Vendor dkplus Package formica Short Description Formica allows to easily use the builder pattern in your projects e.g. to setup your test data. License
MIT
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.
Formica allows to easily use the builder pattern in your projects e.g. to setup your test data.
Installation
Formica can be easily installed by running composer require dkplus/formica.
Quick start
Lets assume that you have a class Acme\Issue for which you want to have a builder for.
It has some properties and can be constructed through a named constructor.
For a builder you need another class Acme\IssueBuilder which extends the base builder:
You can use the builder like this:
Explanations
The Dkplus\Formica\Builder expects three arguments:
The default arguments that should be passed to the constructing method.
The name of the static method that should be used to construct the object.
If null is given it will use the constructor of the object.
The class of the object. If null is given it will try to guess the class
by using the class of the builder and stripping the last 7 characters.
So if you name your builders <NameOfYourClass>Builder you don't need to
pass the class.
While the constructor of Dkplus\Formica\Builder is public, I advise to create
a static method that calls it and sets the default values.
All arguments that have been given with a key can be overriden by one of
withX() or andX() methods (both providing a fluent interface).
If you want some autocompletion I suggest to put some annotations on top of
your builder (see the example above).
