Easily store some loose values
, (*1)
This package makes it easy to store and retrieve some loose values. Stored values are saved as a json file., (*2)
It can be used like this:, (*3)
use Spatie\Valuestore\Valuestore;
$valuestore = Valuestore::make($pathToFile);
$valuestore->put('key', 'value');
$valuestore->get('key'); // Returns 'value'
$valuestore->has('key'); // Returns true
// Specify a default value for when the specified key does not exist
$valuestore->get('non existing key', 'default') // Returns 'default'
$valuestore->put('anotherKey', 'anotherValue');
// Put multiple items in one go
$valuestore->put(['ringo' => 'drums', 'paul' => 'bass']);
$valuestore->all(); // Returns an array with all items
$valuestore->forget('key'); // Removes the item
$valuestore->flush(); // Empty the entire valuestore
$valuestore->flushStartingWith('somekey'); // remove all items whose keys start with "somekey"
$valuestore->increment('number'); // $valuestore->get('number') will return 1
$valuestore->increment('number'); // $valuestore->get('number') will return 2
$valuestore->increment('number', 3); // $valuestore->get('number') will return 5
// Valuestore implements ArrayAccess
$valuestore['key'] = 'value';
$valuestore['key']; // Returns 'value'
isset($valuestore['key']); // Return true
unset($valuestore['key']); // Equivalent to removing the value
// Valuestore implements Countable
count($valuestore); // Returns 0
$valuestore->put('key', 'value');
count($valuestore); // Returns 1
