I know, there's the method $this->dbutil->database_exists ('name');. The problem is when you need to know if the default database (the one defined at config/database.php) exists. For example, you're creating an installation script. I haven't find a nice way to know which database are configured at configuration file.
Finally I've found this way:
Code:
# Comprueba si la base de datos está creada.
include APPPATH.'config/database.php'; # Niños: ¡NO hagáis esto en casa!
$this->load->dbutil ();
$this->BDDCreada = $this->dbutil->database_exists ($db['Redsoc']['database']);
But I think that "include" isn't a good solution. I think that add a way to access to the $db array items using a CI function (for example, from dbutil) is much better. For example, the previous code may looks like next one:
Code:
# Comprueba si la base de datos está creada.
$this->load->dbutil ();
$db = $this->dbutil->db ('Redsoc');
$this->BDDCreada = $this->dbutil->database_exists ($db['database']);
Also access to the $active_group variable would be great (i.e. $this->dbutil->active_group ()).
Just as suggestion.
