This is an approach to Object-Relational Mapping (Active Record) written in PHP5. There are no XML config files, or assumptions about table and field names. It's a tool to keep you from repeatedly writing mindless SQL join queries and other trivially common things.

Mar 17 - I'd love to make ORMer less reliant on dbFacile. I can see that as a hindrance to widespread adoption.

Goals

• Automatic relationship discovery through foreign keys (almost complete)
• Give the coder the ability to specify relationships manually if you don't want to use foreign keys
• No assumptions about your table or field names
• No requirements about your table or field names; use your own conventions
• Simplest possible way of adding extra clauses to relation queries: method chaining (see examples)
• Step out of the way when you need to flex SQL skills that ORMer can't hack
• Give as much of an illusion as possible that you're not dealing with a database
