WordPress/WooCommerce Integration

This release specifically addresses issues found during integration with Quantum ORM for WordPress/WooCommerce projects, making Bob ORM a perfect fit for WordPress plugin development.

[2.0.0] - 2025-01-22

Added

• Complete ORM Layer - Bob is now a full-featured ORM, not just a query builder
• Model System - ActiveRecord pattern implementation with Bob\Database\Model base class
• Relationships - Full support for HasOne, HasMany, BelongsTo, BelongsToMany
• Eager Loading - Prevent N+1 queries with with() method
• Collections - Powerful collection class for result sets

[1.1.0] - 2025-09-13

Changed

• BREAKING: All query methods now return stdClass objects instead of arrays for consistency
  • Connection::select() now returns array of stdClass objects
  • Connection::selectOne() now returns ?object instead of ?array
  • Builder::get() continues to return stdClass objects (unchanged)
  • Builder::first() continues to return ?stdClass (unchanged)

Why This Change?

Previously, there was an inconsistency:

• Query builder methods (table()->get()) returned objects
• Direct select methods (select()) returned arrays

Now both return objects, providing:

• Consistent API across all query methods
• Cleaner syntax with object property access ($user->name vs $user['name'])
• Better IDE autocomplete support
• Alignment with modern PHP practices

Migration Guide

If you were using direct select() or selectOne() methods:

// Before (arrays)
$results = $connection->select('SELECT * FROM users');
echo $results[0]['name'];

// After (objects)
$results = $connection->select('SELECT * FROM users');
echo $results[0]->name;

Query builder usage remains unchanged:

// Still works the same
$users = $connection->table('users')->get();
echo $users[0]->name;

Documentation Updates

• Updated all documentation to reflect object return types
• Fixed examples to use object property syntax
• Added notes about the consistency improvement
