Reflection API

Licensed under MIT License.

Reflection api provides tools that allows to:

• read and write object's properties
• build classes on runtime
• retrieves closure's body
• instantiating objects without reflection api

Reading object's properties

use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;

class TestClass
{
    private $test;
    
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->test = 1;
    }
}

$instance = new TestClass();

ReflectionApi::readProperty($instance, 'test');

Write object's properties

use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;

class TestClass
{
    private $test;
    
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->test = 1;
    }
}

$instance = new TestClass();

ReflectionApi::writeProperty($instance, 'test', 2);

Create an instance

use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;

class TestClass
{
    private $test;
    
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->test = 1;
    }
}

$instance = ReflectionApi::createInstance(TestClass::class);

Building and loading class on runtime

use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi;
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi\RuntimeProperty;
use Igni\Utils\ReflectionApi\RuntimeMethod;

$class = ReflectionApi::createClass('TestClass');

$class->addProperty((new RuntimeProperty('test))->makePrivate());

$constructor = new RuntimeMethod('__construct');
$constructor->addBody(
    '$this->test = 1'
);

$getTest = new RuntimeMethod('getTest');
$getTest->setReturnType('string');
$getTest->addBody(
    'return $this->test'
);

$class->addMethod($constructor);
$class->addMethod($getTest);

$class->load();

$instance = $class->createInstance();

$instance instanceof 'TestClass';// true.
$instance->getTest();// 1
