Question

when i want to connect database in zend framework with zend_Db, in each controller or model must write this code:

$params = array(
'host'           => '127.0.0.1',
'username'       => 'webuser',
'password'       => 'xxxxxxxx',
'dbname'         => 'test',
'charset'        => 'utf8'
);

but when use Doctrine it’s enough to write this code in application.ini

doctrine.dsn = "mysql://user:pass@localhost/dbase"

how i can use zend_Db with out set connection setting in each file?

Answer 1

open

application/configs/application.ini

add following lines

resources.db.adapter = PDO_MYSQL
resources.db.isDefaultAdapter = true
resources.db.params.host = localhost
resources.db.params.username = root
resources.db.params.password = 
resources.db.params.dbname = foo

and then inside your Bootstrap.php

do

public function _initSetup()
{
$this->bootstrap('db');
}

and then whereever or whenever you need db instance simply do

$db = Zend_Db_Table::getDefaultAdapter();
