Nuffle, The PHP Library

Nuffle, The PHP Library, is a dice calculator library that provides the functionality to perform complex dice rolls and calculate their result (ex: 5d6 + 1d20 / (1d6 - 2)).

Installation

Via Composer

Require the library and update via Composer:

composer require nuffleapp/nuffle
composer update

Manually

Download the latest release, extract into a directory called nuffle, and include the library at the beginning of your script:

include_once('./nuffle/src/Nuffle.php');
use \Nuffle\Nuffle;

Usage

Nuffle is a dice calculator, allowing you to perform complex dice rolls and calculate their result. To do so, simply call the roll() method with your equation:

Nuffle::roll('5d6 + 1d20 / (1d6 - 2)')

That method will return an object that looks like the following:

{
   "rolls" : [
      {
         "notation" : "5d6",
         "rolls" : [
            2,
            1,
            2,
            4,
            5
         ]
      },
      {
         "notation" : "1d20",
         "rolls" : [
            11
         ]
      },
      {
         "rolls" : [
            4
         ],
         "notation" : "1d6"
      }
   ],
   "equation" : "(2 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 5) + (11) / ((4) - 2)",
   "result" : 19.5,
   "input" : "5d6 + 1d20 / (1d6 - 2)"
}

The object includes the value of each individual dice roll notation, the expanded equation, the equation result, and the original input.
