OVERVIEW
--------

[](#overview)

`pop-data` provides a streamlined way to convert common data types. With it, you can easily give it some native PHP data and quickly produce a serialized version of that data in a common data type, such as CSV, JSON, SQL, XML or YAML. Or, conversely, you can give it some serialized data, an it will auto-detect the format and convert it to native PHP data.

`pop-data`is a component of the [Pop PHP Framework](http://www.popphp.org/).

INSTALL
-------

[](#install)

Install `pop-data` using Composer.

```
composer require popphp/pop-data

```

BASIC USAGE
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

### Serialize Data

[](#serialize-data)

```
$phpData = [
    [
        'first_name' => 'Bob',
        'last_name'  => 'Smith'
    ],
    [
        'first_name' => 'Jane',
        'last_name'  => 'Smith'
    ]
];

$data = new Pop\Data\Data($phpData);

$csvString   = $data->serialize('csv');
$jsonString  = $data->serialize('json');
$sqlString   = $data->serialize('sql');
$xmlString   = $data->serialize('xml');
$yamlString  = $data->serialize('yaml');
```

The $csvString variable now contains:

```
first_name,last_name
Bob,Smith
Jane,Smith

```

The $jsonString variable now contains:

```
[
    {
        "first_name": "Bob",
        "last_name": "Smith"
    },
    {
        "first_name": "Jane",
        "last_name": "Smith"
    }
]

```

The $sqlString variable now contains:

```
INSERT INTO data (first_name, last_name) VALUES
('Bob', 'Smith'),
('Jane', 'Smith');

```

The $xmlString variable now contains:

```

    Bob
    Smith

    Jane
    Smith

```

The $yamlString variable now contains:

```
---
- first_name: Bob
  last_name: Smith
- first_name: Jane
  last_name: Smith
...

```

### Unserialize Data

[](#unserialize-data)

You can either pass the data object a direct string of serialized data or a file containing a string of serialized data. It will detect which one it is and parse it accordingly.

##### String

[](#string)

```
$csv     = new Pop\Data\Data($csvString);
$phpData = $csv->unserialize();
```

##### File

[](#file)

```
$xml     = new Pop\Data\Data('/path/to/file.xml');
$phpData = $xml->unserialize();
```

### Convert Between Data Types

[](#convert-between-data-types)

```
$csv = new Pop\Data\Data($csvString);
$xml = $csv->convert('xml');
```

### Write to File

[](#write-to-file)

```
$phpData = [ ... ];

$data = new Pop\Data\Data($phpData);
$data->serialize('csv');
$data->writeToFile('/path/to/file.csv');
```

### Output to HTTP

[](#output-to-http)

```
$phpData = [ ... ];

$data = new Pop\Data\Data($phpData);
$data->serialize('csv');
$data->outputToHttp();
```

##### Force download of file

[](#force-download-of-file)

```
$phpData = [ ... ];

$data = new Pop\Data\Data($phpData);
$data->serialize('csv');
$data->outputToHttp('my-file.csv', true);
```
