Stephan Schmidt, 1&1 Internet AG Go OO! Real-Life Design Patterns in PHP5

Agenda What are Design Patterns? PHP5's new OO features Creational Patterns Structural Patterns Behavioral Patterns A Look at SPL Real-Life Appliances

The speaker Working for 1&1 Internet AG Founding member of PHP Application Tools (pat) Active developer of the PEAR community Writing for several PHP magazines

What are Design Patterns? standard solutions to common problems in software architecture independent of the programming language ease the communication between the developers typically describe the interaction of classes and objects

PHP5's new OO features OO-model has been completely revamped objects are not any longer just "improved arrays" new SPL extension

Pass-by-reference class Foo { var $val = 'Foo'; } $foo = new Foo(); $bar = $foo; $bar->val = 'Bar'; echo $bar->val . "\n"; echo $foo->val . "\n"; Bar Foo Bar Bar PHP 5 PHP 4

Constructors/Destructors Constructor is named __construct() Destructor is named __destruct() class Foo { public function __construct() { print "Foo created\n"; } public function __destruct() { print "Foo destroyed\n"; } } $bar = new Foo(); unset($bar);

Visibility Restrict access to properties and methods of a class. public := all protected := class and descendants private := only the class

Visibility (2): Example class Foo { private $foo = 'foo'; public $bar = 'bar'; protected $tomato = 'tomato'; } $bar = new Foo(); print "{$bar->bar}\n"; print "{$bar->foo}\n"; $ php visibility.php bar Fatal error: Cannot access private property Foo::$foo in /home/schst/go-oo/visibility.php on line 9

Static methods/properties Available outside of the object context can be public/private/protected self::$foo instead of $this->foo class Foo { public static $foo = 'bar'; public static function getFoo() { return self::$foo; } } print Foo::$foo . "\n"; print Foo::getFoo() . "\n";

Object Abstraction Abstract classes cannot be instantiated abstract class AbstractClass { abstract public function doSomething(); } class ConcreteClass extends AbstractClass { public function doSomething() { print "I've done something.\n"; } } $foo = new ConcreteClass(); $bar = new AbstractClass(); Fatal error: Cannot instantiate abstract class AbstractClass in ... on line 11

Interfaces Specify the methods a class has to implement without defining how they are implemented Classes may implement more than one interface If a class does not implement all methods of an interface => E_FATAL

Interfaces (2): Example interface IRequest { public function getValue($name); public function getHeader($name); } class HttpRequest implements IRequest { public function getValue($name) { return $_REQUEST[$name]; } } Fatal error: Class HttpRequest contains 1 abstract methods and must therefore be declared abstract (IRequest::getHeader) in /home/schst/go-oo/interfaces.php on line 10

Property Overloading Intercept access to properties, that do not exist class Foo { private $props = array('foo' => 'bar'); public function __get($prop) { if (!isset($this->props[$prop])) { return null; } return $this->props[$prop]; } } $foo = new Foo(); print "{$foo->foo}\n";

Method Overloading Intercept calls to methods, that do not exist class Foo { public function __call($method, $args) { if (is_callable($method)) { return call_user_func_array($method, $args); } return null; } } $foo = new Foo(); print $foo->strrev('tomato') . "\n";

__toString() Change string-cast behavior of an object class User { private $id; private $name; public function __construct($id, $name) { $this->id = $id; $this->name = $name; } public function __toString() { return "{$this->name} ({$this->id})\n"; } } $schst = new User('schst', 'Stephan Schmidt'); print $schst;

Object Iteration Objects can be used in foreach-statements class PearDevelopers { public $schst = 'Stephan Schmidt'; public $luckec = 'Carsten Lucke'; } $users = new PearDevelopers(); foreach ($users as $id => $name) { print "$id is $name\n"; } schst is Stephan Schmidt luckec is Carsten Lucke

Misc additions Object cloning $bar = clone $foo; Type hints for objects public function foo (MyClass $obj) {} Exception Handling Reflection API __autoload() SPL

Creational Patterns Create objects Hide the creational process Your application does not need to know, how the object has to be created Allows you to hide the concrete implementation Dynamic object configuration

