DataMapper ORM v1.8.0

[eluser]WanWizard[/eluser]
Again, Datamapper doesn't have it's own database config, nor it's own database layer.

It uses CI's database layer, including all configuration. The only thing you can control is how it uses it, through the datamapper configuration value 'db_params'.

It has three possible options:
- "" (empty string), this is the default and means it will use the CI database config as-is,
but will create a separate instance per model.
- FALSE, will re-use the same $CI->db instance in all models (this will break subqueries)
- any string, will be passed to $this->load->database() to load a specific database configuration.

This is documented here: http://datamapper.wanwizard.eu/pages/config.html
