README

Simply put, it takes the output of the last one and pipes it to the next one. Sorta like bash cat ./file | grep -e 'waldo'

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require inmanturbo/pipes

Or just copy or download the functions.php file from this repository.

Usage

pipe()

require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

use function Inmanturbo\Pipes\pipe;

$addOne = fn ($number = 0) => $number + 1;

$five = pipe($addOne) // 1
    ->pipe(fn ($number) => $number + 1) // 2
    ->pipe($addOne) // 3
    ->pipe($addOne) // 4
    ->thenReturn(); // 4

It doesn't delay execution

$fifty = pipe(1);

    while ($fifty->result() < 50) {
        $fifty->pipe(fn ($number) => ++$number);
    }

echo $fifty->result();
// 50
     

You can also pass a class or a class string

use function Inmanturbo\Pipes\pipe;

class Subtract
{
    public function __invoke($number)
    {
        return $number - 1;
    }
}

$addOne = fn ($number = 0) => $number + 1;

$six = pipe($addOne, 1)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->then(fn ($number) => ++$number);

$five = pipe($six)
    ->pipe(Subtract::class)
    ->thenReturn();

$three = pipe(new Subtract, $five)
    ->pipe(new Subtract)
    ->thenReturn();

Returning results

results can be returned three ways:

then() or thenReturn() both a take final callback and return the result, or result(), which simply returns the result.

$addOne = fn ($number = 0) => $number + 1;

$six = pipe($addOne, 1)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->then(fn ($number) => ++$number);

$sixAgain = pipe($addOne, 1)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->thenReturn(fn ($number) => ++$number);

$five = pipe($addOne, 1)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->pipe($addOne)
    ->result();

Halting the pipeline

halt()

You can return halt() from a callback to halt the chain. halt takes an optional result as an argument which you can pass as the final result() of the chain. Subsequent calls to ->pipe() will not affect the final result.

    use function Inmanturbo\Pipes\{pipe, halt};

    $fortyFive = pipe(1);

    $count = 1;
    while ($count < 50) {
        $fortyFive->pipe(fn ($number) => $number < 45 ? ++$number : halt($number));

        $count ++;
    }

    echo $fortyFive->result();

    // 45

    echo $fortyFive->pipe(fn ($number) => ++$number)->result();

    // 45

You can also call halt on the pipe itself

    use function Inmanturbo\Pipes\{pipe, halt};

    $fortyFive = pipe(1);

    $count = 1;
    while ($count < 50) {
        
        if (($number = $fortyFive->result()) >= 45) {
            $fortyFive->halt($number);
        }

        $fortyFive->pipe(fn ($number) => ++$number);

        $count ++;
    }

    echo $fortyFive->result();

    // 45

    echo $fortyFive->pipe(fn ($number) => ++$number)->result();

    // 45

resume()

You can resume the piping with resume. pipe()->resume() takes an optional callback and behaves the same as pipe()->pipe() if a callback is passed

use function Inmanturbo\Pipes\{pipe, halt};

$fortySix = pipe(1);

$count = 1;
while ($count < 50) {
    
    if (($number = $fortySix->result()) >= 45) {
        $fortySix->halt($number);
    }

    $fortySix->pipe(fn ($number) => ++$number);

    $count ++;
}

echo $fortySix->result();

// 45

echo $fortySix->resume(fn ($number) => ++$number)->result();

// 46

hop() and Laravel

This package doesn't require laravel to use pipe or hop(), but hop() (higher-order-pipe) is a higher order function intended for working with Laravel's Pipeline helper. This higher-order-function takes a callback which takes a single argument, and wraps the $callback for you in a closure which implements function($next, $passable).

use Illuminate\Pipeline\Pipeline;

use function Inmanturbo\Pipes\hop;

class Add {
    public function add($number)
    {
        return $number +1;
    }
}
class InvokeAdd {
    public function __invoke($number)
    {
        return $number +1;
    }
}

$five = (new Pipeline)->send(1)
    ->pipe(hop(fn($number) => $number +1))
    ->pipe(hop(new InvokeAdd))
    ->pipe(hop(InvokeAdd::class))
    ->pipe(hop(fn($number) => (new Add)->add($number)))
->thenReturn();

// 5

You can optionally pass a single middleware as a second argument to hop(), and it will get called before the first argument, which allows you to determine if the pipeline should halt before the $callback ever gets executed.

$limitThreeMiddleware = function ($number, $next) {
    if($number >= 3) {
        Log::info('Limit hit');
        return $number;
    }

    return $next($number);
};

$five = (new Pipeline)->send(1)
    ->pipe(hop(fn($number) => $number +1, $limitThreeMiddleware))
    ->pipe(hop(new InvokeAdd, $limitThreeMiddleware))
    // Limit hit
    ->pipe(hop(InvokeAdd::class, $limitThreeMiddleware))
    ->pipe(hop(fn($number) => (new Add)->add($number), $limitThreeMiddleware))
->thenReturn();
