Databases
=========
Setup
-----
In order to interact with the functionality of databases, you must first
retrieve the details of the instance itself. To do this, you must substitute
`{instanceId}` for your instance's ID:
.. code-block:: php
$instance = $service->instance('{instanceId}');
Creating a new database
-----------------------
To create a new database, you must supply it with a name; you can
optionally specify its character set and collating sequence:
.. code-block:: php
// Create an empty object
$database = $instance->database();
// Send to API
$database->create(array(
'name' => 'production',
'character_set' => 'utf8',
'collate' => 'utf8_general_ci'
));
You can find values for ``character_set`` and ``collate`` at `the MySQL
website <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/charset-mysql.html>`__.
Deleting a database
-------------------
.. code-block:: php
$database->delete();
.. note::
This is a destructive operation: all your data will be wiped away and will
not be retrievable.
Listing databases
-----------------
.. code-block:: php
$databases = $service->databaseList();
foreach ($databases as $database) {
/** @param $database OpenCloud\Database\Resource\Database */
}
