Fast
----

[](#fast)

It doesn't use the \\Reflection.

Before the Cure
---------------

[](#before-the-cure)

```
class Cart
{
    private $a;
    private $b;
    private $c;

    private function __construct($a, $b, $c)
    {
        $this->a = $a;
        $this->b = $b;
        $this->c = $c;
    }

    public static function startShipping(StartShippingData $data)
    {
        return new self($data->a, $data->b, null);
    }

    public static function addProduct(AddProductData $data)
    {
        return new self(null, $data->b, $data->cs);
    }
}
```

After the Cure
--------------

[](#after-the-cure)

```
class Cart
{
    use PropertyTrait;

    private $a;
    private $b;
    private $c;

    private function __construct($dto)
    {
        $this->fillProperties($dto);
    }

    public static function startShipping(StartShippingData $data)
    {
        return new self($data);
    }

    public static function addProduct(AddProductData $data)
    {
        return new self($data);
    }
}

class StartShippingData
{
    public $a;
    public $b;
}

class AddProductData
{
    public $b;
    public $c;
}
```

From Request
------------

[](#from-request)

Do you want to map an object from the `Request`?

```
use Liuggio\Filler\HTTPPropertyTrait;

class StartShippingDTO
{
    use HTTPPropertyTrait;

    private $developer;

    public function __construct(Request $request)
    {
        $this->fillPropertiesFromRequest($request);
    }
...
}

Class Controller
{
    public function startShippingAction(Request $request)
    {
        $startShipping = new StartShippingDTO($request);

        if ($this->isValid($startShipping)) ...
    }
}
```

### Copy 2 objects

[](#copy-2-objects)

You can also use it for copy properties between 2 objects

```
use HTTPPropertyTrait;
$to = new DTOFromRequest();
$this->fillPropertiesFromRequest($request, $to);
// the $to object has all the var from the Request
```

Differences?
------------

[](#differences)

We needed it for an edge case, but then we have decided to release it because if you are used to develop with the `Command` pattern, this lib could help you to develop faster app.

-------
