Set

Gestionar correctamente las matrices puede ser una herramienta muy útil, poderosa y puede ayudar a construir un código más optimizado y elegante. Para esto, CakePHP ofrece un conjunto muy útil de utilidades estáticas en la clase Set.

Se puede llamar a la clase Set de CakePHP desde cualquier modelo o controlador, del mismo modo que se llama a Inflector. Por ejemplo, Set::combine().

Set-compatible Path syntax

The Path syntax is used by (for example) sort, and is used to define a path.

Usage example (using Set::sort()):

$a = array(
    0 => array('Person' => array('name' => 'Jeff')),
    1 => array('Shirt' => array('color' => 'black'))
);
$result = Set::sort($a, '{n}.Person.name', 'asc');
/* $result now looks like:
    Array
    (
        [0] => Array
            (
                [Shirt] => Array
                    (
                        [color] => black
                    )
            )
        [1] => Array
            (
                [Person] => Array
                    (
                        [name] => Jeff
                    )
            )
    )
*/

As you can see in the example above, some things are wrapped in {}”s, others not. In the table below, you can see which options are available.

Expression

Definition

{n}

Represents a numeric key

{s}

Represents a string

Foo

Any string (without enclosing brackets) is treated like a string literal.

{[a-z]+}

Any string enclosed in brackets (besides {n} and {s}) is interpreted as a regular expression.

This section needs to be expanded.

insert

array Set::insert ($list, $path, $data = null)

Inserta $data en un arreglo segun es definido en $path.

$a = array(
    'pages' => array('name' => 'page')
);
$result = Set::insert($a, 'files', array('name' => 'files'));
/* $result ahora queda como:

reverse

array Set::reverse ($object)

Set::reverse es básicamente el opuesto de Set::map. Convierte un objeto en un arreglo. Si $object no es un objeto, reverse simplemente retornará $object.

// Null
$result = Set::reverse(false);
// false

        array('id'=> 1, 'title' => 'First Tag'),
        array('id'=> 2, 'title' => 'Second Tag')
    ),
);
$map = Set::map($a); // Convierte $a en un objeto de clase
/* $map ahora queda como:

combine

array Set::combine ($data, $path1 = null, $path2 = null, $groupPath = null)

Crea un arreglo asociativo usando un $path1 como la ruta para construir las llaves, y opcionalmente $path2 como la ruta para obtener los valores. Si $path2 no es especificado, todos los valores serán inicializados como null (lo cual es útil para Set::merge). Opcionalmente se pueden agrupar los valores obtenidos según la ruta especificada en $groupPath.

$result = Set::combine(array(), '{n}.User.id', '{n}.User.Data');
// $result == array();

$result = Set::combine('', '{n}.User.id', '{n}.User.Data');

extract

array Set::extract ($path, $data=null, $options=array())

Set::extract utiliza la sintáxis básica XPath 2.0 para retornar subconjuntos de la data resultante de un find(). Esta función permite extraer datos rápidamente sin tener que hacer un ciclo a través de un arreglos multidimensionales o de estructuras de árbol.

Si $path es un arreglo o $data es vacío la llamada se redirigirá a la función Set::classicExtract.

// Uso común:
$users = $this->User->find("all");
$results = Set::extract('/User/id', $users);
// results retorna:
// array(1,2,3,4,5,...);

Los seleccionadores implementados actualmente son:

Seleccionador

Descripción

/User/id

Similar al clásico {n}.User.id

/User[2]/name

format

array Set::format ($data, $format, $keys)

Returns a series of values extracted from an array, formatted in a format string.

$data = array(
    array('Person' => array('first_name' => 'Nate', 'last_name' => 'Abele', 'city' => 'Boston', 'state' => 'MA', 'something' => '42')),
    array('Person' => array('first_name' => 'Larry', 'last_name' => 'Masters', 'city' => 'Boondock', 'state' => 'TN', 'something' => '{0}')),
    array('Person' => array('first_name' => 'Garrett', 'last_name' => 'Woodworth', 'city' => 'Venice Beach', 'state' => 'CA', 'something' => '{1}')));

$res = Set::format($data, '{1}, {0}', array('{n}.Person.first_name', '{n}.Person.last_name'));
/*

enum

string Set::enum ($select, $list=null)

The enum method works well when using html select elements. It returns a value from an array list if the key exists.

If a comma separated $list is passed arrays are numeric with the key of the first being 0 $list = “no, yes” would translate to $list = array(0 => “no”, 1 => “yes”);

If an array is used, keys can be strings example: array(“no” => 0, “yes” => 1);

$list defaults to 0 = no 1 = yes if param is not passed

$res = Set::enum(1, 'one, two');
// $res is 'two'

$res = Set::enum('no', array('no' => 0, 'yes' => 1));
// $res is 0

$res = Set::enum('first', array('first' => 'one', 'second' => 'two'));
// $res is 'one'

numeric

boolean Set::numeric ($array=null)

Checks to see if all the values in the array are numeric

$data = array('one');
$res = Set::numeric(array_keys($data));

// $res is true

$data = array(1 => 'one');
$res = Set::numeric($data);

// $res is false

$data = array('one');
$res = Set::numeric($data);

// $res is false

$data = array('one' => 'two');
$res = Set::numeric($data);

// $res is false

$data = array('one' => 1);
$res = Set::numeric($data);

// $res is true

$data = array(0);
$res = Set::numeric($data);

// $res is true

$data = array('one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five');
$res = Set::numeric(array_keys($data));

// $res is true

$data = array(1 => 'one', 2 => 'two', 3 => 'three', 4 => 'four', 5 => 'five');
$res = Set::numeric(array_keys($data));

// $res is true

$data = array('1' => 'one', 2 => 'two', 3 => 'three', 4 => 'four', 5 => 'five');
$res = Set::numeric(array_keys($data));

// $res is true

$data = array('one', 2 => 'two', 3 => 'three', 4 => 'four', 'a' => 'five');
$res = Set::numeric(array_keys($data));

// $res is false

map

object Set::map ($class = 'stdClass', $tmp = 'stdClass')

This method Maps the contents of the Set object to an object hierarchy while maintaining numeric keys as arrays of objects.

