Download the PHP package ask/serialization without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package ask/serialization. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Installation

You can use Composer to download and install this package as well as its dependencies. Alternatively you can simply clone the git repository and take care of loading yourself.

To add this package as a local, per-project dependency to your project, simply add a dependency on ask/serialization to your project's composer.json file. Here is a minimal example of a composer.json file that just defines a dependency on Ask 1.0:

{
    "require": {
        "ask/serialization": "1.0.*"
    }
}

Library structure

The Ask language objects can all be serialized to a generic format from which the objects can later be reconstructed. This is done via a set of Serializers/Serializer implementing objects. These objects turn for instance a Query object into a data structure containing only primitive types and arrays. This data structure can thus be readily fed to json_encode, serialize, or the like. The process of reconstructing the objects from such a serialization is provided by objects implementing the Deserializers/Deserializer interface.

Serializers can be obtained via an instance of SerializerFactory and deserializers can be obtained via an instance of DeserializerFactory. You are not allowed to construct these serializers and deserializers directly yourself or to have any kind of knowledge of them (ie type hinting). These objects are internal to the Ask library and might change name or structure at any time. All you are allowed to know when calling $serializerFactory->newQuerySerializer() is that you get back an instance of Serializers\Serializer.

Tests

This library comes with a set up PHPUnit tests that cover all non-trivial code. You can run these tests using the PHPUnit configuration file found in the root directory. The tests can also be run via TravisCI, as a TravisCI configuration file is also provided in the root directory.

Ask has been written by Jeroen De Dauw as Wikimedia Germany employee for the Wikidata project.