Factory Method Create objects based on some input Hides the object creation PEAR makes heavy use of this, like in PEAR::DB $con = DB::connect('mysql://user:pass@host/db'); The returned object is an instance of a subclass of DB_common based on the database type

Singleton Makes sure that only one instance of a class exists class Registry { private static $instance = null; private function __construct() {} public $foo; public function singleton() { if (is_null(self::$instance)) { self::$instance = new Registry(); } return self::$instance; } }

Singleton (2): Usage Commonly used for Configurations / Registries Sharing DB connections (combine it with factory method) Request objects … $reg1 = Registry::singleton(); $reg2 = Registry::singleton(); $reg1->foo = 'Bar'; print $reg2->foo . "\n";

Structural Patterns Define the relationships between classes and/or objects Object-composition Often use inheritance and interfaces

Decorator Allows you to dynamically add functionality to an object Used for functionality that is used only in some cases Often used to avoid inheritance or when inheritance is not possible Decorator wraps the original objects

Decorator (2): Component class String { private $string = null; public function __construct($string) { $this->string = $string; } public function __toString() { return $this->string; } public function getLength() { return strlen($this->string); } public function getString() { return $this->string; } public function setString($string) { $this->string = $string; } }

Decorator (3): Abstract An abstract decorator abstract class String_Decorator { protected $obj; public function __construct($obj) { $this->obj = $obj; } public function __call($method, $args) { if (!method_exists($this->obj, $method)) { throw new Exception('Unknown method called.'); } return call_user_func_array( array($this->obj, $method), $args); } }

Decorator (4): Bold Concrete Decorator class String_Decorator_Bold extends String_Decorator { public function __toString() { return '' . $this->obj->__toString() . ''; } } Usage $str = new String('Decorators are cool'); $strBold = new String_Decorator_Bold($str); print $strBold;

Decorator (5): Reverse Adding a method class String_Decorator_Reverse extends String_Decorator { public function reverse(){ $str = $this->obj->getString(); $this->obj->setString(strrev($str)); } } Usage $str = new String('Decorators are cool'); $strRev = new String_Decorator_Reverse($str); $strRev->reverse(); print $strRev;

Decorator (6): Combination Combining decorators $str = new String('Decorators are cool'); $strBold = new String_Decorator_Bold($str); $strRev = new String_Decorator_Reverse($strBold); $strRev->reverse(); print $strRev;

Proxy Provides a placeholder for an objects to control or access this objects Very common with webservices or application servers $client = new SoapClient( 'http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl'); $result = $client->doGoogleSearch(…);

Proxy (2): Implementation Catch all method calls on the Proxy using __call() class Proxy { public function __construct() { // establish connection to the original object } public function __call($method, $args) { // forward the call to the original object // using any protocol you need } }

Delegator Similar to Proxy Often referred to as "Chained Proxy" Acts as a proxy to several objects Intercept calls to all unknown methods and forward those to any of the delegates, that provides these methods Ready-to-use implementation for PHP: PEAR_Delegator

Delegator (2): Example The Delegator class Foo extends PEAR_Delegator { public function __construct() { parent::_construct(); } public function __destruct() { parent::__destruct(); } public function displayFoo() { print "foo\n"; } }

Delegator (3): Example The Delegates class Delegate1 { public function displayBar() { print "bar\n"; } } class Delegate2 { public function displayTomato() { print "tomato\n"; } }

Delegator (4): Example Usage $delegator = new Foo(); $delegate1 = new Delegate1(); $delegate2 = new Delegate2(); $delegator->addDelegate($delegate1); $delegator->addDelegate($delegate2); $delegator->displayFoo(); $delegator->displayBar(); $delegator->displayTomato();

Behavioral patterns Provide solutions for communication between objects Increase the flexibility of the communication

Observer Define a one-to-many dependency between objects so that when one object changes state, all its dependents are notified and updated automatically. First step to event-based development Often used for logging techniques

Observer (2): Subject class Subject { private $observers = array(); public $state = null; public function attach(Observer $observer) { $this->observers[] = $observer; } public function detach(Observer $observer) { // remove the observer } public function notify() { for ($i = 0; $i < count($this->observers); $i++) { $this->observers[$i]->update(); } } }

