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 spray-serializer
SpraySerializer
Fast and easy serialization and deserialization of php objects.
Internals
Serialization is performed by attaching to a specific class scope using the Closure::bind method. To keep things fast, reflection is only used while generating the serialization code.
How to use
Let's start with a class to serialize. Note that the annotations hint the serializer, and that they're required for deserializing objects.
Then we'll initialize the serializer.
Now we can serialize almost any object to an array and back to an object.
Supported annotations
As the example above shows, the serializer uses default docblock annotations to determine the serialization strategy. The following annotations are supported:
Almost any object
There're some limitations to the implemented serialization method. For instance, deserializing a DateTime(Immutable) object is not possible. For this reason, specialized serializers are added. You'll need to add these to the SerializerRegistry in your application bootstrap like so:
Inheritance support
In order to support object inheritance (de)serialization, just the annotations is not enough. The ObjectTypeListener is required to enable this functionality:
_Note: Enabling this feature results in your data populated with '__type' => 'ClassName'._
Encryption support
When your application requires encryption you'll have to attach the EncryptionListener:
Caching methods
The library provides two methods of caching: array and file. The array cache is primarily useful for testing/development purposes. For production however, you're better off using the FileCache.
The file cache actually writes the generated serialization code to plain php files for later use (and therefore automatically cached in op-code cache).
Below is how you'd bootstrap the file cache for the serializer:
