Several PHP 7 tools to make life a little easier

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require atrapalo/php-tools

```

Enum
----

[](#enum)

PHP Enum implementation inspired from [`SplEnum`](http://php.net/manual/es/class.splenum.php) and based on project [`myclabs/php-enum`](https://github.com/myclabs/php-enum) because it is not integrated to PHP, you have to install it separately.

Using an enum instead of class constants provides the following advantages:

- You can type-hint: `function setAction(Action $action) {`
- You can enrich the enum with methods (e.g. `format`, `parse`, …)
- You can extend the enum to add new values (make your enum `final` to prevent it)
- You can get a list of all the possible values (see below)

This Enum class is not intended to replace class constants, but only to be used when it makes sense.

[See documentation](doc/ENUM.md)

Collection
----------

[](#collection)

PHP EntityCollection implementation inspired on [`ArrayCollection`](https://github.com/doctrine/collections/blob/master/lib/Doctrine/Common/Collections/ArrayCollection.php) from project [`doctrine/collections`](https://github.com/doctrine/collections).

[See documentation](doc/COLLECTION.md)
