pg_parameter_status

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

pg_parameter_statusLooks up a current parameter setting of the server

Descripción

pg_parameter_status(PgSql\Connection $connection = ?, string $param_name): string

Looks up a current parameter setting of the server.

Certain parameter values are reported by the server automatically at connection startup or whenever their values change. pg_parameter_status() can be used to interrogate these settings. It returns the current value of a parameter if known, or false if the parameter is not known.

Parameters reported as of PostgreSQL 8.0 include server_version, server_encoding, client_encoding, is_superuser, session_authorization, DateStyle, TimeZone, and integer_datetimes. (server_encoding, TimeZone, and integer_datetimes were not reported by releases before 8.0.) Note that server_version, server_encoding and integer_datetimes cannot change after PostgreSQL startup.

PostgreSQL 7.3 or lower servers do not report parameter settings, pg_parameter_status() includes logic to obtain values for server_version and client_encoding anyway. Applications are encouraged to use pg_parameter_status() rather than ad hoc code to determine these values.

Precaución

On a pre-7.4 PostgreSQL server, changing client_encoding via SET after connection startup will not be reflected by pg_parameter_status().

Parámetros

connection

An PgSql\Connection instance. When connection is unspecified, the default connection is used. The default connection is the last connection made by pg_connect() or pg_pconnect().

Advertencia

As of PHP 8.1.0, using the default connection is deprecated.

param_name

Possible param_name values include server_version, server_encoding, client_encoding, is_superuser, session_authorization, DateStyle, TimeZone, and integer_datetimes. Note that this value is case-sensitive.

Valores devueltos

A string containing the value of the parameter, false on failure or invalid param_name.

Historial de cambios

Versión Descripción
8.1.0 The connection parameter expects an PgSql\Connection instance now; previously, a recurso was expected.

Although PostgreSQL generally recognizes configuration parameters in a case-insensitive fashion (e.g., "SHOW datestyle" shows the "DateStyle" value), the pg_parameter_status() function is case sensitive.

pg_parameter_status() returns boolean FALSE for 'client', 'protocol' and 'server'.
Use pg_version() instead to get the software version numbers and the protocol.
