Collection

A drop-in for WordPress sites and themes to make managing collections of data and entities easier. Accessing top-level collections in WordPress are easy, but subsets of those can be more difficult. Collection fixes that.

What is a Collection?

A Collection is... well, pretty much anything: IDs, colors, keys, text snippets, images... anything in WordPress. I frequently needed to access a subset of posts, pages, products, events, etc., and creating a Collection keeps those subsets readily available. Think of it as a fancy array of data.

Features

• registration via register_collection() or Collection::register()
• easily accessible using get_collection() or Collection::get()
• implements caching using WordPress cache (within prequest and via transients)
• set lifetime of items easily
• items are directly accessible as an array, iterable, and countable
• searchable
• plenty of actions and filters
• access log (track use)
• duplication detection with WP_DEBUG
