Mistakes in Cycle ORM installation

[Remo]

I tried to get Cycle ORM 2 running, but it seems like there are some things missing in the documentation. I've started here:

https://cycle-orm.dev/docs/intro-install/2.x/en

I then read this part: https://cycle-orm.dev/docs/intro-install/2.x/en#configuration-manually-configure-mapping (direct links to anchor don't seem to work, but there's an ID in the code). However, I don't want to skip the annotation part as I don't want to manually define my schema so I skip this part.

Next I therefore try to define my entity: https://cycle-orm.dev/docs/intro-install/2.x/en#define-entity. This works fine, the class loader also manages to find my class, however, in "Define Entity" we are creating the entity in the src folder and then scan __DIR__. If I try that, it will fail because that will try to load some classes in the vendor directory which can't be loaded because I don't have Illuminate/Collection installed. I replaced that with the src folder and managed to get it working.

I then tried to register my orm schema with this $orm = $orm->with(schema: new \Cycle\ORM\Schema($schema));, but here $orm isn't defined because I skipped the part where we manually register the schema. I also tried to keep it, but then I have a bunch of collisions with Schema..

I read the whole thing twice, but I don't see how the documentation here should work.

Hi @Remo. Thank you for detailed problem description! We appreciate it! Could you provide more information about Schema collisions?

Yes, that happened because I've had these two lines in my code as soon as I tried to use both approaches at the same time

use Cycle\ORM\Schema;
use Cycle\Schema;

(I know that I can alias that, but that shouldn't be necessary when I just install something)

There's also another mistake in the constructor of User. The constructor has two parameters, but it is initialized with this $u = new \Example\User();
