View source (opens new window)

Arguments

• $typeA (string (opens new window))
• $typeB (string (opens new window))

Returns

boolean (opens new window)

batch()

Since

3.7.0

Starts a batch query, similar to yii\db\Query::batch() (opens new window).

Each iteration will be a batch of rows.

foreach (Db::batch($query) as $batch) {
    foreach ($batch as $row) {
        // ...
    }
}

If using MySQL and $db is null, a new unbuffered (opens new window) DB connection will be created for the query so that the data can actually be retrieved in batches, to work around limitations (opens new window) with query batching in MySQL. Therefore keep in mind that the data retrieved by the batch query won’t reflect any changes that have been made over the main DB connection, if a transaction is currently active.

Creates and executes a command to insert rows into a database table if they do not already exist (matching unique constraints), or update them if they do.

The method will properly escape the column names, and bind the values to be inserted.

If the table contains dateCreated, dateUpdated, and/or uid columns, those values will be included for new rows automatically, if not already set.
