🗃 Arrayy

A PHP array manipulation library. Compatible with PHP 7+ & PHP 8+

\Arrayy\Type\StringCollection::create(['Array', 'Array'])->unique()->append('y')->implode() // Arrayy

Ed8ypbzWAAIinwv-1

Installation via "composer require"

composer require voku/arrayy

Multidimensional ArrayAccess

You can access / change the array via Object, Array or with "Arrayy"-syntax.

Access via "Arrayy"-syntax: (dot-notation)

$arrayy = new A(['Lars' => ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']]);

$arrayy->get('Lars'); // ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']
$arrayy->get('Lars.lastname'); // 'Moelleken'

Access via "array"-syntax:

$arrayy = new A(['Lars' => ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']]);

$arrayy['Lars'];             // ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']
$arrayy['Lars']['lastname']; // 'Moelleken'

Access via "object"-syntax:

$arrayy = new A(['Lars' => ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']]);

$arrayy->Lars; // Arrayy['lastname' => 'Moelleken']
$arrayy->Lars->lastname; // 'Moelleken'

Set values via "Arrayy"-syntax: (dot-notation)

$arrayy = new A(['Lars' => ['lastname' => 'Mueller']]);

$arrayy->set('Lars.lastname', 'Moelleken');
$arrayy->get('Lars.lastname'); // 'Moelleken'

Set values via "array"-syntax:

$arrayy = new A(['Lars' => ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']]);

$arrayy['Lars'] = array('lastname' => 'Müller');
$arrayy['Lars']['lastname']; // 'Müller'

Set values via "object"-syntax:

$arrayy = new A(['Lars' => ['lastname' => 'Moelleken']]);

$arrayy->Lars = array('lastname' => 'Müller');
$arrayy->Lars->lastname; // 'Müller'

PhpDoc @property checking

The library offers a type checking for @property phpdoc-class-comments, as seen below:

/**
 * @property int        $id
 * @property int|string $firstName
 * @property string     $lastName
 * @property null|City  $city
 *
 * @extends  \Arrayy\Arrayy<array-key,mixed>
 */
class User extends \Arrayy\Arrayy
{
  protected $checkPropertyTypes = true;

  protected $checkPropertiesMismatchInConstructor = true;
}

/**
 * @property string|null $plz
 * @property string      $name
 * @property string[]    $infos
 *
 * @extends  \Arrayy\Arrayy<array-key,mixed>
 */
class City extends \Arrayy\Arrayy
{
    protected $checkPropertyTypes = true;

    protected $checkPropertiesMismatchInConstructor = true;
}

$cityMeta = City::meta();
$city = new City(
    [
        $cityMeta->plz   => null,
        $cityMeta->name  => 'Düsseldorf',
        $cityMeta->infos => ['lall'],
    ]
);

$userMeta = User::meta();
$user = new User(
    [
        $userMeta->id        => 1,
        $userMeta->firstName => 'Lars',
        $userMeta->lastName  => 'Moelleken',
        $userMeta->city      => $city,
    ]
);

var_dump($user['lastName']); // 'Moelleken'
var_dump($user[$userMeta->lastName]); // 'Moelleken'
var_dump($user->lastName); // Moelleken

var_dump($user['city.name']); // 'Düsseldorf'
var_dump($user[$userMeta->city][$cityMeta->name]); // 'Düsseldorf'
var_dump($user->city->name); // Düsseldorf
  • "checkPropertyTypes": activate the type checking for all defined @property in the class-phpdoc
  • "checkPropertiesMismatchInConstructor": activate the property mismatch check, so you can only add an array with all needed properties (or an empty array) into the constructor

OO and Chaining

The library also offers OO method chaining, as seen below:

simple example:

echo a(['fòô', 'bàř', 'bàř'])->unique()->reverse()->implode(','); // 'bàř,fòô'

complex example:

