An interface that indicates the object is serializable.

Install

Using Composer:

$ composer require qlimix/serializable

usage

<?php

use Qlimix\Serializable\SerializableInterface;

final class FooBar implements SerializableInterface
{
    /** @var string */
    private $foo;
    
    /** @var int */
    private $bar;
    
    public function __construct(string $foo, int $bar)
    {
        $this->foo = $foo;
        $this->bar = $bar;
    }
    
    public function getName(): string
    {
        return 'foo.bar';
    }
    
    public function serialize(): array
    {
        return [
            'foo' => $this->foo,
            'bar' => $this->bar,
        ];
    }

    public static function deserialize(array $data): SerializableInterface
    {
        return new self($data['foo'], $data['bar']);
    }
}

If whatever you are serializing doesn't cross the boundaries of your application you could use the GetClassNameTrait to refer to the object class name.
