FPP

Functional PHP Preprocessor - Immutable data type generator

What it this?

This library can generate immutable data types based on fpp definitions, the syntax is inspired by Haskell.

So what really is it?

Create a file and put this in it:

namespace Model\Foo;

data Person = Person { string $name, ?int $age };

This will generate the following php code:

namespace Model\Foo;
final class Person
{
    private $name;
    private $age;

    public function __construct(string $name, ?int $age)
    {
        $this->name = $name;
        $this->age = $age;
    }

    public function name(): string
    {
        return $this->name;
    }

    public function age(): ?int
    {
        return $this->age;
    }

    public function withName(string $name): Person
    {
        return new self($name, $this->age);
    }

    public function withAge(?int $age): Person
    {
        return new self($this->name, $age);
    }
}

Enums?

No problem

namespace MyEnum;

data Color = Red | Blue | Green | Yellow deriving (Enum);

$blue = Color::blue();
var_dump($blue->equals(Color::blue())); // true
var_dump($blue->equals(Color::red())); // false

function (MyEnum\Color $color): string
{
    return $color->value();
}

Enums with value mappings

namespace MyEnum;

data Color = Red | Blue deriving (Enum) with (Red:'someThing', Blue: 13);

var_dump(Color::red()->value()); // 'someThing' var_dump(Color::blue()->value()); // 13

Derivings

Derivings are kind of PHP's extends keyword, the following rules apply:

• It's possible to derive multiple times
• Some derivings are not compatible to each other (f.e. Command and ToArray cannot be mixed)

There are 14 deriving types for now:

• AggregateChanged
• Command
• DomainEvent
• Enum
• Equals
• FromArray
• FromScalar
• FromString
• Query
• MicroAggregateChanged (not extending from prooph/eventsourcing, f.e. for prooph/micro)
• ToArray
• ToScalar
• ToString
• Uuid

Deriving Equals + ToArray

namespace Model\Foo;

data Person = Person { string $name, ?int $age } deriving (ToArray, Equals);

Now you can do this:

$p = new Model\Foo\Person(['name' => 'sasa', 'age' => 36]);
var_dump($p->toArray()); // ['name' => 'sasa', 'age' => 36]
$p->equals($p) // true

Usage

php bin/fpp.php <source dir or file>

It will try to find your composer autoload and fetch psr-4 and psr-0 prefixes from it. You'll get an exception, if you want to dump a class, where you have no composer autoload definition.
