SuperGlobals

v1.0.0

SuperGlobals is a PHP library for safe and convenient handling of SuperGlobals such as $_GET, $_POST, $_SESSION, $_COOKIE.

• Safe because you can use special methods to validate or filter requested value "on the fly"
• Convenient because it makes application code short and meaningful, without useless repetitions, making it ''extra'' DRY

Using this library you can:

• write Get::get('key'); instead of isset($_GET['key']) ? $_GET['key'] : '';

• put a default value as a second attribute like this: Get::get('foo', 'bar'); this returns 'bar' when $_GET['foo'] is not set.

• use methods like Get::int('p'); for getting an integer value, for page number. If you want to use default "1" in this keys, you should write Get::int('p', 1);

• use the same interface for different SuperGlobals: $_GET, $_POST, $_SESSION, $_COOKIE (use Get::get('foo'); for $_GET['foo'], or Cookie::get('foo'); for $_COOKIE['foo'])

We have such a methods:

• get(string $key, string $default = '') : string - Returns the value of the preset key, or the preset default value.

• int(string $key, int $default = 0) : int - Returns the value of the preset key, if it is integer or the preset default value.

• float(string $key, float $default = 0) : float - Returns the value of the preset key, if it is float or the preset default value.

• array(string $key, array $default = array()) : array - Returns the value of the preset key, if it is an array or the preset default value.

• ident(string $key, string $default = '') : string - Returns the value of the preset key, if it contains only this: a-zA-Z0-9_- symbols, or the preset default value.

• isDefined(string $key) : bool - Returns TRUE if the the the preset key is defined, or FALSE if it is not.

• isNull(string $key) : bool - Returns TRUE if the value of the the preset key is not set, or FALSE otherwise.

• isNotSet(string $key) : bool - Returns FALSE if the value of the the preset key is not set, or TRUE otherwise.

• is1(string $key) : bool - Returns TRUE only if value of the $key == 1;

• isEmpty(string $key, bool $ifNotSet = false) : bool - Returns TRUE if value of the $key == ''
