# Eloquent Wrapper for WordPress

This is a library package to use Laravel's [Eloquent ORM](http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/eloquent) with WordPress.

## Package Installation

To install this package, edit your `composer.json` file:

```js
{
"require": {
"tareq1988/wp-eloquent": "dev-master"
}
}
```

Now run:

`$ composer install`

# Usage Example

## Basic Usage

```php

$db = \WeDevs\ORM\Eloquent\Database::instance();

var_dump( $db->table('users')->find(1) );
var_dump( $db->select('SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE id = ?', [1]) );
var_dump( $db->table('users')->where('user_login', 'john')->first() );

// OR with DB facade
use \WeDevs\ORM\Eloquent\Facades\DB;

var_dump( DB::table('users')->find(1) );
var_dump( DB::select('SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE id = ?', [1]) );
var_dump( DB::table('users')->where('user_login', 'john')->first() );
```

## Creating Models For Custom Tables
You can use custom tables of the WordPress databases to create models:

```php
table ) ){
$prefix = $this->getConnection()->db->prefix;

return $prefix . $this->table;
}

return parent::getTable();
}

}
```

### Retrieving All Rows From A Table

```php
$users = $db->table('users')->get();

foreach ($users as $user) {
var_dump($user->display_name);
}
```

Here `users` is the table name **without prefix**. The prefix will be applied automatically.

### Other Examples

- [Queries](http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/queries)
- [Eloquent ORM](http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/eloquent)

## Writing a Model

```php
use \WeDevs\ORM\Eloquent\Model as Model;

class Employee extends Model {

}

var_dump( Employee::all()->toArray() ); // gets all employees
var_dump( Employee::find(1) ); // find employee with ID 1
```
The class name `Employee` will be translated into `PREFIX_employees` table to run queries. But as usual, you can override the table name.

### In-built Models for WordPress

- Post
- Comment
- Post Meta
- User
- User Meta

```php
use WeDevs\ORM\WP\Post as Post;

var_dump( Post::all() ); //returns only posts with WordPress post_type "post"
```

#### Filter `Post` by `post_status` and `post_type`
```php
use WeDevs\ORM\WP\Post as Post;
var_dump(Post::type('page')->get()->toArray()); // get pages
var_dump(Post::status('publish')->get()->toArray()); // get posts with publish status
var_dump(Post::type('page')->status('publish')->get()->toArray()); // get pages with publish status
```

## How it Works

- Eloquent is mainly used here as the query builder
- [WPDB](http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb) is used to run queries built by Eloquent
- Hence, we have the benfit to use plugins like `debug-bar` or `query-monitor` to get SQL query reporting.
- It doesn't create any extra MySQL connection

## Minimum Requirement
- PHP 5.6.4+
- WordPress 4.0+
