Switon's entity mapping layer for attribute-driven models, repository queries, relations, lifecycle events, sharding-aware writes, and pagination boundaries.

Highlights
----------

[](#highlights)

- **Relationship mapping:** `Entity` classes declare linked records through attributes.
- **Relationship loading:** `RelationManager` handles eager and lazy loading.
- **Attribute-based mapping:** `Entity` classes declare tables, columns, IDs, and constraints through attributes.
- **Runtime-only properties:** `#[Transient]` keeps temporary fields out of persistence.
- **Repository queries:** `RepositoryInterface` and `Repository` cover filters, lookup, relation-backed reads, and pagination.
- **Safe write flow:** create and update paths include fill, validation, events, and `#[Transactional]` support.
- **Shard-safe writes:** writes resolve a single shard before they run.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require switon/orm
```

Quick Start
-----------

[](#quick-start)

```
use Switon\Core\Attribute\Autowired;
use Switon\Orm\Attribute\{Id, Table, Transient};
use Switon\Orm\Entity;
use Switon\Orm\Page;
use Switon\Orm\Repository;

#[Table('users')]
class User extends Entity
{
    #[Id]
    public ?int $id = null;

    public string $name;

    public string $email;

    #[Transient]
    public ?string $displayName = null;
}

final class UserRepository extends Repository
{
}

final class UserController
{
    #[Autowired] protected UserRepository $userRepository;

    public function indexAction(Page $page): \Switon\Query\Paginator
    {
        return $this->userRepository->paginate($page);
    }
}
```
