The in-memory repository

The TijmenWierenga\Repositories\InMemoryRepository is a simple array-based storage that performs persistence related actions.

all(): T[]

Returns all items stored in the repository.

$users = [
    new User(1),
    new User(2),
    new User(3),
];

$repository = new InMemoryRepository($users);

$users = $repository->all(); // returns an array with all users.

find(Closure $criteria): T|null

Returns the first item that matches the criteria. Returns null is no match is found

$users = [
    new User(1),
    new User(2),
    new User(3),
];

$repository = new InMemoryRepository($users);

$user = $repository->find(fn (User $user): bool => $user->id === 1); // Returns user with ID of 1.

findMany(Closure $criteria): T[]

Returns all items that match the criteria.

$users = [
    new User(1),
    new User(2),
    new User(3),
];

$repository = new InMemoryRepository($users);

$user = $repository->findMany(fn (User $user): bool => $user->id > 1); // Returns all users with a ID greater than 1.

add(T $item): void

Adds a new item to the collection.

$repository = new InMemoryRepository();

$repository->add(new User(1)); // User is now added to the collection.

remove(Closure $criteria): void

Removes all items from the collection that match the criteria.

$users = [
    new User(1),
    new User(2),
    new User(3),
];

$repository = new InMemoryRepository($users);

$repository->remove(fn (User $user): bool => $user->id === 1); // Removes user with an ID of 1.

first(): T|null

Returns the first item in the collection. Returns null is the collection is empty.

$users = [
