A library to read/write values from/to objects and arrays.

It is similar to [symfony/property-access](https://github.com/symfony/property-access), but is built in a more lightweight way and therefore has less sophisticated syntax.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Read properties from objects/arrays
- Write properties from objects/arrays
- Built-in support for camel-case getters and setters
- Can be extended with your own access strategies

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require scheb/property-access
```

How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

```
$valueObject = ...; // Array or object

$strategies = [
    new \Scheb\PropertyAccess\Strategy\ArrayAccessStrategy(),
    new \Scheb\PropertyAccess\Strategy\ObjectPropertyAccessStrategy(),
    new \Scheb\PropertyAccess\Strategy\ObjectGetterSetterAccessStrategy(),
];

$accessor = new \Scheb\PropertyAccess\PropertyAccess($strategies);

// Returns the value or null
$accessor->getPropertyValue($valueObject, 'propertyName');

// Returns the modified value object or throws FailedSettingPropertyException
$accessor->setPropertyValue($valueObject, 'propertyName', 'newValue');
```

How to extend
-------------

[](#how-to-extend)

To create your own access strategies, implement `Scheb\PropertyAccess\Strategy\PropertyAccessStrategyInterface` and pass in an instance of that class to the constructor argument `$propertyAccessStrategies` of `Scheb\PropertyAccess\PropertyAccess`.

Contribute
----------
