This library was inspired by the functions
do_action
andapply_filter
available at Wordress core.
Hooks are a way to run certain piece of code at specific, pre-defined spots. The main avantage of this feature is that hook can accumulates a bunch of functions that will be performed only when requested.
In this library, in contrast to the Wordpress proposal, there are three types of hooks: filters, actions and dispatchers. All of them register a callback
, including or not parameters, to a tag. And, later, this tag can be executed.

Installation
This library can be installed by using Composer with composer require piggly/php-hooks
;
Registering callbacks
As long as a hook tag is not fired, it is possible to add and/or remove callbacks registered to it. And, for each registered callback, it is possible to create a tag composed by: tag name, function name, required arguments and execution priority.
Tags are formed by two ways: using the Syntax::create()
function or writing a string
by using tag syntax below.
The syntax of a tag consists of:
{tagname}
: (Required) Tag name;.{function_name}
: Function name;?{args}
: Number of arguments to be received, by default always will be1
;::{priority}
: Number of execution priority, by default always will be10
;
A name gave to a callback always needs to be unique. If function name already exists in tag, it will throws
NameAlreadyExistsException
.
The tag syntax regex is /^(?:(?P<tag>[^\.\:\?]+))(?:\.(?P<name>[^\:\?]+))?(?:\?(?P<args>[\d]+))?(?:\:\:(?P<priority>[\d]+))?$
. If tag syntax is wrong, it will throws InvalidSyntaxException
.
For example:
- To register a callback with tag
calculate
and priority1
, tag syntax will be:calculate::1
; - To register a callback with tag
calculate
, namepow
and2
arguments to be received, tag syntax will be:calculate.pow?2
;
Check below another examples:
// Register in tag calculate $tag = 'calculate'; // Register in tag calculate ready to recieve two args $tag = 'calculate?2'; // Register in tag calculate with priority 1 $tag = 'calculate::1'; // Register in tag calculate ready to recieve two args and priority 1 $tag = 'calculate?2::1'; // Register in tag calculate with name sum $tag = 'calculate.sum'; // Register in tag calculate with name sum ready to recieve two args $tag = 'calculate.pow?2'; // Register in tag calculate with name sum and priority 1 $tag = 'calculate.sum::1'; // Register in tag calculate with name sum, ready to recieve two args and priority 1 $tag = 'calculate.pow?2::1';
Callbacks
Any registred function, in addition to requiring a tag, it also requires a callback
. The callbacks that can be received by the Hook::filter()
, Hook::action()
and Hook::dispatch()
methods are:
Closure
: a clousure object typeHook::filter( $tagSyntax, function ( $number ) { return $number + 15; } );
Function
: astring
referring to the function nameHook::filter( $tagSyntax, 'sum' );
Static Object
: aclass
with astatic function
referring to the class name and static methodHook::filter( $tagSyntax, StaticClass::class, 'methodToCall' );
Object
: aninstance
of an object referring to object method to be calledHook::filter( $tagSyntax, $instance, 'methodToCall' );
Additional parameters
After referencing the callback
, the last parameters will always be the additional parameters attached to that function. For example, Hook::dispatch( $tagSyntax, 'sum', 1 );
will have an additional parameter as 1
. Additional parameters are used only in the Hook::dispatch()
method.
Understand more about
Hook::filter()
,Hook::action()
andHook::dispatch()
below.
Filters x Actions x Dispatchers
The main difference between these three types of hooks are:
- A filter takes the information it receives at the point of execution, modifies it in some way and returns it. In other words: modify something and return for use in the next filter, and so on;
An example of a filter is the filter
Hook::apply('comment', $comment)
which filters the comment by removing illegal words, removing links, etc.
- An action takes the information it receives at the point of execution, does something with it and returns nothing. In other words: perform something and then end your code with a beginning, middle and end.
An example of an action is a notification when a new ticket is created
Hook::run('new_ticket', $ticket)
. The action will receive$ticket
and it can send a notification accordingly.
- A dispatcher is like an action, but instead of taking the information it receives at the point of execution, it takes the information at the point of registration. In other words: it executes something not related to the execution point, but that interferes on it.
An example of a dispatcher is to include a CSS file in the HTML tag
Hook::run('head')
. Here, dispatcher will receive CSS$name
file at moment it is registeredHook::dispatch('head', 'importCss', 'home.css')
.
Filters Hook::filter()
Filters give hooks the ability to manipulate data during execution. The filter functions will receive a variable, modify it and return it. The functions registered in a filter must work isolated and should never have side effects. Filters always expect something to be returned to them.
To register a new callback to a filter, the method Hook::filter()
should be called with the following parameters:
$tagSyntax
:A tag syntax where the function will be registered;$callback, ?$method
: The callback to be executed.
To apply a filter, the method Hook::apply()
should be called with the following parameters:
$tag
: Tag name that will be executed;$value
: Initial value to filter;...$params
: Additional parameters to filter (Hook::filter()
need to be able to receive this parameters in the tag syntax with?{args}
, by default always will be1
);
In addition, there are two variations of the Hook::apply()
method, they are:
Hook::applyByName()
executes only a specific function of a tag;Hook::applyOnce()
executes the tag only once, after that, it can no longer be used;
It is also possible to remove filters before execution with the method Hook::removeFilter()
.
