Standalone Active Record
========================

[](#setup)

composer.phar require sujayjaju/php-active-record

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
// Include
use ActiveRecord\ActiveDatabase;

...

// Create Database configs
$db_config = array(
    'hostname' => "localhost",
    'username' => "username",
    'password' => "password",
    'database' => "database_name",
    'dbdriver' => "mysql",
    'pconnect' => FALSE,
    'db_debug' => TRUE
);

// Add Config and give it a name
ActiveDatabase::addConfig("read", $db_config);

$query = ActiveDatabase::get("read")->get('table_name')
$row = $query->result_array();
print_r($row);
```
