Doctrine DBAL compilation target for RulerZ

Doctrine DBAL compilation target for RulerZ.

Usage

Doctrine DBAL is one of the targets supported by RulerZ.

This cookbook will show you how to retrieve records using Doctrine DBAL and RulerZ.

Here is a summary of what you will have to do:

• configure Doctrine DBAL;
• configure RulerZ;
• filter your target.

Configure Doctrine DBAL

This subject won't be directly treated here. You can either follow the official documentation or use a bundle/module/whatever the framework you're using promotes.

Configure RulerZ

Once Doctrine DBAL is installed and configured we can the RulerZ engine:

$rulerz = new RulerZ(
    $compiler, [
        new \RulerZ\DoctrineDBAL\Target\DoctrineDBAL(), // this line is Doctrine DBAL-specific
        // other compilation targets...
    ]
);

The only Doctrine DBAL-related configuration is the DoctrineDBAL target being added to the list of the known compilation targets.

Filter your target

Now that both the DBAL and RulerZ are ready, you can use them to retrieve data.

The DoctrineDBAL instance that we previously injected into the RulerZ engine only knows how to use Doctrine\DBAL\Query\QueryBuilder so the first step is to create one and configure it:

$connection = DriverManager::getConnection([/** connection parameters */]);
$queryBuilder = $connection->createQueryBuilder();

$queryBuilder
    ->select('pseudo', 'gender', 'points')
    ->from('players');

And as usual, we call RulerZ with our target (the QueryBuilder object) and our rule. RulerZ will build the right executor for the given target and use it to filter the data, or in our case to retrieve data from a database.

$rule  = 'gender = :gender and points > :points';
$parameters = [
    'points' => 30,
    'gender' => 'M',
];

var_dump(
    iterator_to_array($rulerz->filter($queryBuilder, $rule, $parameters))
);

That's it!
