Doctrine2 behavioral extensions
Version 2.2-DEV
Latest updates
Note: Use 2.1.x tag in order to use extensions based on Doctrine2.1.x versions. Currently
master branch is based on 2.2.x versions and may not work with 2.1.x components. ODM currently
does not work with doctrine common 2.2.x

- Refactored html tree building function, see documentation
- Added example
on how to create entity manager with extensions hooked using environment without framework
- To run this example follow the documentation on the bottom of this document
2011-10-30
- Support for doctrine common 2.2.x with backward compatibility. Be sure to use all components
from the specific version, etc.: 2.2.x or 2.1.x both are supported

- @everzet has contributed the Translator behavior, which indeed
is a more explicit way of handling translations in your projects
2011-10-08
- Thanks to @acasademont Translatable now does not store translations for default locale. It is always left as original record value.
So be sure you do not change your default locale per project or per data migration. This way
it is more rational and unnecessary to store it additionaly in translation table.

- Sluggable was refactored with a BC break for the sake of simplicity it now uses a single @Slug annotation.
Also there were slug handlers introduced for extended sluggable functionality, like path based
or relation based slugs. See the documentation
Summary and features
This package contains extensions for Doctrine2 that hook into the facilities of Doctrine and
offer new functionality or tools to use Doctrine2 more efficently. This package contains mostly
used behaviors which can be easily attached to your event system of Doctrine2 and handle the
records being flushed in the behavioral way. List of extensions:
- Tree - this extension automates the tree handling process and adds some tree specific functions on repository. (closure or nestedset)
- Translatable - gives you a very handy solution for translating records into diferent languages. Easy to setup, easier to use.
- Sluggable - urlizes your specified fields into single unique slug
- Timestampable - updates date fields on create, update and even property change.
- Loggable - helps tracking changes and history of objects, also supports version managment.
- Sortable - makes any document or entity sortable
- Translator - explicit way to handle translations
Currently these extensions support Yaml, Annotation and Xml mapping. Additional mapping drivers
can be easily implemented using Mapping extension to handle the additional metadata mapping.
Note: Please note, that xml mapping needs to be in a different namespace, the declared namespace for
Doctrine extensions is http://gediminasm.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-extensions-mapping
So root node now looks like this:
Note: Use 2.1.x tag in order to use extensions based on Doctrine2.1.x versions. Currently
master branch is based on 2.2.x versions and may not work with 2.1.x
<doctrine-mapping xmlns="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping"
xmlns:gedmo="http://gediminasm.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-extensions-mapping">
...
</doctrine-mapping>
XML mapping xsd schemas are also versioned and can be used by version suffix:
ODM MongoDB support
List of extensions which support ODM
- Translatable
- Sluggable
- Timestampable
- Loggable
- Sortable
- Translator
All these extensions can be nested together and mapped in traditional ways - annotations,
xml or yaml
Notice: extension tutorial on doctrine blog is outdated, most recent documentation is in doc directory.
There is a post introducing to these extensions on doctrine project
You can test these extensions on my blog.
All tutorials for basic usage examples are on my blog also.
Running the tests:
PHPUnit 3.5 or newer is required.
To setup and run tests follow these steps:
- go to the root directory of extensions
- run: php bin/vendors.php
- run: phpunit -c tests
- optional - run mongodb in background to complete all tests
Running the example:
To setup and run example follow these steps:
- go to the root directory of extensions
- run: php bin/vendors.php installs doctrine and required symfony libraries
- edit example/em.php and configure your database on top of the file
- run: ./example/bin/console or php example/bin/console for console commands
- run: ./example/bin/console orm:schema-tool:create to create schema
- run: php example/run.php to run example
