How can I get the auto_increment column name from a table (NOT THE LAST INSERT ID) ?
for example:
create table members (member_id int auto_increment, name char(50), primary key(member_id));
What can I do to get the member_id
from table members.
I am making a php class, and I am going to add a method that will allow you to get this like this:
$members->findById(123);
It should know to find the auto increment column and build a query based on that then do the query.
You can get the column with
show columns from members where extra like '%auto_increment%'
The first column Field
is your auto_increment column name.
$sql = "show columns from members where extra like '%auto_increment%'";
$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql) or die($dbh->error());
$sth->execute() or die($dbh->error());
$row = $sth->fetch();
$column = $row['Field'];
SELECT column_name
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE table_name = "members"
AND extra = "auto_increment";
Try this!
I implemented this type of function as part of the Zend_Db component when I worked on the Zend Framework. I found that accessing the INFORMATION_SCHEMA is too slow, so I had to use DESCRIBE instead.
Something like the following (but this is simplified code I just tested, not part of Zend Framework):
function getAutoIncColumn($table)
{
global $dbh;
$stmt = $dbh->query("DESCRIBE `$table`");
while ($row = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)) {
if (strstr($row["Extra"], "auto_increment")) {
return $row["Field"];
}
}
return null;
}
You'll have to prepare the statement dynamically based on the information_schema, then execute it.
PREPARE stmt FROM concat(
'select * from members where ',
(select COLUMN_NAME
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
where table_name='members' and EXTRA like '%auto_increment%'),
'=?'
);
EXECUTE stmt;
