BerlinDB provides an ORM-like interface for custom database tables in WordPress.

Use it when custom post types, taxonomies, or post meta are no longer the right storage model for your data, but you still want a WordPress-native developer experience: `wpdb` compatibility, schema objects, query builders, row objects, caching hooks, and table upgrade routines.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.1 or newer
- WordPress
- Composer

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require berlindb/core
```

Quick Start
-----------

[](#quick-start)

A typical integration defines four small classes:

- a `Schema` that describes columns and indexes
- a `Table` that creates and upgrades the database table
- a `Row` that shapes returned records
- a `Query` that reads and writes records

### Define A Schema
