Package name: `jooservices/dto` Latest stable release: `v1.0.8` Install ------- [](#install) ``` composer require jooservices/dto ``` Quick example ------------- [](#quick-example) ``` use DateTimeImmutable; use JOOservices\Dto\Attributes\MapFrom; use JOOservices\Dto\Core\Dto; final class UserDto extends Dto { public function __construct( public readonly string $id, #[MapFrom('email_address')] public readonly string $email, public readonly DateTimeImmutable $createdAt, ) {} } $user = UserDto::from([ 'id' => 'u_123', 'email_address' => 'john@example.com', 'createdAt' => '2026-01-15T10:30:00+00:00', ]); $payload = $user->toArray(); ``` What is supported today ----------------------- [](#what-is-supported-today) - `Dto` and `Data` - hydration from arrays, JSON strings, and simple public-property objects - scalar, enum, and `DateTimeInterface` casting - nested single DTO hydration - class-level polymorphic DTO hydration with `#[DiscriminatorMap]` - typed array hydration from common PHPDoc annotations such as `Type[]`, `array`, and `list` - fallback property defaults with `#[DefaultFrom]` - opt-in validation with attributes - serialization filtering and wrapping - lazy derived serialization through `ComputesLazyProperties` - `DataCollection` and `PaginatedCollection` Important current limitations ----------------------------- [](#important-current-limitations) - several declared attributes are still only partially wired into runtime behavior; `Computed`, `Deprecated`, `OptionalProperty`, and `Context::$globalPipeline` remain incomplete, and `Pipeline` support is limited to current property-level execution paths rather than a broader end-to-end pipeline system - `StrictType` now affects input shape enforcement and implicit casting rules, but related pipeline and schema behavior remains narrower than the declared attribute surface Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) Start with: - [Documentation Hub](./docs/README.md) - [Changelog](./CHANGELOG.md) - [AI Skills Usage Guide](./ai/skills/USAGE.md) - phpDocumentor config for future API reference generation: [`phpdoc.dist.xml`](./phpdoc.dist.xml) - [Installation](./docs/01-getting-started/01-installation.md) - [Quick Start](./docs/01-getting-started/02-quick-start.md) - [Risks, Legacy, and Gaps](./docs/05-maintenance/01-risks-legacy-and-gaps.md) AI Support ---------- [](#ai-support) This repository includes an AI skill pack for agents working in Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, JetBrains, and Antigravity. Start with: - [`AGENTS.md`](./AGENTS.md) - [`CLAUDE.md`](./CLAUDE.md) - [AI Skills Map](./ai/skills/README.md) - [AI Skills Usage Guide](./ai/skills/USAGE.md) The canonical skill source lives in [`.github/skills/`](./.github/skills/), with adapter layers for each supported AI environment. Development ----------- [](#development) ``` composer lint composer lint:all composer test composer test:coverage composer check composer ci ``` Contributor workflow details live in: - [Setup](./docs/04-development/01-setup.md) - [Contributing](./docs/04-development/07-contributing.md) - [CI/CD](./docs/04-development/05-ci-cd.md) - [Release Process](./docs/04-development/06-release-process.md) - [AI Skills](./docs/04-development/08-ai-skills.md) Approved Git flow summary: - normal feature and fix work branches from `develop` and PRs back into `develop` - release preparation uses `release/` from `develop`, then PRs into `master` - releases are tagged from `master` - `master` merges back into `develop` after release or hotfix completion Community --------- [](#community) - [Contributing](./CONTRIBUTING.md) - [Security Policy](./SECURITY.md) - [Code of Conduct](./CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) GitHub Actions and Services --------------------------- [](#github-actions-and-services) Current GitHub Actions coverage: - `CI`: security checks, linting, tests, 95% minimum statement coverage, coverage upload, and optional SonarQube Cloud analysis when `SONAR_TOKEN` is configured - `Release`: validate tags, create GitHub releases, trigger Packagist update - `PR Labeler`: apply labels to pull requests - `Semantic PR Title`: enforce pull request title format - `OpenSSF Scorecard`: publish scorecard results as SARIF - `Secret Scanning`: workflow file exists, but the `gitleaks` job is currently disabled External services currently used by workflows: - `Codecov` for coverage upload in [`ci.yml`](./.github/workflows/ci.yml) - `Packagist` update webhook in [`release.yml`](./.github/workflows/release.yml) - `GitHub Releases` and `GitHub Discussions` in [`release.yml`](./.github/workflows/release.yml) - `OpenSSF Scorecard` in [`scorecard.yml`](./.github/workflows/scorecard.yml) - `GitHub SARIF` upload through CodeQL infrastructure in [`scorecard.yml`](./.github/workflows/scorecard.yml) Important notes: - No workflow currently defines Docker-style `services:` containers such as MySQL, Redis, or PostgreSQL. - SonarQube Cloud analysis is present in `ci.yml`, but it only runs after tests pass and only when `SONAR_TOKEN` is available.
