Functional PHP: Functional primitives for PHP

A set of functional primitives for PHP, heavily inspired by Scala’s traversable collection, Dojo’s array functions and Underscore.js

Works with arrays and everything implementing interface Traversable
Consistent interface: for functions taking collections and callbacks, first parameter is always the collection, than the callback. Callbacks are always passed $value, $index, $collection. Strict comparison is the default but can be changed
Calls 5.3 closures as well as usual callbacks
C implementation for performance but a compatible userland implementation is provided if you can’t install PHP extensions
All functions reside in namespace Functional to not raise conflicts with any other extension or library

Installation

Install native extension

cd functional-php/
phphize
./configure
make
sudo make install

Use userland extension

Using composer

Put the require statement for functional-php in your composer.json file and run php composer.phar install:

{
    "require": {
        "lstrojny/functional-php": "*"
    }
}

Manually

Checkout functional-php and include the _import.php

<?php
include 'path/to/functional-php/src/Functional/_import.php';

Everytime you want to work with Functional PHP and not reference the fully qualified name, add use Functional as F; on top of your PHP file.

Overview

Functional\every() & Functional\invoke()

Functional\every(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

array Functional\invoke(array|Traversable $collection, string $methodName[, array $methodArguments]) mixed Functional\invoke_first(array|Traversable $collection, string $methodName[, array $methodArguments]) mixed Functional\invoke_last(array|Traversable $collection, string $methodName[, array $methodArguments])

<?php
use Functional as F;

// If all users are active, set them all inactive
if (F\every($users, function($user, $collectionKey, $collection) {return $user->isActive();})) {
    F\invoke($users, 'setActive', array(false));
}

Functional\invoke_if()

mixed Functional\invoke_if(mixed $object, string $methodName[, array $methodArguments, mixed $defaultValue])

<?php
use Functional as F;

// if $user is an object and has a public method getId() it is returned,
// otherwise default value 0 (4th argument) is used
$userId = F\invoke_if($user, 'getId', array(), 0);

Functional\some()

bool Functional\some(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

<?php
use Functional as F;

if (F\some($users, function($user, $collectionKey, $collection) use($me) {return $user->isFriendOf($me);})) {
    // One of those users is a friend of me
}

Functional\none()

bool Functional\none(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

<?php
use Functional as F;

if (F\none($users, function($user, $collectionKey, $collection) {return $user->isActive();})) {
    // Do something with a whole list of inactive users
}

Functional\reject() & Functional\select()

array Functional\select(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

array Functional\reject(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

<?php
use Functional as F;

$fn = function($user, $collectionKey, $collection) {
    return $user->isActive();
};
$activeUsers = F\select($users, $fn);
$inactiveUsers = F\reject($users, $fn);

Alias for Functional\select() is Functional\filter()

Functional\drop_first() & Functional\drop_last()

array Functional\drop_first(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

array Functional\drop_last(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

<?php
use Functional as F;

$fn = function($user, $index, $collection) {
    return $index === 3;
};

// All users except the first three
F\drop_first($users, $fn);
// First three users
F\drop_last($users, $fn);

Functional\pluck()

Fetch a single property from a collection of objects or arrays.

array Functional\pluck(array|Traversable $collection, string|integer|float|null $propertyName)

<?php
use Functional as F;

$names = F\pluck($users, 'name');

Functional\partition()

Splits a collection into two by callback. Truthy values come first

array Functional\partition(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

<?php
use Functional as F;

list($admins, $users) = F\partition($collection, function($user) {
    return $user->isAdmin();
});

###Functional\group() Splits a collection into groups by the index returned by the callback

array Functional\group(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

<?php
use Functional as F;

$groupedUser = F\group($collection, $function($user) {
    return $user->getGroup()->getName();
});

Functional\reduce_left() & Functional\reduce_right()

