README

The storage glue of omnibase sites, framework-free (plan 0, rule 13): what any framework needs to map an omnibase site's database with Doctrine ORM and find the same tables - and Doctrine reading the structure described outside of it (audit "lesringostars face au master plan", R14; omnisense/omnibridge's Omnibridge\Schema).

• DeclarationDriver: a Doctrine mapping driver that builds a class's metadata from its declaration (Omnibridge\Schema\Declaration: what the class declares of its mapping, read without the ORM - or kept as data, a JSON file) instead of reading the attributes itself. It wraps the application's driver (an attribute driver, DoctrineBundle's chain), which still says which classes exist and maps a class the declarations do not hold. The metadata are those Doctrine's own attribute driver builds, to the property (the same calls on the ClassMetadata, in the same order): DeclarationDriverTest compares every class of the fixtures both ways, from the attributes and from declarations that went through JSON.
• MetadataDescription::of($entityManager): what an entity manager maps, in the neutral form (Omnibridge\Schema\Description): each class as its metadata hold it, and the tables its SchemaTool would create. DescriptionTest proves it equal to the description Omnibridge\Schema\Builder builds from the declarations alone; omnisense/omnibase's harness and lesringostars do the same over their entities, and lesringostars compares it with its database's information_schema.
• NamingStrategy: Doctrine's naming strategy answered by the family's naming (Omnibridge\Schema\CamelCaseNaming, or the Naming given): App\Entity\Thread\Tag is threadTag, App\Entity\User\Profile userProfile, Thread::$tags the join table thread_tags (thread_id, threadTag_id), a property its own name. Checked against every table and join table of lesringostars (tests/lesringostars-tables.json). omnibase's Base\Database\Mapping\NamingStrategy extends it: one place says how a class becomes a table.
• Types::register(): datetime and datetimetz written and read in UTC, utc_datetime and utc_datetime_immutable, as omnibase registers them.
• EntityManagers::create($connection, $paths): an entity manager with both, attribute mapping, PHP's native lazy objects; its configure: closure receives the configuration before the entity manager exists (a repository factory, the driver wrapped in a DeclarationDriver).

use Omnibridge\Doctrine\DeclarationDriver;
use Omnibridge\Doctrine\EntityManagers;

$entityManager = EntityManagers::create($connection, [$projectDir.'/src/Entity'], configure: function ($configuration) {
    $configuration->setMetadataDriverImpl(new DeclarationDriver($configuration->getMetadataDriverImpl()));
});

Requires omnisense/omnibridge (the Schema), doctrine/orm ^3.4 and doctrine/dbal ^4.2 (tested on 3.7.5 and 4.5.0).

glitchr/base-plugin's Doctrine hook (audited 2026-10-17)

The hook rewrites three files of doctrine/orm:

• ObjectHydrator: its anchor has been gone since doctrine/orm 3.6.7. The hook no longer patches anything there.
• SqlWalker (private made protected): not needed. omnibase's walkers use public methods only.
• ClassMetadataFactory (private made protected): still needed.
  • omnibase overrides getShortName(), private upstream, so that default discriminator maps are keyed by class names. On doctrine/orm as published, its schema creation stops on a duplicated discriminator entry (user).
  • It also reads $em, which a setter override could replace.

This package needs no patch: an application mapping the tables with its own entities and explicit discriminator maps runs on doctrine/orm as published.

Tests

docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/app -w /app lesringostars-laravel-app vendor/bin/phpunit

18 tests: the vocabulary against doctrine/orm's attributes (every parameter, default and repeatability; every mapping attribute upstream known), the DeclarationDriver's metadata against the attribute driver's for a joined and a single-table hierarchy, nested join tables, lifecycle callbacks (from the attributes, and from declarations gone through JSON), the description built without Doctrine against Doctrine's and the tables it creates, the naming over lesringostars' tables, the UTC types.
