Simple(r) ORM for PHP [closed]

Answer 1

I used ADODB Active Record: http://phplens.com/lens/adodb/docs-active-record.htm, it isn't too heavy.

Then again, if you want to make a light one, why not build your own?

Answer 2

Why not try plain vanilla PDO (or mysqli if you work with MySQL and don't like PDO)? It's not exactly a full-blown ORM, but it allows fetching query results directly into an object. And it doesn't get any more simple, lightweight and zero-configuration than that. :)

Answer 3

For a lightweight solution, phpDataMapper might be a good choice.

Answer 4

Ive just started to use Zend Framework and im pretty happy with it.

Answer 5

I've used CoughPHP in the past and been pretty happy with it's simplicity.

Answer 6

Doctrine and Propel are good, but can't say they are "simplest". Here two alternatives - PHP Active Record , Outlet PHP ORM

Hope one of them helps
