What is it?
-----------

[](#what-is-it)

This package is the Active Record component from **Yii 1.1**, extracted and refactored to run on **PHP 8.4+** without requiring the full Yii framework.

- ✅ Same API you know from Yii 1
- ✅ PHP 8 types and attributes support
- ✅ No `Yii::app()` dependency
- ✅ Works with any PSR-11 compatible container

---

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

[](#requirements)

- PHP ≥ 8.4
- PSR-11 `ContainerInterface` (required)
- Optional PSR dependencies (if used in your app):
    - `Psr\Log\LoggerInterface`
    - `Psr\SimpleCache\CacheInterface`
    - `Psr\EventDispatcher\EventDispatcherInterface`

---

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require yii1x/active-record
```

---

Bootstrap
---------

[](#bootstrap)

Before using any model, initialize the ORM context once per application lifecycle:

```
use Yii1x\ActiveRecord\ORMContext;

ORMContext::bootstrap($container, debug: false);
```

Where `$container` is your PSR-11 container.

The container must be able to return a **configured database connection instance** by name (e.g., `'db'` or `'yourDbName'`).

This can be:

- An instance of `Yii1x\ActiveRecord\Db\DbConnection`
- Any class extending `DbConnection`
