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 metadata
Metadata management library in PHP
Overview
This library provides utilities for metadata loading, management and retrieval for PHP classes, methods and properties.
Installation
Install with composer
Usage
A metadata factory responsible for retrieving metadatas for a given class.
To create a metadata factory you can implement MetadataFactoryInterface
on your own class or extend the AbstractMetadataFactory.
This allows you to specify which implementation of ClassMetadataInterface
will be used for your metadata simply extending the createMetadata method.
If you extend the AbstractMetadataFactory class (or use MetadataFactory class
which creates a ClassMetadata instance for class metadatas), you have to create
your metadata loader class implementing LoaderInterface.
If more than one source is available for your metadata (Annotations, YAMLs, XMLs,
etc.) you can use the ChainLoader class, adding your loaders to it.
Validation
When a metadata is loaded the factory validate method is called with the newly loaded
metadata as argument and the Kcs\Metadata\Event\ClassMetadataLoadedEvent event is dispatched
(if an event dispatcher is present).
You can extend validate or listen for the metadata loaded event and check
for metadata validity. If a validation error occurs you have to throw an
InvalidMetadataException.
Metadata classes
You can extend the provided classes ClassMetadata, MethodMetadata and PropertyMetadata
to build your metadata information.
By default, all the public properties are serialized in cache (if cache is
present). You can customize this behaviour by extending the __sleep method
of the metadata classes, returning an array of serialized properties.
