Simple and Lightweight PHP Class & Methods Annotations Reader

Sample class User.php

<?php
/**
 * @Defaults(name="user1", lastname = "sample", age='0', address={country=USA, state=NY}, phone="000-00000000")
 * @assertResult(false)
 * @cache(collation = UTF-8)
 */
class User
{
    /**
     * @cache(true)
     * @type(json)
     * @limits(start=10, limit=50)
     */
    function load(){
    }

    /**
     * create a record
     *
     * @Permission(view)
     * @Permission(edit)
     * @Role(administrator)
     */
    public function create()
    {
    }
}

Sample use.

---

include 'User.php';
$annotations = new Annotations();
$result = $annotations->getClassAnnotations('User');
print_r($result);

Result:

Array
(
    [Defaults] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [name] => user1
                    [lastname] => sample
                    [age] => 0
                    [address] => Array
                        (
                            [country] => USA
                            [state] => NY
                        )

                    [phone] => 000-00000000
                )

        )

    [assertResult] => Array
        (
            [0] => false
        )

    [cache] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [collation] => UTF-8
                )

        )

)

---

$result = $annotations->getMethodAnnotations('User', 'create');
print_r($result);

Result:

Array
(
    [Permission] => Array
        (
            [0] => view
            [1] => edit
        )

    [Role] => Array
        (
            [0] => administrator
        )

Creating Annotated objects.

You can crate fast annotated objects.

Sample Annotated Classes.

---

<?php
// Annotation.php

abstract class Annotation
{
    protected $data = array();

    public function __construct($args = array())
    {
        $this->data = $args;
    }

    public function set($key, $value)
    {
        $this->data[$key] = $value;
    }

    public function get($key, $default = null)
    {
        if (empty($this->data[$key])) {
            return $default;
        }

        return $this->data[$key];
    }

    public function exists($key)
    {
        return isset($this->data[$key]);
    }
}

---

<?php
// PermissionAnnotation.php
namespace Annotation;

class PermissionAnnotation extends Annotation
{
}

---

<?php
namespace Base\Annotation;
// RoleAnnotation.php

class RoleAnnotation extends Annotation
{
}

---

require_once 'Annotation/Annotation.php';
require_once 'Annotation/PermissionAnnotation.php';
require_once 'Annotation/RoleAnnotation.php';

$annotations->setDefaultAnnotationNamespace('\Annotation\\');
$result = $annotations->getMethodAnnotationsObjects('User', 'create');
print_r($result);

Result:

Array
(
    [Permission] => Base\Annotation\PermissionAnnotation Object
        (
            [data:protected] => Array
                (
                    [0] => view
                    [1] => edit
                )

        )

    [Role] => Base\Annotation\RoleAnnotation Object
        (
            [data:protected] => Array
                (
                    [2] => administrator
                )

        )

)
