Common programing patterns for evo

- Singleton (trait and interface)
- Multiton (trait and interface)

If you don't know what a Singlton is I suggest reading about it

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton\_pattern](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern)

Singleton useage

```
use evo\pattern\singleton\SingletonTrait;
use evo\pattern\singleton\SingletonInterface;

Class Foo implements SingletonInterface{
    use Singleton;
    protected function init(){
       //stuff to do on __construct
    }
}

```

Then you can call your class like this (each additional call will return the same instance of the class)

```
$Foo = Foo:getInstance();

```

Multiton usage

```
use evo\pattern\singleton\MultitonTrait;
use evo\pattern\singleton\MultitonInterface;

 Class Foo implements MultitonInterface{
     use Multiton;
     protected function init(){
        //stuff to do on __construct
     }
 }

```

Then you can call your class like this

```
$Foo = Foo:getInstance();

```

The diffrence between them is the Multiton acts more like a container for Singlton instances. So you can call the `getInstance` method multiple times with diffrent aliases and get multiple copies of the class, each a singleton in it's own right. Becareful using Static proprites on multitons as they can be a bit tricky.

```
//this will produce two singleton instances of the class
$Foo1 = Foo:getInstance('instance1');
$Foo2 = Foo:getInstance('instance2');

```

Install via composer

```
{
    "require" : {
        "evo/patterns" : "~1.0"
    }
}

```

I plan to add a few more to this, as needed.

How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window.

**Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores.

**Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement.

**Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability.
