FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package doctrine-date-time-immutable-types

Doctrine DBAL DateTimeImmutable Types

In Doctrine DBAL 2.6 immutable DateTime types were added, so if you are using that version or newer, you no longer need this package. If you cannot use that version (it requires PHP 7.1), keep using this package (you can find even PHP 5.6 version in the older versions).

Why would I want to use immutable types?

All Doctrine date/time based types are using DateTime instances, which are mutable. This can lead to breaking encapsulation and therefore bugs. For two reasons:

1) You accidentally modify a date when you are doing some computation on it:

2) Or you do intentionally try to update it, which fails because Doctrine will not see this:

You can prevent this behaviour by returning a new instance (cloning) or using DateTimeImmutable (which returns a new instance when modified).

Installation

If you are using Symfony, you can use vasek-purchart/doctrine-date-time-immutable-types-bundle, which will take care of the integration.

Install package vasek-purchart/doctrine-date-time-immutable-types with Composer:

Then you just need to register the types you want:

Or you might want to override some of the default types to work with DateTimeImmutable instead of DateTime:

Usage

If you have overridden the default types you don't need to change any mappings.

If you have added the types you only have to suffix your fields with _immutable:
