Cycle ORM integration with Laravel

This package provides an integration Cycle ORM with Laravel. We are supporting integration both versions of the ORM. Internally, it uses the bridge package that can be used with almost any framework.

Requirements

  • PHP >= 8.0
  • Laravel 7, 8, 9

The package uses Cycle ORM 1 or 2 (branches v1.x and v2.x accordingly).

Installation

  1. Install the package via composer:
composer require wakebit/laravel-cycle
  1. Publish the config cycle.php:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Wakebit\LaravelCycle\ServiceProvider" --tag=config

Usage

  1. Configure database connection in the database config section. You don't need to make any changes if you are already using any of Laravel-compatible database driver. It uses same DB_* environment variables. The contents of the key should return a \Cycle\Database\Config\DatabaseConfig instance. See more here.
  2. Configure paths where your entities located in tokenizer section. By default, class locator looks them in app folder.

Define entity:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Entity;

use Cycle\Annotated\Annotation\Entity;
use Cycle\Annotated\Annotation\Column;

#[Entity]
class User
{
    #[Column(type: 'primary')]
    protected int $id;

    #[Column(type: 'string')]
    protected string $name;

    public function getId(): int
    {
        return $this->id;
    }

    public function getName(): string
    {
        return $this->name;
    }

    public function setName(string $name): void
    {
        $this->name = $name;
    }
}

You can take DBAL, ORM and Entity Manager from the container. Quick example of usage:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Cycle\Database\DatabaseProviderInterface;
use Cycle\ORM\EntityManagerInterface;
use Cycle\ORM\ORMInterface;
use Illuminate\Http\Response;

final class HomeController
{    
    public function __construct(
        private DatabaseProviderInterface $dbal,
        private EntityManagerInterface $em,
        private ORMInterface $orm,
    ) {
    }
    
    public function __invoke()
    {
        // DBAL
        $tables = $this->dbal->database()->getTables();
        $tableNames = array_map(fn (\Cycle\Database\TableInterface $table): string => $table->getName(), $tables);
        dump($tableNames);
        
        // Create, modify, delete entities using Transaction
        $user = new \App\Entity\User();
        $user->setName("Hello World");
        $this->em->persist($user);
        $this->em->run();
        dump($user);
        
        // ORM
        $repository = $this->orm->getRepository(\App\Entity\User::class);
        $users = $repository->findAll();
        dump($users);
        
        $user = $repository->findByPK(1);
        dump($user);
    }
}

See more on the official Cycle ORM documentation.

Working with ORM schema

Schema can be compiled and stored in the cache (recommended for production usage). You can specify the caching driver in cycle.orm.schema config key:

use Wakebit\CycleBridge\Schema\Config\SchemaConfig;

return [
    // ...
    'orm' => [
        'schema' => new SchemaConfig([
            'cache' => [
                'store' => env('CACHE_DRIVER', 'file'),           
            ],
        ]),
    ],
    // ...
]

Commands

Command Description Options
php artisan cycle:schema:migrate Generate ORM schema migrations - --run: Automatically run generated migration.
- -v: Verbose output.
php artisan cycle:schema:cache Compile and cache ORM schema
php artisan cycle:schema:clear Clear cached schema (schema will be generated every request now)
php artisan cycle:schema:sync Sync ORM schema with database without intermediate migration (risk operation!)
php artisan cycle:schema:render Render available Cycle ORM schemas - --no-color: Display output without colors.

Database migrations

You can specify the name of migrations table, the path where migrations will be created in cycle.migrations config key.

Commands

Command Description Options
php artisan cycle:migrate:init Initialize migrator: create a table for migrations
php artisan cycle:migrate Run all outstanding migrations - --one: Execute only one (first) migration.
- --force: Force the operation to run when in production.
php artisan cycle:migrate:rollback Rollback the last migration - --all: Rollback all executed migrations.
- --force: Force the operation to run when in production.
php artisan cycle:migrate:replay Replay (down, up) one or multiple migrations. - --all: Replay all migrations.
php artisan cycle:migrate:status Get a list of available migrations

Database commands

Command Description Options
php artisan cycle:db:list Get list of available databases, their tables and records count - --database: Database name
php artisan cycle:db:table <table> Describe table schema of specific database - --database: Database name

Writing tests

If you are using memory database (SQLite) you can just run migrations in the setUp method of the your test:

public function setUp(): void
{
    parent::setUp();
    
    $this->artisan('cycle:migrate');
}

For another databases follow this instruction and drop all tables in the tearDown method.

Advanced

Manually defined ORM schema

If you want to use a manually defined ORM schema you can define it in the cycle.orm.schema SchemaConfig's map config key (this key is not present by default):

use Wakebit\CycleBridge\Schema\Config\SchemaConfig;

return [
    // ...
    'orm' => [
        'schema' => new SchemaConfig([
            'map' => require __DIR__ . '/../orm_schema.php',
            // ... 
        ]),
    ]
    // ...
]

Manually defined schema should be presented as array. It will be passed to \Cycle\ORM\Schema constructor. See more here.

Custom schema compilation pipeline

You can redefine the ORM schema compilation generators in the cycle.orm.schema SchemaConfig's generators config key (this key is not present by default):

use Wakebit\CycleBridge\Schema\Config\SchemaConfig;

return [
    // ...
    'orm' => [
        'schema' => new SchemaConfig([
            'generators' => [
                'index' => [],
                'render' => [
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\ResetTables::class,         // re-declared table schemas (remove columns)
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\GenerateRelations::class,   // generate entity relations
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\GenerateModifiers::class,   // generate changes from schema modifiers
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\ValidateEntities::class,    // make sure all entity schemas are correct
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\RenderTables::class,        // declare table schemas
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\RenderRelations::class,     // declare relation keys and indexes
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\RenderModifiers::class,     // render all schema modifiers
                ],
                'postprocess' => [
                    \Cycle\Schema\Generator\GenerateTypecast::class,    // typecast non string columns
                ],
            ]
        ]),
    ]
    // ...
]

Classes will be resolved by DI container. Default pipeline you can see here in the bridge package.

Using custom collection

By default, ORM uses arrays for collection of items. If you want to use Laravel collections instead of or some another collection you can add the following key to config to orm section:

return [
    // ...
    'orm' => [
        'default_collection_factory_class' => \Cycle\ORM\Collection\IlluminateCollectionFactory::class,
        // ...
    ],
    // ...
]

The factory class will be resolved by container. It should implement the \Cycle\ORM\Collection\CollectionFactoryInterface interface.

Notes

  • We don't have a plan to create Laravel Facades, magic helpers, etc. You can create them yourself if you need to.
