Builder Trait
=============

[](#builder-trait)

Implements a Lombokish version of Builder using Traits.

Supports the following traits individually:

- Builderå
- Getter
- Setter
- ToBuilder
- Data

Example usage is in `tests/Models/` and `tests/BuilderTest.php`.

### Builder

[](#builder)

To add builder functionality, add the Builder trait:

```
use Builder;
```

You can then construct an object using the builder fluent interface:

```
Gato::builder()->age(7)->name("Charlie")->build();
```

### Getter, Setter, Data

[](#getter-setter-data)

You can add getters and setters over all private members by adding the Getter or Setter traits.

Due to limitations in library design, both Getter and Setter cannot be used in the same class.

Instead, use the Data trait.

#### Getter

[](#getter)

```
class Gato {
    use Getter;
    private $name;
}

$catName = $gato->getName();
```

#### Setter

[](#setter)

```
class Gato {
    use Setter;
    private $name;
}
$name = $gato->getName();
```

#### Data

[](#data)

Due to trait method collision, we can't compose `Getter` and `Setter` in the same class.

Instead use the `Data` trait.

```
class Gato {
    use Data;
    private $name;
}
$gato->setName('Charlie');
$name = $gato->getName();
```

### ToBuilder

[](#tobuilder)

We can mutate an existing object with the `ToBuilder` trait.

```
class Gato {
    use ToBuilder;
    private $name;
}
$chuck = $gato->toBuilder()->name('Charlie')->build();
```

### Hooks

[](#hooks)

#### \#\[PostInit\] Attribute

[](#postinit-attribute)

Apply the `#[PostInit]` attribute to any private method to be called during the `->build()` phase of the Builder.
