Use WordPress backend with Laravel or any PHP application

**A collection of Model classes that allows you to get data directly from a WordPress database.** [](https://github.com/corcel/corcel/actions) [](https://packagist.org/packages/jgrossi/corcel) [](https://github.com/jgrossi/corcel/releases) [](https://codeclimate.com/github/corcel/corcel/coverage) [](https://codeclimate.com/github/corcel/corcel/maintainability) Corcel is a collection of PHP classes built on top of [Eloquent ORM](https://laravel.com/docs/master/eloquent) (from [Laravel](http://laravel.com) framework), that provides a fluent interface to connect and get data directly from a [WordPress](http://wordpress.org) database. You can use WordPress as the backend (administration panel) or CMS, for inserting posts, custom types, etc, and any other PHP app in the other side querying those data (as a Model layer). It's easier to use Corcel with Laravel, but you're free to use it with any PHP project that uses Composer.
