SimpUtils

SimpUtils is a micro-framework that provides really simple and lightweight tools for development and prototyping. Additionally there are tools for comfortable and efficient optimization and debugging.

The framework does not have much of composer dependencies (on purpose), to make sure that it does not bloat your vendor folder.

The main purpose of the framework is to improve development experience, and it does not oppose any of the popular framework giants like "Yii2/3", "Laravel" or "Zend". The SimpUtils can be easily used in combination of any framework. For that matter I develop integration package of "SimpUtils" to "Yii2" framework: https://github.com/PandaHugMonster/yii2-simputils

The framework extends PHP language with some useful perks. Provides similar to native classes, but improves their capabilities. Normalizes naming and architecture.

All the aspects of the framework were designed to improve code development and readability. All the components and features are designed to be intuitive and transparent for common use cases, but really flexible in case of need.

P.S. The framework I develop for my own projects, but I'm really happy to share it with anyone who is interested in it. Feel free to participate! Suggestions, bug-reports. I will be really happy hearing from you.

Changelog

1.1.0

Implemented FS::require(), FS::include() and FS::data()
Implemented PHP::listOfExecPhpFileExtensions(), PHP::listOfExecPhpMimeTypes()
Now array/box argument for File constructor is allowed (like for FS::locate())
Added support of FS::locate() alike array/box of path components for fl(), FS::file() and File. So now fl(['part1', 'part2', 'file.txt']) will make a file object with path: "{working-dir}/part1/part2/file.txt"
In BasicInitConfig introduced component-aware $allowed_data_dirs for specifying allowed data-dirs
Introduced new exceptions: DataDirectoryIsNotAllowed, IPParsingException
Implemented the shortcut for the "InitConfig". Now instead of $config = PHP::getInitConfig() you can use a shortcut $config = ic()
Fixed some of the logic related to "l10n" and "default_tz" more you can find here: Nuances of l10n and default_tz
Implemented list of days of the week: \spaf\simputils\DT::getListOfDaysOfWeek()
Implemented list of months: \spaf\simputils\DT::getListOfMonths()
Incorporated all the previous minor-version patches
- To set the timezone for "DateTime" object now can be done by "strings" instead of creation of "DateTimeZone" object every single time
- Other minimal changes
Implemented trait \spaf\simputils\traits\ComparablesTrait which enables to implement common set of comparing functionality (equalsTo, greaterThan, lessThan, greaterThanEqual, lessThanEqual) and their shortcuts (e, gt, lt, gte, lte). Currently used in Version and IPv4 models
Implemented \spaf\simputils\models\IPv4 and \spaf\simputils\models\IPv4Range models with minimal but nice functionality
Implemented \spaf\simputils\models\UrlObject model and \spaf\simputils\models\urls\processors\HttpProtocolProcessor
- The most of the stuff should work out of the box except lack of "to punycode" conversion. Cyrillic and other non-latin domains are not converted to punycode.
Implemented \spaf\simputils\System::localIp() that gets the local IP
Implemented shortcuts url() for \spaf\simputils\models\UrlObject model and ip() for \spaf\simputils\models\IPv4
Added \spaf\simputils\components\normalizers\IPNormalizer property normalizer
Implementation of \spaf\simputils\PHP::bro() method (\spaf\simputils\models\BoxRO) which is basically "immutable Box"
Implemented shortcuts for getting POST and GET data as bros (BoxRO). Please keep in mind that they are immutable due to best-practices:
- \spaf\simputils\PHP::POST()
- \spaf\simputils\PHP::GET()
Implemented \spaf\simputils\PHP::objToNaiveString() method to generate simple/naive object representation
Implemented some relevant tests
Important: Functionality of the Box is slightly extended. Now you can re-define static \spaf\simputils\models\Box::$default_separator variable value to string that should be used during \spaf\simputils\models\Box::join() and \spaf\simputils\models\Box::implode() as a separator by default (initially default is ", " as it was before). Additionally you can specify \spaf\simputils\models\Box::$separator on per object basis that will be used in the object in case of "join" or "implode" without the first argument. That functionality allows to create "path-ready" Box-arrays, that can by default be automatically converted into a "unix" path. \spaf\simputils\models\Box::$joined_to_str per object variable allows to define that this Box-object needs to be converted in __toString() method through \spaf\simputils\models\Box::join() method, which is really useful for "path-ready" Box-arrays. See example here: Path-alike Box-array
For convenience create method-shortcut to set Box as "Path-alike": \spaf\simputils\models\Box::pathAlike()
Added missing data-blocks for different locales

Documentation

Important note about the documentation: Due to urgent need of the stable release, I had to strip out all the documentation (it was really outdated because of my architecture revisions). So please, wait just a bit, with patches after the stable release I will provide more documentation. The very first stable release must be polished in matter of architecture, so documentation will come after that in the very nearest time. My apologies.

