Motivation

  • Improve static analysis for typed Arrayy subclasses by resolving literal dot-notation get() paths against the subclass TData shape and document how to register the extensions.
  • Harden runtime behavior around dot-notation and scalar intermediates so deep-key removal and traversal do not corrupt root arrays or crash on non-array values.
  • Strengthen PHPStan coverage and many phpdoc/template annotations so generic and transformed value types are preserved across each()/map() and collection helpers.

Description

  • Add a marker interface Arrayy\PHPStan\DefaultDotNotationTypeInterface and a PHPStan extension GetDynamicMethodReturnTypeExtension that resolves literal dotted get() paths against typed subclass TData and preserves fallback semantics.
  • Extend MetaDynamicStaticMethodReturnTypeExtension and register both extensions in phpstan.neon and a dedicated fixtures neon file; update README.md and docs to show registering both extensions and example access patterns.
  • Harden path traversal and removal: callAtPath() and internalRemove() now validate array-ness of intermediate nodes (and coerce float keys to int), and extractValue() accepts array|object safely to avoid errors when encountering scalars.
  • Improve Json mapper to accept raversable entries, annotate classMap and handler types, and add runtime/psalm/phpstan-friendly casts and @phpstan-ignore-line where the runtime shapes intentionally diverge from invariant templates.
  • Add a number of phpdoc/template refinements across Arrayy APIs (generics for create*, map, each, chunk, etc.), add small runtime annotations, and sprinkle @phpstan-ignore-line to document and suppress intentional template mismatches.
  • Add new tests and fixtures for PHPStan integration and runtime behavior including tests/PHPStan/* fixtures, GetDynamicMethodReturnTypeExtension unit tests, callable-generic inference tests, and behavioural tests for dot-notation corner cases; update many existing tests to use more precise phpdoc types.
  • Update CHANGELOG.md and built docs to reflect the new PHPStan return-type extension and behavior changes.

Testing

  • Ran the PHPUnit test suite including newly added tests under tests/ and tests/PHPStan/, and all tests completed successfully.
  • Executed PHPStan analysis against the new fixture config (tests/PHPStan/phpstan-fixtures.neon) covering the dynamic return-type extensions, and the fixtures passed with the expected results.
  • Added focused unit tests for GetDynamicMethodReturnTypeExtension and JSON mapper map() behaviours, which passed under CI when running phpunit and the PHPStan fixture checks.

Poem

I’m a rabbit in typed green hay,
I hop through dot paths night and day.
Shapes bloom, fallbacks softly land,
JSON streams pass paw to hand.
Siblings stay; scalars know when to stop—
PHPStan applauds with a carrot hop!

82-85: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Consider flattening the nested ternary for readability.

Functionally correct (for a plain, non-Traversable object, get_object_vars() from outside the class returns the same public-property set a direct foreach would already yield), but the nested ternary is harder to scan than an explicit if/elseif chain.

-            ? $json
-            : (\is_object($json) ? \get_object_vars($json) : $json);
+        if ($json instanceof \Traversable) {

Handle Traversable inputs before broadening this contract.

mixed makes generators and iterators valid for this constructor, but the fallback wraps a non-array/non-Arrayy value as one element. A Traversable is then stored as an iterator object and getType() returns that class instead of the first yielded value, unlike collections backed by actual item lists.

Add a Traversable branch that preserves and inspects its first item, or keep the PHPStan annotation restricted to inputs this constructor handles correctly.

PHP 8 reflection invoke private method setAccessible true documentation

💡 Result:

In PHP 8, specifically beginning with PHP 8.1.0, the ReflectionMethod::setAccessible(true) method is no longer necessary to invoke private or protected methods [1][2][3]. As of PHP 8.1.0, all methods are invokable by default when using the Reflection API [1][4]. Consequently, calling setAccessible() has no effect [1][5][4]. Furthermore, as of PHP 8.5.0, this method has been officially marked as deprecated [1][5]. You can invoke a private method directly using the standard invoke() method: php class MyClass { private function foo() { return 'bar'; } } $method = new ReflectionMethod("MyClass", "foo"); // No setAccessible(true) needed in PHP 8.1+ $obj = new MyClass(); echo $method->invoke($obj); // Outputs: bar While you may still encounter older documentation or legacy codebases suggesting the use of setAccessible(true), it is technically redundant in any environment running PHP 8.1 or later [1][2][3].

Citations:


Don’t invoke getFallbackType() through reflection in this test.

getFallbackType() is a private helper, and this test currently exercises it by bypassing visibility rules via ReflectionMethod::invoke(). Cover the same fallback behavior through getTypeFromMethodCall() with the supported extension inputs instead.
