Code Examples

pg_convert(
     PgSql\Connection$connection,
     string$table_name,
     array$values,
     [int$flags = 0]
): array|false

pg_convert checks and converts the values in values into suitable values for use in an SQL statement. Precondition for pg_convert is the existence of a table table_name which has at least as many columns as values has elements. The fieldnames in table_name must match the indices in values and the corresponding datatypes must be compatible. Returns an array with the converted values on success, false otherwise.

Note:

Boolean values are accepted and converted to PostgreSQL booleans. String representations of boolean values are also supported. null is converted to PostgreSQL NULL.

Parameters

An PgSql\Connection instance.

Data to be converted.

flags

Any number of PGSQL_CONV_IGNORE_DEFAULT, PGSQL_CONV_FORCE_NULL or PGSQL_CONV_IGNORE_NOT_NULL, combined.
