Introduction ------------ [](#introduction) This package is helpful to validate complex data types like complex arrays and to comply with DocBlock declarations (static code analysis tools like PHPStan or Psalm). Uses and throws exceptions from [ixnode/php-exception](https://github.com/ixnode/php-exception) as a "one-liner". Instead of using the following code: ``` if (!is_array($value)) { throw new TypeInvalidException('array', gettype($this->value)); } ``` just use this one: ``` $checkedArray = (new Checker($value))->checkArray(); ``` Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require ixnode/php-checker ``` ``` vendor/bin/php-checker -V ``` ``` php-checker 0.1.0 (12-30-2022 18:08:35) - Björn Hempel ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Example 1 [](#example-1) ``` use Ixnode\PhpChecker\Checker; ``` ``` $array = (new Checker(.0))->checkFloat(); ``` ### Example 2 [](#example-2) ``` use Ixnode\PhpChecker\CheckerArray; ``` ``` $array = (new CheckerArray([new Checker(123), new Checker(456), new Checker(678)])->checkClass(Checker::class); ``` ### Example 3 [](#example-3) ``` use Ixnode\PhpChecker\CheckerClass; ``` ``` $array = (new CheckerClass(new Checker(123)))->check(Checker::class); ``` ### Example 4 [](#example-4) ``` use Ixnode\PhpChecker\CheckerJson; ``` ``` $array = (new CheckerJson('{"1": 1, "2": 2, "3": 3}'))->check(); ``` Available checkers ------------------ [](#available-checkers) ### Class `Ixnode\PhpChecker\Checker` [](#class-ixnodephpcheckerchecker) Checks general data type specific properties.