Applies a callback to each element in the collection and reduces the collection to a single scalar value. Functional\reduce_left() starts with the first element in the collection, while Functional\reduce_right() starts with the last element.

mixed Functional\reduce_left(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback[, $initial = null])

mixed Functional\reduce_right(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback[, $initial = null])

<?php
use Functional as F;

// $sum will be 64 (2^2^3)
$sum = F\reduce_left(array(2, 3), function($value, $index, $collection, $reduction) {
    return $reduction ^ $value;
}, 2);

// $sum will be 512 (2^3^2)
$sum = F\reduce_right(array(2, 3), function($value, $index, $collection, $reduction) {
    return $reduction ^ $value;
}, 2);

Functional\flatten()

Takes a nested combination of collections and returns their contents as a single, flat array. Does not preserve indexes.

array Functional\flatten(array|Traversable $collection)

<?php
use Functional as F;

$flattened = F\flatten(array(1, 2, 3, array(1, 2, 3, 4), 5));
// array(1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5);

Functional\first_index_of()

Returns the first index holding specified value in the collection. Returns false if value was not found

array Functional\first_index_of(array|Traversable $collection, mixed $value)

<?php
use Functional as F;

// $index will be 0
$index = F\first_index_of(array('value', 'value'), 'value');

Functional\last_index_of()

Returns the last index holding specified value in the collection. Returns false if value was not found

array Functional\last_index_of(array|Traversable $collection, mixed $value)

<?php
use Functional as F;

// $index will be 1
$index = F\first_index_of(array('value', 'value'), 'value');

Functional\true() / Functional\false()

Returns true or false if all elements in the collection are strictly true or false

bool Functional\true(array|Traversable $collection) bool Functional\false(array|Traversable $collection)

<?php
use Functional as F;

// Returns true
F\true(array(true, true));
// Returns false
F\true(array(true, 1));

// Returns true
F\false(array(false, false, false));
// Returns false
F\false(array(false, 0, null, false));

Functional\truthy() / Functional\falsy()

Returns true or false if all elements in the collection evaluate to true or false

bool Functional\truthy(array|Traversable $collection) bool Functional\falsy(array|Traversable $collection)

<?php
use Functional as F;

// Returns true
F\truthy(array(true, true, 1, 'foo'));
// Returns false
F\truthy(array(true, 0, false));

// Returns true
F\falsy(array(false, false, 0, null));
// Returns false
F\falsy(array(false, 'str', null, false));

Functional\contains()

Returns true if given collection contains given element. If third parameter is true, the comparison will be strict

bool Functional\contains(array|Traversable $collection, mixed $value[, bool $strict = false])

<?php
use Functional as F;

// Returns true
F\contains(array('el1', 'el2'), 'el1');

// Returns false
F\contains(array('0', '1', '2'), 2);
// Returns true
F\contains(array('0', '1', '2'), 2, false);

Functional\zip()

Recombines arrays by index and applies a callback optionally

array Functional\zip(array|Traversable $collection1[, array|Traversable ...[, callable $callback]])

<?php
use Functional as F;

// Returns array(array('one', 1), array('two', 2), array('three', 3))
Functional\zip(array('one', 'two', 'three'), array(1, 2, 3));

// Returns array('one|1', 'two|2', 'three|3')
Functional\zip(
    array('one', 'two', 'three'),
    array(1, 2, 3),
    function($one, $two) {
        return $one . '|' . $two;
    }
);

Additional functions:

void Functional\each(array|Traversable $collection, callable $callback)

mixed Functional\first(array|Traversable $collection[, callable $callback])
mixed Functional\head(array|Traversable $collection[, callable $callback])
Returns the first element of the collection where the callback returned true. If no callback is given, the first element is returned

mixed Functional\last(array|Traversable $collection[, callable $callback])
Returns the last element of the collection where the callback returned true. If no callback is given, the last element is returned

mixed Functional\tail(array|Traversable $collection[, callable $callback])
