Classes ------- [](#classes) `Model\AbstractModel` ===================== [](#modelabstractmodel) #### Construction [](#construction) The contructor for a new `Model\AbstractModel` object takes an optional `Registry` object that defines the state of the model. If omitted, an empty `Registry` object will be assigned automatically. #### Usage [](#usage) The `Model\AbstractModel` class is abstract. All requirements of the interface are already satisfied by the base class. ``` namespace MyApp; use Joomla\Model\AbstractModel; /** * My custom model. * * @pacakge Examples * * @since 1.0 */ class MyModel extends AbstractModel { /** * Get the time. * * @return integer * * @since 1.0 */ public function getTime() { return time(); } } ``` `Model\AbstractDatabaseModel` ============================= [](#modelabstractdatabasemodel) #### Construction [](#construction-1) `Model\AbstractDatabaseModel` is extended from `Model\AbstractModel` and the contructor takes a required `Database\DatabaseDriver` object and an optional `Registry` object. #### Usage [](#usage-1) The `Model\AbstractDatabaseModel` class is abstract so cannot be used directly. It forms a base for any model that needs to interact with a database. ``` namespace MyApp use Joomla\Model; use Joomla\Database; /** * My custom database model. * * @package Examples * * @since 1.0 */ class MyDatabaseModel extends Model\AbstractDatabaseModel { /** * Get the content count. * * @return integer * * @since 1.0 * @throws RuntimeException on database error. */ public function getCount() { // Get the query builder from the internal database object. $q = $this->db->getQuery(true); // Prepare the query to count the number of content records. $q->select('COUNT(*)')->from($q->qn('#__content')); $this->db->setQuery($q); // Execute and return the result. return $this->db->loadResult(); } } try { $driver = Database\DatabaseFactory::getInstance()->getDriver('mysqli'); $model = new MyDatabaseModel($driver); $count = $model->getCount(); } catch (RuntimeException $e) { // Handle database error. } ``` Installation via Composer ------------------------- [](#installation-via-composer) Add `"joomla/model": "~3.0"` to the require block in your composer.json and then run `composer install`. ``` { "require": { "joomla/model": "~3.0" } } ``` Alternatively, you can simply run the following from the command line: ``` composer require joomla/model "~3.0" ``` ### Health Score 52 — FairBetter than 96% of packages Maintenance52 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity31 Limited adoption so far Community26 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity87 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 58.8% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement. **Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability. ### Release Activity Cadence Every ~277 days Recently: every ~163 days Total 17 Last Release 336d ago Major Versions 1.3.0 → 2.0.0-beta2020-06-05 2.0.1 → 3.0.02023-10-08 3.0.2 → 4.0.02025-07-19 PHP version history (6 changes)1.0-alphaPHP >=5.3.10 1.3.0PHP ^5.3.10|~7.0 2.0.0-betaPHP ^7.2.5 2.0.1PHP ^7.2.5|~8.0.0|~8.1.0 3.0.0PHP ^8.1.0 4.0.0PHP ^8.3.0 ### Community Maintainers ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/305a2164440014dcef9ac681c139fe5e8a1ce1d7a8c3b3cfb828497729a4c70e?d=identicon)[wilsonge](/maintainers/wilsonge) ![](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/42966168?v=4)[Release-Joomla](/maintainers/release-joomla)[@release-joomla](https://github.com/release-joomla) ![](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/313866?v=4)[Hannes Papenberg](/maintainers/Hackwar)[@Hackwar](https://github.com/Hackwar) --- Top Contributors [![mbabker](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/368545?v=4)](https://github.com/mbabker "mbabker (77 commits)")[![Hackwar](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/313866?v=4)](https://github.com/Hackwar "Hackwar (22 commits)")[![dongilbert](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/718028?v=4)](https://github.com/dongilbert "dongilbert (8 commits)")[![nibra](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/827605?v=4)](https://github.com/nibra "nibra (5 commits)")[![wilsonge](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1986000?v=4)](https://github.com/wilsonge "wilsonge (4 commits)")[![ianmacl](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/176534?v=4)](https://github.com/ianmacl "ianmacl (3 commits)")[![joomla-jenkins](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/929228?v=4)](https://github.com/joomla-jenkins "joomla-jenkins (2 commits)")[![realityking](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/628508?v=4)](https://github.com/realityking "realityking (2 commits)")[![heelc29](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/66922325?v=4)](https://github.com/heelc29 "heelc29 (2 commits)")[![photodude](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10253980?v=4)](https://github.com/photodude "photodude (1 commits)")[![richard67](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/7413183?v=4)](https://github.com/richard67 "richard67 (1 commits)")[![eddieajau](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/700871?v=4)](https://github.com/eddieajau "eddieajau (1 commits)")[![jbanety](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1055330?v=4)](https://github.com/jbanety "jbanety (1 commits)")[![elkuku](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/33978?v=4)](https://github.com/elkuku "elkuku (1 commits)")[![PhilETaylor](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/400092?v=4)](https://github.com/PhilETaylor "PhilETaylor (1 commits)") --- Tags joomlajoomla-frameworkmodelmvcphpframeworkmodeljoomla ### Code Quality TestsPHPUnit Static AnalysisPHPStan Code StylePHP\_CodeSniffer Type Coverage Yes ### Embed Badge ![Health badge](/badges/joomla-model/health.svg) ``` [![Health](https://phpackages.com/badges/joomla-model/health.svg)](https://phpackages.com/packages/joomla-model) ``` ### Alternatives [joomla/filter Joomla Filter Package 151.5M10](/packages/joomla-filter)[joomla/application Joomla Application Package 23430.4k13](/packages/joomla-application)[joomla/registry Joomla Registry Package 16505.8k21](/packages/joomla-registry)[joomla/filesystem Joomla Filesystem Package 11394.8k7](/packages/joomla-filesystem)[joomla/oauth2 Joomla OAuth2 Package 10326.4k2](/packages/joomla-oauth2) PHPackages © 2026 [Directory](/)[Categories](/categories)[Trending](/trending)[Changelog](/changelog)[Analyze](/analyze)
