Entity generator

Highly customizable (typed) entity generator from database. It can generate entities for whole database, table/view and from raw SQL query

---

Installation

$ composer require dodo-it/entity-generator

How to run:

   $config = new \DodoIt\EntityGenerator\Generator\Config([
       'path' =>  __DIR__ . '/Entities',
       'extends' => \Examples\Pdo\Entities\Entity::class,
       'namespace' => 'Examples\Pdo\Entities'
   ]);

   $pdo = new \PDO('mysql:dbname=example;host=127.0.0.1', 'root', '');

   $generatorFactory = new \DodoIt\EntityGenerator\Factory\GeneratorPdoFactory($pdo);
   $generator = $generatorFactory->create($config);
   $generator->generate();

What kind of entities can I get?

Tool is highly customizable and can generate various different entity types of which most interesting are:

• PHP 7.4 typed properties

class ArticleEntity extends YourBaseEntity
{
   public int $id;

   public ?string $title;

   public bool $published;

   public ?\DateTimeInterface $created_at;
}

• properties with phpdoc

class ArticleEntity extends YourBaseEntity
{

	/** @var int */
	protected $id;

	/** @var string */
	protected $title;

	/** @var bool */
	protected $published;

	/** @var \DateTimeInterface */
	protected $created_at;
}

• properties with getters and setters (methods body is customizable)

class ArticleEntity extends YourBaseEntity
{

	public function getId(): int
	{
		return $this->id;
	}


	public function setId(int $value): self
	{
		$this['id'] = $value;
		return $this;
	}


	public function getTitle(): ?string
	{
		return $this->title;
	}


	public function setTitle(?string $value): self
	{
		$this['title'] = $value;
		return $this;
	}


	public function getPublished(): bool
	{
		return $this->published;
	}


	public function setPublished(bool $value): self
	{
		$this['published'] = $value;
		return $this;
	}


	public function getCreatedAt(): ?\DateTimeInterface
	{
		return $this->created_at;
	}


	public function setCreatedAt(?\DateTimeInterface $value): self
	{
		$this['created_at'] = $value;
		return $this;
	}

• phpdoc properties

/**
 * @property int $id
 * @property string $title
 * @property int $published
 * @property \DateTimeInterface $created_at
 */
class ArticleEntity extends YourBaseEntity
{
}

• properties with phpdoc

class ArticleEntity extends YourBaseEntity
{
	/** @var int */
	public $id;

	/** @var string */
	public $title;

	/** @var bool */
	public $published;

	/** @var \DateTimeInterface */
	public $created_at;

• it can generate column constants (use generateColumnConstants option)

class ArticleEntity extends YourBaseEntity
{
    	public const TABLE_NAME = 'articles';
    	public const ID = 'id';
    	public const TITLE = 'title';
    	public const PUBLISHED = 'published';
    	public const CREATED_AT = 'created_at';

• almost any combination you can imagine, check src/Generator/Config.php for list of all options see example folder

You can add your own methods to entities and change getter/setter functions, they won't be overriden when regenerated if rewrite flag is set to false
