Cycle ORM VS wordpress-interop

Thanks. It's a small custom framework built from libraries, some custom, some third party.

- File based HTTP router running on top of https://frankenphp.dev/

- ORM/SQL with: https://github.com/cycle/orm but this is preference. Anything works. From SQL builders to ORMs.

I'll try to explain their form handling:

Forms almost always POST to their own GET URL.

If you GET /user/save you'll get back HTML and `` to build the form.<p>If you POST /user/save you're expected to pass the entire form data PLUS an "operation" parameter which is used by the backend to decide what should be done and returned.<p>For example if user clicks [add new user] button, the "operation" parameter has value of "btnNewUser.click".<p>Why pass operation parameter? Because business forms can have more than just a [submit] button.<p>For example, there might be a datagrid filter value being changed (operation: "txtFilter.change"), or perhaps a dropdown search to select a city name from a large list (operation: "textCitySearch.change"), it can be a postal code to address lookup (operation: "txtPostalCode.change"), etc.<p>On the backend, the pseudocode looks somewhat like this but it's cleaner/safer because of encapsulation, validation, error handling, data sanitization, model binding and csrf/xss protection:<p><pre><code> function user_save($operation) {

From the same developers :

PHP framework : https://spiral.dev/

ORM library : https://cycle-orm.dev/

The language is not that important, if you know Php, you learn another one in weeks (not you, Rust!) important and source of income is the knowledge of Design patterns and for what implementation to use which specific Pattern. PHP have a great ecosystem regarding design patterns. As there are the psr. Mostly, the Frameworks implement these recommendations: - dependency injection in Symfony, yii and spiral - Data Mapper implemented in doctrine or in cycle-orm.

Either use PDO directly, use Doctrine DBAL (not ORM) or if you need an ORM, check out Cycle ORM which is completely dynamic and supports configuration on-the-fly.

Doctrine is my preferred ORM, being both powerful and battle-tested. There's a relatively new one lately called Cycle but I don't know anything about it other than that it's also a datamapper like Doctrine. Looks pretty decent from the docs tho.

It uses the (H)MVC model, anti-leak DI container, DataMapper ORM (https://github.com/cycle/orm), Symfony components, and RoadRunner (https://github.com/spiral/roadrunner) as an app server (which we also created).

There is also wordpress-interop on the doctrine side: https://github.com/williarin/wordpress-interop

Or alternatively - there are php packages for working directly with a wp database outside of wordpress: https://github.com/williarin/wordpress-interop, https://github.com/corcel/corcel

Feedback would be appreciated. Repo link: williarin/wordpress-interop
