A production-oriented PDO helper for PHP applications that need a small, dependency-free database abstraction with prepared statements, transaction helpers, and predictable error handling.

• PDO-first API with prepared statements by default
• Works with MySQL/MariaDB and Microsoft SQL Server
• Safe defaults for modern workloads:
  • PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION
  • PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES = false (MySQL)
  • UTF-8 (utf8mb4) MySQL charset by default
• Optional connection singleton keyed per connection config
• Transaction helpers (beginTransaction, commit, rollBack, transaction)
• Query execution helpers (execute, fetch, fetchAll)
• Optional query logger for observability and diagnostics

composer require a1phanumeric/php-mysql-class

• PHP >=7.4
• ext-pdo
• For MySQL: ext-pdo_mysql
• For SQL Server: ext-sqlsrv

<?php

use A1phanumeric\DBPDO;

$db = new DBPDO('127.0.0.1', 'app_db', 'app_user', 'secret');

$user = $db->fetch('SELECT id, email FROM users WHERE id = ?', 42);

$db->execute(
    'UPDATE users SET email = ? WHERE id = ?',
    ['[email protected]', 42]
);

$user = $db->fetch('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?', 42);

if ($user === null) {
    // Not found or query failed
}

$users = $db->fetchAll('SELECT id, email FROM users WHERE status = ?', 'active');

$usersByEmail = $db->fetchAll('SELECT id, email FROM users', null, 'email');

$db->transaction(function (DBPDO $tx) {
    $tx->execute('UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - ? WHERE id = ?', [100, 1]);
    $tx->execute('UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance + ? WHERE id = ?', [100, 2]);
});

$db = DBPDO::getInstance('127.0.0.1', 'app_db', 'app_user', 'secret');

$db = new DBPDO('127.0.0.1', 'app_db', 'app_user', 'secret', false, [
    'persistent' => false,
    'timeout' => 5,
    'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
    'port' => 3306,
]);

SQL Server example:

$db = new DBPDO('sql.example.local', 'app_db', 'app_user', 'secret', true, [
    'port' => 1433,
    'encrypt' => true,
    'trust_server_certificate' => false,
]);

$db->setQueryLogger(function (string $query, array $params, ?float $durationMs, ?string $error) {
    error_log(json_encode([
        'query' => $query,
        'params' => $params,
        'duration_ms' => $durationMs,
        'error' => $error,
    ]));
});

If a query fails, inspect:

$lastError = $db->getLastError();

• execute(string $query, $values = null, bool $debug = false): PDOStatement|false
• fetch(string $query, $values = null): ?array
• fetchAll(string $query, $values = null, ?string $key = null): array
• table_exists(string $table): bool
• beginTransaction(): bool
• commit(): bool
• rollBack(): bool
• inTransaction(): bool
• transaction(Closure $callback)
• lastInsertId(): string
• getPdo(): ?PDO
• getLastError(): ?string
• setQueryLogger(callable $logger): self

• Existing constructor usage continues to work.
• Existing execute, fetch, and fetchAll method names remain unchanged.
• execute(..., $debug = true) is deprecated and should be replaced with setQueryLogger().
• Singleton behavior is now safer for multi-database apps: each unique connection configuration gets its own instance.

• Always use placeholders with bound parameters for user input.
• Avoid persistent connections unless you have validated behavior under your workload.
• Enable TLS/secure transport for SQL Server (encrypt => true) in production.

Packagist picks up new versions from Git tags.

1. Update docs/changelog for the release.
2. Commit and push to your default branch.
3. Tag using semantic versioning.

git tag -a v3.0.0 -m "Release v3.0.0"
git push origin v3.0.0

4. Ensure your Packagist package auto-update webhook is configured, or trigger an update manually in Packagist.

Recommended versioning for these changes: major release (v3.0.0) for a clean SemVer boundary on the upgraded production behavior and API surface.

The legacy class is still included in this repository:

• class.MySQL.php
• class.MySQL.README.md
