How to use own setter/getter with Idiorm/Paris?

Question

I have a model (php class) and a table in my database. When I try to find_many without a where clause, it finds all database entries. And it creates a model for each of the database entries. But these models are empty and have no data assigned because I have my own setter/getter for my model.

<?php

class City extends Model {

    private $id;
    private $idOwm;
    private $idBla;
    private $name;
    private $longitude;
    private $latitude;
    private $country;

    public function data() {
        return $this->has_many('Data', 'idCity');
    }

    public function getId() {
        return $this->id;
    }

    public function setId($id) {
        $this->id = $id;
    }

    public function getIdOwm() {
        return $this->idOwm;
    }

    public function setIdOwm($idOwm) {
        $this->idOwm = $idOwm;
    }

    public function getIdBla() {
        return $this->idBla;
    }

    public function setIdBla($idBla) {
        $this->idBla = $idBla;
    }

    public function getName() {
        return $this->name;
    }

    public function setName($name) {
        $this->name = $name;
    }

    public function getLongitude() {
        return $this->longitude;
    }

    public function setLongitude($longitude) {
        $this->longitude = $longitude;
    }

    public function getLatitude() {
        return $this->latitude;
    }

    public function setLatitude($latitude) {
        $this->latitude = $latitude;
    }

    public function getCountry() {
        return $this->country;
    }

    public function setCountry($country) {
        $this->country = $country;
    }
}

$cities = Model::factory('City')->find_many();

$cities is an array with many models of type City.

How can I use my own setter/getter with Idiorm/Paris? Is this possible or will I have to do some model logic in a different way?

You can't do this as Idiorm relies on the __set() and __get() magic methods - if you include proper class properties of the same name then those magic methods will never be accessed. See the PHP manual^{docs link} for more detail on this.

To get your IDE working you can probably use PHPDoc @property comments^{docs link}, which is designed for this purpose. I don't actually use PHPStorm, but from what I can see in its documentation it does understand PHPDoc comments and can use them for understanding code structure.

So your code would look like this:

/**
 * @property int $id
 * @property int $idOwm
 * @property int $idBla
 * @property string $name
 * @property string $longitude
 * @property string $latitude
 * @property string $country
 */
class City extends Model {

    public function data() {
        return $this->has_many('Data', 'idCity');
    }

    public function getId() {
        return $this->id;
    }

    ...
}

This other stackoverflow question and answer suggests that this will work in Netbeans: https://stackoverflow.com/a/15160464/461813

As soon as I remove my private/protected class variables at the top of my models it works.

<?php

class City extends Model {

    public function data() {
        return $this->has_many('Data', 'idCity');
    }

    public function getId() {
        return $this->id;
    }

    public function setId($id) {
        $this->id = $id;
    }

    public function getIdOwm() {
        return $this->idOwm;
    }

    public function setIdOwm($idOwm) {
        $this->idOwm = $idOwm;
    }

    public function getIdBla() {
        return $this->idBla;
    }

    public function setIdBla($idBla) {
        $this->idBla = $idBla;
    }

    public function getName() {
        return $this->name;
    }

    public function setName($name) {
        $this->name = $name;
    }

    public function getLongitude() {
        return $this->longitude;
    }

    public function setLongitude($longitude) {
        $this->longitude = $longitude;
    }

    public function getLatitude() {
        return $this->latitude;
    }

    public function setLatitude($latitude) {
        $this->latitude = $latitude;
    }

    public function getCountry() {
        return $this->country;
    }

    public function setCountry($country) {
        $this->country = $country;
    }
}

$cities = Model::factory('City')->find_many();

I guess it is really handy to have the variables there to use code generation of PHPStorm, but then you should delete them.
