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)
composer require gcworld/globals
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) */

# 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)
