For a project i'm working on I need a Object Relational Mapper. I found one which works with Lua: https://github.com/wesen1/LuaORM
This one is working with regular lua and not compatible with gLua. I want to try to convert this Library to a Garry's Mod compatible version. If you have any ideas or help, feel free.

Does this have any non-Lua dependencies or is it all pure Lua
worn vigil
Im not quite sure. I think its working with LuaSQL
And it currently only supports LuaSQL-MySQL
twin willow
I assume you want this
worn vigil
Yes, i just need MySQL support.
AND it doesnt has to be THIS ORM Library. I just didnt found any other one.

Yes I worked a lot with this
twin willow
Is there any reason as to why you need a different one?
worn vigil
I want to use Object Relational Mapping because of its ease of use
And its way safer because of abstraction
twin willow
I don't think I can help port its entirety to GLua
It uses some library that isn't pure Lua and I don't really have any knowledge to port that to work with gmod
worn vigil
This is a UI library for gmod which includes a ORM Mapper
The documentation of it is lacking though
And you have to compile it with laux
twin willow
And you have to compile it with laux
From looking at the github that seems easy enough?
Unless I'm reading it wrong
worn vigil
Yes, I dont think the compiling will be difficult
The problem im facing in my head is that I want to use this in a gamemode environment. Im not sure I can access addon functions from the gamemode? And also i just need a ORM Mapper and not a whole UI Library
twin willow
The problem im facing in my head is that I want to use this in a gamemode enviro...
Well it adds a global variable
The library
So you can just use that global variable inside the gamemode's Lua files
XeninUI.ORM
It's created in autorun and gamemode files are included after autorun
worn vigil
It's created in autorun and gamemode files are included after autorun
get it
twin willow
It's created in autorun and gamemode files are included after autorun
Well except for base gamemode, that's loaded before autorun, but every other gamemode is loaded after autorun
worn vigil
Im working in a sandbox derived custom gamemode so this should be no problem then
twin willow
Yeah
worn vigil
will try with this then. Thank you for your help.
