Usage
Cygnite array accessor used to read values from multi multidimensional array. It helps when you want to beautify
your syntax and easy to access values. You can read values as below., (*3)
Example
$array = [
'profile' => [
"experience" => [
"field" => "Web Development",
"technology" => "PHP"
]
]
];
$arrayAccessor = (new ArrayAccessor())->set($array);
echo $arrayAccessor->toString('profile.experience.field'); // output: Web Development
In some cases your array key may contains dot(.) which will make system confused whether it should look for next
key or same. In such cases while getting value you need to provide key as underscore or dash prefix as below., (*4)
$array2 = [
'profile' => [
"experience" => [
"technology.version" => "Welcome to PHP v5.4"
]
]
];
$arrayAccessor = (new ArrayAccessor())->set($array1);
echo $arrayAccessor->toString('profile.experience.technology_version'); // output: Welcome to PHP v5.4
Getting default value if array element not exists
$array3 = [
'profile' => [
"experience" => '4 Years'
]
];
$arrayAccessor = (new ArrayAccessor())->set($array3);
echo $arrayAccessor->toString('profile.experience.area', 'Application Development'); // output 5 years
Using Closure Syntax
$array4 = [
'profile' => [
"author" => 'Sanjoy Dey'
]
];
$arrayAccessor = ArrayAccessor::make(function($a) use ($array4)
{
return $a->set($array4);
});
echo $arrayAccessor->toString('profile.author');
