modethirteen / xarray example snippets

// use XArray from scratch
$x1 = new XArray();

// set some values
$x1->setVal('foo/bar', 'baz');
$x1->setVal('qux', ['fred', 'quxx']);

// get some values
$result = $x1->getVal('foo/bar'); // 'baz'
$result = $x1->getVal('qux'); // ['fred', 'quxx']

// which key paths have been defined in the XArray?
$keys = $x1->getKeys(); // ['foo', 'foo/bar', 'qux']

// reduce output to the key paths that have values
$flattened = $x1->toFlattenedArray(); // ['foo/bar' => 'baz', 'qux' => ['fred', 'quxx']]

// get the array (the underlying array data structure)
$array1 = $x1->toArray();

// create a new XArray from the existing array
$x2 = new XArray($array1);

// override a value and set a new value
$x2->setVal('foo/bar', ['qux', 'baz']);
$x2->setVal('bar', 'foo');

// get some values
$result = $x2->getVal('foo/bar'); // ['qux', 'baz']
$result = $x2->getVal('bar'); // 'foo'

// we can get a value strictly as a string, if we are in strict typing mode!
// first we set some non-string values...
$x2->setVal('qwerty', true);
$x2->setVal('asdf', new class {
    public function __toString() : string {
        return 'zxcv';
    }
});

// ...and cast them to string!
$result = $x2->getString('qwerty'); // 'true'
$result = $x2->getString('asdf'); // 'zxcv'

// of course, string values themselves can be fetched as strict string types
$result = $x2->getString('foo/bar'); // 'qux'

// get the new array
$array2 = $x2->toArray();

// XArray does not mutate the source array
assert($array1 !== $array2);

// MutableXArray always [
      'bar',
      'baz'
  ]
