FAQ
Example:
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 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 construct-named-parameters
eclipxe/construct-named-parameters - Helper functions to create objects using an array as named parameters
PHP does not have the option to call a method or instance an object using named parameters. This is a library I use in other projects to simplify the task of create objects based on named parameters.
Instalation
Use composer to install this library composer require eclipxe/construct-named-parameters
Basic use
Why this library exists?
My motivation start in a project that contains a lot of domain objects that need to be instantiated and commonly I had all the information in one single array. This library result very useful in those cases.
It even contains a method that put all parameters and values as lowercase to easily match the constructor requirement. Be aware that in some weird cases a constructor can contain two parameters with the same name but in different case.
How it knows the constructor arguments?
The only way I found is using \Reflection.
The bad is that reflection can be expensive.
The good part is that the function \ConstructNamedParameters\Builder::retrieveArguments has a cache
of the name of the class, so, it will only investigate the constructor the first time and the second
will use the cached information.
The cache can not be cleaned or forced to reload, and there is no need to do it. A constructor of a class cannot change once it exists, right?
