I had some thoughts about how to handle different databases. I think
we should have one file per database. For example:
mysql.php
postgresql.php
Each of these files will contains functions that returns an SQL
statement. That statement is then used by the main body of code.
example:
function sql_CalculateBytesPeriod($Server, $StartPeriod, $EndPeriod)
{
$sql = "
SELECT sum(JobBytes) as jobbytes
FROM job
WHERE endtime < '$EndPeriod'
AND endtime > '$StartDate'
AND name='$server'";
return $sql
}
To document what goes into each file, have a main 'documention'
example.
<?php
function sql_CalculateBytesPeriod($Server, $StartPeriod, $EndPeriod)
{
# obtain the number of bytes backed up from a particular server
# between two given dates.
#
# example result set:
/*
bacula=> select SUM(JobFiles) from Job WHERE EndTime < '2005-06-18
23:59:59' and EndTime > '2005-05-18 00:00:00' and Name='nezlok'
bacula-> ;
sum
------
8817
(1 row)
bacula=>
*/
return '';
}
With this approach, the documentation is in one place. We have an
example result set.
