PHP 7 Cookbook

This repository is designed to supplement the examples discussed in the PHP 7 Programming Cookbook

Database Setup

• Read through Chapter 1, "Defining a test MySQL database"
• See "db.config.php" for example MySQL params; adjust to match your environment
• Use this SQL statement to match the examples in the book:

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS dbname DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8
COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
CREATE USER 'cook'@'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password;
SET PASSWORD FOR 'cook'@'%' = PASSWORD('book');
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dbname.* to 'cook'@'%';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dbname.* to 'cook'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

• php7cookbook.sql contains all the sample data used in the book
• In order to use the sample data in the world_city_codes database table, you'll need to download it separately from this URL:
  • opensource.unlikelysource.org/world_city_data.sql.zip
  • you can then import world_city_codes.sql into the php7cookbook database separately
