Features

Easy inspection and processing of object properties based on custom attributes
Support for both validation and sanitization of property values
Flexible attribute handling through custom attribute handlers
Seamless integration with other KaririCode components (Serializer, Validator, Normalizer)
Extensible architecture allowing custom attributes and handlers
Built on top of the KaririCode\Contract interfaces for maximum flexibility

Installation

The PropertyInspector component can be easily installed via Composer, which is the recommended dependency manager for PHP projects.

To install the PropertyInspector component in your project, run the following command in your terminal:

composer require kariricode/property-inspector

This command will automatically add PropertyInspector to your project and install all necessary dependencies.

Requirements

PHP 8.1 or higher
Composer

Manual Installation

If you prefer not to use Composer, you can download the source code directly from the GitHub repository and include it manually in your project. However, we strongly recommend using Composer for easier dependency management and updates.

After installation, you can start using PropertyInspector in your PHP project immediately. Make sure to include the Composer autoloader in your script:

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

Usage

Basic Usage

Define your custom attributes and entity:

use Attribute;

#[Attribute(Attribute::TARGET_PROPERTY)]
class Validate
{
    public function __construct(public readonly array $rules) {}
}

#[Attribute(Attribute::TARGET_PROPERTY)]
class Sanitize
{
    public function __construct(public readonly string $method) {}
}

class User
{
    public function __construct(
        #[Validate(['required', 'string', 'min:3'])]
        #[Sanitize('trim')]
        public string $name,
        #[Validate(['required', 'email'])]
        #[Sanitize('lowercase')]
        public string $email,
        #[Validate(['required', 'integer', 'min:18'])]
        public int $age
    ) {}
}

Create a custom attribute handler:

use KaririCode\PropertyInspector\Contract\PropertyAttributeHandler;

class CustomAttributeHandler implements PropertyAttributeHandler
{
    public function handleAttribute(object $object, string $propertyName, object $attribute, mixed $value): ?string
    {
        if ($attribute instanceof Validate) {
            return $this->validate($propertyName, $value, $attribute->rules);
        }
        if ($attribute instanceof Sanitize) {
            return $this->sanitize($value, $attribute->method);
        }
        return null;
    }

    // Implement validate and sanitize methods...
}

Use the PropertyInspector:

use KaririCode\PropertyInspector\AttributeAnalyzer;
use KaririCode\PropertyInspector\PropertyInspector;

$attributeAnalyzer = new AttributeAnalyzer(Validate::class);
$propertyInspector = new PropertyInspector($attributeAnalyzer);
$handler = new CustomAttributeHandler();

$user = new User('Walmir Silva', 'walmir@example.com', 25);

$results = $propertyInspector->inspect($user, $handler);

Advanced Usage

You can create more complex validation and sanitization rules, and even combine the PropertyInspector with other components like the ProcessorPipeline for more advanced processing flows.

Integration with Other KaririCode Components

The PropertyInspector component is designed to work seamlessly with other KaririCode components:

KaririCode\Serializer: Use PropertyInspector to validate and sanitize data before serialization.
KaririCode\Validator: Integrate custom validation logic with PropertyInspector attributes.
KaririCode\Normalizer: Use PropertyInspector to normalize object properties based on attributes.
