**Spintax** is a library which offers implementation of some commonly used patterns used in **Symfony2** DI.

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

[](#installation)

This library is provided as [Composer package](https://packagist.org/packages/bjoernffm/spintax). To install it simply execute the following command:

```
composer require bjoernffm/spintax

```

**Note:** This library requires **PHP 7.2+**.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The simplest usage that will mostly fulfill your needs is to simple parse the spintax string and generate random variation of it:

```
use bjoernffm\Spintax\Parser;

$spintax = Parser::parse('Schrödinger’s Cat is {dead|alive}.');
$string = $spintax->generate();
```

But there is much more that than that in our library. First of all nested structures are supported:

```
use bjoernffm\Spintax\Parser;

$spintax = Parser::parse('I {love {PHP|Java|C|C++|JavaScript|Python}|hate Ruby}.');
$string = $spintax->generate();
```

Still not finished! With our brilliant library you can detect the path used to generate given variant and re-use it later:

```
use bjoernffm\Spintax\Parser;

$path = [];

$spintax = Parser::parse('I {love {PHP|Java|C|C++|JavaScript|Python}|hate Ruby}.');
// since $path is empty, random values will be used for missing indices and $path will be filled with them
$string = $spintax->generate($path);

// from now you can use $path to re-create the same combination
// all these calls will keep returning same string value
$spintax->generate($path);
$spintax->generate($path);
$spintax->generate($path);
$spintax->generate($path);

// this will force generating "I love Java."
$path = [0, 1];
$spintax->generate($path);
```

Paths are counted from 0, each entry is next step.

You can also use partial paths to define just the starting path and all missing parts will be choosen randomly:

```
use bjoernffm\Spintax\Parser;

$path = [0];

$spintax = Parser::parse('I {love {PHP|Java|C|C++|JavaScript|Python}|hate Ruby}.');
// this will generate one of "I love {}." variants
$string = $spintax->generate($path);
```

For all this there is a shortcut method `Parser::replicate()` (you can use comma-separated number in a single string as second argument in this shortcut method):

```
use bjoernffm\Spintax\Parser;

echo Parser::replicate('I {love {PHP|Java|C|C++|JavaScript|Python}|hate Ruby}.', '0,0');
```
