Jelly is a compact but powerful ORM library. It’s currently in beta however it is unit tested and well documented.
Notable Features
-
Small, clean, well-commented codebase
Compared with other libraries with similar feature sets, Jelly is relatively light-weight yet powerfully extenisble.
-
Top-to-bottom table column aliasing
All references to database columns and tables are made via their aliased names and converted transparently, on the fly.
-
Natural, model-oriented extension of Kohana's Query Builder
Handle models using a familiar, alias-aware API that is cleanly extensible per-model.
-
Extensible field architecture
All field data handling logic, including relationships is implemented in a
Field_*class, which can be extended to provide huge flexibility without changes to the core library. -
More to come
While our primary concern is to get the most important features right and stable, we have designed the API with our future plans in mind, including polymorphism and model behaviors.
