Checking Data from multiple database and multiple table using php

Question

I am trying to make a code that checks data from multiple databases having the similar table. so I made an array of databases and table in which I want to check the data is present or not as given below

$DatabaseDetails=array(
    array('DatabaseName'=>'database1','TableName'=>'table1'),
    array('DatabaseName'=>'database2','TableName'=>'table2'),
    array('DatabaseName'=>'database3','TableName'=>'table3')
);

Then I tried some code that if it does not find the data in 1st database it move to second one and so on until it find the data else "print no data in database" but i didn't get the expected result. I am new to php so have not much idea. So any help is highly appreciated and Thank you in advance. My code is given below.

<?php

class FindData{
    public $DatabaseDetails=array(
        array('DatabaseName'=>'database1','TableName'=>'table1'),
        array('DatabaseName'=>'database2','TableName'=>'table2'),
        array('DatabaseName'=>'database3','TableName'=>'table3')
    );

    public function SqlData(){
        $i=0;
        $count=count($this->DatabaseDetails);
        $email="ileee@example.com";
        $con=mysqli_connect('localhost','root','',$this->DatabaseDetails[$i]['DatabaseName']);
        $sql="select * from ".$this->DatabaseDetails[$i]['TableName']." where email='".$email."'"
        ;
        $run=$this->Data(mysqli_query($con,$sql));
        if(strpos($run,'No data')!==false){
            $i+=1;
        }else{
            echo $run;
        }
    }

    public function Data($run){
        if($run){
            $num=mysqli_num_rows($run);
            if($num>=1){
                return "Data is in presented"; 
            }else{
                return "No data";
            }
        }
    }

}
$obj=new FindData();
$obj->SqlData(); 

?>

I solved the issue. Thanks, everyone, for all the help and suggestions. Below is my code:

<?php
class FindData{
    public $DatabaseDetails=array(
        array('DatabaseName'=>'database1','TableName'=>'table1'),
        array('DatabaseName'=>'database2','TableName'=>'table2'),
        array('DatabaseName'=>'database3','TableName'=>'table3')
    );

    public function SqlData(){      
        $email="patelbhai16@gmail.com";
        $count=count($this->DatabaseDetails);
        $i=0;
        foreach($this->DatabaseDetails as $key =>$value){
            $con=mysqli_connect('localhost','root','',$value['DatabaseName']);
            if($con){
                $sql="select * from ".$value['TableName']." where email='".$email."'";
                $run=$this->Data(mysqli_query($con,$sql));
                if(strpos($run,'No data')!==false){
                    $i++;
                    if($i==$count){
                        if(strpos($run,'No data')!==false){
                            echo "No data";
                        }
                    }
                }else{
                    echo $run;
                    break;
                }
            }
        }       

    }

    public function Data($run){
        if($run){
            $num=mysqli_num_rows($run);
            if($num>=1){
                return "Data is in presented"; 
            }else{
                return "No data";
            }
        }
    }

}
$obj=new FindData();
$obj->SqlData(); 
?>

You are not looping over the databases

public function SqlData(){
    $i=0;
    $count=count($this->DatabaseDetails);
    $email="ileee@example.com";
    $con=mysqli_connect('localhost','root','',$this->DatabaseDetails[$i]['DatabaseName']);
    $sql="select * from ".$this->DatabaseDetails[$i]['TableName']." where email='".$email."'"
    ;
    $run=$this->Data(mysqli_query($con,$sql));
    if(strpos($run,'No data')!==false){
        $i+=1;
    }else{
        echo $run;
    }
}

Even if you call this function multiple times externally, you are not changing the $i value. So you only use the $i=0 database.

You try to update it here

if(strpos($run,'No data')!==false){
    $i+=1;
}

But because there is no loop in the method, and it's a local value. There is either no iteration done or the value of $i is reset to 0 on each call to the method. As I said it's unclear if the method is called once or multiple times to provide the iteration. In either case it doesn't matter.

So there are 3 ways to fix this.

• add a loop inside the method
• pass in the value of $i as an argument (multiple external calls)
• pass in the value of $i as an argument (recursive call)

Make sense.
