In this tutorial, we’re going to explain how to create a behavior for the Phalcon’s ORM. Its goal is keep track of data changed by users on specific models. This behavior is often known as Blameable.

This tutorial is oriented to an intermediate/advanced audience. We’ll explain how to create a custom model’s initializer via annotations that can be easily modified/adapted to initialize collections, plugins, etc.

UPDATE: Although write Phalcon in Assembler may be challenging, we regret to inform you that this was our April Fools’ joke, thanks for your great sense of humor! :)

Continuing our work of trying to make Phalcon even faster, we have decided to start migrating our code to assembler.
