What's a good PHP Active Record library?

Question

I've been using CodeIgniter for some quite time, and I've been extremely happy with its Active Record stuff. It's great to query the database with it.

Recently I've started a new project and I can't use such a framework anymore.

Is there a simple PHP Active Record library that does its job and gets out of the way (similar to CodeIgniter's version)?

Answer 1

Are you explicitly looking for an implementation of the Active Record pattern?

If not you might want to look into an object-relational mapper (ORM), such as Doctrine or Propel. See also this question on SO.

Answer 2

You may want to have a look at ADOdb.

Answer 3

There is http://phpactiverecord.org which can be plugged into any framework.
