Benefits for MVC frameworks
Supported MVC frameworks
MVC Framework | Suported ORM Frameworks |
---|---|
Symfony (all versions) | Propel, Doctrine, Doctrine2 |
Zend Framework (and Zend Fw2) | Propel, Doctrine, Doctrine2 |
Laravel | Eloquent, Propel, Doctrine, Doctrine2 |
CakePHP | CakePHP |
Any other MVC | Propel, Doctrine, Doctrine2 |
Almost all Skipper features are MVC independent, so it doesn't matter which MVC framework you use as long as the ORM framework is supported by Skipper. Simply choose "Without MVC" option when creating (or importing) your project.
On the other hand, Skipper includes support for the biggest MVC frameworks and there is an added value for them. For example, Skipper offers better and faster files scanning (because of knowledge of directory structure), an extension in export formats (because some MVC frameworks use slightly different naming convention), etc.
Supported ORM frameworks
Import or creation of a new project with required ORM and MVC framework is easy with Skipper wizards. In the first step you choose ORM and in the second step your MVC framework. This ensures correct output format for following definitions export.
