Using an enum instead of class constants provides the following advantages: - You can use an enum as a parameter type: `function setAction(Action $action) {` - You can use an enum as a return type: `function getAction() : 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. Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require gusarov112/php-enum ``` Declaration ----------- [](#declaration) ``` use Gusarov112\Enum\Enum; /** * Action enum */ class Action extends Enum { private const VIEW = 'view'; private const EDIT = 'edit'; } ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` $action = new Action(Action::VIEW); ``` One advantage over using class constants is to be able to use an enum as a parameter type: ``` function setAction(Action $action) { // ... } ``` Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) - `__construct()` The constructor checks that the value exist in the enum - `__toString()` You can `echo $myValue`, it will display the enum value (value of the constant) - `getValue()` Returns the current value of the enum - `getKey()` Returns the key of the current value on Enum - `equals()` Tests whether enum instances are equal (returns `true` if enum values are equal, `false` otherwise) Static methods: - `toArray()` method Returns all possible values as an array (constant name in key, constant value in value) - `keys()` Returns the names (keys) of all constants in the Enum class - `values()` Returns instances of the Enum class of all Enum constants (constant name in key, Enum instance in value) - `isValid()` Check if tested value is valid on enum set - `isValidKey()` Check if tested key is valid on enum set - `search()` Return key for searched value ### Health Score 24 — LowBetter than 32% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity4 Limited adoption so far Community20 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity50 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
