The Propel ORM's installation instructions say that you can setup the ORM by cloning its Git repository. I have done that but I have no idea how to include Propel into my project.
Since I'm not using Composer, I don't have an autoload.php file to include, and src/Propel/Runtime/Propel.php is clearly not the only thing that I need to include, although some have suggested that it is.
Does anyone know how to include Propel without using Composer's autoload.php?
Yes. Propel comes with its own autoloader. You can use it in the steps.
require '/absolute/path/to/Propel.php;Propel::init('/path/to/yourdbname-conf.php);where you'd name is the value of the "name" attribute of the database element in the schema.xml file.set_include_path('/path/to/folder/for/generated/models' . PATH_SEPARATOR . get_include_path();
