About Curryable

This package is under development, please don't use it on production and wait for the stable release!

Curryable was created by, and is maintained by Nuno Maduro, and is an elegant and simple curry(f) implementation in PHP. Currying is an advanced technique of working with functions. It wraps the given expressions and arguments into a new function that resolves a value.

Installation & Usage

Requires PHP 7.2+

Create your package using Composer:

composer require nunomaduro/curryable

This helper usage is best described through example in the Laravel framework:

On routing

Route::get('/', curry('view', 'welcome'));

// Instead of
Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

Route::get('user/{id}', curry(User::class)->find());
// Or with Eloquent macro
Route::get('user/{id}', User::curry()->find());

// Instead of
Route::get('user/{id}', function ($id) {
    return User::find($id);
});

On macros

Renaming the lower method to toLower:

Str::macro('toLower', curry()->lower());
// or with the global `strtolower`
Str::macro('toLower', curry('strtolower'));

// Instead of
Str::macro('toLower', function ($value) {
    return Str::lower($value);
});

On collections

Using the global strtoupper:

$collection = collect(['nuno'])->map(curry('strtoupper')); // ['NUNO']

// Instead of
$collection = collect(['nuno'])->map(function ($name) {
    return strtoupper($name);
});

Here is another example using the each:

// Calls User::create($user) foreach user
collect($users)->each(User::curry()->create());

// Instead of
$collection = collect($users)->map(function ($user) {
    return User::create($user);
});

Dispatching jobs:

dispatch(curry(Artisan::class)->call('horizon:terminate'));

// Instead of
dispatch(function () {
    Artisan::call('horizon:terminate');
});

Curry on class instance methods

With global helper:

$closure = curry($instance)->instanceMethodName();
$closure($first, $second);

$closure = curry($instance)->instanceMethodName($first);
$closure($second); // just need for the second argument

$closure = curry($instance)->instanceMethodName($first, $second);
$closure(); // no need for arguments

With trait NunoMaduro\Curryable\Curryable:

$closure = $instance->curry()->instanceMethodName();
$closure($first, $second);

$closure = $instance->curry()->instanceMethodName($first);
$closure($second); // just need for the second argument

$closure = $instance->curry()->instanceMethodName($first, $second);
$closure(); // no need for arguments

Curry on class static methods

// Curry on instance methods
$closure = curry(Instance::class)->staticMethodName();
$closure($first, $second);

$closure = curry(Instance::class)->staticMethodName($first);
$closure($second); // just need for the second argument

$closure = curry(Instance::class)->staticMethodName($first, $second);
$closure(); // no need for arguments

Curry on functions

// Curry on instance methods
$closure = curry('function_name');
$closure($first, $second);

$closure = curry('function_name', $first);
$closure($second); // just need for the second argument

$closure = curry('function_name', $first, $second);
$closure(); // no need for arguments
