I'm looking for a PHP script that will allow me to easily manage 'MySql' tables. By managing I mean not their creation but the possibility of adding new records, modifying and deleting them.
It must be possible to specify for each user which tables he will have access to and with which modalities (insertion only, modification only, etc.).
For each user I will also have to specify whether he will be able to see all or some of the columns in the table and with which permissions.
Also I'll need to know who did what, a sort of global change LOG.
My idea was to have a back-end in which I specified the users and how to access the various tables/columns and a front-end for the users.
In the front-end users will be able to add/modify/delete records and data they are allowed and the ability to filter and/or sort the various records.
I know I could use some PHP frameworks or rely on CMS but I have to write a lot of code by hand and it seems hardly credible that such a product is not already available.
Does anyone know if there is something like this?
I had tried starting with PHP frameworks but implementing everything from scratch stopped me.
I expect there is already something available.
Thanks.
Davide.

I am looking for a solution that lets me interconnect several databases.
But let me explain it with the exact example:
I have a main domain (front page for public clients) and four sub-domains (development, management, client, ...) in the clients webhosting.
Each domain has its own database and runs different software (WordPress, dolibarr, sysPass, our own software), but all databases are stored on the same mySQL server.
If a CRUD is made, I want that the other databases also "do" something with that data.
Basically, automation.
For example - a user on development.subdomain.xyz sets a project task to "finished".
When the UPDATE is done to the "development" database, I want an INSERT with parts of that data into the "management" database and an UPDATE towards the "client" database.
I could write up some script that connects to all four databases and does the operations necessary.
But that feels a little hard to maintain if multiple users shall have access to this "logic" system?
I could also use the provided API's and process the data (again in a script form rather than implementing a whole UI).
That feels like adding an unnecessary, extra security concern and again hard to maintain?
If I want to add additional functionality - like sending an Email as well, that would even make it harder for non-coders to interact.
So I found several of these "Low-Code Business Process Management" tools and now I'm at a loss.
Is that what I'm looking for? Can you throw me some tags, keywords or links to guide my search for possible solutions?
I do not even know how to call such a system or search for it - which stops me from progressing.
Thank you for all tips :)
I have an existing Laravel application with various functions, controllers, authentication, middleware, CRUD, admin functionality, and more. I want to be able to deploy this application onto some hosting and have others view all of the pages, but I do not want them to be able to edit or create values in the database. So, for example, while I have CRUD for all of the resources, I want them to be able to read all of the resources but not edit, create, or delete anything. I also want them to not have to register/login, but I know how to fix that.
I have tried LOCK TABLE [tablename] READ in MySQL, but that does not seem to have done anything. Currently, my only other idea would be to go through and set ifs checking if the user is authenticated to save database interactions, but this would be a little laborious.
Is there any feasible or simpler way of doing this? Thanks for any help.
I want to know, is there a log that saves all the changes made by users to a database just like in git where all the commits can be viewed by each user so that if any error occur we know who did it.If there is one how to get it? or how to create one that will do it?
Problem I'm facing is that a table's data has been altered by one of the developers but there is no way to find when and who did it and also I am struggling to find all the changes that has been done to the table.
Databases typically do not provide auditing as standard. I typically implement it within my application. However, for a faster result, there are some plugins for mySQL which you could try.
I am developing a web application in which a user can Create a table in data base. I am thinking on taking the attribute names and table description from user and put them into SQL query and execute it. But the drawback is that if this application is installed somewhere else all the db connection parameters have to be changed secondly it will be hard coded. Or is this the approach in software industry?
Another approach I can think of is taking all the information about creating a new table from user and inserting them into one table and have some kind of trigger on this table which creates a new table everytime when insertion is performed into the first table.What would be the SQL Script for such thing if my approach is correct?
I am using SPRING - MVC, Hibernate, MySQL, REST web service
Please correct me if I am thinking in wrong direction. TO be honest I am not clear on how I am going to do this.
Thanks
This is risky, since a database schema with a vague and ever-expanding schema will become difficult to manage. Your problem isn't how to manage the credentials, which you would have to handle securely whether users were creating tables or not. Your problem is why it seems necessary for users to create tables.
Are you building an interface to manage arbitrary databases? Maybe phpmyadmin would give your users everything they need.
Or are you doing something not quite so general purpose and open ended? Perhaps with a sufficiently rich table design, you can give the users what they want without requiring that they build their own tables. What information do users have to put in a table that it looks like they need to build their own?
If you are more specific with your objectives, we could be more helpful.
I recently inherited a website and they have a simple back-end area which was created using phpmaker. The back-end displays various MYSQL database tables.
There are two tables which hold registration information related to promotions/contests the company runs online. The client wants to begin archiving the registration data monthly, but still have the data accessible for future export or review.
So, can anyone tell me what the best approach would be to achieve this? I read about partitioning and Maatkit, but I'm not sure which - if either - would be a smart choice.
I would prefer to keep the table names the same because the table name is referenced in several instances within the PHP code running the promo/contest applications. I would also like for everything to be 'automatic' or at least executed at the click of a button; though I realize that might not be completely realistic.
I should note that I do not have the phpmaker project file and have been unable to obtain it.
Any help on this matter would be a great help.
MK-Archiver This is a good way to archive live mysql database tables
What MK- Archiver does is to archive rows from a table to another table and/or a file
