Class Postgres

Represents a database driver containing all specificities for a database engine including its SQL dialect.

Cake\Database\Driver implements Cake\Database\DriverInterface
Extended by Cake\Database\Driver\Postgres uses Cake\Database\Dialect\PostgresDialectTrait

Properties summary

  • $_baseConfig protected
    array
    Base configuration settings for Postgres driver

Inherited Properties

Method Summary

  • connect() public
    Establishes a connection to the database server
  • enabled() public
    Returns whether php is able to use this driver for connecting to database
  • setEncoding() public
    Sets connection encoding
  • setSchema() public

    Sets connection default schema, if any relation defined in a query is not fully qualified postgres will fallback to looking the relation into defined default schema
