a customer has an existing database. The schema is often changed within the database itself (eg he adds a new column).
My task is to develop an admin area with symfony that automatically reacts on table schema changes without modifying the application code. Eg the customer adds a new column to table "MyEntity", and the application automatically generates a new column in the accordingly list view.
My approach is to dynamically map the table columns to the Entity class so that ALL Attributes and ALL Getters/Setters are generated dynamically from the table schema.
So is it possible to map the table columns in a Doctrine Entity without the use of Annotations or XML Files.
Something like:
class MyEntity{
public function generateMappingFromSchema($sTableName){...}
}
Please don't do that. Doctrine was not designed for such use case.
There is a library though you should check https://github.com/laravel-doctrine/fluent which basically is a mapping driver that allows you to manage your mappings in an Object Oriented approach. And there are other tools:
http://crud-admin-generator.com/
http://crudkit.com/
http://www.grocerycrud.com/
which are maybe better for that, I don't know.
But again, please don't do that . Do not allow the customer to modify the database schema or give them eg a phpMyAdmin which was designed for that.
