Lynx ORM|DBAL

Documentation [ru] :: Vagrant :: Benchmark

Yet another ORM\DBAL written in Zephir language.

I like Doctrine 2 but I dislike Phalcon 2 ORM* and I've created this project to incubate a new ORM in Zephir Language to achieve the best performance.

Idea

• Write ORM|DBAL and sublibs with max functions support
• Performance tuning (will start doing it after beta release)

Why it would be great?

• Small but support everything
• Speed (because it's built in C with Zephir)

On What ideas it would be based

• Annotation
  • ReflectionClassParser
    • RegexDocParser
    • LineParser (will be soon)
  • PHPFileParser (will be soon)
    • RegexDocParser
    • LineParser (will be soon)
• ORM (Object relation mapper)
  • Hydration (Mapping)
  • EntityManager
  • UnitOfWork
  • QueryBuilder
• DBAL (Database abstraction layer)
• StdLib
  • Collections
  • EventManager (ported from Phalcon)
  • Hydrators (will be soon)

System Requirements

To build it you need the following requirements:

• g++ >= 4.4/clang++ >= 3.x/vc++ 9
• gnu make 3.81 or later
• autoconf 2.31 or later
• automake 1.14 or later
• PHP development headers and tools

If you're using Ubuntu, you can install the required packages this way:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git gcc make re2c php5 php5-json php5-dev libpcre3-dev

Installation

You can build extension and install it like:

git clone https://github.com/lynx/lynx.git
git submodule update --init
cd ext
./install
echo extension=lynx.so > /etc/php5/fpm/conf.d/lynx.ini
echo extension=lynx.so > /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/lynx.ini

Don't forget to restart your php-fpm:

sudo service php5-fpm restart
