A class that handles the detection and conversion of certain resource formats / content types into other formats. The current formats are supported: XML, JSON, Array, Object, Serialized
- PHP 5.3+ - v2.x
- PHP 5.2+ - v1.x
- SimpleXML - http://php.net/manual/book.simplexml.php
The class is pretty straight forward. If you want to convert something to another format, use the "to" methods.
$object = TypeConverter::toObject($resource);
$array = TypeConverter::toArray($resource);
$json = TypeConverter::toJson($resource);
$xml = TypeConverter::toXml($resource);
$ser = TypeConverter::toSerialize($resource);
If you want to detect what resource type it is, use the "is" methods. If you use the "to" methods above, it does automatic "is" detection.
TypeConverter::isObject($resource);
TypeConverter::isArray($resource);
TypeConverter::isJson($resource);
TypeConverter::isXml($resource);
TypeConverter::isSerialized($resource);
If you want a string representation of what a resource is, use the default is() method.
$resource = array();
TypeConverter::is($resource); // array
Finally, you can convert an XML document into an array (must have SimpleXML).
$array = TypeConverter::xmlToArray($xml, TypeConverter::XML_MERGE);
When using xmlToArray(), you can define the format in which the node attributes and values are presented. The following constants are available.
XML_NONE - Disregard XML attributes and only return the value.
XML_MERGE - Merge attributes and the value into a single dimension; the values key will be "value".
XML_GROUP - Group the attributes into a key of "attributes" and the value into a key of "value".
XML_OVERWRITE - Attributes will only be returned.
Be sure to set the content type when supporting UTF-8.
