Defining Classes

The definitions are used to indicate internally in the extensions which classes are going to be generated and how they will be.

Classes

The classes are defined with the class Mandango\Mondator\Definition\Definition:

use Mandango\Mondator\Definition\Definition;

// constructor: class
$definition = new Definition($class);

// class
$definition->setClass('Model\Article');
$class = $definition->getClass();

// namespace (only return) (null if it doesn't have)
$namespace = $definition->getNamespace();

// classname (only return)
$className = $definition->getClassName();

// parent class (full class)
$definition->setParentClass('\Model\Base\Article');
$parentClass $definition->getParentClass();

// interfaces
$definition->addInterface('\ArrayAccess');
$interfaces = $definition->getInterfaces();

// abstract
$definition->setIsAbstract(true);
$isAbstract = $definition->getIsAbstract();

// DocComment
$definition->setDocComment(<<<EOF
/**
 * Article Document.
 */
EOF
);
$docComment = $definition->getDocComment();

Methods

The methods use the class MandangoMondatorDefinitionMethod:

use Mandango\Mondator\Definition\Method;

// constructor: visibility, name, arguments, code
$method = new Method('public', 'myMethod', '$var1, $var2', <<<EOF
        return \$var1 + \$var2;
EOF
);

// visibility
$method->setVisibility('protected');
$visibility = $method->getVisibility();

// name
$method->setName('mySumMethod');
$name = $method->getName();

// arguments
$method->setArguments('$sum1, $sum2');
$arguments = $method->getArguments();

// code
$method->setCode(<<<EOF
        return \$sum1 + \$sum2;
EOF
);
$code = $method->getCode();

// static
$method->setIsStatic(true);
$isStatic = $method->getIsStatic();

// abstract
$method->setIsAbstract(true);
$isAbstract = $method->getIsAbstract();

// docComment
$method->setDocComment(<<<EOF
    /**
     * Sum two numbers.
     *
     * @param mixed $sum1 The Sum1.
     * @param mixed $sum2 The Sum2.
     *
     * @return mixed The result.
     */
EOF
);
$docComment = $method->getDocComment();

The methods are assigned to the definitions:

// assign one
$definition->addMethod($method);

// replace (deletes all that existed previously)
$definition->setMethods(array($method1, $method2));

// return all
$methods = $definition->getMethods();

Properties

The properties use the class MandangoMondatorDefinitionProperty:

use Mandango\Mondator\Definition\Property;

// constructor: visibility, name, value
$property = new Property('public', 'myProperty', 'value');

// visibility
$property->setVisibility('protected');
$visibility = $property->getVisibility();

// name
$property->setName('myCustomProperty');
$name = $property->getName();

// value
$property->setValue('someValue');
$value = $property->getValue();

// static
$property->setIsStatic(true);
$isStatic = $property->getIsStatic();

// docComment
$property->setDocComment(<<<EOF
    /**
     * MyCustomProperty.
     */
EOF
);
$docComment = $property->getDocComment();

The properties are assigned also to the definitions:

// assign one
$definition->addProperty($property);

// replace (deletes all that existed previously)
$definition->setProperties(array($property1, $property2));

// return all
$properties = $definition->getProperties();
