ATTENTION

This software is EXPERIMENTAL and not ready for production. It is just a proof of concept.

What is MySQL Workbench schema exporter?

The application is intended to create:

• Doctrine 1.0 YAML Schema
• Doctrine 2.0 YAML Schema and Annotation Classes
• Zend DbTable
• Zend Rest Controller
• Sencha ExtJS3 Model
• Propel XML Schema
• CakePHP (not implemented)

schema files from MySQL Workbench models (*.mwb). It is inspired by mysql-workbench-doctrine-plugin.

Doctrine behaviours

Support for behaviours is implemented for Doctrine1. Use the comment fields in tables.

{d:actAs}
  actAs:
    timestampable:
      [..]
{/d:actAs}

Foreign key name

To replace relations name by the name of the foreign key, start the foreign key name with "d:".

Command Line Interface (CLI)

There is a new CLI to simplify the export process named export.php, you can look under the cli folder. The CLI has feature to customize export configuration before exporting. By default, CLI application will use config file export.json located in the current directory to supply the parameter if it find it. To disable this behaviour, see the option below.

The syntax of CLI:

php cli/export.php [options] FILE [DEST]

Where:

• options:
  • --export=type, choose the result of the export, currently available types:
    • doctrine1-yaml, Doctrine 1.0 YAML schema
    • doctrine2-yaml, Doctrine 2.0 YAML schema
    • doctrine2-annotation, Doctrine 2.0 Annotation classes (default)
    • propel1-xml, Propel XML schema
    • zend-dbtable, Zend DbTable
    • zend-rest-controller, Zend Rest Controller
    • sencha-extjs3, Sencha ExtJS3 Model
  • --config=file, read export parameters from file (in JSON format)
  • --saveconfig, save export parameters to file export.json, later can be used as value for --config=file
  • --list-exporter, show all available exporter
  • --no-auto-config, disable automatic config file lookup
  • --zip, compress the result
  • --help, show the usage (or suppress any parameters)
• FILE, the mwb file to export
• DEST, the destination directory (optional), if not specified current directory assumed

Sample usage:

php cli/export.php --export=doctrine1 example/data/test.mwb ./generated
php cli/export.php --zip example/data/test.mwb

Sample export paramaters (JSON) for doctrine2-annotation:

{
    "export": "doctrine2-annotation",
    "zip": false,
    "dir": "temp",
    "params": {
        "backupExistingFile": true,
        "skipPluralNameChecking": false,
        "enhanceManyToManyDetection": true,
        "bundleNamespace": "",
        "entityNamespace": "",
        "repositoryNamespace": "",
        "useAnnotationPrefix": "ORM\\",
        "useAutomaticRepository": true,
        "indentation": 4,
        "filename": "%entity%.%extension%",
        "quoteIdentifier": false
    }
}

Exporter Options

General options

General options applied to all formatter.

• indentation

• skipPluralNameChecking

  Skip checking the plural name of model and leave as is, useful for non English table names. Default is false.

• backupExistingFile

  If target already exists create a backup before replacing the content. Default is true.

• enhanceManyToManyDetection

  If enabled, many to many relations between tables will be added to generated code. Default is true.

Option list for Doctrine 1.0

• extendTableNameWithSchemaName

  Include schema name beside the table name. Default is false.

• {d:externalRelations}

Option list for Doctrine 2.0 YAML

• useAutomaticRepository

  Automatically generate entity repository class name.

• bundleNamespace

  The global namespace prefix for entity class name.

• entityNamespace

  The entity namespace. Default is Entity.

• repositoryNamespace

  The namespace prefix for entity repository class name. For this configuration to apply, useAutomaticRepository must be set to true.

• extendTableNameWithSchemaName

Option list for Doctrine 2.0 Annotation

• useAnnotationPrefix

  Doctrine annotation prefix. Default is ORM\.

• useAutomaticRepository

• skipGetterAndSetter

• quoteIdentifier

  If this option is enabled, all table names and column names will be quoted using backtick (`). Usefull when the table name or column name contains reserved word. Default is false.

Option list for Propel Xml

Example

<?php

// enable autoloading of classes
$libDir = __DIR__.'/lib';
require_once($libDir.'/MwbExporter/SplClassLoader.php');

$classLoader = new SplClassLoader();
$classLoader->setIncludePath($libDir);
$classLoader->register();

// create bootstrap
$bootstrap = new \MwbExporter\Bootstrap();

// define a formatter and do configuration
$formatter = $bootstrap->getFormatter('doctrine2-annotation');
$formatter->setup(array());

// specify the workbench document to load, output directory, and storage type (zip or file)
$mwbfile = 'myDatabaseModel.mwb';
$outDir = getcwd();
$storage = 'zip';
// load document and export
$document = $bootstrap->export($formatter, $mwbfile, $outDir, $storage);

// show the output
echo sprintf("Saved to %s.\n\n", $document->getWriter()->getStorage()->getResult());
