Introduction
Manipulating array data in most cases can be expressed as a model. Models in Eden is defined loosely and as a utility class to help managing data in a controlled and chainable format. The basic setup of a model is described in Figure 1
.
Figure 1. Setup
$user = array(
'user_name' => 'Chris',
'user_email' => 'cblanquera@openovate.com',
'user_location' => 'Manila, Philippines');
eden('model', $user);
From here we can access properties in our model as a method, property or back as an array. Figure 2
shows the ways to access data in action.
Figure 2. Accessing Model Properties
//set user name
$model->setUserName('Chris');
// returns user email
$model->getUserEmail();
// set any abstract key
$model->setAnyThing('somthing');
// get any abstract key
$model->getAnyThing();
//access as array
echo $model['user_name'];
//set as array
$model['user_email'] = 'my@email.com';
//access as object
echo $model->user_name;
//set as object
$model->user_name = 'my@email.com';
We added several common methods to futher manipulate model data.
Figure 3. Utility Methods
//for each row, copy the value of post_user to the user_id column
$model->copy('post_user', 'user_id');
//returns a raw array (no object)
$model->get();
