README

Reflective is a formally defined reflection mechanism in PHP, which is used to query detailed information about classes, methods, properties, functions, etc.

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require reflective/reflection

Usage

Gets an array of methods for current class.

use Reflective\Reflection\ReflectionClass;

$ref = new ReflectionClass(AccountController::class);
dd(
    $ref->getDeclaredMethods(),
    $ref->getDeclaredMethods(ReflectionMethod::IS_PUBLIC | ReflectionMethod::IS_PROTECTED),
);

Returns an array of class parents.

use Reflective\Reflection\ReflectionClass;

$ref = new ReflectionClass(AccountController::class);
dd(
    $ref->getDeclaredParentClass(),
    $ref->getDeclaredParentClass(BaseController::class),
    $ref->getDeclaredParentClass(BaseController::class, ReflectionClass::IS_INSTANCEOF),
);

Note: Reflective\Reflection\ReflectionClass is a subclass of \ReflectionClass and has the same methods.

use Reflective\Reflection\ReflectionParentClass;

$ref = new ReflectionParentClass(AccountController::class);
dd(
    $ref->getDeclaredParentClass(),
    $ref->getDeclaredParentClass(BaseController::class),
    $ref->getDeclaredParentClass(BaseController::class, ReflectionParentClass::IS_INSTANCEOF),
);

Note: Reflective\Reflection\ReflectionParentClass is a subclass of Reflective\Reflection\ReflectionClass and has the same methods.