Observer (3): Observer class Observer { private $subject; private $name public function __construct($subject, $name) { $this->subject = $subject; $this->name = $name; } public function update() { $state = $this->subject->state; print $this->name.": State of subject is $state\n"; } }

Observer (4): Usage $subj = new Subject(); $ob1 = new Observer($subj, 'Observer 1'); $ob2 = new Observer($subj, 'Observer 2'); $subj->attach($ob1); $subj->attach($ob2); $subj->state = "authenticated"; $subj->notify();

Standard PHP Library Bundled with PHP 5 and enabled by default Collection of interfaces Iterators ArrayAccess, Countable Subject/Observer (PHP 5.1) Collection of Classes Iterators Exceptions, FileObject (PHP 5.1)

ArrayAccess Allows you to access any object as it were an array Interface provided by SPL public function offsetExists($offset); public function offsetGet($offset); public function offsetSet($offset, $value); public function offsetUnset($offset); Only works with [] array syntax

ArrayAccess (2): Example class Foo implements ArrayAccess { private $props = array('foo' => 'Bar'); public function offsetExists($offset) { return isset($this->props[$offset]); } public function offsetGet($offset) { return $this->props[$offset]; } public function offsetSet($offset, $value) { $this->props[$offset] = $value; } public function offsetUnset($offset) { unset($this->props[$offset]); } }

ArrayAccess (3): Example $obj = new Foo(); print $obj['foo'] . "\n"; $obj['bar'] = 3452; if (isset($obj['bar'])) { print $obj['bar'] . "\n"; } $ php arrayAccess.php Bar 3452

Abstracting HTTP Requests Create request object to access request properties Replaces $_GET, $_POST, $_SERVER High level of abstraction Provides flexibility Implements ArrayAccess interface to allow $request['property'] syntax for a shallow learning curve

Request (2): Example abstract class Request implements ArrayAccess { protected $properties = array(); public function offsetExists($offset) { return isset($this->properties[$offset]); } public function offsetGet($offset) { return $this->properties[$offset]; } public function offsetSet($offset, $value) { $this->properties[$offset] = $value; } public function offsetUnset($offset) { unset($this->properties[$offset]); } }

Request (3): HTTP class Request_HTTP extends Request { public function __construct() { $this->properties = $_REQUEST; } } $request = new Request_HTTP(); if (isset($request['foo'])) { echo $request['foo']; } else { echo "property foo has not been set"; } http://www.example.com/?foo=bar

Replacing the Request Request_HTTP can be replaced by any class with the same interface Request_CLI Request_SOAP Combine this with singleton and factory method: $request = Request::get('HTTP');

Request (4): CLI class Request_CLI extends Request { public function __construct() { array_shift($_SERVER['argv']); foreach ($_SERVER['argv'] as $pair) { list($key, $value) = explode('=', $pair); $this->properties[$key] = $value; } } } $request = new Request_CLI(); if (isset($request['foo'])) { echo $request['foo']; } else { echo "property foo has not been set"; } $ ./script.php foo=bar

Intercepting filters Allows you to preprocess the request data Apply centralized authentication mechanism Validate/modify request properties Forward based on the URI Borrowed from J2EE Servlets

Intercepting filters (2) abstract class Request implements ArrayAccess { … protected $filters = array(); public function addFilter(InterceptingFilter $filter) { $this->filters[] = $filter; } protected function applyFilters() { for ($i = 0; $i < $this->filters; $i++) { $this->filters[$i]->doFilter($this); } } } Changes to Request

Intercepting filters (3) Simple filter interface class Request_HTTP extends Request { public function __construct() { $this->properties = $_REQUEST; $this->applyFilters(); } } interface InterceptingFilter { public function doFilter(Request $request); } Changes to Request_HTTP

Iterators Interface that allows you to influence the way foreach-iterates over an object mixed public function current(); mixed public function key(); void public function next(); boolean public function valid(); void public function rewind(); Traverse any data using foreach (dir listing, array, text file, etc.)

