax\OrderBy;
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->update()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setValues([
        'name' => 'UpdatedName',
    ]);
    
$query
    ->where()
    ->like('username', '%N')
    ->between('user_id', 1, 2000)
	->end();
        
$query
    ->orderBy('user_id', OrderBy::ASC)
    ->limit(1);            
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

UPDATE 
    user 
SET 
    user.name = :v1
WHERE 
    (user.username LIKE :v2) 
    AND (user.user_id BETWEEN :v3 AND :v4)
ORDER BY 
    user.user_id ASC 
LIMIT :v5

3.4. DELETE Statement

The DELETE statement is used just like UPDATE, but no values are set.

Examples provided below.

3.4.1. Empty table with DELETE statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->delete()
    ->setTable('user');
   
$sql = $builder->write($query);   

Output:

DELETE FROM user

3.4.2. Basic DELETE statement

Important including the the where statement is critical, or all table rows will be deleted with the provided values if the statement is executed.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->delete()
    ->setTable('user');

$query
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 100)
	->end();

$query
    ->limit(1);
   
$sql = $builder->write($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

DELETE FROM user WHERE (user.user_id = :v1) LIMIT :v2
[':v1' => 100, ':v2' => 1];

3.4.2. Elaborated DELETE statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Syntax\OrderBy;
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->delete()
    ->setTable('user');
    
$query
    ->where()
    ->like('username', '%N')
    ->between('user_id', 1, 2000)
	->end();
        
$query
    ->orderBy('user_id', OrderBy::ASC)
    ->limit(1);            
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

DELETE FROM 
    user 
WHERE 
    (user.username LIKE :v1) 
    AND (user.user_id BETWEEN :v2 AND :v3)
ORDER BY 
    user.user_id ASC 
LIMIT :v4

3.5. INTERSECT Statement

INTERSECT is not supported by MySQL. Same results can be achieved by using INNER JOIN statement instead.

The INTERSECT statement is really straightforward.

3.5.1 Basic INTERSECT statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$select1 = $builder->select()->setTable('user');
$select2 = $builder->select()->setTable('user_emails');
   
$query = $builder->intersect()
    ->add($select1)
    ->add($select2);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output

SELECT user.* FROM user
INTERSECT
SELECT user_email.* FROM user_email

3.6. MINUS Statement

MINUS is not supported by MySQL. Same results can be achieved by using a LEFT JOIN statement in combination with an IS NULL or NOT IN condition instead.

The MINUS statement is really straightforward.

3.6.1 Basic MINUS statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$select1 = $builder->select()->setTable('user');
$select2 = $builder->select()->setTable('user_emails');
   
$query = $builder->minus($select1, $select2);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output

SELECT user.* FROM user
MINUS
SELECT user_email.* FROM user_email

3.7. UNION Statement

The UNION statement is really straightforward.

3.7.1 Basic UNION statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$select1 = $builder->select()->setTable('user');
$select2 = $builder->select()->setTable('user_emails');
   
$query = $builder->union()
    ->add($select1)
    ->add($select2);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output

SELECT user.* FROM user
UNION
SELECT user_email.* FROM user_email

3.8. UNION ALL Statement

The UNION ALL statement is really straightforward.

3.8.1 Basic UNION ALL statement

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$select1 = $builder->select()->setTable('user');
$select2 = $builder->select()->setTable('user_emails');
   
$query = $builder->unionAll()
    ->add($select1)
    ->add($select2);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output

SELECT user.* FROM user
UNION ALL
SELECT user_email.* FROM user_email

4. Advanced Quering

4.1. Filtering using WHERE

The following operators are available for filtering using WHERE conditionals:

public function subWhere($operator = 'OR');
public function equals($column, $value);        
public function notEquals($column, $value);
public function greaterThan($column, $value);
public function greaterThanOrEqual($column, $value);
public function lessThan($column, $value);
public function lessThanOrEqual($column, $value);
public function like($column, $value);
public function notLike($column, $value);
public function match(array $columns, array $values);
public function matchBoolean(array $columns, array $values);
public function matchWithQueryExpansion(array $columns, array $values);
public function in($column, array $values);
public function notIn($column, array $values);
public function between($column, $a, $b);
public function notBetween($column, $a, $b);
public function isNull($column);
public function isNotNull($column);
public function exists(Select $select);
public function notExists(Select $select);
public function addBitClause($column, $value);    
public function asLiteral($literal);

