array	$attr	The model attributes.

Returns

array

create()

create(string  $model, array  $attr = array()) : object

Creates and saves in db an instance of the model.

This object will be generated with mock attributes.

Parameters

string	$model	The model class name.
array	$attr	The model attributes.

Returns

object

pending()

pending() : array

Return an array of objects to be saved.

Returns

array

isPending()

isPending(object  $object) : boolean

Is the object going to be saved?

Parameters

object

$object

The model instance.

Returns

boolean

saved()

saved() : array

Return an array of saved objects.

Returns

array

isSaved()

Is the object saved or will be saved?

Parameters

object

$object

The model instance.

Returns