Basically, the map function turns array items into initialized class objects. By default it turns an array into a stdClass Object, however you can map values into any type of class. Example: Set::map($array_of_values, “nameOfYourClass”);

$data = array(
    array(
        "IndexedPage" => array(
            "id" => 1,
            "url" => 'http://blah.com/',
            'hash' => '68a9f053b19526d08e36c6a9ad150737933816a5',
            'get_vars' => '',
            'redirect' => '',
            'created' => "1195055503",
            'updated' => "1195055503",
        )
    ),
    array(
        "IndexedPage" => array(
            "id" => 2,
            "url" => 'http://blah.com/',
            'hash' => '68a9f053b19526d08e36c6a9ad150737933816a5',
            'get_vars' => '',
            'redirect' => '',
            'created' => "1195055503",
            'updated' => "1195055503",
        ),
    )
);
$mapped = Set::map($data);

/* $mapped now looks like:

    Array
    (
        [0] => stdClass Object
            (
                [_name_] => IndexedPage
                [id] => 1
                [url] => http://blah.com/
                [hash] => 68a9f053b19526d08e36c6a9ad150737933816a5
                [get_vars] =>
                [redirect] =>

                [updated] => 1195055503
            )

        [1] => stdClass Object
            (
                [_name_] => IndexedPage
                [id] => 2
                [url] => http://blah.com/

                [updated] => 1195055503
            )

    )

*/

Using Set::map() with a custom class for second parameter:

class MyClass {
    function sayHi() {
        echo 'Hi!';
    }
}

$mapped = Set::map($data, 'MyClass');
//Now you can access all the properties as in the example above,
//but also you can call MyClass's methods
$mapped->[0]->sayHi();

pushDiff

array Set::pushDiff ($array1, $array2)

This function merges two arrays and pushes the differences in array2 to the bottom of the resultant array.

Example 1

$array1 = array('ModelOne' => array('id'=>1001, 'field_one'=>'a1.m1.f1', 'field_two'=>'a1.m1.f2'));
$array2 = array('ModelOne' => array('id'=>1003, 'field_one'=>'a3.m1.f1', 'field_two'=>'a3.m1.f2', 'field_three'=>'a3.m1.f3'));
$res = Set::pushDiff($array1, $array2);

/* $res now looks like:
    Array
    (
        [ModelOne] => Array
            (
                [id] => 1001
                [field_one] => a1.m1.f1
                [field_two] => a1.m1.f2
                [field_three] => a3.m1.f3
            )
    )
*/

Example 2

$array1 = array("a"=>"b", 1 => 20938, "c"=>"string");
$array2 = array("b"=>"b", 3 => 238, "c"=>"string", array("extra_field"));
$res = Set::pushDiff($array1, $array2);
/* $res now looks like:
    Array
    (
        [a] => b
        [1] => 20938
        [c] => string
        [b] => b
        [3] => 238
        [4] => Array
            (
                [0] => extra_field
            )
    )
*/

filter

array Set::filter ($var, $isArray=null)

Filtra los elementos vacíos de una ruta de arreglo, excluyendo el cero “0”.

$res = Set::filter(array('0', false, true, 0, array('una cosa', 'Te digo', 'es asi', false)));

/* $res now looks like:
    Array (
        [0] => 0
        [2] => 1
        [3] => 0
        [4] => Array
            (
                [0] => una cosa
                [1] => Te digo
                [2] => es asi
                [3] =>
            )
    )
*/

merge

array Set::merge ($arr1, $arr2=null)

Esta función se puede considerar como un híbrido entre las funciones array_merge y arraymerge_recursive, ambas de PHP. La diferencia esta en que si un arreglo de llaves contiene otro arreglo entonces la función se comporta recursivamente, a diferencia de array_merge, pero no lo hace si las llaves que contienen strings, a diferencia de array_merge_recursive. Verifica el test de unidad para mas información.

Esta función trabaja sobre un numero ilimitado de argumentos y hace un casting como arreglos a los argumentos que no lo sean.

$arry1 = array(
    array(
        'id' => '48c2570e-dfa8-4c32-a35e-0d71cbdd56cb',
        'name' => 'mysql raleigh-workshop-08 < 2008-09-05.sql ',
        'description' => 'Importing an sql dump'
    ),
    array(
        'id' => '48c257a8-cf7c-4af2-ac2f-114ecbdd56cb',
        'name' => 'pbpaste | grep -i Impago | pbcopy',
        'description' => 'Eliminar las lineas que dicen "Impago".',
    )
);
$arry2 = 4;
$arry3 = array(0=>"Arreglo de prueba", "gatos"=>"perros");
$res = Set::merge($arry1, $arry2, $arry3);

/* $res ahora queda como:
    Array
    (
        [0] => Array
            (
                [id] => 48c2570e-dfa8-4c32-a35e-0d71cbdd56cb

contains

boolean Set::contains ($val1, $val2 = null)

Determines if one Set or array contains the exact keys and values of another.

$a = array(
    0 => array('name' => 'main'),
    1 => array('name' => 'about')
);
$b = array(
    0 => array('name' => 'main'),
    1 => array('name' => 'about'),
    2 => array('name' => 'contact'),
    'a' => 'b'
);

$result = Set::contains($a, $a);
// True
$result = Set::contains($a, $b);
// False
$result = Set::contains($b, $a);
// True
