Member Function Documentation

◆ arrayDiffAssocRecursive()

◆ arrayExport()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::arrayExport ( array  $array = [],
  $level = 0 
)
static

◆ filterByValueRecursive()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::filterByValueRecursive (   $needle = '',
array  $haystack = [] 
)
static

Reduce an array by a search value and keep the array structure.

Comparison is type strict:

  • For a given needle of type string, integer, array or boolean, value and value type must match to occur in result array
  • For a given object, an object within the array must be a reference to the same object to match (not just different instance of same class)

Example:

  • Needle: 'findMe'
  • Given array: array( 'foo' => 'noMatch', 'bar' => 'findMe', 'foobar => array( 'foo' => 'findMe', ), );
  • Result: array( 'bar' => 'findMe', 'foobar' => array( 'foo' => findMe', ), );

See the unit tests for more examples and expected behaviour

Parameters
mixed$needleThe value to search for
array$haystackThe array in which to search
Returns
array $haystack array reduced matching $needle values

)
static

Converts a multidimensional array to a flat representation.

See unit tests for more details

Example:

  • array: array( 'first.' => array( 'second' => 1 ) )
  • result: array( 'first.second' => 1 )

Example:

  • array: array( 'first' => array( 'second' => 1 ) )
  • result: array( 'first.second' => 1 )
Parameters
array$arrayThe (relative) array to be converted
string$prefixThe (relative) prefix to be used (e.g. 'section.')
Returns
array

◆ getValueByPath()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::getValueByPath ( array  $array,
  $path,
  $delimiter = '/' 
)
static

◆ inArray()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::inArray ( array  $in_array,
  $item 
)
static

Check if an string item exists in an array. Please note that the order of function parameters is reverse compared to the PHP function in_array()!!!

Comparison to PHP in_array(): -> $array = array(0, 1, 2, 3); -> variant_a := ::inArray($array, $needle) -> variant_b := in_array($needle, $array) -> variant_c := in_array($needle, $array, TRUE) +------—+--------—+--------—+--------—+ | $needle | variant_a | variant_b | variant_c | +------—+--------—+--------—+--------—+ | '1a' | FALSE | TRUE | FALSE | | '' | FALSE | TRUE | FALSE | | '0' | TRUE | TRUE | FALSE | | 0 | TRUE | TRUE | TRUE | +------—+--------—+--------—+--------—+

Parameters
array$in_arrayOne-dimensional array of items
string$itemItem to check for
Returns
bool TRUE if $item is in the one-dimensional array $in_array

◆ intersectRecursive()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::intersectRecursive ( array  $source,
array  $mask = [] 
)
static

Determine the intersections between two arrays, recursively comparing keys A complete sub array of $source will be preserved, if the key exists in $mask.

See unit tests for more examples and edge cases.

Example:

  • source: array( 'key1' => 'bar', 'key2' => array( 'subkey1' => 'sub1', 'subkey2' => 'sub2', ), 'key3' => 'baz', )
  • mask: array( 'key1' => NULL, 'key2' => array( 'subkey1' => exists', ), )
  • return: array( 'key1' => 'bar', 'key2' => array( 'subkey1' => 'sub1', ), )
Parameters
array$sourceSource array
array$maskArray that has the keys which should be kept in the source array
Returns
array Keys which are present in both arrays with values of the source array

◆ isValidPath()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::isValidPath ( array  $array,
  $path,
  $delimiter = '/' 
)
static

Checks if a given path exists in array

Example:

  • array: array( 'foo' => array( 'bar' = 'test', ) );
  • path: 'foo/bar'
  • return: TRUE
Parameters
array$arrayGiven array
string$pathPath to test, 'foo/bar/foobar'
string$delimiterDelimiter for path, default /
Returns
bool TRUE if path exists in array

◆ keepItemsInArray()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::keepItemsInArray ( array  $array,
  $keepItems,
  $getValueFunc = null 
)
static

Filters an array to reduce its elements to match the condition. The values in $keepItems can be optionally evaluated by a custom callback function.

Example (arguments used to call this function): $array = array( array('aa' => array('first', 'second'), array('bb' => array('third', 'fourth'), array('cc' => array('fifth', 'sixth'), ); $keepItems = array('third'); $getValueFunc = function($value) { return $value[0]; }

Returns: array( array('bb' => array('third', 'fourth'), )

Parameters
array$arrayThe initial array to be filtered/reduced
mixed$keepItemsThe items which are allowed/kept in the array - accepts array or csv string
string$getValueFunc(optional) Callback function used to get the value to keep
Returns
array The filtered/reduced array with the kept items

◆ mergeRecursiveWithOverrule()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::mergeRecursiveWithOverrule ( array &  $original,
array  $overrule,
  $addKeys = true,
  $includeEmptyValues = true,
  $enableUnsetFeature = true 
)
static

Merges two arrays recursively and "binary safe" (integer keys are overridden as well), overruling similar values in the original array with the values of the overrule array. In case of identical keys, ie. keeping the values of the overrule array.

This method takes the original array by reference for speed optimization with large arrays

The differences to the existing PHP function array_merge_recursive() are:

  • Keys of the original array can be unset via the overrule array. ($enableUnsetFeature)
  • Much more control over what is actually merged. ($addKeys, $includeEmptyValues)
  • Elements or the original array get overwritten if the same key is present in the overrule array.
Parameters
array$originalOriginal array. It will be modified by this method and contains the result afterwards!
array$overruleOverrule array, overruling the original array
bool$addKeysIf set to FALSE, keys that are NOT found in $original will not be set. Thus only existing value can/will be overruled from overrule array.
bool$includeEmptyValuesIf set, values from $overrule will overrule if they are empty or zero.
bool$enableUnsetFeatureIf set, special values "__UNSET" can be used in the overrule array in order to unset array keys in the original array.
Returns
void

◆ renumberKeysToAvoidLeapsIfKeysAreAllNumeric()

static TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ArrayUtility::renumberKeysToAvoidLeapsIfKeysAreAllNumeric ( array  $array = [],
  $level = 0 
)
static

Renumber the keys of an array to avoid leaps if keys are all numeric.

Is called recursively for nested arrays.

Example:

Given array(0 => 'Zero' 1 => 'One', 2 => 'Two', 4 => 'Three') as input, it will return array(0 => 'Zero' 1 => 'One', 2 => 'Two', 3 => 'Three')

Will treat keys string representations of number (ie. '1') equal to the numeric value (ie. 1).

Example: Given array('0' => 'Zero', '1' => 'One' ) it will return array(0 => 'Zero', 1 => 'One')

Parameters
array$arrayInput array
int$levelInternal level used for recursion, do not set from outside!
Returns
array
