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.

Informations about the package insight

Insight

Latest Version on Packagist PHP Version GitHub Workflow Status Buy The World a Tree

code-distortion/insight is a PHP library that allows you to access protected and private object methods and properties, as if they were public.

This might be useful when testing. It might be a good idea, or it might not. It's up to you.

Note: Using Insight for purposes other than testing is probably a code smell.

Installation

Install the package via composer:

Usage

Instantiate an Insight object:

$testObject will then act as if it is the original object, but gives you access to its protected and private methods and properties as well.

Read and write protected and private properties:

Call protected and private methods:

These can be useful while testing your code with phpunit:

Abstract classes

You can test abstract classes (and classes whose constructor is not public) by passing the class when instantiating an Insight object.

Note: When instantiating Insight with a class like this (instead of an object) you will only be able to access it's static methods and properties.

Note: To test other functionality of an abstract class you will need to have a concrete class that extends the abstract class, and use that instead.

Static methods and properties

PHP doesn't have __getStatic() or __setStatic() magic methods either which would help facilitate accessing protected properties.

Instead, Insight lets you access static methods and properties in the same way as regular methods and properties. Just add StaticProp or StaticMethod after the property or method name respectively:

Misc

You can access the underlying object or class by accessing the ->insight property:
