Introduction

Utilities for casting values using the DataModel package.

Requirements

• PHP 8.1 or higher.
• The DataModel Composer package

Installation

Install Zerotoprod\DataModelHelper via Composer:

This will add the package to your project’s dependencies and create an autoloader entry for it.

Usage

Including the Trait

Include the DataModelHelper trait in your class to access helper methods:

Helper Methods

when

Use when to call a function based on a condition.

mapOf

Create a map of any type by using the DataModelHelper::mapOf() method.

Usage

In this case the mapOf() method returns an array of Alias instances.

This method will also work with enums.

Laravel Collection Example

The mapOf helper is designed to work will with the \Illuminate\Support\Collection class.

Coercing

Sometimes, an attribute may contain either a single element or an array of elements. By setting 'coerce' => true, you can ensure that single elements are coerced into an array.

Using a Custom Mapping Function

Specify your mapping function by setting the using option.

Specifying a Custom Mapping Method

By default, the map method is used to map over elements. You can specify a different method using the map_via option.

Deep Mapping

You can set the level for mapping deep arrays.

KeyBy

Key an array by an element value by using the key_by argument.

This also supports deep mapping.

Note: this only applies to arrays.

Map

Call a function for that value.

Note: This does not work with arrays.

pregReplace

Use pregReplace to perform a regular expression search and replace.

pregMatch

Use pregMatch to perform a regular expression match.

isUrl

Use isUrl to validate an url.

isEmail

Use isEmail to validate an email.

isMultiple

Use isMultiple to validate a value is a multiple of another.
