Andela Checkpoint Two

A simple agnostic ORM that can perform the basic crud database operations., _(*2)

TIA

Install

Via Composer, _(*3)

$ composer require john-kariuki/potato-orm

Via Github, _(*4)

``` bash $ git clone git@github.com:andela-jkariuki/checkpoint-two-potato-orm.git, <sub>(*5)</sub>

Update packages

``` bash
$ composer install

Rename .env.example to .env, <sub>(*6)</sub>

Update your .env to have your database credentials, <sub>(*7)</sub>

DB_DRIVER = "sqlite"
DB_USERNAME = "homestead"
DB_PASSWORD = "secret"
DB_NAME = "potato.db"
DB_HOST = "localhost"
DB_PORT = 8000

Usage

To use Potato ORM, extend the PotatoModel class., <sub>(*8)</sub>

The default naming convention for a table name associated with a class is it's lowercase plural syntax., <sub>(*9)</sub>

The default naming convention for the unique table field is id., <sub>(*10)</sub>

To overwrite the default naming conventions, declare protected variables as explained below., <sub>(*11)</sub>

/**
 * Default table name for Car class is cars.
 *
 * Default uniqueId field for table cars is id
 */
class Car extends PotatoModel
{
    //protected static $table = "your_table_name";
    //protected static $uniqueId = "your_unique_id";
}

Ensure the table exists before using the Potato ORM class to avoid exceptions., <sub>(*12)</sub>

Use the SQL statement template below, <sub>(*13)</sub>

CREATE TABLE `cars` (
    `id`    INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
    `name`  TEXT,
    `model` TEXT,
    `year`  INTEGER
)

Potato ORM gives you access to the following methods;, <sub>(*14)</sub>

Reading Data, <sub>(*15)</sub>

//Get all rows that from a table
$cars = Car::getAll();

Inserting data, <sub>(*16)</sub>

//insert a new row to the table
$car = new Car();
$car->name = "Boss";
$car->model = "Up";
$car->year = 2013;

$car->save(); //returns a boolean value. true or false if saved or not respectively.

Updating data, <sub>(*17)</sub>

//Update an existing row in the database
$car = Car::find(1);
$car->name = "Me Hennesy";
$car->year = 2015;

Deleting data, <sub>(*18)</sub>

//delete an existing row in the table
var_dump(Car::destroy(1));

Sample Code

Ensure to write your code inside a try catch block to catch any exceptions, <sub>(*19)</sub>

namespace DryRun;

use Potato\Manager\PotatoModel;
use PDOException;

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

class Car extends PotatoModel
{
    //protected static $table = "your_table_name";
    //protected static $uniqueId = "your_unique_id";
}
try {

    echo "Create a new Car\n";

    $car = new Car();
    $car->name = "Lambo";
    $car->model = "Hura";
    $car->year = 2013;

    if ( $car->save()) {
       echo "\nCar has been created.\n\n";
    } else {
       echo "There was an error saving your car.";
    }

    echo  "Find the car that has just been created and updated the name and year\n";

    $car = Car::find(1);

    $car->name = "Huracan";
    $car->year = 2015;


    echo $car->save();

    echo "\None row (of our new Car) has been updated.\n\n";

    echo "Get all cars and print them out\n\n";
    $cars = Car::getAll();
    print_r($cars);

    echo "\nAwesome.! Now let's delete the old car. Buy A new one if you can\n\n";

    var_dump(Car::destroy(1));
    print_r(Car::getAll());

    echo "\nYour old car is dead and gone\n";

} catch (PDOException $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage();
}
