Doctrine 2 for Laravel 5
========================

[](#doctrine-2-for-laravel-5)

A **forked implementation of [laravel-doctrine](https://github.com/mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine)** that melts with Laravel 5.

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

As this is a **forked version** [the documentation](https://github.com/mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine) still applies to most of the package. Please read [the original documentation](https://github.com/mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine/wiki) and [README](https://github.com/mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine) before using this fork.

- **Backwards compatibility with all current doctrine configs using annotations**

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

[](#installation)

Begin by installing the package through Composer. Edit your project's `composer.json` to require `mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine`.

```
"require": {
    "mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine": "dev-l5",
    "doctrine/orm": "2.5.*@dev"
},
  "repositories": [
    {
      "type": "git",
      "url": "https://github.com/FoxxMD/laravel-doctrine.git"
    }
  ]
```

Next use Composer to update your project from the the Terminal:

```
php composer.phar update
```

**Caveats**

At the moment Doctrine\\ORM version 2.5 is still in beta. As a result the composer install may require you to change the `minimum-stability` in your `composer.json` to `dev`.

If you don't want to affect the stability of the rest of the packages, you can add the following property in your `composer.json`:

`"prefer-stable": true`

Once the package has been installed you'll need to add the service provider. Open your `app/config/app.php` configuration file, and add a new item to the `providers` array.

```
'Mitch\LaravelDoctrine\LaravelDoctrineServiceProvider'
```

After This you'll need to add the facade. Open your `app/config/app.php` configuration file, and add a new item to the `aliases` array.

```
'EntityManager' => 'Mitch\LaravelDoctrine\EntityManagerFacade',
'RegistryManager' => 'Mitch\LaravelDoctrine\RegistryManagerFacade'
```

It's recommended to publish the package configuration.

```
php artisan config:publish mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine --path=vendor/mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine/config
```

\##Using different metadata drivers

Doctrine provides [several drivers](https://doctrine-orm.readthedocs.org/en/latest/reference/metadata-drivers.html) that can be used to map table information to entity classes. For more information see [sections 19, 20, and 21 of the doctrine reference guide](https://doctrine-orm.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html#reference-guide).

**A default doctrine config will use the annotation driver. This is the way laravel-doctrine works out of the box. If this is all you need you can continue to use the documentation provided by [laravel-doctrine's wiki](https://github.com/mitchellvanw/laravel-doctrine/wiki/Doctrine-Configuration).**

To use a different driver edit the `metadata` property of the entity manager you want to use the driver with (in `doctrine.config`)

```
'entity_managers' => [
    'default' => [
        ...
        'metadata' => [
            'simple' => false,
            'driver' => 'yaml', //xml or yaml or annotation (ANNOTATION IS DEFAULT)
            'paths' => [
                base_path('app/Models/mappings') //all base paths to mapping directories go here
            ],
            'extension' => '.dcm.yml' //extension for mapping files if not using simple driver
        ],
    ],
  ]

```

Refer to the doctrine reference guide on how to set up each driver.

\##Using multiple entity managers

If you use the regular `EntityManager` facade you will receive the `default` EM defined in your doctrine config. To use multiple entity managers

- Use the `RegistryManager` facade or
- Inject `ManagerRegistry` into your controller

**Using the facade**

```
use RegistryManager;
public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
    $this->_em = RegistryManager::getManager('tracking'); //gets 'tracking' EM
    $this->_em = RegistryManager::getManager(); //gets 'default' EM

    $this->inventoryRepo = $this->_em->getRepository('app\Models\Inventory');
}

```

**Using DI**

```
public function __construct(ManagerRegistry $reg)
{
    parent::__construct();
    $this->_em = $reg->getManager('tracking'); //gets 'tracking' EM
    $this->_em = $reg->getManager(); //gets 'default' EM

    $this->inventoryRepo = $this->_em->getRepository('app\Models\Inventory');
}

```

Using DoctrineExtensions
------------------------

[](#using-doctrineextensions)

[DoctrineExtensions](https://github.com/beberlei/DoctrineExtensions) is a set of extensions to Doctrine 2 that add support for additional query functions available in MySQL and Oracle. To learn more about what additional functionality is added visit [the package's github page](https://github.com/beberlei/DoctrineExtensions).

To use DoctrineExtensions install the package with composer:

```
composer require beberlei/DoctrineExtensions

```

Configuring extensions is easy and follows the pattern used by [DoctrineExtensions in its own config](https://github.com/beberlei/DoctrineExtensions/blob/master/config/mysql.yml). In your doctrine config simply add a `dql` array to every entity manager you want extensions accessible from or add the array to the top-level of your configuration to have it applied to all entity managers.

```
'dql' => [
    'numeric_functions' => [
        'ROUND' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Round',
        'POWER' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Power'
        ...
    ],
    'string_functions' => [
        'REPLACE' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Replace'
        ...
    ],
    'datetime_functions' => [
        'DATE' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Date'
        ...
    ]
]

```

That's it! Use DoctrineExtensions as you normally would.

New Doctrine Configuration Reference
------------------------------------

[](#new-doctrine-configuration-reference)

A complete sample of doctrine configuration taking advantage of all new functionality, with comments.

```
return [
    'default_connection' => 'default',
    'entity_managers' => [
        'default' => [ //MUST have an entity_managers entry for 'default'
            'connection' => 'rdsConnection',
            'cache_provider' => null,
            'repository' => 'Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository',
            'logger' => null,
            'metadata' => [
                'simple' => false,
                'driver' => 'yaml', //xml or yaml or annotation (ANNOTATION IS DEFAULT)
                'paths' => [
                    base_path('app/Models/mappings') //all base paths to mapping directories go here
                ],
                'extension' => '.dcm.yml' //extension for mapping files if not using simple driver
            ],
            //Only usable if DoctrineExtensions is installed
            /*'dql' => [
                'numeric_functions' => [
                    'ROUND' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Round',
                    'POWER' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Power'
                    ...
                ],
                'string_functions' => [
                    'REPLACE' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Replace'
                    ...
                ],
                'datetime_functions' => [
                    'DATE' => 'DoctrineExtensions\Query\Mysql\Date'
                    ...
                ]
            ]*/
        ],
        'tracking' => [
            'connection' => 'trackingConnection',
            'cache_provider' => null,
            'repository' => 'Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository',
            'simple_annotations' => false,
            'logger' => null,
            'metadata' => [
                'simple' => false,
                'driver' => 'annotation'
                //paths is not necessary for annotation
            ],
        ],
    ],
    'proxy' => [
        'auto_generate' => true, //create proxy files automatically (turn off for production)
        'directory' => base_path('storage/proxies'), //store them outside of default directory
        'namespace' => null
    ],
    //'cache_provider' => 'apc',
    //'logger' => new \Doctrine\DBAL\Logging\EchoSQLLogger()
    //'dql' => ...
];

Contributing and Fork Status
----------------------------

[](#contributing-and-fork-status)

This fork **is not an official implementation of laravel-doctrine for Laravel 5** so I cannot gaurantee that it will continue to work or or be maintained in the future as Laravel changes, HOWEVER I use it on a daily basis with production code and so will keep it up to date as long as it is relevant for me.

I am happy to accept PRs and any other contributions from the community and will respond in a timely manner. I am open to accepting collaborators as well.
