GasORM

Category:Libraries | Category:Libraries::Community | Category:Library::Database A lighweight and easy-to-use ORM for CodeIgniter. Gas was built specifically for CodeIgniter app. It uses standard CI DB packages, also take anvantages of its validator class. Gas provide methods that will map your database table and its relation, into accesible object. [h3]For download or recent update, look at [url=https://github.com/toopay/CI-GasORM-Library]CI-GasORM-Library[/url][/h3] [h3]Feature[/h3]

1. Finder, including aggregates, join, etc.
2. Validation mechanism (rely on CI Form validation).
3. Write operation (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE).
4. Relationship (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many).

[h3]Convention[/h3] An example of user model : [code] class User extends Gas {

public $relations = array(
                        'has_one' => array('wife' => array()),
                        'has_many' => array('kid' => array()),
                        'has_and_belong_to' => array('job' => array()),
                    );

function _init()
{
    $this->_fields = array(
      'id'       => Gas::field('auto'),
      'name'     => Gas::field('char[40]'),
      'email'    => Gas::field('email'),
      'username' => Gas::field('char', array('callback_username_check')),
      'active'   => Gas::field('int[1]'),
    );
}

} [/code] [h3]Usage Examples[/h3] [code] $user = new User;

// Fetch record $users = $user->all(); if($user->has_result()) { foreach($users as $single_user) { var_dump($single_user->to_array()); } }

$someuser = $user->find_by_email('[email protected]', 1);

$join_user = $user->left_join_phone()->find(35);

// Write Operations (Insert, Update, Delete) $user = new User;

$user->id = $_POST['id']; $user->name = $_POST['name']; $user->email = $_POST['email']; $user->username = $_POST['username'];

if( ! $user->save(TRUE)) { var_dump($user->errors()); } else { $created_id = $user->last_id(); }

$user_update = $user->find($created_id);

if($user->has_result()) { $user_update->email = '[email protected]'; $user->save(); var_dump($user_update->errors()); }

var_dump($user->delete(1, 2, 3));

// Relationship (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many) $user1 = $user->find(1);

if($user->has_result()) { var_dump($user1->wife->to_array()); var_dump($user1->wife->delete()); }

$user1 = $user->find(1);

if($user->has_result()) { foreach($user1->kid as $kid) { var_dump($kid->to_array()); } }

// Eager Loading $user = new User;

$all_users = $user->with('wife, 'kid', 'job')->all();

if($user->has_result()) { foreach($all_users as $single_user) { echo $single_user->name.' has these details :';

    echo $single_user->name.' has one wife :';
    var_dump($single_user->wife->to_array()); 

    echo $single_user->name.' has many kids :';
    foreach($single_user->kid as $kid) 
    {
        var_dump($kid->to_array()); 
    }

    echo $single_user->name.' has several jobs :';
    foreach($single_user->job as $job) 
    {
        var_dump($job->to_array()); 
    }
}

} [/code]
