README

Dependency-light PHP base library. Owns the mwx\ namespace root — every sub-namespace except mwx\Tools\ (which belongs to the mwx/tools package family).

Contents

Namespace	What it holds
mwx\	Options, Utils, Serializer, WeakList, NotFound sentinel, magic getter/setter traits
mwx\Arrays\	ArrayHelper (merge, filter, path access), ArrayAccess trait/interfaces, Replace/UnsetArrayValue
mwx\Strings\	StringHelper
mwx\Streams\	Stream classes and filters, StdIO
mwx\Files\	FileInfo, the Pathable* family, FilterDefinition
mwx\Enums\	Enum framework: EnumArray variants, dynamic enums, EnumExtensionTrait
mwx\Debug\	Trace, InaccessibleMethodArg
mwx\Exceptions\	Pure path/argument/config exceptions

Dependencies

ext-json and the symfony components yaml, filesystem, property-access, stopwatch. Slimming the last two (used only by Utils) is an open task. The AGPL-encumbered serialized-data stdin filter lives in the opt-in mwx/serialized package, keeping this package cleanly MIT.

Install

Pre-publication: via the monorepo's path repository (see the repository root README). Later: composer require mwx/lib.
