Arrays

The Arrays module in the framework serves as a reservoir of handy array helper methods, simplifying and accelerating the manipulation of arrays in your projects.

Below is an outline of the available public methods within the Arrays module:

• has(array $arr, mixed $key): bool: Checks if an array has a non-empty value by key. The key supports the usual dot-notation for sub-arrays.
• get(array $arr, mixed $key, mixed $default = null): mixed: Retrieves a specific value from an array. The key supports the usual dot-notation for sub-arrays.
• getLastElement(array $arr): mixed: Gets the last element of an array without removing it.
• array_merge_recursive(array &$array1, array &$array2): array: Merges two arrays recursively without duplicated entries.
• sortByTwoKeys(array &$arr, mixed $key1, mixed $key2, string $order = 'desc'): void: Sorts an array by two sub-array values.
• hasDuplicates(array $array): bool: Checks if an array has duplicates.

For more advanced tasks on arrays we provide Array Collections.

Laravel Collections, an elegant wrapper around arrays with a multitude of handy methods, significantly streamline array data manipulation. Similarly, the Array Collection within our framework, built upon Laravel Collections, offers a rich set of functionalities for array manipulation. You can utilize methods from Laravel Collections on our Array Collection.

Example:

$arr = ['Foo', 'Bar', 'Baz'];
$arraycollection = C::Arrays()->from($arr);
$arraycollection->contains('Bar'); // true

Leverage the full breadth of Laravel Collections' methods as outlined in the official documentation to enrich your array manipulation capabilities within the framework.

The Arrays module, coupled with the robust Array Collection, empowers developers with a suite of tools for efficient array manipulation, embodying a blend of simplicity, efficiency, and the richness of functionalities carried over from Laravel Collections.
