Generating Query Results

+ + +

There are several ways to generate query results:

+ +

result()

+ +

This function returns the query result as an array of objects, or FALSE on failure. + + Typically you'll use this in a foreach loop, like this:

+ + + $query = $this->db->query("YOUR QUERY");
+
+ foreach ($query->result() as $row)
+ {
+    echo $row->title;
+    echo $row->name;
+    echo $row->body;
+ } + +

If you run queries that might not produce a result, you are encouraged to test the result first:

+ + + $query = $this->db->query("YOUR QUERY");
+
+ if ($query->num_rows() > 0)
+ {
+    foreach ($query->result() as $row)
+    {
+       echo $row->title;
+       echo $row->name;
+       echo $row->body;
+    }
+ } + + +

result_array()

+ +

This function returns the query result as a pure array, or FALSE on failure. Typically you'll use this in a foreach loop, like this:

+ + $query = $this->db->query("YOUR QUERY");
+
+ foreach ($query->result_array() as $row)
+ {
+    echo $row['title'];
+    echo $row['name'];
+    echo $row['body'];
+ } + +

result('array')

+ +

Identical to $this->db->result_array().

+ + +

row()

+ +

This function returns a single result row. If your query has more than one row, it returns only the first row. + The result is returned as an object. Here's a usage example:

+ + $query = $this->db->query("YOUR QUERY");
+
+ if ($query->num_rows() > 0)
+ {
+    $row = $query->row(); +

+    echo $row->title;
+    echo $row->name;
+    echo $row->body;
+ } + + +

If you want a specific row returned you can submit the row number as a digit in the first parameter: + + $row = $query->row(5); + + +

row_array()

+ +

Identical to the above row() function, except it returns an array. Example:

+ + + $query = $this->db->query("YOUR QUERY");
+
+ if ($query->num_rows() > 0)
+ {
+    $row = $query->row_array(); +

+    echo $row['title'];
+    echo $row['name'];
+    echo $row['body'];
+ } + + + +

If you want a specific row returned you can submit the row number as a digit in the first parameter: + + $row = $query->row_array(5); + + +

In addition, you can walk forward/backwards/first/last through your results using these variations:

+ +

+ $row = $query->first_row()
+ $row = $query->last_row()
+ $row = $query->next_row()
+ $row = $query->previous_row() +

+ +

By default they return an object unless you put the word "array" in the parameter:

+ +

+ $row = $query->first_row('array')
+ $row = $query->last_row('array')
+ $row = $query->next_row('array')
+ $row = $query->previous_row('array') +

+ + + +


Result Helper Functions

+ + +

$query->num_rows()

+

The number of rows returned by the query. Note: In this example, $query is the variable that the query result object is assigned to:

+ +$query = $this->db->query('SELECT * FROM my_table');

+echo $query->num_rows(); + + +

$query->num_fields()

+

The number of FIELDS (columns) returned by the query. Make sure to call the function using your query result object:

+ +$query = $this->db->query('SELECT * FROM my_table');

+echo $query->num_fields(); + + + + + + +
