Globals

GLOBALS allows you to easily manage your global variables in PHP by filtering the content automatically or specifically, with batch processing possible in case of array., _(*1)

This implementation is a fork of the original Coercive/Globals available at https://github.com/Coercive/Globals, _(*2)

I've been using an override in composer.json for a while to use the fork over the original, but seeing as how they've diverged, felt it was a better idea to try and separate namespaces and packages., _(*3)

Note: This package contains a class used to ease transition pains that will conflict with the original., _(*4)

Get

composer require gcworld/globals

Usage

use GCWorld\Globals;

# LOAD
$oGlobals = new Globals;

# DEFAULT
$oGlobals->filter(true);
# You can turn off by setting 'false'

# SET VAR
$oGlobals->GET('name', 'value');

# GET VAR
$var = $oGlobals->GET('name');

# FOR EXAMPLE :
$_GET['array'] = ['email@email.email', 'not an email'];
$_GET['notInt'] = '01234';
$_GET['int'] = '14244';
$_GET['_int'] = '-14244';
$_GET['float'] = '142.24';
$_GET['_float'] = '+142.24';
$_GET['bool'] = 'false';
$_GET['_bool'] = true;
$_GET['quote'] = '"';

# FILTER ALL
$var = $oGlobals->GET()->filterAll();

/**
      ["array"]
            [0]=> string(17) "email@email.email"
            [1]=> string(12) "not an email"
      ["notInt"]=> string(5) "01234"
      ["int"]=> int(14244)
      ["_int"]=> int(-14244)
      ["float"]=> float(142.24)
      ["_float"]=> float(142.24)
      ["bool"]=> bool(false)
      ["quote"]=> string(10) """
*/


# FILTER ONE (including array of elements)
$var = $oGlobals->email()->GET('array');

/**
    ["array"]
        [0]=> string(17) "email@email.email"
        [1]=> bool(false)
*/

Additional Features, _(*7)

# You can filter a variable (or a part of global for re-inject)
$Result = $oGlobals->autoFilterManualVar($YourVar);

Notes on Filters - The string() filter runs a trim(strip_tags()) and may not be what you need. The stringSpecial() is the filter equivalent function - The callback filter requires a callable. Previously, this just set the filter type and didn't function properly - The date() and dateTime filters check against strtotime($input) !== false before translating to a Y-m-d( H:i:s) format, _(*8)