Tip: Use the
Hook::applyOnce()
method when a filter tag is used only once during the life cycle of your application, it will free up memory space during run time.
Check out a practical example of using filters below:
function fsum ( $number ) { return $number+15; } function fsub ( $number ) { return $number - 10; } function fmul ( $number ) { return $number * 3; } function fdiv ( $number ) { return $number / 2; } function fpow ( $number, $exp ) { return is_numeric($exp) ? pow($number, $exp) : $number; } Hook::filter('calculate.sum', 'fsum'); Hook::filter('calculate.sub', 'fsub'); Hook::filter('calculate.mul', 'fmul'); Hook::filter('calculate.div', 'fdiv'); // -> Apply => Expects (((10+15)-10)*3)/2 = 22.5 $number = Hook::apply('calculate', 10); echo sprintf("Number: %s\n", $number);
Full examples are available here.
Actions Hook::action()
Actions allow you to modify the behavior of your application. The functions of an action can write some output, insert data into the database, send notifications and the so on. The functions registered in an action must always perform some type of task, for this reason no type of return will happen.
To register a new callback to an action, the method Hook::action()
should be called with the following parameters:
$tagSyntax
:A tag syntax where the function will be registered;$callback, ?$method
: The callback to be executed.
To run an action, the method Hook::run()
should be called with the following parameters:
$tag
: Tag name that will be executed;...$params
: Additional parameters to action (Hook::action()
need to be able to receive this parameters in the tag syntax with?{args}
, by default always will be1
);
In addition, there are two variations of the Hook::run()
method, they are:
Hook::runByName()
executes only a specific function of a tag;Hook::runOnce()
executes the tag only once, after that, it can no longer be used;
It is also possible to remove actions before execution with the method Hook::removeAction()
.
Tip: Use the
Hook::runOnce()
method when an action tag is used only once during the life cycle of your application, it will free up memory space during run time.
Check out a practical example of using actions below:
function line () { echo "I am line 02\n"; } function message ( $message ) { echo sprintf("Message: %s\n", $message); } Hook::action('sentences.line', 'line'); Hook::action('sentences.message', 'message'); Hook::run('sentences', 'Peace and Love');
Full examples are available here.
Dispatchers Hook::dispatch()
Dispatchers have the same behavior as actions. They execute code snippets without any return and are registered by the Hook::dispatch()
method. However, the main difference how they receive the additional parameters.
Consider that in your application there is a hook head
that will run to add HTML tags into <head>
tag of your application.
<html> <head> <?php Hook::run('head'); ?> </head> <body> </body> </html>
Let's assume, then, that you have the Controller
which includes the methods home()
, services()
and about()
(one equivalent for each page). And yet, there are the files home.css
, services.css
and about.css
. To include them into the head
that, it is required to create one callback to each action. See:
class Controller { // ... public function home() { Hook::action('head', $this, 'homeAction'); // ... } public function services() { Hook::action('head', $this, 'servicesAction'); // ... } public function about() { Hook::action('head', $this, 'aboutAction'); // ... } public function homeAction () { /** Add css file... **/ } public function servicesAction () { /** Add css file... **/ } public function aboutAction () { /** Add css file... **/ } // ... }
Too boring isn't it? This happens because the method Hook::run('head')
does not send parameters for actions and actions do not receive parameters. That's because we need one callback by action. It is also not possible to send the required parameters of home()
, services()
e about()
in the point of execution Hook::run('head')
.
The dispatchers were created to solve this problem. In this case, imagine that we have the function importCss($name)
. This function echo the <link>
tag in the page by using $name
as CSS name file. Now, all we need to do is register the dispatcher of this function with the parameter $name
. See:
class Controller { // ... public function home() { Hook::dispatch('head', 'importCss', 'home.css'); // ... } public function services() { Hook::dispatch('head', 'importCss', 'services.css'); // ... } public function about() { Hook::dispatch('head', 'importCss', 'about.css'); // ... } // ... }
As you can see, we reduced our code and worked with even more efficient hooks. With triggers we can include functions in the code more intelligently without relying on functions equivalent to the action we are creating (since actions do not allow additional parameters outside the Hook::run()
executation point).
It is very important to understand that a hook Hook::run('new_ticket', $ticket)
is sending the $ticket
parameter and this parameter will be received to any action as Hook::action('new_ticket.notification', 'notification');
, however it is not received by a Hook::dispatch('new_ticket.notification', 'notification', $ticket);
which needs to include $ticket
while is being registered.
Actions must be used when they need to inherit
Hook::run()
execution parameters, while dispatchers must be used when we want to include a function with its own parameters inside the hook.
It is also possible to remove dispatchers before execution with the method Hook::removeDispatcher()
.
Check below a practical example of using dispatchers:
function name ( $message ) { echo sprintf("Your name: %s\n", $message); } function prog ( $message ) { echo sprintf("Progamming Language: %s\n", $message); } Hook::dispatch('sentences.name::1', 'name', 'Alpha'); Hook::dispatch('sentences.prog::1', 'prog', 'JS'); Hook::run('sentences', 'Peace and Love');
