Command represents a SQL statement to be executed against a database.

A command object is usually created by calling yii\db\Connection::createCommand(). The SQL statement it represents can be set via the $sql property.

To execute a non-query SQL (such as INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE), call execute(). To execute a SQL statement that returns a result data set (such as SELECT), use queryAll(), queryOne(), queryColumn(), queryScalar(), or query().

For example,

$users = $connection->createCommand('SELECT * FROM user')->queryAll();

Command supports SQL statement preparation and parameter binding. Call bindValue() to bind a value to a SQL parameter; Call bindParam() to bind a PHP variable to a SQL parameter. When binding a parameter, the SQL statement is automatically prepared. You may also call prepare() explicitly to prepare a SQL statement.

Command also supports building SQL statements by providing methods such as insert(), update(), etc. For example, the following code will create and execute an INSERT SQL statement:

$connection->createCommand()->insert('user', [
    'name' => 'Sam',
    'age' => 30,
])->execute();

To build SELECT SQL statements, please use yii\db\Query instead.

For more details and usage information on Command, see the guide article on Database Access Objects.
