The builder design pattern allows to dynamically create objects in a way that the same process of construction can allow multiple representations of the object that can be changed over time according to the needs of a project.
This package implements the builder design pattern with a concrete builder class that generates code for classes dynamically to implement a representation of the object class being built at run time.

Updated on: 2016-08-23
Posted on: 2016-08-23
Dependency injection is design pattern often used implement functionality on one class using objects from external classes without hardcoding the dependency between the two classes.
Several PHP frameworks implement their own dependency injection containers but since each one implements it in a different way, a generic container interface was defined to allow to call components of one framework to be called from by components of any other framework.
The package implements a component with the generic dependency injection container interface so application services and other types of applications not based on CakePHP can be easily used with CakePHP.

Updated on: 2016-08-19
Posted on: 2016-08-19
When you want to connect to a remote machine that is connected to a group of peers but you do not know its address, one common solution is to connect to central server and ask the addresses of the peers to communicate with them.
This technique is used by NAT servers (Network Address Translators) that are often running on router machines in order to route requests to remote machines from local network computers.
This process is called hole punching because it uses an intermediary server to get the addresses of the remote machines, so the client can communicate with them.
This PHP package implements a server with one class that can keeps the list of connected client machines and returns the list of peer addresses and ports.
The client class connects to the server class to get the peer machine address list, so it can send messages to them using UDP packets.

Updated on: 2016-12-23
Posted on: 2016-08-18
A recent proposal is being discussed for PHP 7 feature called lazy statements. It would allow developers to assign values to variables based on code that is only executed when the variable is accessed for the first time, thus avoiding executing the code if the variable ends up never being accessed.
That was one of the main topics discussed by Manuel Lemos and Arturs Sosins in the episode 74 of the Lately in PHP podcast hangout.
They also talked about the HTTPoxy vulnerability that affects some important PHP projects, as well the usual proposals for upcoming PHP versions like autoloading for global functions, different syntax for returning $this for classes that provide fluent interfaces, support for arbitrary method in the built-in PHP Web server, a new structured object notation for creating objects, etc..
They also mentioned features to be discontinued in PHP 7.1 like SSL 2 support and some extensions that will not ship with PHP 7.1 anymore.
This article includes a transcript of the podcast summary.
