MySQLi driver (connector) for Laravel **8.x** Eloquent database

## Installation

- Install via composer

```sh

composer require shakahl/laravel-eloquent-mysqli

```

- After installing, add provider on config/app.php on your project.

```php

// app.php

    'providers' => [

        ...

        'LaravelEloquentMySQLi\MySQLiServiceProvider',

    ],

```

## Usage

You should configure your database connection to use the ```mysqli``` driver.

**Example**

```php

//...

  'connections' => [

        'mysql' => [

            'driver'    => 'mysqli', // Sets mysqli driver

            'host'      => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),

            'port'      => env('DB_PORT', 3306),

            'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),

            'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),

            'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),

            'charset'   => env('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'),

            'collation' => env('DB_COLLATION', 'utf8_unicode_ci'),

            'prefix'    => env('DB_PREFIX', ''),

            'timezone'  => env('DB_TIMEZONE', '+00:00'),

            'strict'    => env('DB_STRICT_MODE', false),

        ],

    ]

//...

```

## Notes

### Accessing underlying mysqli instance

There are some inconsistent methods since Laravel only supports PDO officially.

You can access the raw, underlying MySQLi instance using the following methods on a connection instance:

```php

$mysqli = DB::connection()->getMySqli();

// or

$mysqli = DB::connection()->getReadMySqli();

// or

$mysqli = DB::connection()->getPdo();

// or

$mysqli = DB::connection()->getReadPdo();

```

### Escaping

Unfortunately PHP's mysqli driver does not support named parameter binding so this connector uses custom implementation for it.
