Romans Malinovskis on Oct. 24^th 2016 2:00:53 AM
User-defined query template

no

How to invoke db-vendor-specific extensions?
yes SQL - Query Builder.
Map Entity to SubQuery
- table = new Expression(..)
Map property to expression
- (couldn't find docs)
Map field to sub-query on related entity (Client.balance = Client->orders->sum(total))
- (couldn't find docs)
Entity to join multiple tables (adding new record populates both tables)
no No native support.
Domain Model Criteria
no Only for specific query: User::find()->byEmail('...')->active()->one()
Expression-based condition
no Only for query: User::find()->andWhere('...')->all()
Criteria Compliance (new record must match condition)
no
Dynamic criteria
no Only Querying: User::find()->where(['a' => '1', 'b' => true])->all();
Reference domain-model field in query
no Field is class property.
Use Domain logic in multi-record update
no
Admin extends User, adds criteria (is_admin=1)
no Can be done as wrapper: User::findAdmin(..) or custom CDbCriteria
Extend model, add Join (Disjoined SubTypes)
no
One-to-many traversal strategy
Uses classical eager/lazy loading approach. with() can help pre-fetch the data for related entities.
Many-to-Many
yes relations() method of an entity can define.
Cross-Persistence traversal
- No docs.
Persistence-specific hooks (to modify Query)
- (no docs)
Implementation Strategy
Widgets must specify data types manually, while dataProvider is used for fetching the data stream.
field storing reference to another Model can map into DropDown
no
UI Widget can get Field type, default value, caption, hint
- (no docs)
Same model, multiple persistences
- (no docs)
Deep Many-to-Many traversal.
- $book->author->address->street;
UI Widget can fetch list of Model Fields
- \yii\grid\GridView, \yii\widgets\ListView
