Pattern ORMs (eg: Eloquent) and Data Mapper ORMs (eg: Doctrine). What is generally recommended ? I feel both are kinda same..If any body can share a link with some practical usecases/examples comparing them...That would be helpful..Have done lot of searches but unable to differentiate practically, and nowadays StackOverflow does not accept "opinionated" questions.
As far as I can tell, ORMs like doctrine keep the models as plain simple classes, a separate Manager is used to query, persist them to the DB, etc. Active Record has the models subclass a base Model class that has the methods to manage the queries and persistence. I prefer Doctrine because it keeps separation of concerns, makes it cleaner. In Eloquent everything is amalgamated into the Model class.
