A simple and efficient PHP settings management package that provides an interface to store and retrieve application settings from a database.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Easy integration with existing database connections
- Automatic serialization and deserialization of complex data types
- Support for both object-oriented and array-like access to settings
- Efficient caching of settings to minimize database queries

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require solophp/settings
```

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.1+
- PDO extension

### Basic Setup

[](#basic-setup)

First, ensure that you have a table for storing settings. The table should have two columns: `name` (string) and `value` (string).

Example table schema:

```
CREATE TABLE `settings` (
  `name` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  `value` TEXT NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`name`)
);
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

First, create an instance of the `Settings` class:

```
use Solo\Settings\Settings;

$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=app', 'user', 'pass');
$pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

$settings = new Settings($pdo, 'settings');
```

### Retrieving Settings

[](#retrieving-settings)

You can retrieve settings using either method calls or property access:

```
$value = $settings->get('my_setting');
// or
$value = $settings->my_setting;
```

### Storing Settings

[](#storing-settings)

Similarly, you can store settings using either method calls or property access:

```
$settings->set('my_setting', 'new_value');
// or
$settings->my_setting = 'new_value';
```

### Get all Settings

[](#get-all-settings)

Get all settings as an associative array.:

```
$settings->getAll();
```
