README

Reads the class docblock to validate and get, set, isset, or unset defined inaccessible object properties using __get, __set, __isset, and __unset.

Installation

Use composer to install:

composer require aesonus/php-magic

Usage

Basic Use Case:

1. Import the trait into your class

class MyClass {
    use HasMagicProperties;
    // or
    use HasInheritedMagicProperties;
}

1. Add properties to docblock using phpdoc formatted docblocks and define object properties of the same name

use \stdClass;

/**
 * Yup, the question mark can be used to indicate null
 * @property ?string $testStringOrNullProperty Optional description
 * The | can validate using 'or'
 * @property float|string   $testFloatOrStringProperty
 * @property-read int $testIntReadProperty
 * @property-read callable|object $testCallableOrObjectReadProperty
 * @property-write stdClass|null $testStdClassOrNullWriteProperty
 * @property-write mixed $testMixedWriteProperty
 */
class MyClass {
    use HasMagicProperties;

    protected $testStringOrNullProperty;
    protected $testFloatOrStringProperty;
    protected $testIntReadProperty;
    protected $testCallableOrObjectReadProperty;
    protected $testStdClassOrNullWriteProperty;
    protected $testMixedWriteProperty;
    ...
}

1. Create magic methods and make them call the corresponding magic[Get|Isset|Set|Unset] methods (TIP: There is no need to implement all the magic methods if you don't need to)

In this example we set up the magic property methods ourselves

/**
* ...
*/
class MyClass {
    use HasMagicProperties;

    /**
    * Only readable properties will be read (@property or @property-read)
    */
    public function __get($name)
    {
        return $this->magicGet($name);
    }

    /**
    * Only readable properties will be read (@property or @property-read)
    */
    public function __isset($name)
    {
        return $this->magicIsset($name);
    }
    
    /**
    * Only writable properties will be set (@property or @property-write)
    */
    public function __set($name, $value)
    {
        $this->magicSet($name, $value);
    }
    
    /**
    * Only writeable properties will be set (@property or @property-write)
    */
    public function __unset($name)
    {
        $this->magicUnset($name);
    }
    
    ...
}

You may also use the ImplementsMagicMethods trait to just implement all of the magic functions automatically

/**
* ...
*/
class MyClass {
    use HasMagicProperties;
    use ImplementsMagicMethods;
    ...
}

1. You can also define custom behavior in your magic methods if you so choose

/**
 * ...
 */
class MyClass {

    public function __get($name)
    {
        // Do something
        return $this->magicGet($name);
    }

    public function __set($name, $value)
    {
        $this->magicSet($name, $value);
        //Manipulate the set value after the validation, if wanted
    }

    ...
}

Type Validation

The trait will use the type(s) defined in the doc block to validate the input. It currently supports any type that can be called by is_int, is_bool, etc; and any class that you may desire.

The following example validates the parameter as a class My\Namespace\Foo or My\Other\Namespace\Bar

use My\Namespace\Foo;
use My\Other\Namspace\Bar;

/**
 *
 * @property $myClass Foo|Bar
 */
class MyClass {

}