4.2. Changing WHERE logical operator

WHERE default's operator must be changed passing to the where method the logical operator OR.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->where('OR')
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
    ->like('name', '%N%')
	->end();       
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT user.* FROM user WHERE (user.user_id = :v1) OR (user.name LIKE :v2)

4.3. Grouping with GROUP BY and HAVING

Default logical operator for joining more than one HAVING condition is AND.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns([
        'userId'   => 'user_id',
        'username' => 'name',
        'email'    => 'email',
        'created_at'
    ])
    ->groupBy(['user_id', 'name'])
    ->having()
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
    ->equals('user_id', 2);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id AS 'userId',
    user.name AS 'username',
    user.email AS 'email',
    user.created_at 
FROM 
    user 
GROUP BY 
    user.user_id, user.name 
HAVING 
    (user.user_id = :v1)
    AND (user.user_id = :v2)

4.3.1 Available HAVING operators

Same operators used in the WHERE statement are available for HAVING operations.

4.4. Changing HAVING logical operator

HAVING default's operator must be changed passing to the having method the logical operator OR.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns([
        'userId'   => 'user_id',
        'username' => 'name',
        'email'    => 'email',
        'created_at'
    ])
    ->groupBy(['user_id', 'name'])
    ->having('OR')
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
    ->equals('user_id', 2);
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id AS 'userId',
    user.name AS 'username',
    user.email AS 'email',
    user.created_at 
FROM 
    user 
GROUP BY 
    user.user_id, user.name 
HAVING 
    (user.user_id = :v1)
    OR (user.user_id = :v2)

4.5. Columns as SELECT statements

Sometimes, a column needs to be set as a column. SQL Query Builder got you covered on this one too! Check the example below.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$selectRole = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('role')
    ->setColumns(array('role_name'))
    ->limit(1)
    ->where()
    ->equals('role_id', 3);

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns(array('user_id', 'username'))
    ->setSelectAsColumn(array('user_role' => $selectRole))
    ->setSelectAsColumn(array($selectRole))
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 4)
	->end();
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id,
    user.username,
    (
        SELECT 
            role.role_name 
        FROM 
            role 
        WHERE 
            (role.role_id = :v1) 
        LIMIT :v2, :v3
    ) AS 'user_role', 
    (
        SELECT 
            role.role_name  
        FROM 
            role 
        WHERE 
            (role.role_id = :v4) 
        LIMIT :v5, :v6
    ) AS 'role' 
FROM 
    user 
WHERE 
    (user.user_id = :v7)

4.6. Columns being Values

There are time where you need to force the same column structure (eg: UNIONs) even when lacking of a column or value. Forcing column with values gets you covered.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns(array('user_id', 'username'))
    ->setValueAsColumn('10', 'priority')
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
	->end();
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id,
    user.username,
    :v1 AS 'priority' 
FROM 
    user 
WHERE
    (user.user_id = :v2)

4.7. Columns using FUNCTIONS

Example for MAX function.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns(array('user_id', 'username'))
    ->setFunctionAsColumn('MAX', array('user_id'), 'max_id')
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
	->end(); 
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id,
    user.username,
    MAX(user_id) AS 'max_id'
FROM 
    user
WHERE
    (user.user_id = :v1)

Example for CURRENT_TIMESTAMP function.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setColumns(array('user_id', 'username'))
    ->setFunctionAsColumn('CURRENT_TIMESTAMP', array(), 'server_time')
    ->where()
    ->equals('user_id', 1)
	->end();
   
$sql = $builder->writeFormatted($query);    
$values = $builder->getValues();

Output:

SELECT 
    user.user_id,
    user.username,
    CURRENT_TIMESTAMP AS 'server_time' 
FROM 
    user 
WHERE
    (user.user_id = :v1)

5. Commenting queries

The query builder allows adding comments to all query methods by using the setComment method.

Some useful use cases examples can be :

  • Explain difficult queries or why of its existence.
  • Finding slow queries from its comments.

Usage:

<?php
use Krinkle\Sql\QueryBuilder\Builder\GenericBuilder;

$builder = new GenericBuilder(); 

$query = $builder->select()
    ->setTable('user')
    ->setComment('This is a comment');
    
$sql = $builder->write($query);   

Output:

-- This is a comment
SELECT user.* FROM user

6. Quality Code

Testing has been done using PHPUnit and Travis-CI. All code has been tested to be compatible from PHP 5.4 up to PHP 5.6 and HHVM.

To run the test suite, you need Composer:

    php composer.phar install --dev
    php bin/phpunit
