AOP for PHP
===========

[](#aop-for-php)

Implements a simplified subset of AOP (Aspect Oriented Programming) pragmatism and provides the AOP features for PHP application.

Only one dependency, the *code interceptor*.

The PHP lib of AOP.io provides an abstraction layer easy to use for AOP development, so it can work with several PHP code interceptors.

The first interceptor implemented uses [PECL AOP-PHP extension](https://github.com/aop-io/pecl-aop-interceptor).

Other interceptors are planned. If you want to create an interceptor, see the [skeleton](https://github.com/aop-io/skeleton-interceptor).

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

### Install

[](#install)

1. Install an interceptor, e.g: [PECL AOP-PHP extension](https://github.com/aop-io/pecl-aop-interceptor).
2. Download [PHP AOP.io lib](https://github.com/aop-io/php-aop/archive/master.zip) (and configure your autoloader) or use composer `require: "aop-io/php-aop"`.

### Usage

[](#usage)

```
use Aop\Aop;

// Init
new Aop();

function hello($name)
{
    return $name
}

// Interception of kind 'around'
Aop::addAround('hello()', function($joinPoint) {

    // In this context,
    // $joinPoint is an instance of \Aop\JoinPoint\AroundFunctionJoinPoint

    // get an array with all arguments values
    var_dump($joinPoint->getArgs()); // (array) 0 => World !

    // change the return value
    $joinPoint->setReturnValue('Hello Nico !');

    // Proceed the execution of the function ( hello() )
    $joinPoint->proceed();
});

echo hello('World !'); // Hello Nico !
```
