Different text-related parsing mechanisms, like creating regexps for path parsing, extracting templates variables etc.
Needed to generate a regexp for a particular path, like when generating a router table from an OpenApi specification.
Please see URI Templates for in-depth explanation of patterns syntax.
<?php
$parser = new OpenApiParser();
// simple pattern
$pattern = $parser->getRegex('/users/{id}');
echo $pattern;
// outputs: #^/users/(?P<id>[^:/?\#\[\]@!$&'()*+;=]+)$#
$result = preg_match($pattern, '/users/123,234', $matches);
echo $matches['id'];
// outputs: 123,234
// complex pattern
$pattern = $parser->getRegex(
'/users{id}/friends{friend}',
[
'id' => ['style' => 'matrix'],
'friend' => ['style' => 'label', 'explode' => true],
]
);
preg_match(
$pattern,
'/users;id=3,4,5/friends.6.7.8',
$matches
);
echo $matches['id'], ' - ', $matches['friend'];
// outputs: ;id=3,4,5 - .6.7.8
