Usage

Accessing Application Metadata

The Meta class provides access to application metadata, including directory paths:

use BEAR\AppMeta\Meta;

// Initialize with your application's namespace
$appMeta = new Meta('MyVendor\HelloWorld');

// Access metadata properties
echo $appMeta->name;    // MyVendor\HelloWorld
echo $appMeta->appDir;  // /path/to/MyVendor/HelloWorld/src
echo $appMeta->logDir;  // /path/to/MyVendor/HelloWorld/var/log
echo $appMeta->tmpDir;  // /path/to/MyVendor/HelloWorld/var/tmp

Fetching Resource Metadata

Use the getGenerator() method to retrieve metadata for resources. This method returns a generator, making it memory-efficient for large applications.

// Fetch metadata for all resources
foreach ($appMeta->getGenerator('*') as $resourceMeta) {
    var_dump($resourceMeta->uriPath); // app://self/one
    var_dump($resourceMeta->class);   // FakeVendor\HelloWorld\Resource\App\One
    var_dump($resourceMeta->file);    // /path/to/src/Resource/App/One.php
}

// Fetch metadata for resources in the 'app' namespace
foreach ($appMeta->getGenerator('app') as $resourceMeta) {
    var_dump($resourceMeta->uriPath); // /one
    var_dump($resourceMeta->class);   // FakeVendor\HelloWorld\Resource\App\One
    var_dump($resourceMeta->file);    // /path/to/src/Resource/App/One.php
}
