Method Details

filterByValue() public static method #

Filters an array to only the values where a given key (the name of a sub-array key or sub-object property) is set to a given value.

Array keys are preserved.

public static array filterByValue ( $array, $key, $value, \craft\helpers\bool $strict false )
$array array, Traversable The array that needs to be indexed or grouped
$key string, Closure The column name or anonymous function which result will be used to index the array
$value mixed The value that $key should be compared with
$strict boolean Whether a strict type comparison should be used when checking array element values against $value
return array The filtered array

filterEmptyStringsFromArray() public static method #

Filters empty strings from an array.

public static array filterEmptyStringsFromArray ( array $arr )
$arr array

firstKey() public static method #

Returns the first key in a given array.

public static string, integer, null firstKey ( array $arr )
$arr array
return string, integer, null The first key, whether that is a number (if the array is numerically indexed) or a string, or null if $arr isn’t an array, or is empty.

firstValue() public static method #

Returns the first value in a given array.

public static mixed firstValue ( array $arr )
$arr array
return mixed The first value, or null if $arr isn’t an array, or is empty.

prependOrAppend() public static method #

Prepends or appends a value to an array.

public static void prependOrAppend ( array &$array, $value, \craft\helpers\bool $prepend )
$array
$value mixed The value to prepend/append to the array
$prepend boolean true will prepend the value; false will append it

rename() public static method #

Renames an item in an array. If the new key already exists in the array and the old key doesn’t, the array will be left unchanged.

public static void rename ( array &$array, \craft\helpers\string $oldKey, \craft\helpers\string $newKey, $default null )
$array array The array to extract value from
$oldKey string Old key name of the array element
$newKey string New key name of the array element
$default mixed The default value to be set if the specified old key does not exist

toArray() public static method #

Converts an object or an array of objects into an array.

public static array toArray ( $object, $properties = [], $recursive true )
$object object, array, string The object to be converted into an array
$properties array A mapping from object class names to the properties that need to put into the resulting arrays. The properties specified for each class is an array of the following format: [ 'app\models\Post' => [ 'id', 'title', // the key name in array result => property name 'createTime' => 'created_at', // the key name in array result => anonymous function 'length' => function ($post) { return strlen($post->content); }, ], ] The result of ArrayHelper::toArray($post, $properties) could be like the following: [ 'id' => 123, 'title' => 'test', 'createTime' => '2013-01-01 12:00AM', 'length' => 301, ]
$recursive boolean Whether to recursively converts properties which are objects into arrays.
return array The array representation of the object
