Doctrine Helper

composer require ufo-tech/doctrine-helper

A set of ready-made traits, interfaces and classes for Doctrine that take the routine out of describing entities: primary keys (auto-increment, UUID, uniqid) and PHP enums as the MySQL ENUM type.

It is a plain library, not a Symfony bundle: it registers nothing in the container and has no configuration of its own. Traits are added to an entity with use; the enum type is registered in the Doctrine DBAL settings.

What is inside

Example

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Ufo\DoctrineHelper\Interfaces\IHaveUniqueUuid;
use Ufo\DoctrineHelper\Traits\UuidIdTrait;

#[ORM\Entity]
class Order implements IHaveUniqueUuid
{
    use UuidIdTrait;   // #[ORM\Id], string(36), unique, getId(): string

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->generateUniqueId();   // UUID v7
    }
}
