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. [h4]For download or recent update, look at [url=http://goo.gl/T5gmI]GasORM @ GitHub[/url]. This library also [url=http://getsparks.org/packages/Gas-ORM/versions/HEAD/show]available at Sparks[/url].[/h4]

[h3]Requirements[/h3]

1. PHP v.5.2.x
2. CodeIgniter v.2.x.x

[h3]Features[/h3]

1. Supported databases : cubrid, mssql, mysql, oci8, odbc, postgre, sqlite, sqlsrv.
2. Support multiple database connection.
3. Multiple relationship (has_one, has_many, belongs_to, has_and_belongs_to) with custom relationship setting (through, foreign_key, foreign_table)
4. Various finder method (can chained with most of CI AR) and aggregates.
5. Validation and auto-mapping input collection, with minimal setup.

// WRITE (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) AND VALIDATION $new_user = new User; $new_user->fill($_POST)->save(TRUE);

// RELATIONSHIP & EAGER LOADING $some_user = Gas::factory('user')->with('wife', 'kid', 'job')->find(1)); $some_user_wife = $some_user->wife; [/code]
