This gets a property from the database. This is useful when you have, for example, a foreign keyed table and you want to get a the id of a particular row.
For example, we might have a logs table which stores a log about something and on that table there is a type_id column.
So you may want to do a query which searches for particular log type. Rather than hard coding an ID get_db_property_id
will return you the id you require.
Example Usage In this example we're looking for type 'printed', on the table log_types
get_db_property_id('Printed', 'log_types');
This would be the same as running SELECT id FROM log_types WHERE name = 'Printed'
Returns (id of row)
You can also specify the name of the column you wish to query should it not be 'name'. Name is the default.
For example
get_db_property_id('Printed', 'log_types', 'typeName');
This would be the same as running SELECT id FROM log_types WHERE typeName = 'Printed'
