MemberMetadata

class MemberMetadata extends GenericMetadata implements PropertyMetadataInterface

Stores all metadata needed for validating a class property.

The method of accessing the property's value must be specified by subclasses by implementing the {@link newReflectionMember()} method.

This class supports serialization and cloning.

Properties

Constraint[] $constraints from GenericMetadata
array $constraintsByGroup from GenericMetadata
int $cascadingStrategy The strategy for cascading objects. from GenericMetadata
int $traversalStrategy The strategy for traversing traversable objects. from GenericMetadata
string $class
string $name
string $property

Methods

string[] __sleep()

Returns the names of the properties that should be serialized.

__clone()

Clones this object.

from GenericMetadata
GenericMetadata addConstraint(Constraint $constraint)

Adds a constraint.

GenericMetadata addConstraints(array $constraints)

Adds an list of constraints.

from GenericMetadata
Constraint[] getConstraints()

Returns all constraints of this element.

from GenericMetadata
bool hasConstraints()

Returns whether this element has any constraints.

from GenericMetadata
Constraint[] findConstraints(string $group)

Returns all constraints for a given validation group.

from GenericMetadata
int getCascadingStrategy()

Returns the strategy for cascading objects.

from GenericMetadata
int getTraversalStrategy()

Returns the strategy for traversing traversable objects.

from GenericMetadata
__construct(string $class, string $name, string $property)

Constructor.

string getName()

Returns the name of the member.

getClassName()

{@inheritdoc}

string getPropertyName()

Returns the name of the property.

bool isPublic(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns whether this member is public.

bool isProtected(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns whether this member is protected.

bool isPrivate(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns whether this member is private.

ReflectionMethod|ReflectionProperty getReflectionMember(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns the reflection instance for accessing the member's value.

Details

string[] __sleep()

Returns the names of the properties that should be serialized.

Return Value

string[]

__clone()

Clones this object.

GenericMetadata addConstraint(Constraint $constraint)

Adds a constraint.

If the constraint {@link Valid} is added, the cascading strategy will be changed to {@link CascadingStrategy::CASCADE}. Depending on the $traverse property of that constraint, the traversal strategy will be set to one of the following:

  • {@link TraversalStrategy::IMPLICIT} if $traverse is enabled
  • {@link TraversalStrategy::NONE} if $traverse is disabled

Parameters

Constraint $constraint The constraint to add

Return Value

GenericMetadata This object

Exceptions

ConstraintDefinitionException When trying to add the {@link Traverse} constraint

GenericMetadata addConstraints(array $constraints)

Adds an list of constraints.

Parameters

array $constraints The constraints to add

Return Value

GenericMetadata This object

Constraint[] getConstraints()

Returns all constraints of this element.

Return Value

Constraint[] A list of Constraint instances

bool hasConstraints()

Returns whether this element has any constraints.

Return Value

bool

Constraint[] findConstraints(string $group)

Returns all constraints for a given validation group.

Parameters

string $group The validation group

Return Value

Constraint[] A list of constraint instances

int getCascadingStrategy()

Returns the strategy for cascading objects.

Return Value

int The cascading strategy

int getTraversalStrategy()

Returns the strategy for traversing traversable objects.

Return Value

int The traversal strategy

__construct(string $class, string $name, string $property)

Constructor.

Parameters

string $class The name of the class this member is defined on
string $name The name of the member
string $property The property the member belongs to

string getName()

Returns the name of the member.

Return Value

string

getClassName()

{@inheritdoc}

string getPropertyName()

Returns the name of the property.

Return Value

string The property name.

bool isPublic(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns whether this member is public.

Parameters

object|string $objectOrClassName The object or the class name

Return Value

bool

bool isProtected(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns whether this member is protected.

Parameters

object|string $objectOrClassName The object or the class name

Return Value

bool

bool isPrivate(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns whether this member is private.

Parameters

object|string $objectOrClassName The object or the class name

Return Value

bool

ReflectionMethod|ReflectionProperty getReflectionMember(object|string $objectOrClassName)

Returns the reflection instance for accessing the member's value.

Parameters

object|string $objectOrClassName The object or the class name

Return Value

ReflectionMethod|ReflectionProperty The reflection instance
