select¶
This object generates an SQL-select statement to select records from the database.
Some records are hidden or timed by start- and end-times. This is
automatically added to the SQL-select by looking for "enablefields"
in the $GLOBALS['TCA'].
Warning
Do not use GET or POST data like GPvar directly with this object! Avoid SQL injections! Don't trust any external data! Secure any unknown data, for example with intval.

}
uidInList¶
Property
uidInList
Data type
list of record_ids / stdWrap
Description
Comma-separated list of record uids from the according database table.
For example when the select function works on the table tt_content, then
this will be uids of tt_content records.
Note: this is a special keyword and replaced with the id of the
current record.
Example
select.uidInList = 1,2,3
select.uidInList = this
pidInList¶
Property
pidInList
Data type
list of page_ids / stdWrap
Description
Comma-separated list of pids of the record. This will be page_ids. For example when the select function works on the table tt_content, then this will be pids of tt_content records, the parent pages of these records.
Pages in the list, which are not visible for the website user, are automatically removed from the list. Thereby no records from hidden, timed or access-protected pages will be selected! Nor will be records from recyclers.
Special keyword: "this" is replaced with the id of the current page.
Special keyword: "root" allows to select records from the root-page level (records with pid=0, e.g. useful for the table "sys_category" and others).
Special value: "-1" allows to select versioned records in workspaces directly.
Example
Fetch related sys_category records stored in the MM intermediate table:
10 = CONTENT
10 {
table = sys_category
select {
pidInList = root,-1
selectFields = sys_category.*
join = sys_category_record_mm ON sys_category_record_mm.uid_local = sys_category.uid
where.data = field:_ORIG_uid // field:uid
where.intval = 1
where.wrap = sys_category_record_mm.uid_foreign=|
orderBy = sys_category_record_mm.sorting_foreign
languageField = 0 # disable translation handling of sys_category
}
}
Default
this
recursive¶
orderBy¶
Property
orderBy
Data type
SQL-orderBy / stdWrap
Description
ORDER BY clause without the words "ORDER BY".
Example
orderBy = sorting, title
groupBy¶
Property
groupBy
Data type
SQL-groupBy / stdWrap
Description
GROUP BY clause without the words "GROUP BY".
Example
groupBy = CType
max¶
begin¶
where¶
Property
where
Data type
SQL-where / stdWrap
Description
WHERE clause without the word "WHERE".
Example
where = (title LIKE '%SOMETHING%' AND NOT doktype)
languageField¶
includeRecordsWithoutDefaultTranslation¶
Property
includeRecordsWithoutDefaultTranslation
Description
If content language overlay is activated and the option languageField is not disabled,
includeRecordsWithoutDefaultTranslation allows to additionally fetch records,
which do not have a parent in the default language.
Default
0
selectFields¶
Property
selectFields
Description
List of fields to select, or count(*).
If the records need to be localized, please include the relevant localization-fields (uid, pid, languageField and transOrigPointerField). Otherwise the TYPO3 internal localization will not succeed.
Default
*
join, leftjoin, rightjoin¶
markers¶
Property
markers
Data type
(array of markers)
Description
The markers defined in this section can be used, wrapped in the usual ###markername### way, in any other property of select. Each value is properly escaped and quoted to prevent SQL injection problems. This provides a way to safely use external data (e.g. database fields, GET/POST parameters) in a query.
Available sub-properties:
<markername>.value: (value)
Sets the value directly.
<markername>.commaSeparatedList: (boolean)
If set, the value is interpreted as a comma-separated list of values. Each value in the list is individually escaped and quoted.
(stdWrap properties ...)
All stdWrap properties can be used for each markername.
Example
page.60 = CONTENT page.60 { table = tt_content select { pidInList = 73 where = header != ###whatever### orderBy = ###sortfield### markers { whatever.data = GP:first sortfield.value = sor sortfield.wrap = |ting } } }This example selects all records from table tt_content, which are on page 73 and which don't have the header set to the value provided by the Get/Post variable "first", ordered by the content of the column "sorting".
