Atlas.Query: Simple. Sensible. SQL.

I am happy to announce that Atlas.Query is now stable and ready for production
use! Installaton is as easy as composer require atlas/query ~1.0.

With Atlas.Query and any PDO instance, you can build and execute your queries in a single fluent series of method calls:

use Atlas\Query\Select;

$rows = Select::new($pdo)
    ->columns('*')
    ->from('posts')
    ->where('id IN ', $ids)
    ->fetchAll();

foreach ($rows as $row) {
    // ...
}

If you prefer, you can exercise fine control over your PDO connection, use a query factory, or build your queries in smaller steps:

use Atlas\Pdo\Connection;
use Atlas\Query\QueryFactory;

$connection = Connection::new(
    'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=testdb',
    'username',
    'password'
);

$queryFactory = new QueryFactory();

$select = $queryFactory->newSelect($connection);
$select->columns('*');
$select->from('posts');
$select->where('id = ', $id);

$row = $select->fetchOne();

Atlas.Query provides the full power of SQL at your fingertips …

$select
    ->columns(...)
    ->from(...)
    ->join(...)
    ->where(...)
    ->groupBy(...)
    ->having(...)
    ->orderBy(...)
    ->limit(...)
    ->offset(...);

… along with UNIONs, paging, sub-selects, inline value binding, and all sorts of fetch and yield styles.

Atlas.Query comes with INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE builders as well:

use Atlas\Query\Insert;

$insert = Insert::new($pdo);

// insert a row ...
$insert->into('posts')
    ->columns([
        'title' => $title,
        'body' => $body,
    ])
    ->raw('created_at', 'NOW()')
    ->perform();

// ... and get back the autoincrement value:
$post_id = $insert->getLastInsertId();

Do you work on different project with different datbase backends? Atlas.Query lets you use the same interface for them all, while not restricting you to a common subset of functionality. MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and SQL Server are all supported explicitly.

And if you discover you need more than just a query system, you’ll have a clear refactoring path towards Atlas.Orm. If you are looking for a modern, stable, easy-to-use query system, try Atlas.Query in your project!
