Installation Steps

1. Create your database and tables, if you haven’t already. (remember use Rails’ conventions for table and column names)
2. Download recent ActiveRecord release or

   svn co http://lukebaker.org/svn/repos/activerecord/trunk/ activerecord

3. Untar into a models/ directory within your project or move checked out directory activerecord/ into your models/ directory.
4. There should now be a models/activerecord/ directory, edit models/activerecord/config.php to your liking.
5. Run models/activerecord/generate.php
6. This should have have generated model stubs inside your models/ directory. Edit these model files to tell ActiveRecord about the relationships between tables. Do not edit *Base.php files as they get overwritten every time you run generate.php
7. Use ActiveRecord, by including the models that you want to use:

   require_once ‘models/Post.php’;
