Handle a repository of key-values data

Install

composer require proteins/map

Require the class via :

use Proteins\Map;

Building a Dictionary

Dictionary is a behaviour class, it must be extended by another class or the value repository will be shared.

class State extends Dictionary {}

Setting a value

You can set a value from a key path via the get method.

A valid key path is a arbitrary deep sequence of . separated strings.

Examples

• test
• alpha.beta
• pages.section.text_block.3

State::set('options.use_cache',false);

State::set('users.whitelist',[
	'frank.ciccio',
	'walter.submarine',
	'pepen.spacca',
]);

Getting a value

You can get a value from a key path via the get method.

echo State::get('users.whitelist.1'); // walter.submarine

You can optionally pass a default value to be returned when the requested key is not found. If a callable is passed the returned value will be used.

print_r( State::get('a.test',['b'=>123]) ); // Array( [b] => 123 )
echo State::get('a.test.b'); // 123

Getting all values

You can get all key-values as an associative array via the all method.

$all_data = State::all();

Results :

Array (
    [users] => Array (
        [whitelist] => Array(
            [0] => frank.ciccio
            [1] => walter.submarine
            [2] => pepen.spacca
        )
    )
)

Clearing the Map

You can clear all values from a Map via the clear method.

State::clear();

Merging data

The merge method extends the Map with values passed via an associative array. The second optional parameter will define the if merge data from right-to-left or backwise (default is false = left-to-right ).

Setting initial data

State::clear();
State::merge([
    'user' => [
        'name' => 'Simon',
        'role' => 'Villain',
    ],
]);

Array (
    [user] => Array (
            [name] => Simon
            [role] => Villain
        )
)

Standard merge (left-to-right)

State::merge([
    'user' => [
        'name' => 'Frank',
    ],
    'happy' => true,
]);

Array (
    [user] => Array (
            [name] => Frank
            [role] => Villain
        )
    [happy] => 1
)

Back merge (right-to-left)

State::merge([
    'user' => [
        'name' => 'Frank',
    ],
    'happy' => true,
],true);

Array (
    [user] => Array (
            [name] => Simon
            [role] => Villain
        )
    [happy] => 1
)

Getting multiple values

You can retrieve multiple values, minimizing function calls by passing an associative array of type :

DESTINATION_KEY => Map_PATH

Example :

MyService::init([
    'username'   =>  State::get('aws.username'),
    'password'   =>  State::get('aws.password'),
    'from'       =>  State::get('user.email'),
    'verbose'    =>  State::get('app.global.debug'),
]);

Can be written with a single call to get as :

MyService::init( State::get([
    'username'   =>  'aws.username',
    'password'   =>  'aws.password',
    'from'       =>  'user.email',
    'verbose'    =>  'app.global.debug',
]));
