How to load an sql dump using symfony - php

Question

I'm trying to make a user friendly way of testing via lime in symfony 1. I want to load a specific sql dump for each test I write (if required). The problem I face is that I don't know how to make dump loading independent of database type. Currently I'm using the shell exec() command. Here is the code :
public function loadSql()
{
$this->diag("Loading dump...");
if ($this->_sql_is_set)
{
if (file_exists($this->_getSqlPath()))
{
$this->_emptyDataBase();
$options = $this->_connection_manager->connection()->getOptions();
$dsn_parts = $this->_connection_manager->parsePdoDsn($options['dsn']);
exec("mysql -u{$options['username']} -p{$options['password']} {$dsn_parts['dbname']} < {$this->_getSqlPath()}");
return $this;
}
else
{
$this->error("Nothing to load : sql file was not found in ".$this->_getDataDir());
exit;
}
}
else
{
$this->error("Nothing to load : sql dump was not set");
exit;
}
}
$this->_connection_manager is an instance of Doctrine_Manager. Any help will with that?

Try with something like that:
public function loadSqlFiles(sfEvent $event)
{
$task = $event->getSubject();
$taskName = $task->getName();
if ($taskName == 'insert-sql') {
$conn = Doctrine_Manager::connection();
$filesPath = sfConfig::get('sf_data_dir') . '/sql/full-data';
// get all files
$files = sfFinder::type('file')->sort_by_name()->name('*.sql')->in($filesPath);
foreach ($files as $file) {
$task->logSection('custom-sql', sprintf('Inserting custom sql file (%s)', $file));
$res = $conn->getDbh()->exec(file_get_contents($file));
}
}
}
