{
    "require": {
        "data-values/serialization": "1.*"
    }
}

Manual

Get the code of this package, either via git, or some other means. Also get all dependencies. You can find a list of the dependencies in the "require" section of the composer.json file. Then take care of autoloading the classes defined in the src directory.

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 Github Actions.

Initial release with these features:

• DataValues\Serializers\DataValueSerializer - Adapter that fits the toArray method of DataValue objects to the Serializer interface. This allows users to move to using the Serializer interface and remove their exposure to how serialization of DataValues is implemented.
• DataValues\Deserializers\DataValueDeserializer - Adapter that fits the newFromArray method of DataValues objects to the Deserializer interface. This allows users to remove the knowledge they have of how deserialization is implemented and break their dependency on DataValueFactory.
