 DownloadArrayOne
It is a minimalist library that process arrays in PHP.
This library is focused to work with business data(reading/saving files, database records, API, etc.), so it is not similar to Numpy, Pandas, NumPHP or alike because they target difference objectives. It is more closely similar to Microsoft PowerQuery.
What it does? Filter, order, renaming column, grouping, validating, amongst many other operations.
-
[x] it works with PHP arrays. PHP arrays allows hierarchy structures using indexed and/or associative values.
-
[x] It is aimed at speed.
-
[x] It is minimalist, using the minimum of dependencies and only 1 PHP class. Do you hate when a simple library adds a whole framework as difference? Well, not here.
-
[x] It works using fluent/nested notations.
-
[x] Every method is documented using PhpDoc.

Basic examples
// Reducing an array using aggregate functions:
$invoice=[
'id'=>1,
'date'=>new DateTime('now'),
'customer'=>10,
'detail'=>[
['idproduct'=>1,'unitPrice'=>200,'quantity'=>3],
['idproduct'=>2,'unitPrice'=>300,'quantity'=>4],
['idproduct'=>3,'unitPrice'=>300,'quantity'=>5],
]
];
$arr=ArrayOne::set($invoice)
->nav('detail')
->reduce(['unitPrice'=>'sum','quantity'=>'sum'])
->current(); //['unitPrice'=>800,'quanty'=>12]
Getting started
First, you must install the library. You can download this library or use Composer for its installation:
> composer require eftec/arrayone
Once the library is installed and included, you can use as:
use eftec\ArrayOne;
ArrayOne::set($array); // Initial operator: $array is our initial array.
->someoperator1() // Middle operator: here we do one or many operations to transform the array
->someoperator2()
->someoperator3()
->current(); // End operator: and we get the end result that usually is an array but it could be even a literal.
Concepts
$array=['hello' // indexed field
'field2'=>'world', // named field
'fields'=>[ // a field with sub-fields
'alpha'=>1,
'beta'=>2
],
'table'=>[ // a field with a list of values (a table)
['id'=>1,'name'=>'red'],
['id'=>2,'name'=>'orange'],
['id'=>3,'name'=>'blue'],
]
];
-
indexed and named fields works similarly.
-
When a field contains an array, then you can "navigate" inside it using the command nav(). In the case of the field called fields is nav("field")
-
Sometimes, some field contains an array of values that behave like a table (see table field)
initial operator
Initial operator is the first operator of the chain.
set
It sets the array to be transformed, and it starts the pipeline.
It must be the first operator unless you are using the constructor.
ArrayOne::set($array)->all();
// or you can use the constructor.
(new ArrayOne($array))->all();
middle operator
Middle operators are operators that are called between the initial operator set() and the end operator all() or current().
They do the transformation and they could be stacked.
example: ArrayOne::set($array)
->nav('field') // middle operator #1
->group('col1',['col2'=>'sum']) // middle operator #2
->all();
col
Returns a single column as an array of values.
Example: $this->col('c1'); // [['c1'=>1,'c2'=>2],['c1'=>3,'c2'=>4]] => [['c1'=>1],['c1'=>3]];
columnToIndex
it converts a column into an index
Example: $this->indexToField('colold'); // [['colold'=>'a','col1'=>'b','col2'=>'c'] => ['a'=>['col1'=>'b','col2'=>'c']]
-
parameter mixed $oldColumn the old column. This column will be converted into an index
filter
It filters the values. If the condition is false, then the row is deleted. It uses array_filter()
The indexes are not rebuilt.
Example: $array = [['id' => 1, 'name' => 'chile'], ['id' => 2, 'name' => 'argentina'], ['id' => 3, 'name' => 'peru']];
// ['id' => 2, 'name' => 'argentina']
$r = ArrayOne::set($array)->filter(function($id, $row) {return $row['id'] === 2;}, true)->current();
// [1=>['id' => 2, 'name' => 'argentina']]
$r = ArrayOne::set($array)->filter(function($id, $row) {return $row['id'] === 2;}, false)->current();
first
It returns the first element of an array.
return value* $this
flat
It flats the results. If the result is an array with a single row, then it returns the row without the array
Example: $this->flat(); // [['a'=>1,'b'=>2]] => ['a'=>1,'b'=>2]
example
$array=[
['cat'=>'cat1','col_min'=>1,'col_max'=>1,'col_sum'=>1,'col_avg'=>1,'col_first'=>'john1','col_last'=>'doe1'],
['cat'=>'cat2','col_min'=>2,'col_max'=>2,'col_sum'=>2,'col_avg'=>2,'col_first'=>'john2','col_last'=>'doe2'],
['cat'=>'cat3','col_min'=>3,'col_max'=>3,'col_sum'=>3,'col_avg'=>3,'col_first'=>'john3','col_last'=>'doe3'],
['cat'=>'cat1','col_min'=>4,'col_max'=>4,'col_sum'=>4,'col_avg'=>4,'col_first'=>'john4','col_last'=>'doe4'],
['cat'=>'cat2','col_min'=>5,'col_max'=>5,'col_sum'=>5,'col_avg'=>5,'col_first'=>'john5','col_last'=>'doe5']
];
$result=ArrayOne::set($array)
->group('cat',[
'col_min'=>'min',
'col_max'=>'max',
'col_sum'=>'sum',
'col_avg'=>'avg',
'col_count'=>'count',
'col_first'=>'first',
'col_last'=>'last',
])
->all();
/* [
'cat1' =>
['col_min' => 1, 'col_max' => 4, 'col_sum' => 5, 'col_avg' => 2.5, 'col_first' => 'john1', 'col_last' => 'doe4', 'col_count' => 2,],
'cat2' =>
['col_min' => 2, 'col_max' => 5, 'col_sum' => 7, 'col_avg' => 3.5, 'col_first' => 'john2', 'col_last' => 'doe5', 'col_count' => 2,],
'cat3' =>
['col_min' => 3, 'col_max' => 3, 'col_sum' => 3, 'col_avg' => 3, 'col_first' => 'john3', 'col_last' => 'doe3', 'col_count' => 1,],
];
indexToColumn
It converts the index into a field, and renumerates the array
Example: $this->indexToField('colnew'); // ['a'=>['col1'=>'b','col2'=>'c']] => [['colnew'=>'a','col1'=>'b','col2'=>'c']
-
parameter mixed $newColumn the name of the new column
-
return value $this
### join
Joins the current array with another array
If the columns of both arrays have the same name, then the current name is retained.
