propel-laravel

Propel2 integration for Laravel framework. Only 5.x versions supported. 4.x version can be found in repo of initial developer of current package.

Usage

First of all: you need to understand that current package is in heavy development. We try to maintain 1.* branch as stable and tested as it used by 1M of angry developers, which have guns. Propel2 seems pretty stable, but still in development and currently it require that your installation must have minimum stability is alpha. Open your composer.json and write after config section:

"config": {
    "preferred-install": "dist"
},
"minimum-stability": "alpha"

Require this package with composer using the following command:

composer require propel/propel-laravel

After updating composer, add the ServiceProviders to the providers array in app/config/app.php

Propel\PropelLaravel\GeneratorServiceProvider::class,
Propel\PropelLaravel\RuntimeServiceProvider::class,

Next step is copy example config to your app/config directory.

php ./artisan vendor:publish --provider 'Propel\PropelLaravel\RuntimeServiceProvider'

Within provided config: schemas files are located into database/ folder, models are generated into app/models, migrations into app/database/migrations

You can now use Propel commands via artisan, for example:

php ./artisan propel:model:build

etc.

For new users of propel there is command creating sample schema.xml file:

php ./artisan propel:create-schema

If you are trying Propel2 on existing database — you can use reverse database command:

php ./artisan propel:database:reverse mysql

Since version 2.0.0-alpha5 there is awesome config node exclude_tables in config, which allows you to mix different project tables in one database.

Small hint: you can define namespace of all generated models in schema just as attribute of database:

<database … namespace="MyApp\Models">

Auth

Package contains Auth driver binding which allows to store user info and fetch (Auth::getUser()) current logged in user as propel model. You need to change two settings in config/auth.php:

'driver' => 'propel', // custom auth provider implemented in current package
…
'model' => 'MyApp\Models\User', // classname of user entity

After schema creating and model generation you must enhance your model to implement all laravel Auth requirements. Generic user model seems so:

use MyApp\Models\Base\User as BaseUser;
use Illuminate\Auth\Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\CanResetPassword;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable as AuthenticatableContract;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\CanResetPassword as CanResetPasswordContract;

class User extends BaseUser implements AuthenticatableContract, CanResetPasswordContract
{
    use Authenticatable, CanResetPassword;

    public function getAuthIdentifier()
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

Static Configuration

By default it builds configuration from main config app/config/propel.php in runtime but you may build static config app/propel/config.php by running

php ./artisan propel:convert-conf

Services

No service is provided.

Propel configures and manages itself by using static methods and its own service container, so no service is registered into Application. Actually, the GeneratorServiceProvider class injects Propel tasks into artisan tasks list with prefix propel: RuntimeServiceProvider class initializes Propel runtime configuration

Known issues

  • Cli command propel:database:reverse save reversed schema file to root of project
  • There isn't schema file and command for initial user creation, but it's in our roadmap and will arrive soon