Some:

Glossary
Structure
Important notes - this can help with troubleshooting

Installation

Minimal PHP version: 8.0

Current framework version: 1.1.0

composer require spaf/simputils "^1"

Keep in mind that the library development suppose to follow the semantic versioning, so the functionality within the same major version - should be backward-compatible.

More about semantic versioning: Semantic Versioning Explanation.

Quick highlights and examples

Just a few tini-tiny examples of very condensed functionality :)

Properties

use spaf\simputils\generic\SimpleObject;
use spaf\simputils\PHP;
// Important to use exactly this DateTime class that is provided by the library
use spaf\simputils\models\DateTime;

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

/**

 */
class MyObjectOne extends SimpleObject {

	#[Property]
	protected ?int $_field_int = 22;

	#[Property(valid: 'upper')]
	protected ?string $_field_str = null;

	#[Property]
	protected ?DateTime $_field_dt = null;
}

// Always should be ran first in the runtime code
PHP::init();

////////////////////////

$m = new MyObjectOne;

pr($m); // Print out the whole content of the object

$m->field_int = 55.542;
$m->field_str = 'special string that is being normalized transparently';
$m->field_dt = '2000-11-20 01:23:45';

pd($m); // The same as pr(), but it dies after that

The output will be:

MyObjectOne Object
(
    [field_dt] => 
    [field_int] => 22
    [field_str] => 
)

MyObjectOne Object
(
    [field_dt] => spaf\simputils\models\DateTime Object
        (
            [_simp_utils_property_batch_storage] => Array
                (
                )

            [_orig_value:protected] => 
            [date] => 2000-11-20 01:23:45.000000
            [timezone_type] => 3
            [timezone] => Europe/Berlin
        )

    [field_int] => 55
    [field_str] => SPECIAL STRING THAT IS BEING NORMALIZED TRANSPARENTLY
)

Important: Ignore some additional fields like "_orig_value" and "_simp_utils_property_batch_storage" in DateTime object, it's due to really nasty bug of the PHP engine, that seems to be really ignored by the PHP engine developers.

Cool way to hide some fields from the debug output with special attribute DebugHide:

use spaf\simputils\attributes\DebugHide;
use spaf\simputils\attributes\Property;
use spaf\simputils\generic\SimpleObject;
use spaf\simputils\PHP;
// Important to use exactly this DateTime class that is provided by the library
use spaf\simputils\models\DateTime;

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';


/**
 * @property ?int $field_int
 * @property ?string $field_str
 * @property ?DateTime $field_dt
 * @property ?string $password
 */
class MyObjectOne extends SimpleObject {

	#[Property]
	protected ?int $_field_int = 22;

	#[Property(valid: 'upper')]
	protected ?string $_field_str = null;

	#[DebugHide]
	#[Property]
	protected ?DateTime $_field_dt = null;

	#[DebugHide(false)]
	#[Property(valid: 'lower')]
	protected ?string $_password = null;
}

// Always should be ran first in the runtime code
PHP::init();

////////////////////////

$m = new MyObjectOne;

pr($m); // Print out the whole content of the object

$m->field_int = 55.542;
$m->field_str = 'special string that is being normalized transparently';
$m->field_dt = '2000-11-20 01:23:45';
$m->password = 'MyVeRRy Secrete PaSWorT!@#';

pr($m);
pd("My password really is: {$m->password}");

And the output will be:

MyObjectOne Object
(
    [field_int] => 22
    [field_str] => 
    [password] => ****
)

MyObjectOne Object
(
    [field_int] => 55
    [field_str] => SPECIAL STRING THAT IS BEING NORMALIZED TRANSPARENTLY
    [password] => ****
)

My password really is: myverry secrete paswort!@#

Date Times

Simple quick iterations over the date period

use spaf\simputils\PHP;
use spaf\simputils\models\DateTime;
use function spaf\simputils\basic\now;
use function spaf\simputils\basic\pr;
use function spaf\simputils\basic\ts;

