Library to build objects and extract data out of them.

Build and inject data into an object
------------------------------------

[](#build-and-inject-data-into-an-object)

```
use Innmind\Reflection\Instanciate;
use Innmind\Immutable\{
    Map,
    Maybe,
};

final class Foo
{
    private int $foo;
    private mixed $bar;

    public function __construct(string $foo)
    {
        $this->foo = $foo;
    }
}

$object = (new Instanciate)(Foo::class, Map::of(
    ['foo', 42],
    ['bar', 'baz'],
)); // Maybe
```

This code will create a new `Foo` object and assign the property `foo` to `42` and `bar` to `'baz'`.

Extracting data out of an object
--------------------------------

[](#extracting-data-out-of-an-object)

```
use Innmind\Reflection\Extract;
use Innmind\Immutable\{
    Set,
    Maybe,
    Map,
};

$properties = (new Extract)($myObject, Set::of('foo', 'bar', 'baz')); // Maybe
```
