You might not know this, but you can do a lot more with
phpMyAdmin than just create tables and insert records. This first in a
two-part series takes a look at some of the other features hidden
under the hood of this popular PHP application, explaining how it can
be used to secure access to the MySQL server, manage multiple servers,
manipulate user privileges, view reports on server activity, and
export MySQL data into different formats.

The last series of PHP Foundations explained the basics of files
and directories. If you're making your files public, though, you need
some security. PHP follows the Unix model of user, group, and world
permissions. John Coggeshall explains the Unix permission model.

10/31/2002 01:15 AMAfter over a year of development, the new version of phpMyAdmin (which
allows you to manage your mysql databases from a web server)was
released this month.
I just downloaded it today. After 10 minutes of testing, my opinion is
that it is a step backward. In previous versions, i could enter SQL
from nearly every important screen in phpMyAdmin. Now I have to click
on a database, then select the SQL tab. Secondly, they have now
highlighted the DROP command in red.
After selecting a couple of test tables that I had just created, I
clicked on DROP to remove the test tables, only to find to my horror
that it was DROP DATABASE!
This just reinforces my opinion that good user interface designers are
too well paid to contribute to Open Source projects :-)

We've talked about Packt Publishing befor
e, but now it looks like they're really hitting high gear. Here's
a book about PHPMyAdmin, which I
never thought we'd see but which is badly needed. You may think you
know PHPMyAdmin, but if you look under the hood, there's functionality
there that I bet you never knew existed.
They also have a book
about eZ Publish, which I've worked with
and enjoyed very much.

Mastering phpMyAdmin
Mastering phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin
is usually installed quickly, out of acute necessity. You need to do
something with your database, and you can't do it via telnet or SSH or
anything else, so you download the latest version, FTP it up, and away
you go. More often than not, the install is forgotten about as soon
as your need is over.
The downside of this is that you're not getting nearly the value
you should out of a phpMyAdmin install. Most people work with
phpMyAdmin superficially and in very narrow usage corridors —
like kids walking barefoot on a painted line through a very large
parking lot. There's so much about the app that you don't know.
Enter this book: "Mastering
phpMyAdmin for Effective MySQL Management." This is the first
book I know of solely on phpMyAdmin (though a lot of MySQL books cover
it briefly in an appendix or something). It was released by Packt Publishing a few weeks
ago.
It's a departure from a lot of tech books in that (1) it's short
and sweet (just under 200 pages — not nearly the 600-page
monolith some of these things become), and (2) it seems
more...conversational. Concepts are explained in plain English. I
normally hate that cliche, but it fits here. I got a sense of simply
having a casual conversation with a fellow geek.
I read it over the course of a week, putting in a chapter or two
each night. I learned something new in every chapter, and I'd
implement them in my phpMyAdmin install right after reading the
chapter. By the end of the book, I'm left with a superb phpMyAdmin
install that does a thousand times more than I've ever accomplished
with the app before.
There's a lot of phpMyAdmin functionality under the hood that
you've likely never seen. For instance, you can set it up to enforce
relational integrity in your database. This is just good database
design, but it also enriches the interface considerably. Foreign key
fields now become drop-down lists to the foreign table with a
selection of entries. You can print a PDF summary document with
descriptions of all tables and columns and an entity relationship
diagram showing field relationships. Bet you haven't seen that trick
before.

I suddenly have a sense of liberation with phpMyAdmin. We all hate
writing admin interfaces, especially for one-off apps we do in a
hurry. Thankfully, phpMyAdmin can support an enormous amount of
administration chores in an interface not nearly as utilitarian as the
default one you get on install. It won't work for administering the
data of every app you right, but I bet it will handle a lot of
them.
I can now see writing apps and doing things that I stayed away from
before just because I didn't want to write all the data entry and
database admin scripts that easily dominate the work required to put
these things together. Instead, I can concentrate on the fun of the
front-end pages, while phpMyAdmin sucks up all the back-end work.
The book also includes some good information about PHP and MySQL in
general. On page 86, in the chapter on importing data, there's a
solid little discussion about PHP file upload and execution limits
that trumps anything I've read before. I'm a better developer for
having read these four paragraphs about the "upload_max_filesize,"
"memory_limit," and "post_max_filesize" parameters.
As for MySQL, did you know about InnoDB tables? This is a table
format that builds referential integrity into MySQL — something
the database has been missing for so long. I'll admit to being
utterly ignorant about this feature until this point.
There's a chapter at the end of the book about MIME-based
transformations that summarizes the general level of apathy about this
app. I can't believe I haven't run across a discussion about this
feature before —
You may have known on the periphery that you could store files
directly into a MySQL database using a BLOB column. But did you know
that phpMyAdmin will support this with a file upload field in the
interface, so your users can upload files directly? Or that you can
sent a MIME Transformation on that field to display a thumbnailed view
of stored images in the row when browsing the database? And that you
can link that thumbnail to the full-size version or the image, pulled
directly from the field? I'll bet the percentage of phpMyAdmin users
who know that trick is in the single digits.

So, good book. If you find yourself writing a lot of throwaway
admin interfaces and hating every minute of it, the $30 cover price
for this text is probably looking mighty attractive right
now.
