Is this project no longer in active development?

tpizza commented 6 years ago

23 days later...I'd say DOA

fh-thudson commented 6 years ago

dang, I am starting a new project today. It needs a really nice API. Guess I am still going with my old stack. Propel ORM2.0 and SlimAPIFramwork.

I just can't get this project to do migrations since the videos are so old.

up() {

return [
  this.addColumn({"name":"ez_id","type":"int"})
];

}

Migrate just doesn't work. I guess I can build my own database and just reverse it.

Not sure if this'll help, but while the videos are outdated and i got stuck once of twice while following... the Wiki is pretty good still.

See: https://github.com/keithwhor/nodal/wiki/Migration-Examples

Looking at that example you'll see it's not an object thats being passed in.

this.addColumn("employees", "address1", "string", {"nullable":false})

Hey everyone! The project is not dead, and is being actively maintained and used to power parts of StdLib's (https://stdlib.com) infrastructure. We'll aim to be more responsive in the future, but the bulk of our focus will be on StdLib and helping developers build APIs there.

Thanks @limitlis for the fix there as well!

I was able to dive into the framework code and find that info. It did work. Now I am just working on relationships and tieing them into each other.

I am a PHP guy but I wanted to move away from PHP. My normal ORM is Propel2.0.

The project I am starting today is going to need to be built for massive scale.

fh-thudson commented 6 years ago

I'm just really struggling with basic stuff like joins not working. Relationships to being defined even though I'm defining them. So clearly JS isn't for me.

jacoblee93 commented 6 years ago

Hey @fh-thudson, maybe I can help? What sort of joins are you trying to do?

Might also be helpful to separate this into another issue.
