mysql_list_dbs
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
mysql_list_dbs — List databases available on a MySQL server
This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
- SQL Query: SHOW DATABASES
Description
$link_identifier = NULL
] )Returns a result pointer containing the databases available from the current mysql daemon.
This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.4.0. Relying on this function is highly discouraged.
Parameters
-
link_identifier -
The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect() is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect() was called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an
E_WARNINGlevel error is generated.
Return Values
Returns a result pointer resource on success, or FALSE on
failure. Use the mysql_tablename() function to traverse
this result pointer, or any function for result tables, such as
mysql_fetch_array().
Examples
Example #1 mysql_list_dbs() example
<?php
// Usage without mysql_list_dbs()
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
$res = mysql_query("SHOW DATABASES");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
echo $row['Database'] . "\n";
}
// Deprecated as of PHP 5.4.0
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
$db_list = mysql_list_dbs($link);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($db_list)) {
echo $row->Database . "\n";
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
database1 database2 database3

Note:
For backward compatibility, the following deprecated alias may be used: mysql_listdbs()

Коментарии
The result pointer contains only the databases for which the mysql_user has the select priviledge granted.The example is wrong in Spanish version.
ERROR: mysql_fetch_assoc() expects parameter 1 to be resource, null given in XXX on line 5
while ($fila = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
OK.
while ($fila = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultado)) {
There is no direct equivalent of mysql_list_dbs() as a mysqli_list_dbs() command, but you can query "show databases" instead.
So this:
$db_list = mysql_list_dbs($connect); //mysql
Is equivalent to this:
$db_list = mysqli_query($connect, "SHOW DATABASES"); //mysqli
