Tested up to PHP 8.5.

Example:
--------

[](#example)

### Check if string is serialized:

[](#check-if-string-is-serialized)

```
$Serializer = new \Rundiz\Serializer\Serializer();

$serialized_string = 's:54:"this is a string. สตริงภาษาไทย";';
$faked_serialized_string = 's:12:"fake serialized string";';

var_dump($Serializer->isSerialized($serialized_string);// true
var_dump($Serializer->isSerialized($faked_serialized_string);// false
```

Or you can use static methods from `\Rundiz\Serializer\SerializerStatic` class with the same method as `\Rundiz\Serializer\Serializer` class.

```
$serialized_string = 's:54:"this is a string. สตริงภาษาไทย";';

var_dump(\Rundiz\Serializer\SerializerStatic::isSerialized($serialized_string));// true
```

### Check first if data is not serialized then serialize it:

[](#check-first-if-data-is-not-serialized-then-serialize-it)

```
$raw_data = array('mango', 'tree' => array('mango', 'banana'));

echo $Serializer->maybeSerialize($raw_data);// a:2:{i:0;s:5:"mango";s:4:"tree";a:2:{i:0;s:5:"mango";i:1;s:6:"banana";}}
echo \Rundiz\Serializer\SerializerStatic::maybeSerialize($raw_data);// a:2:{i:0;s:5:"mango";s:4:"tree";a:2:{i:0;s:5:"mango";i:1;s:6:"banana";}}
```

### Check first if data is not unserialized then unserialize it:

[](#check-first-if-data-is-not-unserialized-then-unserialize-it)

```
$serialized_data = 'i:-5436;';

echo $Serializer->maybeUnserialize($serialized_data);// -5436 (integer)
echo \Rundiz\Serializer\SerializerStatic::maybeUnserialize($serialized_data);// -5436 (integer)
echo \Rundiz\Serializer\SerializerStatic::maybeUnserialize(-5436);// -5436 (integer)
```

### Working with JSON:

[](#working-with-json)

```
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded('"Hello world"'));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded('012345'));// false
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded('true'));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded('false'));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded('null'));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded(true));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded(false));// false
var_dump($Serializer->isJSONEncoded(null));// false
```

### Working with base64:

[](#working-with-base64)

```
var_dump($Serializer->isBase64Encoded(5555));// false
var_dump($Serializer->isBase64Encoded('NTU1NQ=='));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isBase64Encoded('test'));// false
var_dump($Serializer->isBase64Encoded('dGVzdA=='));// true
var_dump($Serializer->isBase64Encoded(null));// false
```
