base on Provides the functionality to export PHP variables for visualization [![Latest Stable Version](https://poser.pugx.org/sebastian/exporter/v)](https://packagist.org/packages/sebastian/exporter) [![CI Status](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/exporter/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/exporter/actions) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/sebastianbergmann/exporter/branch/main/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/sebastianbergmann/exporter) # sebastian/exporter This component provides the functionality to export PHP variables for visualization. ## Installation You can add this library as a local, per-project dependency to your project using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/): ``` composer require sebastian/exporter ``` If you only need this library during development, for instance to run your project's test suite, then you should add it as a development-time dependency: ``` composer require --dev sebastian/exporter ``` ## Usage Exporting: ```php <?php use SebastianBergmann\Exporter\Exporter; $exporter = new Exporter; /* Exception Object &0000000078de0f0d000000002003a261 ( 'message' => '' 'string' => '' 'code' => 0 'file' => '/home/sebastianbergmann/test.php' 'line' => 34 'previous' => null ) */ print $exporter->export(new Exception); ``` ## Data Types Exporting simple types: ```php <?php use SebastianBergmann\Exporter\Exporter; $exporter = new Exporter; // 46 print $exporter->export(46); // 4.0 print $exporter->export(4.0); // 'hello, world!' print $exporter->export('hello, world!'); // false print $exporter->export(false); // NAN print $exporter->export(acos(8)); // -INF print $exporter->export(log(0)); // null print $exporter->export(null); // resource(13) of type (stream) print $exporter->export(fopen('php://stderr', 'w')); // Binary String: 0x000102030405 print $exporter->export(chr(0) . chr(1) . chr(2) . chr(3) . chr(4) . chr(5)); ``` Exporting complex types: ```php <?php use SebastianBergmann\Exporter\Exporter; $exporter = new Exporter; /* Array &0 ( 0 => Array &1 ( 0 => 1 1 => 2 2 => 3 ) 1 => Array &2 ( 0 => '' 1 => 0 2 => false ) ) */ print $exporter->export(array(array(1,2,3), array("",0,FALSE))); /* Array &0 ( 'self' => Array &1 ( 'self' => Array &1 ) ) */ $array = array(); $array['self'] = &$array; print $exporter->export($array); /* stdClass Object &0000000003a66dcc0000000025e723e2 ( 'self' => stdClass Object &0000000003a66dcc0000000025e723e2 ) */ $obj = new stdClass(); $obj->self = $obj; print $exporter->export($obj); ``` Compact exports: ```php <?php use SebastianBergmann\Exporter\Exporter; $exporter = new Exporter; // Array () print $exporter->shortenedExport(array()); // Array (...) print $exporter->shortenedExport(array(1,2,3,4,5)); // stdClass Object () print $exporter->shortenedExport(new stdClass); // Exception Object (...) print $exporter->shortenedExport(new Exception); // this\nis\na\nsuper\nlong\nstring\nt...\nspace print $exporter->shortenedExport( <<<LONG_STRING this is a super long string that wraps a lot and eats up a lot of space LONG_STRING ); ``` ", Assign "at most 3 tags" to the expected json: {"id":"2485","tags":[]} "only from the tags list I provide: [{"id":77,"name":"3d"},{"id":89,"name":"agent"},{"id":17,"name":"ai"},{"id":54,"name":"algorithm"},{"id":24,"name":"api"},{"id":44,"name":"authentication"},{"id":3,"name":"aws"},{"id":27,"name":"backend"},{"id":60,"name":"benchmark"},{"id":72,"name":"best-practices"},{"id":39,"name":"bitcoin"},{"id":37,"name":"blockchain"},{"id":1,"name":"blog"},{"id":45,"name":"bundler"},{"id":58,"name":"cache"},{"id":21,"name":"chat"},{"id":49,"name":"cicd"},{"id":4,"name":"cli"},{"id":64,"name":"cloud-native"},{"id":48,"name":"cms"},{"id":61,"name":"compiler"},{"id":68,"name":"containerization"},{"id":92,"name":"crm"},{"id":34,"name":"data"},{"id":47,"name":"database"},{"id":8,"name":"declarative-gui "},{"id":9,"name":"deploy-tool"},{"id":53,"name":"desktop-app"},{"id":6,"name":"dev-exp-lib"},{"id":59,"name":"dev-tool"},{"id":13,"name":"ecommerce"},{"id":26,"name":"editor"},{"id":66,"name":"emulator"},{"id":62,"name":"filesystem"},{"id":80,"name":"finance"},{"id":15,"name":"firmware"},{"id":73,"name":"for-fun"},{"id":2,"name":"framework"},{"id":11,"name":"frontend"},{"id":22,"name":"game"},{"id":81,"name":"game-engine "},{"id":23,"name":"graphql"},{"id":84,"name":"gui"},{"id":91,"name":"http"},{"id":5,"name":"http-client"},{"id":51,"name":"iac"},{"id":30,"name":"ide"},{"id":78,"name":"iot"},{"id":40,"name":"json"},{"id":83,"name":"julian"},{"id":38,"name":"k8s"},{"id":31,"name":"language"},{"id":10,"name":"learning-resource"},{"id":33,"name":"lib"},{"id":41,"name":"linter"},{"id":28,"name":"lms"},{"id":16,"name":"logging"},{"id":76,"name":"low-code"},{"id":90,"name":"message-queue"},{"id":42,"name":"mobile-app"},{"id":18,"name":"monitoring"},{"id":36,"name":"networking"},{"id":7,"name":"node-version"},{"id":55,"name":"nosql"},{"id":57,"name":"observability"},{"id":46,"name":"orm"},{"id":52,"name":"os"},{"id":14,"name":"parser"},{"id":74,"name":"react"},{"id":82,"name":"real-time"},{"id":56,"name":"robot"},{"id":65,"name":"runtime"},{"id":32,"name":"sdk"},{"id":71,"name":"search"},{"id":63,"name":"secrets"},{"id":25,"name":"security"},{"id":85,"name":"server"},{"id":86,"name":"serverless"},{"id":70,"name":"storage"},{"id":75,"name":"system-design"},{"id":79,"name":"terminal"},{"id":29,"name":"testing"},{"id":12,"name":"ui"},{"id":50,"name":"ux"},{"id":88,"name":"video"},{"id":20,"name":"web-app"},{"id":35,"name":"web-server"},{"id":43,"name":"webassembly"},{"id":69,"name":"workflow"},{"id":87,"name":"yaml"}]" returns me the "expected json"
