How to define the use of utf-8 in Doctrine 2 in Zend Framework application.ini, when using Bisna
If you are not using Bisna, you could simply do something like the following:
Pass the config stuff directly to EntityManager's connection options
(although driverOptions
is not documented)
// $options is a simple array to hold your data
$connectionOptions = array(
'driver' => $options['conn']['driv'],
'user' => $options['conn']['user'],
'password' => $options['conn']['pass'],
'dbname' => $options['conn']['dbname'],
'host' => $options['conn']['host'],
'charset' => 'utf8',
'driverOptions' => array(
1002 => 'SET NAMES utf8'
)
);
$em = \Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager::create($connectionOptions, $config);
I'm using the following custom bootstrap resource to initialize doctrine therefore $options
is in application.ini and is accessible there by $this->getOptions()
;
// \library\My\Application\Resource\Doctrine.php
class My_Application_Resource_Doctrine extends Zend_Application_Resource_ResourceAbstract
{
public function init()
{
$options = $this->getOptions();
$config = new \Doctrine\ORM\Configuration();
//doctrine autoloader, config and other initializations
...
$connectionOptions = array(
.... //see above
);
$em = \Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager::create($connectionOptions, $config);
$registry = Zend_Registry::getInstance();
$registry->em = $em;
return $em;
}
}
It will bootstrap automatically if you put in application.ini
resources.doctrine.conn.host = '127.0.0.1'
resources.doctrine.conn.user = '...'
resources.doctrine.conn.pass = '...'
....
works fine for me
resources.doctrine.dbal.connections.default.parameters.driverOptions.1002 = "SET NAMES 'UTF8'"
1002
is the integer value of PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND
:
Command to execute when connecting to the MySQL server. Will automatically be re-executed when reconnecting. Note, this constant can only be used in the driver_options array when constructing a new database handle.
this worked for me. config/autoload/doctrine.local.php
<?php
return array(
'doctrine' => array(
'connection' => array(
'orm_default' => array(
'driverClass' => 'Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDOMySql\Driver',
'params' => array(
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => '3306',
'user' => '...',
'password' => '...',
'dbname' => '...',
'driverOptions' => array(
\PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND => 'SET NAMES utf8'
)
),
)
)
)
);
