Good PHP ORM Library?

Is there a good object-relational-mapping library for PHP?

I know of PDO/ADO, but they seem to only provide abstraction of differences between database vendors not an actual mapping between the domain model and the relational model. I’m looking for a PHP library that functions similarly to the way Hibernate does for Java and NHibernate does for .NET.

I work on miniOrm. Just a mini ORM, for using Object Model & MySQL Abstraction Layer as simply as possible. Hope it may help you : http://jelnivo.fr/miniOrm/

NotORM

include "NotORM.php";
 $pdo = new PDO("mysql:dbname=software");
 $db = new NotORM($pdo);
 $applications = $db->application()
->select("id, title")
->where("web LIKE ?", "http://%")
->order("title")
->limit(10)
;
foreach ($applications as $id => $application) {
echo "$application[title]\n";
}

MicroMVC has a 13 KB ORM that only relies on a 8 KB database class. It also returns all results as ORM objects themselves and uses late static binding to avoid embedding information about the current object’s table and meta data into each object. This results in the cheapest ORM overhead there is.

It works with MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.

Have a look at the LEAP ORM for Kohana. It works with a bunch of databases, including DB2, Drizzle, Firebird, MariaDB, SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. With a simple autoload function, it can work with almost any PHP framework. The source code is on GitHub at https://github.com/spadefoot/kohana-orm-leap. You can checkout LEAP’s tutorials online.

The ORM library works with non-integer primary keys and composite keys. Connections are managed via a database connection pool and it works with raw SQL queries. The ORM even has a query builder that makes building SQL statements super simple.

Agile Toolkit has its own unique implementation of ORM/ActiveRecord and dynamic SQL.

Introduction: http://agiletoolkit.org/intro/1

Syntax (Active Record):

$emp=$this->add('Model_Employee');
$emp['name']='John';
$emp['salary']=500;
$emp->save();

Syntax (Dynamic SQL):

$result = $emp->count()->where('salary','>',400)->getOne();

While Dynamic SQL and Active Record/ORM is usable directly, Agile Toolkit further integrates them with User Interface and jQuery UI. This is similar to JSF but written in pure PHP.

$this->add('CRUD')->setModel('Employee');

This will display AJAXified CRUD with for Employee model.

You should check out Idiorm and Paris.

Brazilian ORM: http://www.hufersil.com.br/lumine. It works with PHP 5.2+. In my opinion, it is the best choice for Portuguese and Brazilian people, because it has easy-to-understand documentation and a lot of examples for download.

I have had great experiences with Idiorm and Paris. Idiorm is a small, simple ORM library. Paris is an equally simple Active Record implementation built on Idiorm. It’s for PHP 5.2+ with PDO. It’s perfect if you want something simple that you can just drop into an existing application.

If you are looking for an ORM that implements the Data Mapper paradigm rather than Active Record specifically, then I would strongly suggest that you take a look at GacelaPHP.

Gacela features:

  • Data mapper
  • Foreign key mapping
  • Association mapping
  • Dependent mapping
  • Concrete table inheritance
  • Query object
  • Metadata mapping
  • Lazy & eager loading
  • Full Memcached support

Other ORM solutions are too bloated or have burdensome limitations when developing anything remotely complicated. Gacela resolves the limitations of the active record approach by implementing the Data Mapper Pattern while keeping bloat to a minimum by using PDO for all interactions with the database and Memcached.

Another great open source PHP ORM that we use is PHPSmartDb. It is stable and makes your code more secure and clean. The database functionality within it is hands down the easiest I have ever used with PHP 5.3.

Try PdoMap. Wikipedia claims that is inspired by Hibernate. Since I never used Hibernate, I cannot judge :), but I would say from my experience that is good and fast ORM that is easy to implement, with a less steep learning curve that other ORMs.

Looked at Syrius ORM. It’s a new ORM, the project was in a development stage, but in the next mouth it will be released in a 1.0 version.

A really good simple ORM is MyActiveRecord. MyActiveRecord documentation. I have been using it a lot and can say it’s very simple and well tested.

Look at http://code.google.com/p/lworm/ . It is a really simple, but powerful, lightweight ORM system for PHP. You can also easily extend it, if you want.

Axon ORM is part of the Fat-Free Framework – it features an on-the-fly mapper. No code generators. No stupid XML/YAML configuration files. It reads the database schema directly from the backend, so in most CRUD operations you don’t even have to extend a base model. It works with all major PDO-supported database engines: MySQL, SQLite, SQL Server/Sybase, Oracle, PostgreSQL, etc.

/* SQL */
CREATE TABLE products (
    product_id INTEGER,
    description VARCHAR(128),
    PRIMARY KEY (product_id)
);

/* PHP */
// Create
$product=new Axon('products'); // Automatically reads the above schema
$product->product_id=123;
$product->description='Sofa bed';
$product->save(); // ORM knows it's a new record

// Retrieve
$product->load('product_id=123');
echo $product->description;

// Update
$product->description='A better sofa bed';
$product->save(); // ORM knows it's an existing record

// Delete
$product->erase();

Most of all, the plug-in and accompanying SQL data access layer are just as lightweight as the framework: 14 KB (Axon) + 6 KB (SQLdb). Fat-Free is just 55 KB.

Try Doctrine2. It’s probably the most powerful ORM tool for PHP. I’m mentioning it separately from Doctrine 1, because it’s a completely different piece of software. It’s been rewritten from scratch, is still in beta phase, but it’s usable now and developed.

It’s a very complex ORM, but well designed. Lot of magic from original Doctrine 1 disappeared. It provides a complete solution, and you can write your own ORM on top of Doctrine2 or use just one of its layers.

There’s a fantastic ORM included in the QCubed framework; it’s based on code generation and scaffolding. Unlike the ActiveRecord that’s based on reflection and is generally slow, code generation makes skeleton classes for you based on the database and lets you customize them afterward. It works like a charm.
