Properties

Enums do not support properties. This is due to the simple fact that enums are forbidden to have any form of state. But sometimes you need to store something.

For example, if you use Enumhancer outside a framework with dependency injection and you want to inject a TransitionHook or a Mapper.

Note: Just to follow the rules of PHP, the properties are stored per enum class or globally for all enums and the methods are therefore static.

Usage

use Henzeb\Enumhancer\Concerns\Properties;

enum YourEnum: string {
    use Properties;

    // ..
}

Examples

YourEnum::property('your_property'); // will return null;
YourEnum::property('your_property', 'your_value');
YourEnum::property('your_property'); // will return 'your_value'
YourEnum::property('your_property', 100);
YourEnum::property('your_property'); // will return 100
YourEnum::property('your_property', null);
YourEnum::property('your_property'); // will return null
YourEnum::property('your_property', fn()=>'true');
YourEnum::property('your_property'); // will return callable
YourEnum::property('your_property', new stdClass());
YourEnum::property('your_property'); // will return stdClass() instance

YourEnum::unset('your_property'); // will remove your_property
YourEnum::unsetAll(); // will clear all properties.

Global properties

You can also set global properties.

Henzeb\Enumhancer\Helpers\EnumProperties::global('property', 'your_value');
Henzeb\Enumhancer\Helpers\EnumProperties::clearGlobal(); // clear all global properties
