README

This package was created for developers using the doctrine/doctrine-orm-module to provide a CLI command for generating custom repository getter methods. Adds:

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait

to the doctrine-orm-module cli.

Introduction

Ever worked with Doctrine custom repositories and suffered through

/** @var ExampleRepository $exampleRepo */
$exampleRepo = $this->em->getRepository(Example::class);

$exampleRepo->myMethod();

just to get autocomplete in your IDE?

With this package you can run

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait

To create a trait that will simplify working with custom repositories. Just use the trait it creates to get the magic

use CustomRepositoryAwareTrait;

public function test()
{
    $result = $this->getExampleRepository()->myMethod();
}

Setup

You can start with

composer require curtiskelsey/doctrine-repo-helper

then be sure to add

'DoctrineRepoHelper'

to your Zend application's list of loaded modules.

Options

Several options are provided to allow control over the trait created and what entities it serves:

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait --help

Description:
  Generate a repository helper trait

  orm:generate-repository-trait [options]

Help:
  The generate repository trait command creates a trait that will allow your development
                  environment to autocomplete custom repository methods

Custom output directory

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait -o My/Special/Path

Custom trait class name and namespace

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait -c SpecialName --namespace=Special\\Namespace

Custom entity manager accessor

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait --em-getter=getMyEntityManager()

Overwrite existing trait file

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait -f

Filter the entity repositories used within the generated trait

php public/index.php orm:generate-repository-trait --filter=Cast
# Only inserts repo getters for entities where "Cast" is found withing the FQCN string
