Hi.

Since there isn't much documentation for Vokuro on Github or the docs.phalcon.io so i'll ask here.

I don't understand how Vokuro get it's information from the database, there must be some kind of queries in it.

https://github.com/phalcon/vokuro/blob/master/app/models/Users.php for example has multiple hasMany() functions but that doesn't make sense to me at all.

$user = Users::findFirstById($id);

i guess it does something under the hood, but i don't get it.

help.

Read up on models.

That helped a little :) makes more sense, but then.. how about findFirstById() or

$confirmation = EmailConfirmations::findFirstByCode($code);

How do they "ByCode" ?

This is called a 'Finder':

$confirmation = EmailConfirmations::findFirstByCode($code);

It's the same as:

$confirmation = EmailConfirmations::findFirst(array("code = ?0", 'bind' => array($code)));

Model EmailConfirmations has a field called 'code'

Okay.

So if i have a public variable called $status Can i also do "findFirstByStatus()" ?

Not exactly, those must be fields in the mapped table, not attributes of the class.

Okay.

So if i have a public variable called $status Can i also do "findFirstByStatus()" ?
