Final Class Phalcon\Registry

Source on GitHub

Namespace Phalcon   Uses Traversable   Extends Collection

Phalcon\Registry

A registry is a container for storing objects and values in the application space. By storing the value in a registry, the same object is always available throughout your application.

$registry = new \Phalcon\Registry();

// Set value
$registry->something = "something";
// or
$registry["something"] = "something";

// Get value
$value = $registry->something;
// or
$value = $registry["something"];

// Check if the key exists
$exists = isset($registry->something);
// or
$exists = isset($registry["something"]);

// Unset
unset($registry->something);
// or
unset($registry["something"]);

In addition to ArrayAccess, Phalcon\Registry also implements Countable (count($registry) will return the number of elements in the registry), Serializable and Iterator (you can iterate over the registry using a foreach loop) interfaces. For PHP 5.4 and higher, JsonSerializable interface is implemented.

Phalcon\Registry is very fast (it is typically faster than any userspace implementation of the registry); however, this comes at a price: Phalcon\Registry is a final class and cannot be inherited from.

Though Phalcon\Registry exposes methods like __get(), offsetGet(), count() etc, it is not recommended to invoke them manually (these methods exist mainly to match the interfaces the registry implements): $registry->__get(“property”) is several times slower than $registry->property.

Internally all the magic methods (and interfaces except JsonSerializable) are implemented using object handlers or similar techniques: this allows to bypass relatively slow method calls.

Methods

final public function __construct( array $data = null );

Constructor

final public function __get( string $element ): mixed;

Magic getter to get an element from the collection

final public function __isset( string $element ): bool;

Magic isset to check whether an element exists or not

final public function __set( string $element, mixed $value ): void;

Magic setter to assign values to an element

final public function __unset( string $element ): void;

Magic unset to remove an element from the collection

final public function clear(): void;

Clears the internal collection

final public function count(): int;

Count elements of an object

@link https://php.net/manual/en/countable.count.php

final public function get( string $element, mixed $defaultValue = null, string $cast = null ): mixed;

Get the element from the collection

final public function getIterator(): Traversable;

Returns the iterator of the class

final public function has( string $element ): bool;

Determines whether an element is present in the collection.

final public function init( array $data = [] ): void;

Initialize internal array

final public function jsonSerialize(): array;

Specify data which should be serialized to JSON

@link https://php.net/manual/en/jsonserializable.jsonserialize.php

final public function offsetExists( mixed $element ): bool;

Whether a offset exists

@link https://php.net/manual/en/arrayaccess.offsetexists.php

final public function offsetGet( mixed $element ): mixed;

Offset to retrieve

@link https://php.net/manual/en/arrayaccess.offsetget.php

final public function offsetSet( mixed $element, mixed $value ): void;

Offset to set

@link https://php.net/manual/en/arrayaccess.offsetset.php

final public function offsetUnset( mixed $element ): void;

Offset to unset

@link https://php.net/manual/en/arrayaccess.offsetunset.php

final public function remove( string $element ): void;

Delete the element from the collection

final public function serialize(): string;

String representation of object

@link https://php.net/manual/en/serializable.serialize.php

final public function set( string $element, mixed $value ): void;

Set an element in the collection

final public function toArray(): array;

Returns the object in an array format

final public function toJson( int $options = int ): string;

Returns the object in a JSON format

The default string uses the following options for json_encode

JSON_HEX_TAG, JSON_HEX_APOS, JSON_HEX_AMP, JSON_HEX_QUOT, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES
