Aura.Sql
A PHP library extending PDO with lazy connections, array quoting, fetch helpers, and a profiler.
What is Aura.Sql?
Aura.Sql is a PHP library that extends the native PDO (PHP Data Objects) to provide enhanced database access functionality. It solves the problem of verbose and repetitive database interaction code by adding convenience methods like array quoting, simplified prepared statements, and fetch helpers, while maintaining full drop-in compatibility with existing PDO-based code.
PHP developers working on applications that require database interactions and want to reduce boilerplate code without abandoning the standard PDO interface. It's particularly useful for those managing multiple database connections or needing query profiling.
Developers choose Aura.Sql because it enhances PDO with practical features like lazy connections, array quoting for IN clauses, and a perform() method for easier prepared statements, all while remaining a seamless replacement that doesn't break existing type-hinted PDO code.
