All you need to do is say which class you want to make, provide it some input (arrays, JSON, XML, files or objects), and this package will take care of the rest. Added bonus: proper static analysis, so you'll know what kind of object was created. ``` $post = make(Post::class)->from($postData); ``` ### Input types [](#input-types) #### Arrays [](#arrays) ``` $post = make(Post::class)->from([ 'title' => 'test', ]); ``` #### JSON [](#json) ``` $post = make(Post::class)->from( 'test', ]; } } ``` #### Collections [](#collections) ``` $posts = make(Post::class)->fromCollection([ ['title' => 'a'], ['title' => 'b'], ['title' => 'c'], ]); ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
