xttribute will make dealing with XML a breeze! DOMDocuments can now be cast to classes with PHP 8.1 attributes!
- PHP 8.1
Use composer to install
composer require xttribute/xttributeGiven the following XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<note>
<to>Tove</to>
<from>Jani</from>
<heading>Reminder</heading>
<body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body>
</note>We can translate this easily to the following class with some attributes!
use Xttribute\Xttribute\Castable\Str;
class Note
{
public function __construct(
#[Str('/note/to')]
public readonly string $to,
#[Str('/note/from')]
public readonly string $from,
#[Str('/note/heading')]
public readonly string $heading,
#[Str('/note/body')]
public readonly string $body,
) {
}
}Then we can run it through our DomDocumentCaster and get our hydrated object!
use Xttribute\Xttribute\DOMDocumentCaster;
// $source to be populated, however you're receiving your XML
$xml = new DOMDocument();
$xml->loadXML($source);
$caster = new DOMDocumentCaster();
$caster->cast($doc, Note::class)Other ways of using this package can be found in our examples.
