Latest release: [1.0.0-beta9](https://packagist.org/packages/puli/discovery#1.0.0-beta9)

PHP >= 5.3.9

The [Puli](http://puli.io) Discovery Component supports binding of Puli resources to *binding types*. Binding types can be defined with the `addBindingType()` method of the [`EditableDiscovery`](http://api.puli.io/latest/class-Puli.Discovery.Api.EditableDiscovery.html) interface:

```
use Puli\Discovery\Api\Type\BindingType;
use Puli\Discovery\Binding\Initializer\ResourceBindingInitializer;
use Puli\Discovery\InMemoryDiscovery;

$discovery = new InMemoryDiscovery(array(
    // $repo is a Puli\Repository\Api\ResourceRepository instance
    new ResourceBindingInitializer($repo),
));

$discovery->addBindingType(new BindingType('doctrine/xml-mapping'));
```

Resource Bindings
-----------------

[](#resource-bindings)

Resources in the repository can then be bound to the defined type by passing a `ResourceBinding` to `addBinding()`:

```
use Puli\Discovery\Binding\ResourceBinding;

$discovery->addBinding(new ResourceBinding('/app/config/doctrine/*.xml', 'doctrine/xml-mapping'));
```

With `findBindings()`, you can later retrieve all the bindings for the type:

```
foreach ($discovery->findBindings('doctrine/xml-mapping') as $binding) {
    foreach ($binding->getResources() as $resource) {
        // do something...
    }
}
```

The following [`Discovery`](http://api.puli.io/latest/class-Puli.Discovery.Api.Discovery.html) implementations are currently supported:

- [`InMemoryDiscovery`](http://api.puli.io/latest/class-Puli.Discovery.InMemoryDiscovery.html)
- [`KeyValueStoreDiscovery`](http://api.puli.io/latest/class-Puli.Discovery.KeyValueStoreDiscovery.html)
- [`NullDiscovery`](http://api.puli.io/latest/class-Puli.Discovery.NullDiscovery.html)

Read the [Resource Discovery](http://docs.puli.io/en/latest/discovery/introduction.html) guide in the Puli documentation to learn more about resource discovery.

Class Bindings
--------------

[](#class-bindings)

You can also bind classes to binding types. By convention, the common interface of all bound classes is used as binding type:

```
$discovery->addBindingType(new BindingType(Plugin::class));
```

Classes can be bound by adding `ClassBinding` instances:

```
use Puli\Discovery\Binding\ClassBinding;

$discovery->addBinding(new ClassBinding(MyPlugin::class, Plugin::class));
```

As before, use `findBindings()` to find all bindings for a binding type:

```
foreach ($discovery->findBindings(Plugin::class) as $binding) {
    $pluginClass = $binding->getClassName();
    $plugin = new $pluginClass();

    // do something...
}
```
