PhpCommons
==========

[](#phpcommons)

Some common methods to ease the life of anonymous PHP developers

String
------

[](#string)

- **startsWith** Tests if a string starts with the specified prefix.
- **endsWith** Tests if a string ends with the specified suffix
- **camelize** Uppercases the first character of each word in a string
- **excerpt** Creates an excerpt from a text based on a phrase
- **truncate** Truncates a given string after a given length (if necessary)
- **highlight** Highlights (i.e. adds html-tags arround the keyword) a given keyword in a string
- **hashCode** Get the integer based hash code of a given string

Array
-----

[](#array)

- **insertElement** Adds an element into a array on the given position without replacing the old entry
- **removeElementByValue** Removes the given element from the array
- **mergeArrayValues** Creates an array of arrays from the two given arrays.
- **getPrevKey** Returns the previous key from an array
- **getNextKey** Returns the next key from an array
- **applyCallbackByPath** Applies a callback on a part of a multidimensional array defined by its path (i.e. keys)

Integer
-------

[](#integer)

- **intcmp** Compares two integers (similarly to `strcmp`) and returns whether the first argument is smaller, less or equal to the second argument.
- **isInteger** Checks if a given value can be interpreted as a "real" integer without commas or exponent parts (i.e. `1e10` is *not* treated as an integer).

Formatter
---------

[](#formatter)

### Byte

[](#byte)

- **prettyPrintSize** Pretty prints a given memory/file size (e.g. 1024 -> 1kB)

### Time

[](#time)

- **prettyPrintMicroTimeInterval** Pretty prints an interval specfied by two timestamps.
- **getRelativeTimeDifference** Get the relative difference between a given start time and end time.

HashCodeBuilder
---------------

[](#hashcodebuilder)

Allows building a hash code by chaining different values defining an individual hash.

```
$hashBuilder = new HashBuilder();
$hashCode = $hashBuilder
    ->append($item->getId())
    ->append($item->isEnabled())
    ->append($item->getName())
    ->toHashCode();
```
