Implementing the Eloquent ORM into Symfony

WouterJEloquentBundle

The WouterJEloquentBundle claims to integrate the Eloquent ORM into the Symfony framework., _(*1)

If you wish to use the Symfony Serializer with Eloquent Models you can check EloquentSerializer., _(*2)

Supported versions

This bundle supports Symfony 4.4 & 5.x, and Laravel ^6.18 & ^7.15., _(*3)

Contribute to this repository to this repository if you want to add support for other versions., _(*4)

Installation

Step 1: Download the Bundle

Open a command console, enter your project directory and run the following command to download the latest stable version of this bundle:, _(*5)

$ composer require wouterj/eloquent-bundle

This command requires you to have Composer installed globally, as explained in the installation chapter of the Composer documentation., _(*6)

When you want to use useful make commands (e.g. make:model), also make sure you have the Symfony MakerBundle installed., _(*7)

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

If you're using Symfony Flex, the previous step already got you up and running and you can skip this step!, _(*8)

Otherwise, enable the bundle by adding it to the list of registered bundles in the app/AppKernel.php file of your project:, _(*9)

<?php
// config/bundles.php

return [
    // ...
    WouterJ\EloquentBundle\WouterJEloquentBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

Step 3: Configure the Database

To use the Eloquent ORM, configure a connection by setting the correct environment variables in .env.local:, _(*10)

# .env.local
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=symfony
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=s3cr3t

If you're not using Symfony Flex, create the configuration file yourself:, _(*11)

# config/packages/eloquent.yaml
wouterj_eloquent:
    driver:   mysql
    host:     localhost
    database: db_name
    username: root
    password: pass
    prefix:   ~
