Informations about the package alof-lib
alof-lib
(This is a WIP project!)
PHP array-like object functions library ("alof-lib"). Type-hinted functions for array-like objects, just like those for native arrays. Think of this library as a polyfill of those useful functions for array-like objects, so that you may write clean code with array-like objects.
An array-like object ("ALO") is defined to be implements ArrayAccess
and implements Traversable
. Examples of array-like objects include:
- ArrayObject (since PHP 5)
- ArrayIterator (since PHP 5)
- SplObjectStorage (since PHP 5.1)
- SplDoublyLinkedList (since PHP 5.3)
- SplFixedArray (since PHP 5.3)
- SplStack (since PHP 5.3)
- SplQueue (since PHP 5.3)
- WeakMap (since PHP 8)
- ... and perhaps more
A PHP array
is NOT an ALO. It is still an array.
Latest version requires PHP 8.1+.
See the change log in the CHANGELOG.md
file.
Notes and Disclaimers
- ALO functions aim to be faithful user-land reproductions of their array function counterparts, but there might be slight differences between both sides
- Some ALO functions may not make sense depending on your exact ALO implementation; use judgement before you use the ALO functions
