README

A Propel ORM Behavior that provides you with Providers for Query/Model/Peer Objects.

Requirements

• Propel > 1.6.0

Install

Add this behavior to your project via your composer.json file

"require": {
    "emiliomg/propel-provider-behavior": "~1.0"
}

Or simply run composer require emiliomg/propel-provider-behavior.

Then, add the following configuration to your build.properties:

propel.behavior.providerBase.behavior = vendor.emiliomg.propel-provider-behavior.src.ProviderBaseBehavior.ProviderBaseBehavior
propel.behavior.providerFassade.behavior = vendor.emiliomg.propel-provider-behavior.src.ProviderFassadeBehavior.ProviderFassadeBehavior
propel.behavior.default = providerBase, providerFassade

The propel.behavior.default makes sure every one of your models uses this behavior.

Finally, rebuild your models. The provider classes will be generated alongside you Models and Query-Classes.

Configuration

You can use the propel.behavior.provider.cachefile = true switch. This will generate a providerCache.json file inside the outputDir which contains a list of all generated Providers. This can be useful, e.g. for automatically generating factories (which the Symfony2 Bundle does for you automatically).

Generated code

The generated provider code is quite simple. We use a simple schema.xml like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<database name="bookstore" defaultIdMethod="native" namespace="Foo\Bar\Model">
    <table name="Author" idMethod="native">
        <column name="id" type="INTEGER" primaryKey="true" autoIncrement="true" required="true"/>
        <column name="name" type="VARCHAR" size="255" required="false"/>
        <vendor type="mysql">
            <parameter name="Engine" value="InnoDB"/>
        </vendor>
    </table>
</database>

A sample output for a ficional Author-Model then looks like this:

BaseAuthorProvider

<?php

namespace Foo\Bar\Model\om;

use \Propel;
use Foo\Bar\Model\Author;
use Foo\Bar\Model\AuthorPeer;
use Foo\Bar\Model\AuthorQuery;

/**
 * This is a provider base class for the 'Author' table.
 * It provides query, model, peer and connection instances.
 * You can use Dependency Injection to inject this provider into services who need
 * 'Author'-queries or -models and fetch them via this provider.
 * There is no need to access the models or queries directly, since this provider can be mocked.
 */
abstract class BaseAuthorProvider
{
    /**
     * Returns a new query instance.
     *
     * @param     string $modelAlias The alias of a model in the query
     * @param   AuthorQuery|Criteria $criteria Optional Criteria to build the query from
     *
     * @return AuthorQuery
     */
    public function getQuery($modelAlias = null, $criteria = null)
    {
        $query = AuthorQuery::create($modelAlias, $criteria);

        return $query;
    }

    /**
     * Returns a new Model instance.
     *
     * @return Author
     */
    public function getModel()
    {
        $model = new Author();

        return $model;
    }

    /**
     * Returns a new Peer Instance;
     *
     * @return AuthorPeer
     */
    public function getPeer()
    {
        $peer = new AuthorPeer();

        return $peer;
    }

    /**
     * Returns the connection for this table.
     *
     * @return \PropelPDO
     */
    public function getConnection()
    {
        $peer = $this->getPeer();
        $connection = Propel::getConnection($peer::DATABASE_NAME);

        return $connection;
    }

}

AuthorProvider

The behaviors also generate fassade classes, which will be generated if and only if there is no fassade class already present. A fassade class looks like this:

<?php

namespace Foo\Bar\Model;

use Foo\Bar\Model\om\BaseAuthorProvider;

/**
 * This is a provider fassade class for the 'Author' table.
 * It provides query, model, peer and connection instances.
 * You can use Dependency Injection to inject this provider into services who need
 * 'Author'-queries or -models and fetch them via this provider.
 * There is no need to access the models or queries directly, since this provider can be mocked.
 *
 * You should add additional methods to this class to meet the
 * application requirements.  This class will only be generated as
 * long as it does not already exist in the output directory.
