Collection
Collection is a library geared towards delivering a fast and intuitive interface over a group of related elements.
Defining a Collection
Collections can be constructed in multiple ways by passing:
- an integer to the constructor indicating its capacity
- an array or SplFixedArray containing the elements of the collection
Defining an Empty Collection
Empty collections are created by passing an integer to the Collection constructor indicating its
capacity. All indexes of the collection are initalized to null
and the size of the collection
is reported as 0
.
$imEmpty = new Collection(10); count($imEmpty); // 0
Defining a Collection Derived From An array
or SplFixedArray
Collections can be defined using a populated array (or SplFixedArray) simply by passing the array to Collection constructor. The size of the Collection is determined by finding the last non-null index of the array.
$daysOfTheWeek = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday']; $fromArray = new Collection($daysOfTheWeek); count($fromArray); // 7
$occupations = new \SplFixedArray(10); $occupations[0] = 'Botanist'; $occupations = new Collection($occupations); count($occupations); // 1
Using Collection
map($func)
Use map
to create a new instance of Collection which contains a projection of each element of the
mapped collection. The projection is created by applying the function contained in $func
to each
element of the original collection.
Parameters
- `$func`
- The function which is applied to each element of the collection. `$func` can be any [callable](callable) function.
Example
// using a function name $words = new Collection(['Lorem', 'ipsum', 'dolor', 'sit' 'amet']); $shouty = $words->map('strtoupper'); // ['LOREM', 'IPSUM', 'DOLOR', 'SIT' 'AMET']; // using a callable array $classesToMock = new Collection(['SomeClass', 'SomeOtherClass', 'YetAnotherClass']); $mocks = $classesToMack->map(['Mockery', 'mock']); //[object(Mockery\Mock), object(Mockery\Mock), object(Mockery\Mock)] // using an anonymous function $stringyDates = new Collection(['2007-06-08', '2009-05-11', '2014-02-19']); $dates = $stringyDates->map(function ($date) { return DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', $date); }); // [object(DateTime), object(DateTime), object(DateTime)]
each($func)
Apply $func
to each element of the collection. each
returns the original collection so you can
chain other methods off of it.
Parameters
- `$func`
- The function which is applied to each element of the collection. `$func` can be any [callable](callable) function.
Example
$queueEmail = function ($address) use ($message, $emailQueue) { $emailQueue->publish(['to' => $address, 'message' => $message]); }; $adminEmails->each($queueEmail);
reduce($func, $intial)
Generate a single aggregate value derived from applying $func
to each element of the collection.
Parameters
- `$func`
- The reducer function, this function accepts two parameters, `$carry` and `$elem` (in that order) where `$carry` is the current value of the reduction and `$elem` is the current element in the collection being reduced. `$func` can be any [callable](callable) function.
- `$initial`
- The initial value to be used in the reduction
Example
$workSchedule = new Collection([ ['date' => '2015/04/20', 'start' => '08:00', 'end' => '12:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/21', 'start' => '12:00', 'end' => '17:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/23', 'start' => '08:00', 'end' => '17:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/24', 'start' => '10:00', 'end' => '15:00'] ]); $totalHours = $workSchedule->reduce(function($total, $schedule) { $start = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y/m/d H:i', $schedule['date'] . ' ' . $schedule['start']); $end = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y/m/d H:i', $schedule['date'] . ' ' . $schedule['end']); $hours = $end->diff($start)->h; return $total + $hours; }); // 25
filter($func = null)
Return a new Collection containing the elements for which $func
returns true
. If $func
is
not passed to filter
then only truthy values contained in the original collection will be
present in the result.
Parameters
- `$func`
- The filter function for which each element of the collection is passed through. `$func` returns `true` if the element should be kept and `false` if not.
Example
$workSchedule = new Collection([ ['date' => '2015/04/20', 'start' => '08:00', 'end' => '12:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/21', 'start' => '12:00', 'end' => '17:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/23', 'start' => '08:00', 'end' => '17:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/24', 'start' => '10:00', 'end' => '15:00'] ]); $packALunch = $workSchedule->filter(function($schedule) { $start = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y/m/d H:i', $schedule['date'] . ' ' . $schedule['start']); $end = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y/m/d H:i', $schedule['date'] . ' ' . $schedule['end']); $hours = $end->diff($start)->h; return $hours > 4; }); // object(Collection)( ['date' => '2015/04/21', 'start' => '12:00', 'end' => '17:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/23', 'start' => '08:00', 'end' => '17:00'], ['date' => '2015/04/24', 'start' => '10:00', 'end' => '15:00'] )
slice($offset, $length = null)
flatten($flattenWith = null)
Transform a multi-dimensional collection into a one dimensional collection. The responsibilty of
$flattenWith
is to accept an element of the collection and return an arrray (or an object that
implements both Countable and ArrayAccess) of the elements contained
within that element. If a flattenWith
function is not provided to flatten
then the method
will attempt to flatten the collection using a generic flattenWith
function, this is useful
for flattening a 2 dimensional collection.
Parameters
- `$func`
- This function is used to flatten individual elements into single dimensional array.
Example
contains($value)
first($matching = null)
last($matching = null)
reverse()
groupBy($getGroupKey)
prepend($elem)
append($elem)
push($elem)
pop()
toArray()
count()
