Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` $ composer require benrowe/properties ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` class Sample extends AbstractBase { public function __construct() { // do stuff $this->configureProperties(); // properties now available } /** * This method is automatically called by AbstractBase once * the constructor has finished executing */ public function configureProperties() { $this-> addProperty('simple') $this ->addProperty('complex', 'string', 'default value') ->setter(function($value) { return trim($value); }) ->getter(function($value) { return str_reverse($value); }) ->validate(function ($value) { return strlen($value) > 0; }); } } $sample = new Sample; $sample->simple = 'test'; $sample->undefined = 'newval'; // throws PropertyException "Undefined property 'undefined'" $sample->complex; // 'default value' $sample->complex = ''; // throws PropertyException "property 'complex' invalid value on set" $sample->complex = ' hello world'; echo $sample->complex; //'dlrow olleh'; ``` Each property is defined programatically (at runtime), and requires the class to run this code (with a hook). Each property can have a - name:string - data type(s): string - validation: string|closure - setter: closure - getter:string - default value (null): mixed - value: mixed (depends on data type/validation/setter) TODO ---- [](#todo) - add the ability for a setter to reject a value by throwing an exception - build custom validation support for setting the value - instead of providing a closure for the setter, provide a laravel style validation string. - add a helper function to restrict the setter to a list of known values `$this->addProperty('key')->isIn(['foo', 'bar']);` Change log ---------- [](#change-log) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.
