<?php

use Xtompie\Pipe\Pipe;

$result = Pipe::new('  <h1>Hello World</h1>  ')

    ->lower()
    ->ucfirst()
    ->htmlspecialchars()
    ->get();

The output will be: Hello world

• addslashes() - Adds slashes before characters that need to be escaped in a string.
• explode(string $delimiter) - Splits the string by the specified delimiter.
• htmlspecialchars() - Converts special characters to HTML entities.
• implode(string $glue = ‘’) - Joins array elements into a string using the specified glue.
• lower() - Converts all alphabetic characters to lowercase.
• map(callable $callback) - Applies the callback function to the current value and returns a new Pipe object with the transformed value.
• md5() - Calculates the MD5 hash of a string.
• nl2br() - Inserts HTML line breaks before all newlines in a string.
• object(string $type) - Converts the current value into a specified object.
• replace(string $search, string $replace) - Replaces occurrences of the search string with the replacement string.
• reverse() - Reverses the string.
• sha1() - Calculates the SHA-1 hash of a string.
• length() - Returns the length of the string.
• slice() - Extract a slice of the array

• stripTags() - Strips HTML and PHP tags from a string.
• substr(int $start, int $length = null) - Returns part of a string.

• ucfirst() - Capitalizes the first letter of the string.
• ucwords() - Capitalizes the first letter of each word in a string.
• upper() - Converts all alphabetic characters to uppercase.

Creating a specific transformation pipeline

You can extend the Pipe class to create a specific pipeline with custom methods.

<?php

use Xtompie\Pipe\Pipe;

class CustomPipe extends Pipe
{
    public function reverseAndUpper(): static
    {
        return $this->reverse()->upper();
    }
}

$result = CustomPipe::new('Hello World')
    ->reverseAndUpper()
    ->get();

echo $result;

The output will be: DLROW OLLEH
