DR Utility Classes

A library with everyday use classes and methods:

Arrays

• first - Get the first element of an array, exception otherwise.
• firstOrNull - Get the first element of an array, null otherwise.
• last - Get the last element of an array, exception otherwise.
• lastOrNull - Get the last element of an array, null otherwise.
• find - Find the first element in an array that matches a predicate, exception otherwise.
• findOrNull - Find the first element in an array that matches a predicate, null otherwise.
• flatten - Recursively flattens an array returning an array with all the elements.
• contains - Test if the given value is contained within items. Supports EquatableInterface.
• diff - Get the difference between two arrays. Supports ComparableInterface.
• equals - Tests if two arrays have equal contents, ignoring order. Supports ComparableInterface.
• explode - Explode a string or null into an array, with exploding empty string to empty array.
• map - Similar to array_map but with support for iterable, and receive key as second argument in the callback.
• mapAssoc - Map an array to a new array using a callback, preserving keys.
• reindex - Reindex an array with new keys based on the result of the callback.
• groupBy - Group items by the given return value of the callback.
• renameKey - Rename the string key of an array element.
• remove - Remove an element from an array based on the callback. Supports EquatableInterface.
• removeKey - Remove an element from an array based on the key.
• removeKeys - Remove multiple elements from an array based on the keys.
• removeTypes - Filters an array by removing all values that match the provided types.
• removeNull - Filters an array by removing all null values.
• search - Find the key of an element in an array or false otherwise. Supports EquatableInterface.
• unique - Remove duplicate values from an array. Supports EquatableInterface.
• wrap - Wrap a value in an array, unless it is already an array.
• toJson - Converts an array into a json string.
• fromJson - Converts a json string into an array.

Assert

Fluent assertion methods, inspired by webmozart/assert:

• null
• notNull
• isArray
• inArray
• isCallable
• resource
• object
• scalar
• integer
• numeric
• float
• string
• classString
• startsWith
• notStartsWith
• endsWith
• notEndsWith
• boolean
• true
• false
• notFalse
• nonEmptyArray
• nonEmptyString
• isInstanceOf
• type
• fileExists
• file
• directory
• readable
• writable

Example

$value = Assert::notNull($this->repository->find(123));

Stringify

::value(mixed $value): string

Easily convert any value to a string representation.

true > 'true'
false > 'false'
null > 'null'
123 > '123'
1.23 > '1.23'
'abc' > 'abc'
'' > 'empty-string',
[] > 'empty-array'
[1, 2, 3] > 'array-list(3)'
['foo' => 'bar'] => 'keyed-array(1)'
StringableObject => 'value (StringableObject)'
stdClass => 'stdClass'
resource => 'resource (stream)'
