I'm new to both Umbraco and PetaPoco and have not been able to find much documentation on how to set up PetaPoco for database access. What I need is just one custom table that I need to be able to insert values into.

I'm used to working with Entity Framework, so I am not sure how to approach this. What I need is the equivalent of the CRUD views generated by EF, though I only need the view for Creating new records.

I am aware that I can use an API controller for this, but how would I make this work with my Umbraco templates?

Links to any guides on using PetaPoco would be appreciated as well.
