FullMapper README

This is a purely experimental attempt to build a minimalistic consistent ORM on base of DataObjects and pieces of dm-core. Make the API small, but without silly bugs and easy to extend and hack.

TODO

1. include FM::Resource into modules as well as classes
2. specify indexes separately of properties
3. extract all the additionaly params and lazy naming conventions into separate modules
4. keep all globals-level configuartions in a separate files
5. fully map instances and collections into memory: remove the need in manual #reload
6. pluggable strategies for caching, sharding and delayed execution.
7. minimal public API. E.g. do not use attribute_set when redefining accessor, rather call super and use an anonymous module with the default definition to catch the value.
8. consistent chainable collections and kick-methods.
9. cache invalidation api for the raw-sql interface (specify how to invalidate sparse identity/collection maps when sql is executed). apply for any kind of backend as well.
10. extensible consistent polymorphism features:
    • polymorphic instances
    • polymorphic associations
    • effective "late binding" proxy entities for partial polymorphic relations (people and projects can host activities, folders, documents etc.)
11. chainable storages (ram <-> memcache <-> backend1 <-> backend2)