Iterators (2): Example class CSVFile implements Iterator { protected $file; protected $fp; protected $line; protected $key = -1; public function __construct($file) { $this->file = $file; $this->fp = @fopen($this->file, 'r'); if (!$this->fp) { throw new Exception('Could not open file.'); } } public function __desctruct() { fclose($this->fp); }

Iterators (3): Example cont. public function next(){ if (!feof($this->fp)) { $this->key++; $this->line = fgetcsv($this->fp); $this->valid = true; } else { $this->valid = false; } } public function rewind() { $this->key = -1; fseek($this->fp, 0); $this->next(); } }

Iterators (4): Example cont. public function current() { return $this->line; } public function key() { return $this->key; } public function valid() { return $this->valid; } }

Iterators (5): Example cont. $csvFile = new CSVFile('users.csv'); foreach ($csvFile as $entry) { print_r($entry); } Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => 'schst', [1] => 'Stephan Schmidt' ), [1] => Array ( [0] => 'luckec', [1] => 'Carsten Lucke' ), )

Recursive Iterators Extends the Iterator interface boolean public function hasChildren(); Iterator public function getChildren(); getChildren() returns an object that implements Iterator Traverse hierarchical data using the class RecursiveIteratorIterator

Abstracting data structures Iterators allow you to abstract hierarchical structures in your application using foreach. The user of the data does not know how it is computed, but only traverses it. Simple example: Page definition files in a MVC-framework.

Example: Page defintions One page per configuration file: title = "Homepage" desc = "This is the homepage" class = "Homepage" Navigation structure in the filesystem: index.ini projects.ini projects/ pat.ini pear.ini pear/ services_ebay.ini xml_serializer.ini

Example: Page Class class Page { public $name; public $title; public $desc; public function __construct($basePath, $name) { $fname = $basePath . '/' . $name . '.ini'; $tmp = parse_ini_file($fname); $this->name = $name; $this->title = $tmp['title']; $this->desc = $tmp['desc']; } } $home = new Page('pages', 'index'); print $home->title;

Example: Sitemap Class class Sitemap implements Iterator { protected $path; protected $pos = 0; protected $pages = array(); public function __construct($path) { $this->path = $path; if (file_exists($this->path)) { $dir = dir($path); while ($entry = $dir->read()) { $this->pages[] = new Page($this->path, $entry); } } } …

Example: Sitemap Class (2) public function current() { return $this->pages[$this->pos]; } public function key() { return $this->pos; } public function next() { ++$this->pos; } public function rewind() { $this->pos = 0; } public function valid() { return isset($this->pages[$this->pos]); } }

Example: Sitemap Usage User does not need to know when and how the page objects are created and in which order they are traversed. INI files can be substituted with XML, content from a database, etc. $sitemap = new Sitemap('pages'); foreach ($sitemap as $page) { echo $page->title . " \n"; }

Example: Going recursive class Page extends Sitemap { … public function __construct($basePath, $name) { $fname = $basePath . '/' . $name . '.ini'; $tmp = parse_ini_file($fname); $this->name = $name; $this->title = $tmp['title']; $this->desc = $tmp['desc']; $subPath = $basePath . '/' . $this->name; parent::__construct($subPath); } public function hasPages() { return !empty($this->pages); } }

Example: Going recursive Restricted to two levels :( Not intuitive $sitemap = new Sitemap('pages'); foreach ($sitemap as $page) { echo $page->title . ' '; foreach ($page as $subPage) { echo ' - ' . $subPage->title . ' '; } }

Example: Going recursive class Sitemap implements RecursiveIterator { … public function hasChildren() { return $this->pages[$this->pos]->hasPages(); } public function getChildren() { return $this->pages[$this->pos]; } }

Example: Done $sitemap = new Sitemap('pages'); $iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator($sitemap, RIT_SELF_FIRST); foreach ($iterator as $page) { $depth = $iterator->getDepth(); if ($depth > 0) { echo str_repeat(' ', $depth*2) . ' - '; } echo $page->title . ' '; } Homepage Projects - PAT-Projects - PEAR-Projects - Services_Ebay - XML_Serializer
