README

Plugin for the XP Compiler which adds compact methods to the PHP language.

Example

Compact methods use the fn keyword, much like PHP 7.4 arrow functions. The RFC suggests this in its Future Scope section.

class Person {
  private $name;

  public fn name(): string => $this->name;
}

Installation

After installing the XP Compiler into your project, also include this plugin.

$ composer require xp-framework/compiler
# ...

$ composer require xp-lang/php-compact-methods
# ...

No further action is required.
