README

InterMix is a modern, lightweight PHP toolkit for developers who value class-oriented design, clean architecture, and fast execution. It combines dependency injection, serialization, macro-style extensibility, and helper utilities with minimal config and maximum control.

Global helper functions are optional in v2: core APIs are namespaced and helper loading is opt-in.

Key Features

• Dependency Injection (DI) — PSR-11 compliant container with:
  • attribute-based injection
  • scoped lifetimes
  • lazy loading
  • environment-specific overrides
  • debug tracing & definition-cache integration via assignable PSR-6 pool
• Serializer — Closure-aware value serialization and resource handlers
• Fence — Enforce singleton-style class safety
• Remix — Fluent traits, proxies, and global helper functions
• MacroMix — Dynamically extend objects or classes with macros
• Global Utilities — Like pipe(), retry(), measure() and more

Installation

composer require infocyph/intermix

Optional global helpers:

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/infocyph/intermix/src/functions.php';

Supported PHP versions:

Quick Examples

Dependency Injection

use function Infocyph\InterMix\container;

$c = container();
$c->definitions()->bind('now', fn () => new DateTimeImmutable());

echo $c->get('now')->format('c');

Enable autowiring with attributes:

$c->options()->setOptions(
    injection: true,
    methodAttributes: true,
    propertyAttributes: true
);

Tag-based resolution:

$c->definitions()->bind('a', A::class, tags: ['service']);
$c->definitions()->bind('b', B::class, tags: ['service']);

foreach ($c->findByTag('service') as $svc) {
    $svc()->handle();
}

Dynamic Macros

MacroTest::mix(new class {
    public function hello($name) {
        return "Hey, $name!";
    }
});

echo (new MacroTest)->hello('Ali'); // Hey, Ali!

Definition Cache (Injectable)

use Psr\Cache\CacheItemPoolInterface;

$pool = /* any PSR-6 pool, e.g. from infocyph/cachelayer */;
$c->definitions()->enableDefinitionCache($pool, cacheRuntimeObjects: false);

Compiled Resolvers

$path = __DIR__ . '/var/intermix.compiled.php';

// build-time: generate compiled resolver map
$c->compileTo($path);

// runtime: activate compiled resolver map explicitly
$c->useCompiled($path);

// optional one-step build + activate
$c->compileTo($path, load: true);

Signed Serialization

$signed = \Infocyph\InterMix\Serializer\ValueSerializer::signed($_ENV['APP_KEY']);
$token = $signed->encode(['user_id' => 1]);
$payload = $signed->decode($token);

Testing

composer install
composer ic:tests
