◆ delete_records_subquery()

moodle_database::delete_records_subquery ( string  $table,
string  $field,
string  $alias,
string  $subquery,
array  $params = [] 
)
inherited

Deletes records from a table using a subquery.

The subquery should return a list of values in a single column, which match one field from the table being deleted.

The $alias parameter must be set to the name of the single column in your subquery result (e.g. if the subquery is 'SELECT id FROM whatever', then it should be 'id'). This is not needed on most databases, but MySQL requires it.

(On database where the subquery is inefficient, it is implemented differently.)

Parameters
string$tableTable to delete from
string$fieldField in table to match
string$aliasName of single column in subquery e.g. 'id'
string$subquerySubquery that will return values of the field to delete
array$paramsParameters for subquery

)
inherited

Get a number of records as a moodle_recordset where all the given conditions met.

Selects records from the table $table.

If specified, only records meeting $conditions.

If specified, the results will be sorted as specified by $sort. This is added to the SQL as "ORDER BY $sort". Example values of $sort might be "time ASC" or "time DESC".

If $fields is specified, only those fields are returned.

Since this method is a little less readable, use of it should be restricted to code where it's possible there might be large datasets being returned. For known small datasets use get_records - it leads to simpler code.

If you only want some of the records, specify $limitfrom and $limitnum. The query will skip the first $limitfrom records (according to the sort order) and then return the next $limitnum records. If either of $limitfrom or $limitnum is specified, both must be present.

The return value is a moodle_recordset if the query succeeds. If an error occurs, false is returned.

◆ start_delegated_transaction()

moodle_database::start_delegated_transaction ( )
inherited

On DBs that support it, switch to transaction mode and begin a transaction you'll need to ensure you call allow_commit() on the returned object or your changes will be lost.

this is very useful for massive updates

Delegated database transactions can be nested, but only one actual database transaction is used for the outer-most delegated transaction. This method returns a transaction object which you should keep until the end of the delegated transaction. The actual database transaction will only be committed if all the nested delegated transactions commit successfully. If any part of the transaction rolls back then the whole thing is rolled back.

Return values
moodle_transaction
