AsyncMysqlRowBlock::isNull

Returns whether a field (column) value is null

public function isNull(
  int $row,
  mixed $field,
): bool;

Parameters

  • int $row - the row index.
  • mixed $field - the field index (int) or field name (string).

Returns

  • bool - true if the column value is null; false otherwise.

Examples

The following example uses AsyncMysqlRowBlock::isNull to check if a field value is null (e.g., if a field was set in SQL to something like age SMALLINT NULL, then that field could be null).

use \Hack\UserDocumentation\API\Examples\AsyncMysql\ConnectionInfo as CI;

async function connect(
  \AsyncMysqlConnectionPool $pool,
): Awaitable<\AsyncMysqlConnection> {
  return await $pool->connect(
    CI::$host,
    CI::$port,
    CI::$db,
    CI::$user,
    CI::$passwd,
  );
}
async function simple_query(): Awaitable<int> {
  $pool = new \AsyncMysqlConnectionPool(darray[]);
  $conn = await connect($pool);
  $result = await $conn->query('SELECT * FROM test_table WHERE userID < 50');
  $conn->close();
  // A call to $result->rowBlocks() actually pops the first element of the
  // row block Vector. So the call actually mutates the Vector.
  $row_blocks = $result->rowBlocks();
  if (!$row_blocks->isEmpty()) {
    // An AsyncMysqlRowBlock
    $row_block = $row_blocks[0];
    if (!$row_block->isNull(0, 'age')) {
      return $row_block->getFieldAsInt(0, 'age');
    }
    return -1;
  } else {
    return -1;
  }
}
