Using the Propel ORM
A one day course introducing the Propel Object Relational Mapping framework
Propel is an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) framework for PHP5. It allows you to access your database using a set of objects, providing a simple API for storing and retrieving data.
It removes the need for SQL for most tasks, and can result in cleaner, more readable code.This workshop will cover:
- Defining a database with a schema.xml file
- Generating a schema file from an existing database
- Accessing data: basic retreival
- Accessing data: more complex queries using Criteria
- Updating and deleting data
- Performance considerations
