Custom table name for a model in laminas - laminas

Question

I've started learning laminas by reading it's documentation (Album model and table). I have a product model and I want to fetch the records but the problem is that the name of my table is tbl_product and I get this error:
Statement could not be executed (42S02 - 1146 - Table
'project.product' doesn't exist)
Where can I define the table name?

Answer 1

Supposing that by "reading it's documentation" you are talking about Laminas' tutorial, then the answer can be found under the the Database and Models section
When you define a new model, you must update the module's configuration, specifying where the application will find the model's factory and gateway:
// Add this method:
public function getServiceConfig()
{
return [
'factories' => [
Model\AlbumTable::class => function($container) {
$tableGateway = $container->get(Model\AlbumTableGateway::class);
return new Model\AlbumTable($tableGateway);
},
Model\AlbumTableGateway::class => function ($container) {
$dbAdapter = $container->get(AdapterInterface::class);
$resultSetPrototype = new ResultSet();
$resultSetPrototype->setArrayObjectPrototype(new Model\Album());
return new TableGateway('album', $dbAdapter, null, $resultSetPrototype);
},
],
];
}
The class that contains the db table information is TableGateway, which constructor is:
public function __construct(
$table,
AdapterInterface $adapter,
$features = null,
?ResultSetInterface $resultSetPrototype = null,
?Sql $sql = null
)
The first parameter is the table's name.
Hence, in your configuration, you need something like:
Model\ProductTable::class => function($container) {
$tableGateway = $container->get(Model\ProductTableGateway::class);
return new Model\ProductTable($tableGateway);
},
Model\ProductTableGateway::class => function ($container) {
$dbAdapter = $container->get(AdapterInterface::class);
$resultSetPrototype = new ResultSet();
$resultSetPrototype->setArrayObjectPrototype(new Model\Product());
return new TableGateway('tbl_product', $dbAdapter, null, $resultSetPrototype);
},
