Immutable Setter
================

[](#immutable-setter)

Tiny utillity class that helps you making your classes immutable by adding *wither* methods.

*Inspired by Lombok's @Wither annotation.*

It lets you easily add `witherX` methods to clone object with modified one property.

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

[](#installation)

Use composer to get library from packagist:

```
$ php composer.phar require kamilwylegala/immutable-setter

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

1. Add `wither` field to your class.
2. Assign `new Wither($this, ["arg1", "arg2"])` to this field and provide constructor schema with proper order of arguments. You can also skip second argument and let `Wither` resolve constructor arguments automatically.
3. Add public `withArg1` method to your class and put:

```
return $this->wither->getInstance("arg1", $newArg1)

```

4. Running `$valueObject->withArg1($newArg1)` will create copy of your object with changed `$arg1` field.

### Example

[](#example)

```
use KamilWylegala\ImmutableSetter\Wither;

class Person
{

    private $name;
    private $age;

    private $wither;

    public function __construct($name, $age)
    {
        $this->name = $name;
        $this->age = $age;

        $this->wither = new Wither($this, ["name", "age"]); //Second param is optional.
    }

    public function withName($newName)
    {
        return $this->wither->getInstance("name", $newName);
    }

}
```
