Looping class, for template engine kind of thing
- by tarnfeld
Hey,
I am updating my class Nesty so it's infinite but I'm having a little trouble.... Here is the class:
<?php
Class Nesty
{
// Class Variables
private $text;
private $data = array();
private $loops = 0;
private $maxLoops = 0;
public function __construct($text,$data = array(),$maxLoops = 5)
{
// Set the class vars
$this->text = $text;
$this->data = $data;
$this->maxLoops = $maxLoops;
}
// Loop funtion
private function loopThrough($data)
{
if( ($this->loops +1) > $this->maxLoops )
{
die("ERROR: Too many loops!");
}
else
{
$keys = array_keys($data);
for($x = 0; $x < count($keys); $x++)
{
if(is_array($data[$keys[$x]]))
{
$this->loopThrough($data[$keys[$x]]);
}
else
{
return $data[$keys[$x]];
}
}
}
}
// Templater method
public function template()
{
echo $this->loopThrough($this->data);
}
}
?>
Here is the code you would use to create an instance of the class:
<?php
// The nested array
$data = array(
"person" => array(
"name" => "Tom Arnfeld",
"age" => 15
),
"product" => array (
"name" => "Cakes",
"price" => array (
"single" => 59,
"double" => 99
)
),
"other" => "string"
);
// Retreive the template text
$file = "TestData.tpl";
$fp = fopen($file,"r");
$text = fread($fp,filesize($file));
// Create the Nesty object
require_once('Nesty.php');
$nesty = new Nesty($text,$data);
// Save the newly templated text to a variable $message
$message = $nesty->template();
// Print out $message on the page
echo("<pre>".$message."</pre>");
?>
Any ideas?
