Linq technology in php language.
composer require linq/php-linq ~1.0Base class that performs queries over the collections of objects and over the array.
List of methods
- from() - set primary source
- first() - return first item from collection
- last() - return last item from collection
- select($key = null, $key2 = null) - return result. You can use callable as first param
- count() - return length of collection
- take($offset, $length = null) - return first x items || return interval
- skip($offset) - skip x items a and return other data
- where($condition) - returns only elements that match a given condition
- reverse() - reverse collection
- orderBy($column, $desc = false) - sort. desc = descending. defalt asc = ascending
- distinct() - return unique items
- takeWhile($requirement) - combination = where(condition) + select()
- union($array) - union in sql
- groupBy($key) - Group data
- innerJoin($array) - return only elements that combine both fields
- leftJoin($array) - the first collection will list all entries, even those which do not connect with other collections
- on($condition) - Condition for join two collections
- in($filter) - Accepts an array of values which elements must acquire
- notIn($filter) - negation of "in" method
- onlyKeys($keys) - filtering data by key
- row_to_column($main_node) - split by a specific key. This key becomes a major hub

->groupBy("Job")
->select()The class takes data source in JSON format. Returns array.
testing data
$userJsonData = json_encode($userData);
$sportJsonData = json_encode($sportData);example of use
$linq = \Linq\LinqFactory::createJsonLinq();
echo '<pre>'; var_dump(
$linq
->from($userJsonData)
->takeWhile(function($user){
return ($user["Job"] === "php Programátor" && $user["age"] > 20);
})
);The class takes data source in JSON format. Returns array.
The "from" method accept string or SimpleXmlElement. If out choose xml in string, so you will work with array. If you choose xml in SimlpeXmlElement object, so you will work with collection of std objects.
