Intro
-----

[](#intro)

This simple library was first and foremost created because I noticed that I use the funcionallity it provides across several projects and instead of re-writing the logic again and again, I've decided to mold this into a library, mostly for my conveniance, but also publish it as an open-source project in order to help anyone else who might find it useful.

` composer require domagoj03/object-creator`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Intended usage is to extend the abstracts of the library and instantiate objects by passing data to your object's constructor. For example, when you receive data as a result of an API call, you might get it as an array or as \\stdClass. Then instead of accessing that data as `$data['value']`, you could acess it as `$object->getValue()` thus mitigating possible errors and additional checks like `isset($data['value'])` before using it.

You can find some inspiration inside `tests/Helpers`

This method proved very handy in situations where I had to handle different data structure received, for example, from an API calls or Webhooks. It's also useful when you have to handle multiple external API integrations.

### v1.0

[](#v10)

- Define object which represents data in your application
- Make it extend desired library abstract
- Generate getters and setters for your properties (in this case for `number`). Remember that index of an associative array is property of your class and value represents the property/key of the data you wish to create object from.

```
class DemoObject extends ArrayObjectCreator // or StdClassObjectCreator
{
    protected $propertyMapper = [
        'number' => 'SomeNumber',
    ];

    /**
     * @var int
     */
    private $number;

    /**
     * @return int
     */
    public function getNumber(): ?int
    {
        return $this->number;
    }

    /**
     * @param int $number
     * @return DemoObjectFromArray
     */
    public function setNumber(int $number): DemoObjectFromArray
    {
        $this->number = $number;

        return $this;
    }
}
```

- When you need to use that received `$data`, instantiate your object and pass the `$data` to a constructor.

#### Data as array

[](#data-as-array)

```
// Usually as a result of an API call
$data = [
    'SomeNumber' => 23
];

$object = new DemoObject($data);
$object->getNumber(); // 23
```

#### Data as stdClass

[](#data-as-stdclass)

```
$data = new \stdClass();
$data->number = 23;

$object = new DemoObject($data); // Has to extend StdClassObjectCreator
$object->getNumber(); // 23
```

- This is a fairly simple example but shows what the library does in a nutshell.

### v0.1 \[not recommended\]

[](#v01-not-recommended)

- Has only `ArrayObjectCreator`
- `ArrayObjectCreator` will not set `null` values
