pg_client_encoding — Gets the client encoding
PostgreSQL supports automatic character set conversion between server and client for certain character sets. pg_client_encoding() returns the client encoding as a string. The returned string will be one of the standard PostgreSQL encoding identifiers.
Note:
This function requires PostgreSQL 7.0 or higher. If libpq is compiled without multibyte encoding support, pg_client_encoding() always returns
SQL_ASCII
. Supported encoding depends on PostgreSQL version. Refer to the PostgreSQL Documentation supported encodings.The function used to be called pg_clientencoding().
connection
An PgSql\Connection instance.
When connection
is null
, the default connection is used.
The default connection is the last connection made by pg_connect()
or pg_pconnect().
As of PHP 8.1.0, using the default connection is deprecated.
The client encoding.
Version | Description |

Example #1 pg_client_encoding() example
<?php
// Assume $conn is a connection to a ISO-8859-1 database
$encoding = pg_client_encoding($conn);
echo "Client encoding is: ", $encoding, "\n";
?>
The above example will output:
Client encoding is: ISO-8859-1
