Doctrine ORM Bridge
===================

[](#doctrine-orm-bridge)

This extension provide [Doctrine ORM](http://www.doctrine-project.org) in the [Contao Open Source CMS](http://contao.org). It provide an entity manager via the service `$container['doctrine.orm.entityManager']`. To use the Doctrine Connection within the Contao Database Framework, use [bit3/contao-doctrine-dbal-driver](https://github.com/bit3/contao-doctrine-dbal-driver).

Entity mapping
--------------

[](#entity-mapping)

To register an entity table, add to your **config.php**:

```
$GLOBALS['DOCTRINE_ENTITIES'][] = 'orm_my_entity_type';
```

The table name will be converted to `MyEntityType`.

Custom Namespaces can be mapped by a *table name prefix* to *class namespace* map:

```
$GLOBALS['DOCTRINE_ENTITY_NAMESPACE_MAP']['orm_my_entity'] = 'My\Entity';
```

Now the table name will be converted to `My\Entity\Type`.

While `DOCTRINE_ENTITY_NAMESPACE_MAP` is used for table name transformation, the array `DOCTRINE_ENTITY_NAMESPACE_ALIAS` is used to define doctrine namespace aliases.

```
$GLOBALS['DOCTRINE_ENTITY_NAMESPACE_ALIAS']['My'] = 'My\Entity';
```

Now you can use `My:Type` instead of `My\Entity\Type` as entity name.
