I want to continue the project as a new repo

Open mahfuz10 opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

It looks like, this project is inactive for more than 1 year. I really like this library, very straight forward, minimal features. Only missing part is the migration. I am not here to argue about anything.

What I want to do is, I want to continue the project as a new repo in github.

Is anybody here to help me to make decision.

  1. Is version 1.2.0 (latest version) is stable enough to use in large scale application? I mean, can there be any known security issue?

  2. Do I need to change directory structure? suppose, I convert to psr-4. Is current directory structure will reduce performance?

Please share what you think. Thanks.

If you like to create, say, a 2.0 version, then I think it would be beneficial to keep it in this repo.

That said, feel free to start a fork, and maybe eventually open a PR to get it merged to the main repo.

But beware, creating a library might not be that hard, but maintaining is no trivial task by any means. And you wouldn't be the first to attempt to give this library a new, without success.

I've done a lot of work on this project, but I didn't want to move solely on my own, which caused development to get stuck on waiting for reviews. By now I'm not using the library anymore, so there's no value for me in continuing development, but I still think that the simplicity of this active record implementation made it very easy to work with, and easy to integrate in existing projects. So for that reason I'd like to see this project get a new life.

Some useful pending changes you can find here; #424 #430

Hi @koenpun, Thanks for sharing your opinion.

I did not fork this repo. I cloned and uploaded it in my github account. So, I got all commits, but here is no issues, no PR.

I am building an MVC framework (https://github.com/iceboxphp) and using ActiveRecord in my project.

  1. Can you please tell me, how can I use those PR #424 and #430 in my project. If I fork from this repo, will I get those PR from this repo?
  2. Have you any idea, where can I get official documentation for this project (what is hosted in http://www.phpactiverecord.org/ and in https://www.phpactiverecord.xyz/)?
