README

DOM ORM is a lightweight, zero-setup, XML-based persistence layer for small datasets in PHP projects. It stores entities in a single XML document, so you can start without a database server.

Features

• A very lightweight approach to persisting data into a single XML file.
• Supports exporting to headless-friendly formats such as JSON, YAML, XML
• Supports Versioning in Git or Mercurial out of the box.
• Handles concurrency with flock() when used with local file strage
• Supports local and remote storage via Flysystem (S3, Azure, Google Cloud, (S)FTP, etc.).
• Ships with a built-in in-memory Flysystem adapter for process-local XML storage.
• Supports one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many patterns.
• Supports AES-256-GCM field-level encryption via #[Sensitive] with searchable HMAC hashes.
• Supports schema evolution (rename/remove fragments) via #[FragmentMap] and CLI commands.
• Fully tested (Unit, Integration)
