Any interest in an ORM module? (Propel/ActiveRecord)

[drmikecrowe]

Hi folks,

I had a need for an ORM (well, specifically a database-driven tree structure), and I'm a huge fan of Propel (http://www.propelorm.org/).

I've just managed to prototype a module that integrates Propel with CMSMS (1.11.1, but should work on 1.10.x too). This would allow you to do things like (with no new imports):

Code: Select all

		$user = new CmsUsers();
		$user->setUsername("drmikecrowe");
		$user->setPassword($password);
		$user->setAdminAccess(1);
		$user->setFirstName("Mike");
		$user->setLastName("Crowe");
		$user->setActive(1);
		$user->setEmail("mail@domain.com");
		$user->save();

and

Code: Select all

$users = CmsUsersQuery::create()->filterByActive(1)->orderByCreateDate()->find();

Caution: The paint is very wet, and I probably need a week or so to finalize this and massage it into something that might be testable.

LMK, by answering the poll, if there is any interest in this.

TIA
Mike
