  1. Data Sources
  2. Provided data sources

Doctrine

This is the official documentation of the forestadmin/laravel-forestadmin v2+ and forestadmin/symfony-forestadmin PHP agents.

The Doctrine data source allows importing collections from a Doctrine instance.

To make everything work as expected, you need to install the package forestadmin/php-datasource-doctrine.

Note that:

  • Doctrine relationships will be respected

use ForestAdmin\AgentPHP\Agent\Utils\Env;
use ForestAdmin\AgentPHP\DatasourceDoctrine\DoctrineDatasource;
use ForestAdmin\SymfonyForestAdmin\Service\ForestAgent;

return static function (ForestAgent $forestAgent) {

    $forestAgent->addDatasource(
        new DoctrineDatasource(
            $forestAgent->getEntityManager(),
            ['url' => Env::get('DATABASE_URL')]
        )
    )
        ->build();
};

Enable support of live queries

You can enable this feature by setting a connection name (works as an identifier) when creating your datasource. This connection name will be reflected on the UI when configuring a LiveQuery component, it should have a clear meaning for your Forest users.

By enabling this feature, users with the required permission level can create Live Query components (, and ), allowing them to create more sophisticated requests to your database, by leveraging the underlying query language, SQL in this case.
