Corma
Corma is a high-performance, convention-based ORM based on Doctrine DBAL.
Corma is great because:
- No complex and difficult to verify annotations or configuration files
- Promotes consistent code organization
- Loads and saves one-to-one, one-to-many, and many-to-many relationships with a method call
- Can save multiple objects in a single query (using an upsert)
- Makes it easy to cache and avoid database queries
- Supports soft deletes
- Makes it easy to handle transactions in a Unit of Work
- Highly customizable
Corma doesn't:
- Autoload or lazy load relationships by default
- Do migrations or code generation
Works in MySql and PostgreSQL.
Install via Composer
Via the command line:
composer.phar require thewunder/corma ~3.0
Or add the following to the require section your composer.json:
"thewunder/corma": "~3.0"
For PHP version > 5.5 < 7.1 use Corma version ~2.0
Basic Usage
Create a DataObject
namespace YourNamespace\Dataobjects;
class YourDataObject {
protected $id;
//If the property name == column name on the table your_data_objects it will be saved
protected $myColumn;
//Getters and setters..
}
And a Repository (optional)
namespace YourNamespace\Dataobjects\Repository;
class YourDataObjectRepository extends ObjectRepository {
//Override default behavior and add custom methods...
}
Create the orm and use it
$db = DriverManager::getConnection(...); //see Doctrine DBAL docs
$orm = ObjectMapper::withDefaults($db);
$object = $orm->create(YourDataObject::class);
//Call setters...
$orm->save($object);
//Call more setters...
$orm->save($object);
//Call more setters on $object...
$objects = [$object];
$newObject = $orm->create(YourDataObject::class);
//call setters on $newObject..
$objects[] = $newObject;
$orm->saveAll($objects);
//find existing object by id
$existingObject = $orm->find(YourDataObject::class, 5);
//find existing objects with myColumn >= 42 AND otherColumn = 1
$existingObjects = $orm->findBy(YourDataObject::class, ['myColumn >='=>42, 'otherColumn'=>1], ['sortColumn'=>'ASC']);
//load relationships
$orm->loadOne($existingObjects, OtherObject::class, 'otherObjectId');
$orm->loadMany($existingObjects, AnotherObject::class, 'yourObjectId');
$orm->loadManyToMany($existingObjects, DifferentObject::class, 'link_table');
//delete those
$orm->deleteAll($existingObjects);
