Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require igniphp/reflection-api

```

Reflection API
--------------

[](#reflection-api)

Licensed under MIT License.

Reflection api provides tools that allows to:

- read and write object's properties
- build classes on runtime
- retrieves closure's body
- instantiating objects without reflection api

### Reading object's properties

[](#reading-objects-properties)

```
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;

class TestClass
{
    private $test;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->test = 1;
    }
}

$instance = new TestClass();

ReflectionApi::readProperty($instance, 'test');
```

### Write object's properties

[](#write-objects-properties)

```
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;

class TestClass
{
    private $test;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->test = 1;
    }
}

$instance = new TestClass();

ReflectionApi::writeProperty($instance, 'test', 2);
```

### Create an instance

[](#create-an-instance)

```
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;

class TestClass
{
    private $test;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->test = 1;
    }
}

$instance = ReflectionApi::createInstance(TestClass::class);
```

### Building and loading class on runtime

[](#building-and-loading-class-on-runtime)

```
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi\RuntimeProperty;
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi\RuntimeMethod;

$class = ReflectionApi::createClass('TestClass');

$class->addProperty((new RuntimeProperty('test))->makePrivate());

$constructor = new RuntimeMethod('__construct');
$constructor->addBody(
    '$this->test = 1'
);

$getTest = new RuntimeMethod('getTest');
$getTest->setReturnType('string');
$getTest->addBody(
    'return $this->test'
);

$class->addMethod($constructor);
$class->addMethod($getTest);

$class->load();

$instance = $class->createInstance();

$instance instanceof 'TestClass';// true.
$instance->getTest();// 1
```
