This may be obvious, but the constants for the field types are already defined in PHP, and can be found in the documentation at: http://php.net/manual/en/mysqli.constants.php
mysqli_fetch_field_direct
result->fetch_field_direct
(PHP 5)
mysqli_fetch_field_direct -- result->fetch_field_direct — Obtem meta dados para um único campo
Descrição
Estilo de procedimento:
Estilo orientado a objeto (metodo):
mixed
fetch_field_direct
( int
$fieldnr
)
mysqli_fetch_field_direct() retorna um objeto o qual contém
informações da definição de um campo do conjunto de resultados especificado. O valor de fieldnr deve estar no
intervalo entre 0 e número de campos - 1.
Valores de retorno
Retorna um objeto o qual contém informações das definições de um campo ou FALSE se não houver informações sobre o campo
especificado com fieldnr disponíveis.
| Atibuto | Descrição |
|---|---|
| name | O nome da coluna |
| orgname | Nome original da coluna se foi especificado um alias |
| table | O nome da tabela a qual este campo pertence (se não for calculada) |
| orgtable | Nome da tabela original se foi especificado um alias |
| def | O valor padrão para este campo, representado por uma string |
| max_length | O limite de tamanho para o campo no conjunto de resultados. |
| flags | Um inteiro representando bit-flags para o campo. |
| type | O tipo de dados para este campo |
| decimals | O número de casas decimais usadas (para campos integer) |
Exemplo
Exemplo #1 Estilo orientado a objeto
<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Name LIMIT 5";
if ($result = $mysqli->query($query)) {
/* Get field information for column 'SurfaceArea' */
$finfo = $result->fetch_field_direct(1);
printf("Name: %s\n", $finfo->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $finfo->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $finfo->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n", $finfo->type);
$result->close();
}
/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>
Exemplo #2 Estilo de procedimento
<?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Name LIMIT 5";
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, $query)) {
/* Get field information for column 'SurfaceArea' */
$finfo = mysqli_fetch_field_direct($result, 1);
printf("Name: %s\n", $finfo->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $finfo->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $finfo->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n", $finfo->type);
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);
?>
Os exemplos acima devem produzir a seguinte saída:
Name: SurfaceArea Table: Country max. Len: 10 Flags: 32769 Type: 4

Here's a bigger list of data types. I got this by creating every type I could and calling fetch_fields():
<?php
$mysql_data_type_hash = array(
1=>'tinyint',
2=>'smallint',
3=>'int',
4=>'float',
5=>'double',
7=>'timestamp',
8=>'bigint',
9=>'mediumint',
10=>'date',
11=>'time',
12=>'datetime',
13=>'year',
16=>'bit',
//252 is currently mapped to all text and blob types (MySQL 5.0.51a)
253=>'varchar',
254=>'char',
246=>'decimal'
);
?>

note that
"SELECT <timestamp-field>, ..."
will return the field with type 7 (timestamp) but with content like "2010-07-14 14:35:08". the point being it is a string.
"SELECT <timestamp-field> + 0, ..."
returns a type 5 (double) but while a number, is not seconds since epoch, but a number in MySQL's "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" format, in this example:
20100714143508
(PHP 5.2.12)

Beware of the fact that the ->def property NEVER gets filled with the correct default field value, so it's totally USELESS.
This happens NOT for a bug in php (so don't go filling in a bug report), but happens BY DESIGN, since the MySQL C API call doesn't fill in this value, unless you call the mysql_list_fields() function, which Php doesn't.
See here for reference.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/c-api-datatypes.html
Also, be aware that if you're using a query which contains subqueries, the primary key/autoincrement flags do NOT get passed along, even if the field you're looking at is the primary autoincrement key of the master table:
SELECT * from (SELECT id from areas) AS subareas
and you'll find primary key and autoinc flags off on id field, even if id was the primary autoinc key of areas table.
This also is by design, i think, since it's supposed that if we're using a subquery then the primary key/autoinc stuff might have no sense at all, since in the result set we can compose fileds from many different tables.
Hoping this is useful, bye!

I wrote a simple class to get info about fields.
Try it!
<?php
class MysqlFieldsInfo implements Iterator
{
private $result;
private $position;
private $row;
function __construct($result){
$this->result = $result;
$this->position = 0;
$this->rewind(); // W $results wewnętrzny wskaźnik może być przesunięty więc powracamy do początku
}
public function current(){
return $this->row;
}
public function next(){
$this->position++;
$this->row = $this->result->fetch_field();
}
public function valid(){
return (boolean) $this->row;
}
public function key(){
return $this->position;
}
public function rewind(){
$this->position = 0;
$this->result->field_seek(0);
$this->next();
}
// This function show data in table
public function export(){
echo '<table id="db_table_info">';
echo '<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Orgname</th>
<th>Table</th>
<th>Orgtable</th>
<th>Def</th>
<th>Max_length</th>
<th>Length</th>
<th>Charsetnr</th>
<th>Flags</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Decimals</th>
</tr>';
while($this->valid()){
echo '<tr>';
printf("\n\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->name);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->orgname);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->orgtable);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->def);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->max_length);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->length);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->charsetnr);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->flags);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->type);
printf("\t<td>%s</td>\n", $this->current()->decimals);
echo '</tr>';
$this->next();
}
echo '</table>';
}
}
?>

According to
dev.mysql.com/sources/doxygen/mysql-5.1/mysql__com_8h-source.html
the flag bits are:
NOT_NULL_FLAG 1 /* Field can't be NULL */
PRI_KEY_FLAG 2 /* Field is part of a primary key */
UNIQUE_KEY_FLAG 4 /* Field is part of a unique key */
MULTIPLE_KEY_FLAG 8 /* Field is part of a key */
BLOB_FLAG 16 /* Field is a blob */
UNSIGNED_FLAG 32 /* Field is unsigned */
ZEROFILL_FLAG 64 /* Field is zerofill */
BINARY_FLAG 128 /* Field is binary */
ENUM_FLAG 256 /* field is an enum */
AUTO_INCREMENT_FLAG 512 /* field is a autoincrement field */
TIMESTAMP_FLAG 1024 /* Field is a timestamp */

Here are some Numbers of Datatypes. I searched for it but i didn't find a list, where the datatypes of the numbers are listed.
so first I can give this:
3 - Int
10 - Date
246 - Decimal
252 - text
253 - VarChar
254 - Boolean
