Why "Spider?" Because spiders crawl over webs, and webs look like graphs. Walk your data. This readme is very limited. See **[the full documentation](http://spider-ogm.readthedocs.org/en/latest/)** for a guidebook. Current Version --------------- [](#current-version) Spider is still under active development. All releases are well-tested and stable, though maybe not ready for production yet. The current version is v0.3.0 - which includes a basic command builder, connections, and drivers. For a roadmap see [the full documentation](http://spider-ogm.readthedocs.org/en/latest/). Please use spider anywhere you can and open issues around bugs or edge cases. Goals ----- [](#goals) - Framework agnostic, community-driven with best practices. - Made *specifically* for highly-relational data. - An easy transition from SQL or Mongo. - Simple, fluent, and consistent API. - Simple drivers to connect to specific graph databases or other datastores. - Extensible and configurable. Current Features ---------------- [](#current-features) - Drivers for Gremlin Server, Neo4j, and OrientDB. - Easily [create your own one-class drivers](create-driver.md). - Fluent [Query Builder](command-builder.md) and Basic [Command Builder](command-builder.md). - Handle, cache, and manage multiple [connections](getting-started.md). - Consistent responses with various [formats](responses.md). Upcoming Features ----------------- [](#upcoming-features) - Fluent traversals through the query and command builder. - Database agnostic Schema Builder. - Simple yet powerful Models and Object Graph Mappers - Graph data utilities (algorithms, etc.). - SSL support, data-binding, filters, validation, caching, logging, and more. - Extensible so you can use your own loggers, cachers, etc. Setup and Basic Usage --------------------- [](#setup-and-basic-usage) Install via Composer ``` $ composer require spider/spider ``` The `master` branch contains stable code, though not necessarily ready for production. The `develop` branch is a step ahead and may me unstable right now. The simplest thing to do from there is use the query builder ``` $connection = new Connection([ 'driver' => 'neo4j' 'hostname' => 'localhost' 'port' => 7474, 'username' => 'root', 'password' => 'root' ]); $query = new Spider\Commands\Query($connection); $characters = $query ->select('name, position, catch_phrase') ->from('characters') ->where('show', 'Firefly') ->orderBy('name') ->all(); foreach ($characters as $character) { $character->name; // Wash $character->position; // Pilot $character->catch_phrase; // "I am a leaf on the wind." } ``` Of course, there's a lot more you can do.