Example:
$products=[['id'=>1,'name'=>'cocacola','idtype'=>123]];
$types=[['id'=>123,'desc'=>'it is the type #123']];
ArrayOne::set($products)->join($types,'idtype','id')->all()
// [['id'=>1,'prod'=>'cocacola','idtype'=>123,'desc'=>'it is the type #123']] "id" is from product.
-
parameter array|null $arrayToJoin
-
parameter mixed $column1 the column of the current array
-
parameter mixed $column2 the column of the array to join.
-
return value $this
### last
It returns the last element of an array.
-
return value $this
### map
It calls a function for every element of an array
-
parameter callable|null $condition The function to call.
-
return value $this
### mask
It masks the current array using another array.<br>
Masking deletes all field that are not part of our mask<br>
The mask is smart to recognize a table, so it could mask multiples values by only specifying the first row.
Example:
$array=['a'=>1,'b'=>2,'c'=>3,'items'=>[[a1'=>1,'a2'=>2,'a3'=3],[a1'=>1,'a2'=>2,'a3'=3]];
$mask=['a'=>1,'items'=>[[a1'=>1]]; // [[a1'=>1]] masks an entire table
$this->mask($mask); // $array=['a'=>1,'items'=>[[a1'=>1],[a1'=>1]];
-
param array $arrayMask An associative array with the mask. The mask could contain any value.
-
return value ArrayOne
### nav
Navigate inside the arrays.
If you want to select a subcolumn, then you could indicate it separated by dot: "column.subcolumn". You
can separate up to 5 levels.
Example:
$this->nav('col');
$this->nav(); // return to root.
$this->nav('col.subcol.subsubcol'); // [col=>[subcol=>[subsubcol=>[1,2,3]]]] returns [1,2,3]
-
parameter string|int|null $colName the name of the field. If null then it returns to the root.
You can add more leves by separating by "."
-
return value $this
### npos
It returns the n-position of an array.
-
parameter $index
-
return value $this
### reduce
You can reduce (flat) an array using aggregations or a custom function.
Example:
$this->reduce(['col1'=>'sum','col2'=>'avg','col3'=>'min','col4'=>'max']);
$this->reduce(function($row,$index,$prev) { return ['col1'=>$row['col1']+$prev['col1]]; });
-
parameter array|callable $functionAggregation An associative array where the index is the column and the value
is the function of aggregation
A function using the syntax: function ($row,$index,$prev) where $prev
is the accumulator value
-
return value $this
### removecol
It removes a column
Example:
$this->removeCol('col1');
$this->removeCol(['col1','col2']);
-
parameter mixed $colName The name of the column or columns (array)
-
return value $this
### removeDuplicate
### setCol
It adds or modify a column.
Example:
$this->setCol('col1',function($row,$index) { return $row['col2']*$row['col3']; });
-
parameter string|int|null $colName the name of the column. If null, then it uses the entire row
-
parameter callable|null $operation the operation to realize.
-
return value $this
### sort
Sort an array
Example:
$this->sort('payment','desc'); // sort an array using the column paypent descending.
-
parameter mixed $column if column is null, then it sorts the row (instead of a column of the row)
-
parameter string $direction =\['asc','desc'][$i] ascending or descending.
-
return value $this
### validate
Validate the current array using a comparison table
Example:
$this->validate([
'id'=>'int',
'price'=>'int|between;1,20' // the price must be an integer and it must be between 1 and 20 (including them).
'table'=>[['col1'=>'int';'col2'=>'string|notnull,,the value is required|']], // note the double [[ ]] to indicate a table of values
'list'=>[['int']]
]);
Example Using a custom function:
// 1) defining the service class.
class ServiceClass {
/
* @param mixed $value the value to evaluate
* @param mixed $compare the value to compare (optional)
* @param ?string $msg the message to return if fails
* @return bool
*/
public function test($value,$compare=null,&$msg=null): bool
{
return true;
}
}
// 2.1) and setting the service class using the class
ValidateOne
->set($array,ServiceClass:class)
->validate('field'=>'fn:test')
->all();
// 2.2) or you could use an instance
$obj=new ServiceClass();
ValidateOne
->set($array,$obj)
->validate('field'=>'fn:test')
->all();
-
parameter array $comparisonTable The comparison table, is an associative table with the conditions to compare using the next syntax: [index=>"condition|condition2..."].
* The conditions could be express as: \<name of the condition>;\<value>\<custom error message>
The\<value>* could be a simple literal (1,hello, etc.) or a list of values (separated by comma)
The\<custom error message>could contain the next variables:%fieldthe id of the field, %value the current value of the field,%compthe value to compare,%firstthe first value to compare,%secondthe second value to compare, example "%field(%value) is not equals to%comp",%rowid* is the id of the current row (if any)