/**
 * @property int    $id
 * @property string $firstName
 * @property string $lastName
 *
 * @extends  \Arrayy\Arrayy<array-key,mixed>
 */
class User extends \Arrayy\Arrayy
{
  protected $checkPropertyTypes = true;

  protected $checkPropertiesMismatchInConstructor = true;
}

/**
 * @template TKey of array-key
 * @extends  AbstractCollection<TKey,User>
 */
class UserCollection extends \Arrayy\Collection\AbstractCollection
{
    /**
     * The type (FQCN) associated with this collection.
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function getType()
    {
        return User::class;
    }
}


$m = User::meta();

$data = static function () use ($m) {
    yield new User([$m->id => 40, $m->firstName => 'Foo', $m->lastName => 'Moelleken']);
    yield new User([$m->id => 30, $m->firstName => 'Sven', $m->lastName => 'Moelleken']);
    yield new User([$m->id => 20, $m->firstName => 'Lars', $m->lastName => 'Moelleken']);
    yield new User([$m->id => 10, $m->firstName => 'Lea', $m->lastName => 'Moelleken']);
};

$users = UserCollection::createFromGeneratorFunction($data);
$names = $users
    ->filter(static function (User $user): bool {
        return $user->id <= 30;
    })
    ->customSortValuesImmutable(static function (User $a, User $b): int {
        return $a->firstName <=> $b->firstName;
    })
    ->map(static function (User $user): string {
        return $user->firstName;
    })
    ->implode(';');

static::assertSame('Lars;Lea;Sven', $names);

Implemented Interfaces

Arrayy\Arrayy implements the IteratorAggregate interface, meaning that foreach can be used with an instance of the class:

$arrayy = a(['fòôbàř', 'foo']);
foreach ($arrayy as $value) {
    echo $value;
}
// 'fòôbàř'
// 'foo'

It implements the Countable interface, enabling the use of count() to retrieve the number of elements in the array:

$arrayy = a(['fòô', 'foo']);
count($arrayy);  // 2

PHP 5.6 Creation

As of PHP 5.6, use function is available for importing functions. Arrayy exposes a namespaced function, Arrayy\create, which emits the same behaviour as Arrayy\Arrayy::create(). If running PHP 5.6, or another runtime that supports the use function syntax, you can take advantage of an even simpler API as seen below:

use function Arrayy\create as a;

// Instead of: A::create(['fòô', 'bàř'])->reverse()->implode();
a(['fòô', 'bàř'])->reverse()->implode(','); // 'bàř,fòô'

Collections

If you need to group objects together, it's not a good idea to use a simple array or Arrayy object. For these cases you can use the AbstractCollection class.

It will throw a InvalidArgumentException if you try to add a non valid object into the collection.

e.g.: "YOURCollection.php" (see example /tests/CollectionTest.php on github)

use Arrayy\Collection\AbstractCollection;

/**
 * @extends  AbstractCollection<array-key,YOURInterface>
 */
class YOURCollection extends AbstractCollection
{
    /**
     * The type (FQCN) associated with this collection.
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function getType(): string
    {
        return YOURInterface::class;
    }
}

$YOURobject1 = new YOURClass();
$YOURobject2 = new YOURClass();

$YOURcollection = new YOURCollection($YOURobject1);
$YOURcollection->add($YOURobject2); // add one more object

// Or, you can use an array of objects.
//
// $YOURcollection = new YOURCollection([$YOURobject1, $YOURobject2]);

// Or, if you don't want to create new classes ... 
// ... and you don't need typehints and autocompletion via classes.
//
// $YOURcollection = \Arrayy\Collection::construct(YOURInterface::class, [$YOURobject1]);
// $YOURcollection->add($YOURobject2); // add one more object

// Or, if you don't like classes at all. ;-)
//
// $YOURcollection = \Arrayy\collection(YOURInterface::class, [$YOURobject1]);
// $YOURcollection->add($YOURobject2); // add one more object

foreach ($YOURcollection as $YOURobject) {
    if ($YOURobject instanceof YOURInterface) {
        // Do something with $YOURobject
    }
}

You can also use "dot-notation" to get data from your collections e.g. $YOURcollection->get('3123.foo.bar');

