This package provides a Laravel Eloquent service provider for Silex applications. It was pulled from [this gist](https://gist.github.com/ziadoz/7326872) created by [Jamie York](https://github.com/ziadoz). It is his creation, not ours. We just maintain this version for use in our public and client projects.

The instructions below show basic usage, and assume that you're already familiar with [Eloquent and creating models, etc](http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/eloquent).

Silex 2 and the future
----------------------

[](#silex-2-and-the-future)

There's the basic code for updating this to Silex 2.x and Illuminate 5.1, but since Lumen has arrived on the scene, it seems that it would be a bit [redundant](https://github.com/BitolaCo/silex-eloquent/issues/1) to work on maintaining the project in the future for Silex 2. If you need Eloquent and a microframework for new proejcts, Lumen would seem to be the way to go.

That being said, if someone is interested in helping test the code already there in the [silex-v2 branch](https://github.com/BitolaCo/silex-eloquent/tree/silex-v2), let us know!

Unless that happens, we plan to maintain this until the end of life for Silex 1.X only.

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

[](#installation)
