Eloquent Bridge

The Eloquent bridge wires up Laravel’s Eloquent ORM using Illuminate\Database\Capsule\Manager.

composer require fatjon-lleshi/antares-eloquent-bridge

The bridge is auto-discovered — no manual registration needed.

Configuration

Set these in your .env:

Variable	Default	Description
DB_DRIVER	mysql	Database driver (mysql, pgsql, sqlite)
DB_HOST	127.0.0.1	Database host
DB_PORT	3306	Database port
DB_DATABASE	“	Database name
DB_USERNAME	“	Database user
DB_PASSWORD	“	Database password
DB_CHARSET	utf8mb4	Connection charset
DB_COLLATION	utf8mb4_unicode_ci	Connection collation
DB_PREFIX	“	Table prefix

Usage

Define models as you would in any Laravel application:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class User extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = ['name', 'email'];
}

Inject Capsule or DatabaseManager via the container:

use Illuminate\Database\Capsule\Manager as Capsule;

class UserRepository
{
    public function __construct(
        private readonly Capsule $capsule,
    ) {}

    public function all(): array
    {
        return User::all()->toArray();
    }

    public function find(int $id): ?User
    {
        return User::find($id);
    }
}
