The project was originally started by [Jonathan Geiger](http://jonathan-geiger.com/) and co-developed by [Paul Banks](http://blog.banksdesigns.co.uk/). IMPORTANT ========= [](#important) **Critical to know**: - use the `3.x/master` branches for production as the `3.x/develop` branches are subject to frequent and major changes - userguide is being updated **Requirements** Jelly requires the following Kohana versions per Git branch: - `3.1/develop` and `3.1/master` branches: Kohana 3.1.3+ - `3.2/develop` and `3.2/master` branches: Kohana 3.2+ **Useful stuff**: - [Jelly driver for Kohana Auth](https://github.com/creatoro/jelly-auth) - [Report an issue or feature request](https://github.com/creatoro/jelly/issues) - [Leave feedback in the forum](http://forum.kohanaframework.org/discussion/9833/jelly-for-kohana-3.2-auth-driver) **Get involved in Jelly's developement** As Jelly has always been a community project it's development and future depends on people who are willing to put some time into it. The easiest way to contribute is to fork the project. Remember: - you can directly edit files on GitHub (look for the `Edit this file` button), there's no need to get familiar with Git if you don't want to - please follow the [Kohana conventions](http://kohanaframework.org/3.2/guide/kohana/conventions) for coding - read the introduction to the unit tests in the guide and run them if you make changes to Jelly to minimalize the chances of introducing new bugs - and thanks for helping Jelly become better! Notable Features ---------------- [](#notable-features) - **Standard support for all of the common relationships** — This includes `belongs_to`, `has_many`, and `many_to_many`. Pretty much standard these days. - **Top-to-bottom table column aliasing** – All references to database columns and tables are made via their aliased names and converted transparently, on the fly. - **Active testing on MySQL and SQLite** — All of the Jelly unit tests work 100% correctly on both MySQL, SQLite and PostgresSQL databases. - **A built-in query builder** — This features is a near direct port from Kohana's native ORM. I find its usage much simpler than Sprig's. - **Extensible field architecture** — All fields in a model are represented by a `Field_*` class, which can be easily overridden and created for custom needs. Additionally, fields can implement behaviors that let the model know it has special ways of doing things. - **No circular references** — Fields are well-designed to prevent the infinite loop problem that sometimes plagues Sprig. It's even possible to have same-table child/parent references out of the box without intermediate models. ### Health Score 29 — LowBetter than 57% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity8 Limited adoption so far Community16 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity64 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
