Collection
----------

[](#collection)

> Collection and Aggregation library for PHP8.2+

Create object collections and be in control of iteration and access.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

[](#create-object-collections-and-be-in-control-of-iteration-and-access)

- You can either extend the abstract or implement and use the interfaces and traits.
- Aggregation is simple; it clears the content of the collections!

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To use a Collection, make sure you create or instantiate:

```
$collection = new ItemCollection("test", [
    new Item("1", 1, 1),
    new Item("1", 1, 1),
    new Item("1", 1, 1),
    new Item("1", 1, 1),
]);
-----------------------------------------------
$collection = new class () extends Collection
{
    public function getClass(): string
    {
        return Item::class;
    }
};

```

Aggregations are possible in the same fashion as Collections:

```
$agg = new ItemAggregation("bliep");
$agg->addCollection(new ItemCollection("test", [new Item("item", 1, 1)]), false);

```

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

- Don't use stdClass if you want to serialize; PHP will not allow it.
