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

[](#installation)

Use [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) to install this package:

```
composer require narrowspark/pretty-array
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use Narrowspark\PrettyArray\PrettyArray;

$prettyArray = new PrettyArray();
```

If you just pass a array you will get this output.

```
/**
 * This is the output.
 *
 * [
 *     0 => 1,
 * ]
 */
$prettyArray->print([1]);
```

To let the array output start from 4 spaces, just change the indent level.

```
/**
 * This is the output.
 *
 *     [
 *         0 => 1,
 *     ]
 */
$prettyArray->print([1], 2);
```

You can add a type resolver to change the value output.

All supported types can be found on [php.net](http://php.net/manual/en/function.gettype.php)

```
$prettyArray->setResolver('object', function($value) {
    return 'foo'
});

/**
 * This is the output.
 *
 * [
 *    0 => 'foo',
 * ]
 */
$prettyArray->print(
    [
        0 => function() {
            return 'foo';
        },
    ],
);
```

-------

[](#testing)
