Download the PHP package simbiat/arrayhelpers without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package simbiat/arrayhelpers. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package arrayhelpers

Array Helpers

Set of useful functions to work with arrays, split into classes based on the type of operation.

Checkers

Functions to check if something is true or not.

isMultiDimensional

Checks if an array is multidimensional, essentially if all of its values are arrays. If $equal_length is true, will also check that all the arrays are of the same length and will throw an error if it's not the case. If $all_scalar is true, and the array is not multidimensional, the function will also check if all values in the array are scalar, and throw an error if at least one of them is not.

isAssociative

Checks if an array is associative, that is if there is at least one key that's a string (PHP will convert numeric keys to integers by design and will not allow other data types).

isAllScalar

Checks if an array consists only of scalar values or not.

Converters

Functions to convert something to something else.

multiToSingle

Converts a multidimensional array to "flat" (or "flatter") one. Essentially a array_column, but also uses array_combine and array_keys to preserve the keys.

dbfToArray

Converts contents of a DBF file to an array.

attributesToArray

Converts \DOMNode or \Dom\Node into an array with a set of attributes, present in the node, as the array's keys. If $null is set to true empty attributes will be replaced with null (instead of empty string). You can also pass a list of attributes in $extra_attributes, which will be added to all resulting elements, if they do not have that attribute. Extra attributes are added as either an empty string or a null if $null is true.

toMultiArray

Turns a regular array to a multidimensional one by turning provided keys into one of the columns. It will turn an array like

To an array like

if you provide the below array as $keys:

arrayToProperties

"Converts" an array to an object's properties (just sets their values to those from the array). Useful when you need to populate them based on results from some function, for example, a SELECT from database. Only values with string keys will be processed.

If $skip array is passed to the function and a key from $array is present there, it will be skipped. If $strict is set to true, and a property does not exist in the object, an exception will be thrown.

Editors

Functions that somehow edit the array content.

digitToKey

Replaces a multidimensional array's values with values from a specific column. With PHP updates this has become a wrapper for array_column, but $key_unset set to true allows you to remove the chose column after rekeying.

ColumnsConversion

Allows casting values in a column (or set of columns) to a specific type. Supported values for $type are: int/integer, bool/boolean, float/double/real, string, array, object. Casting is done by native functions.

RemoveByValue

Simple function that removes all elements with a certain value ($remove_value) and optionally re-keys it if $rekey is `true (useful for an indexed array, useless for associative ones).

setKeyPath

Allows recursively setting a key path based on logic from StackOverflow. Useful for "generating" arrays of a specific shape or updating existing ones.
$path is an array where each key is part of a new path with format like this:

It is meant to be "converted" and result in

Parts of the path are created only if they are not present already.
$value is the value that will be assigned to the newly created path. $array is passed by reference.

moveToSubarray

Function to move keys into a subarray. For example, you have a key like $array['key'], but you want to remove it and have it as $array['subarray']['key'] - then use this function. Purely for data formatting.
$new_key_path requires the same format as $path in setKeyPath(). $array is passed by reference.

renameColumn

Rename a column in a multidimensional array. $array is passed by reference.

Sorters

Functions to sort arrays (just one for now).

multiArrSort

Function to sort a multidimensional array by values in a column. Can be "reversed" to sort from larger to smaller (descending order), if $desc is set to true.

Splitters

Functions to split arrays into parts.

topAndBottom

Function that splits the array to 2 representing first X and last X rows from it, providing a way to get "Top X" and its counterpart. If $rows is less than 1 or the array size is less than $rows * 2, then function will try to split the array evenly. Resulting array will have top and bottom keys with respective rows, but if the array has only one element, an exception will be thrown.

splitByKey

Splits a multidimensional array by values from a column. Useful to reduce the number of travels to a database. Instead of doing 2+ queries separately, we do just one query and then split the results to several arrays in code. Turns an array like this:

to this:

If $keep_key is set to true will retain the original column in all the rows. If $case_insensitive is true will do mb_strtolower() on all the keys from the column to ensure correct splitting (that's the case where you may want to retain the original value of the key, too).
If $new_keys is empty (default), then array_column will be used to get the keys for the resulting array. However, if a list of integers or strings (or mix, which is not recommended) is provided, it will act as a filter, discarding rows, which have the column's value, that's not in the list.
