Eloquent (illuminate/database)
PHP database toolkit with a query builder, an ActiveRecord-style ORM and a schema builder, distributed as the database component of Laravel.
Eloquent is the ActiveRecord-style ORM inside illuminate/database, a PHP database toolkit that also provides a query builder and a schema builder and serves as the database layer of Laravel. The package can also run outside the framework through its Capsule helper, which its readme describes. The Eloquent documentation in the Laravel docs describes how the ORM behaves.
