Storm Method Overloader
=======================

[](#storm-method-overloader)

It's simple tool enabling overloading methods in convenient way by types and number of arguments like in other languages.

```
$userRepository = new UserRepository();
$userRepository->add('Michael','Jordan', 23);
$userRepository->add('Michael Jordan', 23);
$userRepository->add(new User("Michael", "Jordan", 23));
$userRepository->add(new Player("Michael", "Jordan", 23));
$userRepository->add(['fist_name' => 'Michael', 'last_name' => 'Jordan', 'number' => 23]);
```

### Installation

[](#installation)

```
composer require stormmore/method-overloader
```

### Usage

[](#usage)

Use `register` method to register overloaded methods with their arguments and run `invoke`.
In case of no proper method`InvalidArgumentException` will be thrown or you can define default behaviour with `onFailure` callback.

```
use \Storm\MethodOverload\MethodOverloader;

class UserRepository
{

    public function add(mixed ...$args): void
    {
            $addMethodOverloader = MethodOverloader::create($this)
            ->register($this->addByFirstNameLastNameAndNumber(...),'string', 'string', 'int')
            ->register($this->adddByUser(...), User::Class)
            ->register($this->addByPlayer(...), Player::class)
            ->register($this->addByArray(...), 'array')
            ->register($this->addNyNameAndNumber(...), 'string', 'int')
            ->onFailure(function() {
                throw new MyCustomException();
            });

        $addMethodOverloader->invoke($args);
    }

    private function addByFirstNameLastNameAndNumber(): void
    {
    }

    private function addNyNameAndNumber(string name, int number): void
    {
    }

    private function addByUser(User $user): void
    {
    }

    private function addByPlayer(Player $player): void
    {
    }

    private function addByArray($array): void
    {
    }
}
```
