Leaf-Orm
========

[](#leaf-orm)

A super light ORM-ish library for using MongoDB with PHP

### This package has been depreciated, the new library to use is [MongoDB Helpers](https://github.com/eman-development-design/mongodb-helpers)

[](#this-package-has-been-depreciated-the-new-library-to-use-is-mongodb-helpers)

Requirement
-----------

[](#requirement)

- PHP 7.1 or newer
- MongoDB Extension 1.1 or newer

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

[](#installation)

`composer require eman-development-design/Leaf-Orm`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

There's two simple items, a model and a repository object.

### Model

[](#model)

Consider the example below:

```
use MongoDB\BSON\Serializable;
use MongoDB\Model\BSONDocument;
use Leaf\Model\MongoModel

class User implements Serializable, MongoModel
{
    public $userGuid;
    public $email;
    public $firstName;
    public $lastName;

    public function bsonSerialize() : array
    {
        return [
            'UserGuid' => $this->userGuid,
            'Email' => $this->email,
            'FirstName' => $this->firstName,
            'LastName' => $this->lastName
        ];
    }

    public function map(BSONDocument $document)
    {
        $this->userGuid = $document['UserGuid'];
        $this->email = $document['Email'];
        $this->firstName = $document['FirstName'];
        $this->lastName = $document['LastName'];
    }

    public function toArray() : array
    {
        return [
            'UserGuid' => $this->userGuid,
            'Email' => $this->email,
            'FirstName' => $this->firstName,
            'LastName' => $this->lastName
        ];
    }
}
```

`map` will take a BSON Document and populate the model.

`toArray` will convert your model to an array.

### Repository

[](#repository)

`MongoRepository` is used for your repository layer, it only has one method, which is a way to fetch a collection.
