README

This library uses PHP Attributes (introduced in PHP version 8.0) to automagically add/remove WordPress Hooks (Filters and Actions) to/from functions and methods.

Note: The library supports PHP >= 7.4 version.

Installation

$ composer require piotrpress/wordpress-hooks

Load

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

Usage

Attributes

#[ Action( string $name, int $priority = 10 ) ]
#[ Filter( string $name, int $priority = 10 ) ]

Functions

Hooks::add( object $object = null, string $callback = '', PiotrPress\CacherInterface $cache = null ) : void
Hooks::remove( object $object = null, string $callback = '', PiotrPress\CacherInterface $cache = null ) : void

Examples

Hooks::add/remove( $object )

If object argument is passed and callback is omitted, then all hooks from object are added or removed.

use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Action;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Filter;

class Example {
    public function add_hooks() {
        Hooks::add( $this );
    }

    #[ Action( 'init' ) ]
    public function example_init() : void {
        // do something
    }

    #[ Filter( 'the_title', 1 ) ]
    public function example_the_title( string $post_title, int $post_id ) : string {
        // do something
    }
}

$example = new Example();
$example->add_hooks();

Hooks::remove( $example );

This is an equivalent to:

$example = new Example();

add_action( 'init', [ $example, 'example_init' ] );
add_filter( 'the_title', [ $example, 'example_the_title' ], 1, 2 );

remove_action( 'init', [ $example, 'example_init' ] );
remove_filter( 'the_title', [ $example, 'example_the_title' ], 1, 2 );

Note: Hooks::add/remove() methods can be called from the method, or even outside the object.

Hooks::add/remove( $object, $callback )

If object and callback arguments are passed, then only hooks for this method are added or removed.

use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Action;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Filter;

class Example {
    public function add_hooks() {
        Hooks::add( $this, 'example_init' );
        Hooks::add( $this, 'example_the_title' );
    }

    #[ Action( 'init' ) ]
    public function example_init() : void {
        // do something
    }

    #[ Filter( 'the_title', 1 ) ]
    public function example_the_title( string $post_title, int $post_id ) : string {
        // do something
    }
}

$example = new Example();
$example->add_hooks();

Hooks::remove( $example, 'example_init' );
Hooks::remove( $example, 'example_the_title' );

This is an equivalent to:

$example = new Example();

add_action( 'init', [ $example, 'example_init' ] );
add_filter( 'the_title', [ $example, 'example_the_title' ], 1, 2 );

remove_action( 'init', [ $example, 'example_init' ] );
remove_filter( 'the_title', [ $example, 'example_the_title' ], 1, 2 );

Hooks::add/remove( callback: $callback )

If object argument is omitted and callback is passed, then only hooks for this function are added or removed.

use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Action;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Filter;

#[ Action( 'init' ) ]
public function example_init() : void {
    // do something
}

#[ Filter( 'the_title', 1 ) ]
public function example_the_title( string $post_title, int $post_id ) : string {
    // do something
}

Hooks::add( callback: 'example_init' );
Hooks::add( callback: 'example_the_title' );

Hooks::remove( callback: 'example_init' );
Hooks::remove( callback: 'example_the_title' );

This is an equivalent to:

add_action( 'init', 'example_init' );
add_filter( 'the_title', 'example_the_title', 1, 2 );

remove_action( 'init', 'example_init' );
remove_filter( 'the_title', 'example_the_title', 1, 2 );

Cache

Optionally, you can pass a cache object, which must implement PiotrPress\CacherInterface interface, as a third cache argument to Hooks::add/remove() methods.

This will cache the result of Hooks::get() method, which provides a list of hooks for a given object, method or function using Reflection API, so caching its result can significantly improve the performance.

Example

use PiotrPress\Cacher;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Action;
use PiotrPress\WordPress\Hooks\Filter;

class Example {
    #[ Action( 'init' ) ]
    public function example_init() : void {
        // do something
    }

    #[ Filter( 'the_title', 1 ) ]
    public function example_the_title( string $post_title, int $post_id ) : string {
        // do something
    }
}

$example = new Example();
$cache = new Cacher( '.hooks' );

Hooks::add( object: $example, cache: $cache );
Hooks::remove( object: $example, cache: $cache );

Note: You can use simple file-based cache, which is provided by PiotrPress\Cacher library distributed with this library.
