It helps developers build scalable, maintainable, and high-performance backend solutions for web applications. --- Key Features ------------ [](#key-features) - **Dynamic SQL Query Builder**: Write clean and reusable SQL queries using innovative features like `filterOptional` and `filterAnyOneRequired`. - **Entity Management**: Encapsulate business logic with lazy-loading, inter-entity connectivity, and attribute grouping. - **Modular Task Workflows**: Handle complex backend logic with reusable task classes. - **Prebuilt API Endpoints**: Ready-to-use endpoints for fetching lists, single items, field values, and more. - **Scalability & Flexibility**: Perfect for applications ranging from startups to enterprise-grade systems. --- Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install the package via Composer: ``` composer require astra-techno/data-forge ``` --- Getting Started --------------- [](#getting-started) ### 1. Publish Configuration and Setup [](#1-publish-configuration-and-setup) After installation, publish the configuration file and setup the directory structure: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="AstraTech\DataForge\DataForgeServiceProvider" ``` This will create the `app/DataForge` directory, which includes `Sql`, `Entity`, and `Task` subdirectories. --- ### 2. Create a SQL Class [](#2-create-a-sql-class) Define your SQL queries in a dedicated class: ``` namespace App\DataForge\Sql; class Product extends \DataForge\Sql { public function list(&$data) { $query = Query('ProductList'); $query->select('list', 'p.id, p.name, p.price, p.stock, c.name AS category'); $query->from('products AS p'); $query->inner('categories AS c ON p.category_id = c.id'); $query->filterOptional('p.name LIKE {%request.keyword%}'); $query->group('p.id'); $query->order('{request.sort}', '{request.order}'); return $query; } } ``` --- ### 3. Create an Entity Class [](#3-create-an-entity-class) Define the business logic for your module: ``` namespace App\DataForge\Entity; class Product { use \DataForge\Entity; function init($id) { return \Sql('Product:list', ['id' => $id, 'select' => 'entity'])->fetchRow(); } function getCategory() { return \DataForge::getCategory($this->category_id); } } ``` --- ### 4. Use API Endpoints [](#4-use-api-endpoints) Leverage prebuilt endpoints for data retrieval and task execution: - **Fetch a list of products**: ``` GET /api/list/Product:list?keyword=shoes&pageNo=1&limit=10 ``` - **Retrieve a product entity**: ``` GET /api/entity/Product/1 ``` - **Execute a task**: ``` POST /api/Task/ProductTask/detail ``` --- Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) Explore the full documentation, examples, and demo at: 🌐 **[DataForge Documentation](https://data-forge.tech)** --- Contributing ------------ [](#contributing) We welcome contributions to improve DataForge.