// Setting default user output format to Austrian
PHP::init([
	'l10n' => 'AT'
]);

foreach (DT::walk('2000-05-05', '2000-05-09', '12 hours') as $dt) {
	pr("$dt");
}

// Output would be:
//  05.05.2000 00:00
//  05.05.2000 12:00
//  06.05.2000 00:00
//  06.05.2000 12:00
//  07.05.2000 00:00
//  07.05.2000 12:00
//  08.05.2000 00:00
//  08.05.2000 12:00

// Changing locale settings for the user output to US format
$conf->l10n = 'US';

// Do the same iterations again, and output would be in US format
foreach (DT::walk('2000-05-05', '2000-05-09', '12 hours') as $dt) {
	pr("$dt");
}

// Output would be:
//  05/05/2000 12:00 AM
//  05/05/2000 12:00 PM
//  05/06/2000 12:00 AM
//  05/06/2000 12:00 PM
//  05/07/2000 12:00 AM
//  05/07/2000 12:00 PM
//  05/08/2000 12:00 AM
//  05/08/2000 12:00 PM


// The same can be achieved using directly DateTime without DT helper

$conf->l10n = 'RU';

// Both bellow are equivalents. Shortcut is a better choice
$obj1 = new DateTime('2001-05-17 15:00', 'UTC');
$obj2 = ts('2001-06-01 16:00');

foreach ($obj1->walk($obj2, '1 day') as $dt) {
	pr("$dt");
}

// Output would be something like:
//  17.05.2001 15:00
//  18.05.2001 15:00
//  19.05.2001 15:00
//  20.05.2001 15:00
//  21.05.2001 15:00
//  22.05.2001 15:00
//  23.05.2001 15:00
//  24.05.2001 15:00
//  25.05.2001 15:00
//  26.05.2001 15:00
//  27.05.2001 15:00
//  28.05.2001 15:00
//  29.05.2001 15:00
//  30.05.2001 15:00
//  31.05.2001 15:00
//  01.06.2001 15:00

Using prisms Date and Time:

// Setting default user output format to Austrian
use function spaf\simputils\basic\ts;

PHP::init([
	'l10n' => 'AT'
]);

$dt = ts('2100-12-12 13:33:56.333');

echo "Date: {$dt->date}\n";
echo "Time: {$dt->time}\n";

// Output would be:
//  Date: 12.12.2100
//  Time: 13:33

// Chained object modification
echo "{$dt->date->add('22 days')->add('36 hours 7 minutes 1000 seconds 222033 microseconds 111 milliseconds')}\n";

// Output would be:
//  05.01.2101


// What is interesting, is that "date" prism just sub-supplying those "add()" methods to the
// target $dt object, so if we check now the complete condition of $dt it would contain all
// those modifications we did in chain above
echo "{$dt->format(DT::FMT_DATETIME_FULL)}";
// Would output:
//  2101-01-05 01:57:36.666033


// And Time prism would work the same way, but outputting only time part
echo "{$dt->time}\n";
// Output would be:
//  01:57

Both prisms of Date and Time work for any of the DateTime simputils objects.

All this math is done natively in PHP, so it's functionality native to PHP. The overall usage was partially improved, so it could be chained and comfortably output.

All the object modification can be achieved through modify() method as well (add() and sub() works in a very similar way). Here you can read more about that: https://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.modify.php

Examples of getting difference between 2 dates/times

use function spaf\simputils\basic\ts;

$dt = ts('2020-01-09');

echo "{$dt->diff('2020-09-24')}\n";
// Output would be:
//  + 8 months 15 days


// You can use any date-time references
$obj2 = ts('2020-05-19'); 
echo "{$dt->diff($obj2)}\n";
// Output would be:
//  + 4 months 10 days

// Just another interesting chained difference calculation
echo "{$dt->add('10 years')->add('15 days 49 hours 666 microseconds')->diff('2022-01-29')}\n";
// Output would be:
//  - 7 years 11 months 28 days 1 hour 666 microseconds

What if you want to get difference for all those modifications? In general you could use the following approach:

use function spaf\simputils\basic\ts;

$dt = ts('2020-01-09');
$dt_backup = clone $dt;
$dt->add('10 years')->add('15 days 49 hours 666 microseconds')->sub('23 months');
echo "{$dt->diff($dt_backup)}\n";

// Output would be:
//  - 8 years 1 month 17 days 1 hour 666 microseconds

But example above is a bit chunky, it would be slightly more elegant to do the following:

use function spaf\simputils\basic\ts;

$dt = ts('2020-01-09');
$dt->add('10 years')->add('15 days 49 hours 666 microseconds')->sub('23 months');
echo "{$dt->diff()}\n";
// Output would be:
//  - 8 years 1 month 17 days 1 hour 666 microseconds

// This way the diff will use for the first argument the initial value that was saved before first
// "modification" methods like "add()" or "sub()" or "modify()" was applied.

