README

PhpConstant is a simple class containing useful functions which you can extend to your constant classes.

For example if you want to have a StatusConst class, which contains all possible statuses as constants, you can extend PhpConstant to use its functions for your StatusConst class.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require kevinpurwito/php-constant

Usage

use KevinPurwito\PhpConstant\PhpConstant;

// Class Extends PhpConstant to use its functions
class StatusConst extends PhpConstant
{
    const PENDING = 'pending';
    const IN_PROCESS = 'in_process';
    const COMPLETED = 'completed';
}

/*

*/

// returns an array like this: ['pending', 'in_process', 'completed']
StatusConst::all();

// returns a key-value array like this: ['pending' => 'Pending', 'in_process' => 'In Process', 'completed' => 'Completed']
StatusConst::options();

// returns a string like this: 'pending,in_process,completed'
StatusConst::asString();

// You can use any char you want as the glue for asString() function
// returns a string like this: 'pending|in_process|completed'
StatusConst::asString('|');
