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.

Informations about the package distance

An advanced library offering type safety and identity with Distance

Identity

This library uses some tricks to intern values so that two distances are always equal to one another, no matter the distance in time or space.

Type Safety

You can ensure nobody will accidentally confuse inches with centimeters or Nautical Miles with Miles:

Conversions and Math

You can convert between units and even perform operations, like sorting and arithmetic:

Support for Crell\Serde

You cannot serialize/deserialize/clone Distance objects. However, if you use something like Serde, you can still serialize your value objects:

The above will be serialized (and deserialized) from:

Units

There are several distance units supported

SI Units

Imperial Units

Misc.

FAQ

How far can I go?

The base unit is in micrometers, so on a 64-bit system you can go ~60AU with micrometer accuracy. For reference, Pluto is usually about 40 AU away from the sun.

If you are limited to 32-bit systems, this is not for you. The maximum distance on a 32-bit system is just a couple of meters.

Why does this exist?

I don’t like magic numbers.

How performant is this?

The main overhead is in autoloading and function-call overhead. Thus, if realtime performance is a concern, you might want to stick to magic numbers.