// Reminding, that any of the "modification" methods would cause modification of the target
// DateTime object

Important: All the changes are accumulative, because they call $this->snapshotOrigValue(false) with false first argument. If you call that method without argument or with true - it will override the condition with the current one.

Example of DatePeriod

use spaf\simputils\PHP;
use function spaf\simputils\basic\pr;
use function spaf\simputils\basic\ts;


$conf = PHP::init([
	'l10n' => 'AT'
]);

$dp = ts('2020-01-01')->walk('2020-05-05', '1 day');

pr("$dp");

// Output would be:
//  01.01.2020 00:00 - 05.05.2020 00:00

Example of DateInterval

use spaf\simputils\PHP;
use spaf\simputils\models\DateInterval;

$conf = PHP::init([
	'l10n' => 'AT'
]);

$di = DateInterval::createFromDateString('2 days');

pr("$di");
// Output would be:
//  + 2 days

Suggested to always use SimpUtils versions of DateTime related classes.

Advanced PHP Info Object

Everything is really simple with it. It's an array-like (box-like) object that contains almost complete PHP Info data. That you can access and walk through any comfortable for you way. It also compatible with the common IDE autocomplete (only top level fields).

You can access top-level fields (those that directly on the object):

In a property/field-like style:

use spaf\simputils\PHP;
$phpi = PHP::info();
echo "{$phpi->cpu_architecture}";

In an array-like style (box functionality is also available):

use spaf\simputils\PHP;
$phpi = PHP::info();
echo "{$phpi['cpu_architecture']}";

Iterate over the object:

use spaf\simputils\PHP;
$i = 0;
foreach (PHP::info() as $k => $v) {
    echo "{$k} ====> {$v}\n";
    if ($i++ > 4) {
        // Just a small limiter
        break;
    }
}

IPv4 model

Simple example:

$ic = PHP::init([
	'l10n' => 'AT',
]);

/**
 * @property ?string $name
 * @property ?IPv4 $my_ip
 */
class Totoro extends SimpleObject {

	#[Property]
	protected ?string $_name = null;

	#[Property]
	protected ?IPv4 $_my_ip = null;

}

$t = new Totoro;

$t->name = 'Totoro';
$t->my_ip = '127.0.0.1/16';
$t->my_ip->output_with_mask = false;

pr("I am {$t->name} and my address is {$t->my_ip} (and ip-mask is {$t->my_ip->mask})");

The output would be:

I am Totoro and my address is 127.0.0.1 (and ip-mask is 255.255.0.0)

Path-alike Box-array

This is a new feature for Box model/

$b = new Box(['TEST', 'PATH', 'alike', 'box']);

pr("{$b}"); // In this case JSON

$b->joined_to_str = true;

pr("{$b}");

$b->separator = '/';

pr("{$b}");

$b->separator = ' ## ';

pr("{$b}");

The output would be:


["TEST","PATH","alike","box"]
TEST, PATH, alike, box
TEST/PATH/alike/box
TEST ## PATH ## alike ## box

Additional benefits

All the versions are wrapped into Version class (out of the box version comparison, etc.)
The object is created once, and can be accessed through PHP::info() (manually possible to have multiple)
The object is being derivative from Box, that means that it has all the benefits ( all the underlying arrays are Boxed as well, so the whole content of the php info is available through Box functionality)
Contains lots of information, and probably will be extended in the future with more relevant information.

Reasoning to use Advanced PHP Info Object

The native phpinfo() returns just a static text representation, which is incredibly uncomfortable to use. Info about native one you can find here: https://www.php.net/manual/ru/function.phpinfo.php

Really important to note - all above is really minimal description, basically a tip of the iceberg! There are lots of useful functionality description will be added in upcoming weeks.
