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.
Reify is a small package used to hydrate objects. This can be useful when implementing API clients or creating
abstraction layers in your application.
Installation
Insert warning about production usage here
composer require reify/reify:"dev-master"
Getting started
Let's say you have a dataset containing information about a person.
You want to use this data in your application, however just using json_decode would result in a plain object with no
typing and no way to add some functionality to them.
Reify can automatically map the data to any class you want. Let's try to map our data by using our Person class which i defined below.
Neat right? Let's dissect what's happening here.
Conclusion
Reify is a concept I've been tinkering with over the years. It's a simple concept that I use very often in the projects
I am working on.
This package is build with PHP 8 features for me to learn about them and fiddling with the new Attributes. Turns out I
love metaprogramming and creating developer tools with them.
Building Reify i also had a chance to meet PestPHP and learn more about writing tests for my code.
