Objectives

This package aims to help you serialize and deserialize objects into JSON with maximum performances. To do so, no reflection is used and the developer must implement 2 methods for each objects. It depends on php 7.4+ and Symfony 5.0+

Installation

composer require wizbii/json-serializer-bundle

Usage

First, create an object that implement ArraySerializable interface:

use Wizbii\JsonSerializerBundle\ArraySerializable;

class SimpleSerializableObject implements ArraySerializable
{
    private string $foo;

    public function serialize(): array
    {
        return [
            'foo' => $this->foo,
        ];
    }

    public static function deserialize(array $contentAsArray)
    {
        return (new SimpleSerializableObject())->setFoo($contentAsArray['foo'] ?? '');
    }

    public function getFoo(): string
    {
        return $this->foo;
    }

    public function setFoo(string $foo): SimpleSerializableObject
    {
        $this->foo = $foo;

        return $this;
    }
}

Then, use the Serializer service to (de)serialize it:

class MyController
{
    private Serializer $serializer;
    
    public function __construct(Serializer $serializer) {
        $this->serializer = $serializer;
    }

    public function getSimpleObjectAction() {
        $simpleObject = (new SimpleObject())->setFoo('bar');
        return new Response($this->serializer->serialize($simpleObject));
    }

    public function getFoo() {
        $content = '{"foo":"bar"}';
        $simpleObject = $this->serializer->deserialize($content, SimpleObject::class);
        return new Response($simpleObject->getFoo());
    } 
}
