README

This library allows developers to treat ExpressionEngine Channel Entries as objects within their Addons.

The Problems This Solve

There are two main points this library covers; canonical keys and data types. With the first party Member Model within ExpressionEngine, you're dealing with mostly raw data delivered within a raw format. Specifically, custom fields are delivered in their raw database key and the raw value.

This can complicate development so this library removes that concern.

Requirements

• ExpressionEngine >= 5.5
• PHP >= 7.1

Installation

Add ee-objects/entries as a requirement to your composer.json:

$ composer require ee-objects/entries

Implementation

use EeObjects\Channels\Entries\Entry;

$entry = ee('ee_objects:ChannelEntryService')->getEntry(5079);
if ($entry instanceof Entry) {
    $my_custom_filed = $entry->get('my_custom_filed');

    $entry->set('my_custom_filed', 'Some Value');
    $entry->save();

    $entry->delete();
}
