array-helper
, (*1)
⚡️ A flexible, simple & yet powerful array manipulation helper for PHP. It gives you the magic of method chaining and it's easier and shorter to be included in views. It Supports most of PHP built-in array functions, (*2)
arr([' ', 'hi ', null, ' welcome'])->map('trim')->filter()->get()
>> ['hi', 'welcome']
Features
- Support All PHP array functions.
- Short methods names, no need to write "array_" like array_map can be only map(..)
- Array items can be retrireve or updated as properties or keys [->key or [key] ]
- Support powefull conditional methods. if, else, if{AnyMethod}, endif.
- Support camelCase and snake-case methods name.
- Useful new methods like equal, exists .. etc
Install/Use
You can install the package via composer locally in your project folder:, (*3)
$ composer require awssat/array-helper
After installing it, just start using the helper arr([...]) or ArrayHelper::make([...]), (*4)
Examples
Use any array function, no need for "array_", if you like it you can use it as in array_filter or arrayFilter .. all will work., (*5)
$x = arr(['', 'item', null, 'item2'])->filter()->get()
>> ['item', 'item2']
You can use conditions, if(function() {...}), if{AnyMethod}, else(), endif(), (*6)
$x = arr(['item', 'item2', null])
->ifContains(null)
->filter()
->endif()
->get()
you may also use useful method with if like ifEmpty, ifKeyExists or ifEqual etc., (*7)
get() will return all items, while get(index) return a item in the array. all() is alias for get(all, true) which will ignore conditions and force return of items anyway., (*8)
The example above can be shortened using all() like this:, (*9)
$x = arr(['item', 'item2', null])
->ifContains(null)
->filter()
->all()
You can use do(callback) to run a callback on the array., (*10)
$x = arr(['item ', 'item2'])
->do(function() {
return $this->map('trim');
})
->all()
PHP built-in array_map, array_walk, array_filter, and array_reduce are the best!, (*11)
array_map to loop through all items and change them., (*12)
$array->map(function($item) {
return 'Hello: '. strip_tags($item) . ' !';
});
or for simple functions use, $array->map('trim'), (*13)
array_walk can be used for looping without changing items, (*14)
$array->walk(function($item, $key) {
print "$key: $item<br />\n";
});
or if you want to change the values, (*15)
$array->walk(function(&$item, $key) {
$item = $item * 2;
});
array_filter is great for filtering an array, (*16)
$array->filter(function($item) {
return $item > 5;
});
or just $array->filter() to remove any value equal to FALSE., (*17)
Tests
Simply use:, (*18)
$ composer test
