HackPack: This package allows calling classes in function style, through the use of a PHP hack.

Installation

To install via composer (http://getcomposer.org/), place the following in your composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        "barbosa/hackpack": "dev-master"
    }
}

or download package from github.com:

http://github.com/barbosa89/hackpack

Configuration

Consider the following folder structure:

/project
    /src
        MainClass.php
        Router.php
        TextProcessing.php
        Request.php
        services.php
    /test

The services.php file, returns an array with an alias and the corresponding namespace and the following sintax:

<?php 

/**
 * file: services.php
 */

return [

    'router' => Some\Namespace\Router::class,
    'text' => Some\Namespace\TextProcessing::class,
    'request' => Some\Namespace\Request::class  

];

In the MainClass.php file, invoke to ServiceLoader::load() method:

<?php

namespace Some\Namespace;

use Barbosa\HackPack\ServiceLoader;

class MainClass
{
    public function __construct
    {
        $services = require 'services.php';
        ServiceLoader::load($services);
    }
}

The ServiceLoader::load() method loads the objects in function style, wich are available in the application.

Now you can invoke services in functions style from anywhere in the application. Example:

<?php

namespace Some\Namespace;

use Barbosa\HackPack\ServiceLoader;

class MainClass
{
    public function __construct
    {
        $aliases = require 'services.php';
        ServiceLoader::load($services);
    }

    public function resolveUri($uri)
    {
        return request()->parseUri($uri);
    }
}

The object name in function style, depends on the name assigned in the array. This is an alternative to Packager Library.

Examples

# Pass parameters to the constructor
request($uri)->parseUri();

# Pass parameters to methods
request()->parseUri($uri);

# Chaining of methods
request()->parseUri($uri)->getResult();
