Informations about the package get-from
get-from
Function to retrieve values from objects without painfully checking if the value isset
. Inspired by and ported from

, you must do something like this:
Enough already! get-from provides a better way:
get_from
is specially handy when dealing with deeply nested objects like those generated by SimpleXML.
Installation
Through composer:
Usage
get_in

:

- Initial release
Inspiration
This library is a complete ripoff of Igor Wiedler's get-in library. Even this README file is largely inspired by Igors work. Scandalous.
I created this library/function when I wanted to clean up the code dealing with XML from an external web service and I realised that get-in
only works for arrays and not for objects.
