How to get database name in PDO?
Given you're on mysql, you can do select database() to get the name of the default database.
/* @var $pdo PDO */$pdo->query('select database()')->fetchColumn();
Nope, there is no built-in feature.
But you can extend class MyPdo extends PDO, parse and store dsn and return it by some accessor
class MyPdo extends PDO{ ... /** * @param string $dsnParameter * @param string|null $default * @throws RuntimeException * @return string|null */ public function getDsnValue($dsnParameter, $default = NULL) { $pattern = sprintf('~%s=([^;]*)(?:;|$)~', preg_quote($dsnParameter, '~')); $result = preg_match($pattern, $this->dsn, $matches); if ($result === FALSE) { throw new RuntimeException('Regular expression matching failed unexpectedly.'); } return $result ? $matches[1] : $default; } ...
You could use the setAttribute() (essentially a key value pair) method to store the database name when you set it up initially, then use the getAttribute() later in your code to see what the value is.