Pre-Defined Typified Collections

simple example

This will throw a "TypeError"-Exception.

use Arrayy\Type\StringCollection;

$collection = new StringCollection(['A', 'B', 'C', 1]);

complex example

This will NOT throw a "TypeError"-Exception.

use Arrayy\Type\IntCollection;
use Arrayy\Type\StringCollection;
use Arrayy\Type\InstancesCollection;
use Arrayy\Type\TypeInterface;

$collection = InstancesCollection::construct(
    TypeInterface::class,
    [new StringCollection(['A', 'B', 'C']), new IntCollection([1])]
);

$collection->toArray(true); // [['A', 'B', 'C'], [1]]

Convert JSON-Data into Objects (Collection)

namespace Arrayy\tests\Collection;

use Arrayy\Collection\AbstractCollection;

/**
 * @extends  AbstractCollection<array-key,\Arrayy\tests\UserData>
 */
class UserDataCollection extends AbstractCollection
{
    /**
     * The type (FQCN) associated with this collection.
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function getType()
    {
        return \Arrayy\tests\UserData::class;
    }
}

$json = '[{"id":1,"firstName":"Lars","lastName":"Moelleken","city":{"name":"Düsseldorf","plz":null,"infos":["lall"]}}, {"id":1,"firstName":"Sven","lastName":"Moelleken","city":{"name":"Köln","plz":null,"infos":["foo"]}}]';
$userDataCollection = UserDataCollection::createFromJsonMapper($json);

/** @var \Arrayy\tests\UserData[] $userDatas */
$userDataCollection->getAll();

$userData0 = $userDataCollection[0];
echo $userData0->firstName; // 'Lars'
$userData0->city; // CityData::class
echo $userData0->city->name; // 'Düsseldorf'

$userData1 = $userDataCollection[1];
echo $userData1->firstName; // 'Sven'
$userData1->city; // CityData::class
echo $userData1->city->name; // 'Köln'

EXAMPLE: a([1, true])->containsValues(array(1, true)); // true

Parameters:

  • array<T> $needles

Return:

  • bool <p>Returns true if all the given values exists in the array, false otherwise.</p>

count(int $mode): int

Counts all elements in an array, or something in an object.

EXAMPLE: a([-9, -8, -7, 1.32])->count(); // 4

For objects, if you have SPL installed, you can hook into count() by implementing interface {@see \Countable}. The interface has exactly one method, {@see \Countable::count()}, which returns the return value for the count() function. Please see the {@see \Array} section of the manual for a detailed explanation of how arrays are implemented and used in PHP.

Parameters:

  • int $mode [optional] If the optional mode parameter is set to COUNT_RECURSIVE (or 1), count will recursively count the array. This is particularly useful for counting all the elements of a multidimensional array. count does not detect infinite recursion.

Return:

  • `int

    The number of elements in var, which is typically an array, since anything else will have one element.

If var is not an array or an object with implemented Countable interface, 1 will be returned. There is one exception, if var is &null;, 0 will be returned.

Caution: count may return 0 for a variable that isn't set, but it may also return 0 for a variable that has been initialized with an empty array. Use isset to test if a variable is set.

`

countValues(): static

Counts all the values of an array

Parameters: nothing

Return:

  • `static

    (Immutable) An associative Arrayy-object of values from input as keys and their count as value.

sizeRecursive(): int

Counts all elements in an array, or something in an object.

For objects, if you have SPL installed, you can hook into count() by implementing interface {@see \Countable}.

Please see the {@see \Array} section of the manual for a detailed explanation of how arrays are implemented and used in PHP.

Parameters: nothing

Return:

  • `int

    The number of elements in var, which is typically an array, since anything else will have one element.

If var is not an array or an object with implemented Countable interface, 1 will be returned. There is one exception, if var is &null;, 0 will be returned.

Caution: count may return 0 for a variable that isn't set, but it may also return 0 for a variable that has been initialized with an empty array. Use isset to test if a variable is set.
