Heroku can't find PDOServiceProvider


So I followed the tutorial provided by heroku on how to deploy a php app https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-php#introduction

Everything works fine, except when I get to setting up the database. At first I tried looking for different solutions online (i.e. Dokku deployed Silex can't find PdoServiceProvider), but not seens to work.

Right now, my code looks like this:

<?php
    use Csanquer\Silex\PdoServiceProvider\Provider\PDOServiceProvider;
    //use Silex\Application;

    $dbopts = parse_url(getenv('DATABASE_URL'));
    $pdo = new PDOServiceProvider('pdo');
    //$app = new Application();
    $app->register($pdo,
        array(
            'pdo.server' => array(
                'driver'   => 'pgsql',
                'user' => $dbopts["user"],
                'password' => $dbopts["pass"],
                'host' => $dbopts["host"],
                'port' => $dbopts["port"],
                'dbname' => ltrim($dbopts["path"],'/')
            )
        )
    );
?>

And I get the following message:

Uncaught Error: Class 'Csanquer\Silex\PdoServiceProvider\Provider\PDOServiceProvider' not found in /app/web/index.php:6

How can I fix it?


Solution

  • I hope you've used composer before, if not, let me know please. Try to install Doctrine DBAL using your composer:

    composer require "doctrine/dbal:~2.5"
    

    Once you've installed Doctrine you can use the following lines of code:

    $config = new \Doctrine\DBAL\Configuration();
    
    $connParams = array(
        'driver'   => #driver -> pdo_mysql,
        'dbname'   => #dbname,
        'host'     => #host -> localhost,
        'user'     => #user,
        'password' => #password,
        'charset'  => #charset -> utf8
    );
    $conn = \Doctrine\DBAL\DriverManager::getConnection($connParams, $config);
    

    You can now use something like:

    $conn->query(#SomeSQL)
    $conn->prepare(#SomeSQL)
    

    Or in the way you like to do it:

    $app->register(new Silex\Provider\DoctrineServiceProvider(), array(
        'db.options' => array(
            'driver'   => #driver -> pdo_mysql,
            'dbname'   => #dbname,
            'host'     => #host -> localhost,
            'user'     => #user,
            'password' => #password,
            'charset'  => #charset -> utf8
        ),
    ));
    

    You can now use something like:

    $app['db']->query(#someSQL);
