Its goal is to remove limitations existing in the upstream version and add additional functionalities while keeping in sync with CodeIgniter. It can be used as a standalone package or as a replacement to the CodeIgniter database layer. ### Installation [](#installation) #### Replacement for the CodeIgniter database layer [](#replacement-for-the-codeigniter-database-layer) - Replace all files and directories in your `system/database` directory. - Replace `application/config/database.php` file. ### Changelog and New Features [](#changelog-and-new-features) You can find a list of all changes in the upstream version in the [user guide change log](https://github.com/pocketarc/codeigniter/blob/develop/user_guide_src/source/changelog.rst). #### InsaneDB Major Changes [](#insanedb-major-changes) ##### New features [](#new-features) > - Added Read/Write connections mode. > - Read delay option in Read/Write connections mode. > - Automatic reconnect on dropped connection for the MySQL and PostgreSQL drivers. ##### Improvements [](#improvements) > - PDO adapter drivers replacing all vendor specific drivers(where applicable). > - Added option for manual setting the size of the batch query functions. > - General simplifications of the configuration file. > - Removed \['compress'\] and \['encrypt'\] options, they can be passed by the new \['options'\] variable. > - Improved `reconnect()`, now working for all the drivers. > - Improved `num_rows()`, should be faster for big result sets. > - Added `insert_ignore_batch()` method. > - Changed parameter order of `insert_batch()` and `insert_ignore_batch()`. > - Added option which keys to be included in `update_batch()`, `insert_batch()` and `insert_ignore_batch()`. ##### Behaviour bugfix [](#behaviour-bugfix) > - Fixed a bug (#) - method `close()` didn't close a connection with valid result object. ### Server Requirements [](#server-requirements) PHP version 8.0 or newer is required. It is recommend to migrate to newer version of PHP sooner than later. ### License [](#license) Please see the [license agreement](https://github.com/madwings/InsaneDB/blob/master/license.txt). ### Health Score 52 — FairBetter than 96% of packages Maintenance86 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity15 Limited adoption so far Community21 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity77 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 66.1% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
