This package offers an invade function that will allow you to read/write private properties of an object. It will also allow you to call private methods.
We invest a lot of resources into creating best in class open source packages. You can support us by buying one of our paid products.

The original idea for the invade function came from Caleb "string king" Porzio. We slightly polished the code that he created in this commit on Livewire.
