Enable adding method to a class on the fly.

class Tableau extends Prototype {
  protected $items;

  public function __construct($items = []) {
    $this->items = $items;
  }
}

$tableau = new Tableau(['php', 'python', 'nodejs']);

$tableau->prototype('all', function() {
  return $this->items;
});

$languages = $tableau->all();

Prerequisites

This project is bounded to the following requirements you should be aware of:

PHP >= 7.0.0
Each class extending Prototype should not define the following method: prototype()
Each class extending Prototype should not define the following static method: prototypes()

Installation

On your project folder, open a command prompt and type:

composer require khalyomede/prototype:1.*

Examples of uses

All these examples can be seen in /example folder.

Example 1: extending a class with a simple function
Example 2: extending a class with a simple method
Example 3: extending a class with a method with parameters

For all these examples, we will assume we have a function called Tableau that simulate the behavior of PHP collections:

namespace Me;

use Khalyomede\Prototype;

class Tableau extends Prototype {
  protected $items;

  public function __construct($items = []) {
    $this->items = $items;
  }

  public function all() {
    return $this->items;
  }
}

Example 1: extending a class with a simple function

use Me\Tableau;

$languages = ['php' => '7.2', 'python' => '3.6', 'nodejs' => '8.6'];

$tableau = new Tableau($languages);

$tableau->prototype('className', function() {
  return 'Tableau';
});

echo $tableau->className();

Will display:

Tableau

Example 2: extending a class with a simple method

use Me\Tableau;

$languages = ['php' => '7.2', 'python' => '3.6', 'nodejs' => '8.6'];

$tableau = new Tableau($languages);

$tableau->prototype('first', function() {
  return $this->items[key($this->items)];
});

$version = $tableau->first();

echo $version;

Will print:

7.2

Example 3: extending a class with a method with parameters

use Me\Tableau;

$languages = ['php' => '7.2', 'python' => '3.6', 'nodejs' => '8.6'];

$tableau = new Tableau($languages);

$tableau->prototype('find', function($key) {
  return isset($this->items[$key]) ? $this->items[$key] : null;
});

$python_version = $tableau->find('python');

echo $python_version;

Will echo:

3.6

Prototypes()

List all the registered prototypes. The list is shared across all the instance of your prototyped object.

public static function prototypes(): array

Prototype()

Register a new method for the object. This method can then be accessed across all your instances of the prototyped object.

public function prototype(string $name, callable $function): Prototype

Exceptions

InvalidArgumentException:

If the name of the function is already used by the prototyped object
If the prototype has already been registered for this object

BadMethodCallException:

If the method (you thought you prototyped) has not been registered yet

Note

This function returns an instance of the current object.
