#Getting Started

Many times WP_Query, WP_User_Query, WP_Term_Query, and WP_Comment_Query are very useful over the TypeRocket ORM. These classes have many hooks and are integrated with other plugins. However, it would be nice if you could use both these WordPress core classes and the TypeRocket ORM.

The \TypeRocket\Utility\QueryCaster is just the tool you are looking for.

#Posts

Cast the results of a WP_Query to any WPPost model. For example, the Post model.

$results = \TypeRocket\Utility\QueryCaster::posts(
    \App\Models\Post::class, 
    ['post_status' => 'publish']
);

#Terms

Cast the results of a WP_Term_Query to any WPTerm model. For example, the Category model.

use App\Models\Category;

$results = \TypeRocket\Utility\QueryCaster::terms(
    \App\Models\Category::class, 
    ['hide_empty' => false]
);

#Users

Cast the results of a WP_User_Query to any WPUser model. For example, the User model.

$results = \TypeRocket\Utility\QueryCaster::users(
    \App\Models\User::class, 
    ['role' => 'administrator']
);

#Comments

Cast the results of a WP_Comment_Query to any WPComment model. For example, the Comment model.

$results = \TypeRocket\Utility\QueryCaster::comments(
    \App\Models\Comment::class, 
    ['post_id' => 1]
);
