Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` $ composer require Wilson/potato-orm ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) - Simply extend the base class. The base class is an abstract class called "Base". So for example if you have a users table in the database and you wish to perform create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations on the table, create a corresponding class like this ``` use Wilson\Source\Base; class User extends Base { } ``` - Insert a record into the table ``` $person = new User(); $person->name = "Wilson Omokoro"; $person->email = "wilson.omokoro@andela.com"; $person->password = "12345"; $person->save(); ``` - Find a particular record in the table ``` $user = User::find(3); echo $user->result; ``` - Read all records from the table ``` $users = User::getAll(); print_r($users); ``` - Update a record in the table. For example update the password of the fifth record in the users table: ``` $user = User::find(5); $user->password = "lkHJu9Z"; $user->save(); ``` - Delete a record from the table. For example delete the third record in the users table: ``` $user = User::destroy(3); ``` Testing ------- [](#testing) If the folder containing your test classes is "tests" ``` $ phpunit tests ``` Change log ---------- [](#change-log) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.
