Question

Using Zend DB. I am trying to figure out how to write this query using the DB Class.

select 
   org.orgid
   org.role
   user.userid
   user.firstname
from orgTable org
join userTable user on org.userid = user.userid
where org.orgid = 'generated-id'

from the documents I understand or think I understand how to do it with one definition using an AS like condition, but even then Im still not sure. Eventually this will branch out into a multi table join, based on cross table conditions so not sure how to achieve this to begin with.

I think this is what are you looking for

$db = Zend_Db::factory( ...options... );

$select = $db->select()
             ->from(array('org' => 'orgTable'),
                    array( 
                        'orgid' => 'org.orgid', 
                        'role'  =>'org.role',
                        'userid'  =>'user.userid',
                        'firstname' =>'user.firstname'
                    ))
             ->join(array('user' => 'userTable'),
                    'org.userid = user.userid',array())
            ->where('org.orgid = ?',$generated_id);
