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.

PHP Enum implementation inspired from SplEnum
Maintenance for this project is supported via Tidelift.
Why?
First, and mainly, SplEnum is not integrated to PHP, you have to install the extension separately.
Using an enum instead of class constants provides the following advantages:
- You can use an enum as a parameter type:
function setAction(Action $action) { - You can use an enum as a return type:
function getAction() : Action { - You can enrich the enum with methods (e.g.
format,parse, …) - You can extend the enum to add new values (make your enum
finalto prevent it) - You can get a list of all the possible values (see below)
This Enum class is not intended to replace class constants, but only to be used when it makes sense.
Installation
Declaration
Usage
As you can see, static methods are automatically implemented to provide quick access to an enum value.
One advantage over using class constants is to be able to use an enum as a parameter type:
Documentation
__construct()The constructor checks that the value exist in the enum__toString()You canecho $myValue, it will display the enum value (value of the constant)getValue()Returns the current value of the enumgetKey()Returns the key of the current value on Enumequals()Tests whether enum instances are equal (returnstrueif enum values are equal,falseotherwise)
Static methods:
toArray()method Returns all possible values as an array (constant name in key, constant value in value)keys()Returns the names (keys) of all constants in the Enum classvalues()Returns instances of the Enum class of all Enum constants (constant name in key, Enum instance in value)isValid()Check if tested value is valid on enum setisValidKey()Check if tested key is valid on enum setsearch()Return key for searched value
Static methods
Static method helpers are implemented using __callStatic().
If you care about IDE autocompletion, you can either implement the static methods yourself:
or you can use phpdoc (this is supported in PhpStorm for example):
