PHP Class lithium\util\collection\Filters

In Lithium itself, when creating a method that can be filtered, a method is implemented as a closure and is passed to either Object::_filter() or StaticObject::_filter(). Each object internally maintains its own list of filters, which are applied in these methods and passed to Filters::run(). When implementing a custom filter system outside of Lithium, you can create your own list of filters, and pass it to $options['data'] in the run() method. When creating a filter to apply to a method, you need the name of the method you want to call, along with a **closure**, that defines what you want the filter to do. All filters take the same 3 parameters: $self,$params, and $chain. - $self: If the filter is applied on an object instance, then $self will be that instance. If applied to a static class, then $self will be a string containing the fully-namespaced class name. - $params: Contains an associative array of the parameters that are passed into the method. You can modify or inspect these parameters before allowing the method to continue. - $chain: Finally, $chain contains the list of filters in line to be executed (as an instance of the Filters class). At the bottom of $chain is the method itself. This is why most filters contain a line that looks like this: {{{return $chain->next($self, $params, $chain);}}} This passes control to the next filter in the chain, and finally, to the method itself. This allows you to interact with the return value as well as the parameters. Within the framework, you can call applyFilter() on any object (static or instantiated) and pass the name of the method you would like to filter, along with the filter itself. For example: {{{use \lithium\action\Dispatcher; Dispatcher::applyFilter('run', function($self, $params, $chain) { Custom pre-dispatch logic goes here $response = $chain->next($self, $params, $chain); $response now contains a Response object with the result of the dispatched request, and can be modified as appropriate ... return $response; });}}} The logic in the closure will now be executed on every call to Dispatcher::run(), and $response will always be modified by any custom logic present before being returned from run().

Protected Properties

Property Type Description
$_autoConfig array This is the list of configuration settings that will be automatically applied to the properties of each Filters instance.
$_class string The fully-namespaced class name of the class containing the method being filtered.

Public Methods

Method Description
apply ( string $class, string $method, Closure $filter ) : void Lazily applies a filter to a method of a static class.
hasApplied ( string $class, string $method ) : boolean Checks to see if the given class / method has any filters which have been applied lazily, and not yet attached.
method ( boolean $full = false ) : string Gets the method name associated with this filter chain. This is the method being filtered.
next ( object $self, array $params, array $chain ) : mixed Provides short-hand convenience syntax for filter chaining.
run ( mixed $class, array $params, array $options = [] ) : Returns Collects a set of filters to iterate. Creates a filter chain for the given class/method, executes it, and returns the value.

Method Details

apply() public static method

This method is useful if you want to apply a filter inside a global bootstrap file to a static class which may or may not be loaded during every request, or which may be loaded lazily elsewhere in your application. If the class is already loaded, the filter will be applied immediately. However, if the class has not been loaded, the filter will be stored and applied to the class the first time the method specified in $method is called. This works for any class which extends StaticObject.
See also: lithium\core\StaticObject
public static apply ( string $class, string $method, Closure $filter ) : void
$class string The fully namespaced name of a **static** class to which the filter will be applied. The class name specified in `$class` **must** extend `StaticObject`, or else statically implement the `applyFilter()` method.
$method string The method to which the filter will be applied.
$filter Closure The filter to apply to the class method.
return void

hasApplied() public static method

If a filter has been lazily applied (using Filters::apply()) to a class which is/was not yet loaded, checks to see if the filter is still being held, or has been applied. The filter will not be applied until the method being filtered has been called.
See also: lithium\util\collection\Filters::apply()
public static hasApplied ( string $class, string $method ) : boolean
$class string Fully-namespaced class name.
$method string Method name.
return boolean

method() public method

Gets the method name associated with this filter chain. This is the method being filtered.
public method ( boolean $full = false ) : string
$full boolean Whether to return the method name including the class name or not.
return string

next() public method

Provides short-hand convenience syntax for filter chaining.
See also: lithium\core\Object::applyFilter()
See also: lithium\core\Object::_filter()
public next ( object $self, array $params, array $chain ) : mixed
$self object The object instance that owns the filtered method.
$params array An associative array containing the parameters passed to the filtered method.
$chain array The Filters object instance containing this chain of filters.
return mixed Returns the return value of the next filter in the chain.

run() public static method

Collects a set of filters to iterate. Creates a filter chain for the given class/method, executes it, and returns the value.
public static run ( mixed $class, array $params, array $options = [] ) : Returns
$class mixed The class for which this filter chain is being created. If this is the result of a static method call, `$class` should be a string. Otherwise, it should be the instance of the object making the call.
$params array An associative array of the given method's parameters.
$options array The configuration options with which to create the filter chain. Mainly, these options allow the `Filters` object to be queried for details such as which class / method initiated it. Available keys: - `'class'`: The name of the class that initiated the filter chain. - `'method'`: The name of the method that initiated the filter chain. - `'data'` _array_: An array of callable objects (usually closures) to be iterated through. By default, execution will be nested such that the first item will be executed first, and will be the last to return.
return Returns the value returned by the first closure in `$options['data`]`.
