Opens a stream resource to read a BLOB

Description

public resource SQLite3::openBlob ( string $table , string $column , int $rowid [, string $dbname = "main" [, int $flags = SQLITE3_OPEN_READONLY ]] )

Opens a stream resource to read or write a BLOB, which would be selected by:

SELECT column FROM dbname.table WHERE rowid = rowid

Note: It is not possible to change the size of a BLOB by writing to the stream. Instead, an UPDATE statement has to be executed, possibly using SQLite's zeroblob() function to set the desired BLOB size.

Liste de paramètres

table: The table name.
column: The column name.
rowid: The row ID.
dbname: The symbolic name of the DB
flags: Either SQLITE3_OPEN_READONLY or SQLITE3_OPEN_READWRITE to open the stream for reading only, or for reading and writing, respectively.

Valeurs de retour

Returns a stream resource, ou FALSE si une erreur survient.

Historique

Version	Description
7.2.0	The `flags` parameter has been added, allowing to write BLOBs; formerly only reading was supported.

Exemple #1 SQLite3::openBlob() example


<?php
$conn = new SQLite3(':memory:');
$conn->exec('CREATE TABLE test (text text)');
$conn->exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES ('Lorem ipsum')");
$stream = $conn->openBlob('test', 'text', 1);
echo stream_get_contents($stream);
fclose($stream); // mandatory, otherwise the next line would fail
$conn->close();
?>

Exemple #2 Incrementally writing a BLOB


<?php
$conn = new SQLite3(':memory:');
$conn->exec('CREATE TABLE test (text text)');
$conn->exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES (zeroblob(36))");
$stream = $conn->openBlob('test', 'text', 1, 'main', SQLITE3_OPEN_READWRITE);
for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) {
    fwrite($stream,  "Lorem ipsum\n");
}
fclose($stream);
echo $conn->querySingle("SELECT text FROM test");
$conn->close();
