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.

SERIALIZER
A minimal, framework-agnostic serialization contract for PHP 8.4+.
gilsegura/serializer defines a single generic contract, SerializableInterface,
that objects implement to convert themselves to and from a plain array, plus a
Serializer facade that wraps an object together with its class name so it can
be restored later as its exact concrete type.
Features
- PHP 8.4+
- A generic
SerializableInterface<TAttributes>contract:serialize()/deserialize() - Per-implementation attribute shapes via
@implements, fully understood by static analysis - A
Serializerfacade producing a self-describing{class, attributes}structure - No dependencies beyond PHP itself
Installation
The contract
SerializableInterface is generic over the shape of its attributes,
TAttributes. Each implementation declares its own concrete shape with an
@implements tag, so static analysis knows the exact type of every attribute on
both sides of the round trip:
Because the shape is declared in @implements, deserialize() reads
$attributes['x'] as a typed int with no casts or assertions: the analyser
already knows it is an int.
TAttributes is constrained to array, so an implementation may serialize to a
map (an associative object) or to a list:
The Serializer facade
Serializer wraps an object with its class name, producing a self-describing
structure that can be stored or transported and later restored to the exact same
type:
Because the class name travels with the data, deserialize() returns the
original concrete type rather than a generic interface. This makes the format
portable across process boundaries (queues, caches, storage) while staying
type-safe.
Composing serializable objects
An object's serialize() may delegate to nested serializable objects, building
up a tree. Each level declares its own shape, so the whole structure stays typed
end to end. This makes SerializableInterface a good fit for value objects,
domain events, and read models that need a stable, self-describing wire format.
