README

Lazy is a simple PHP library that allows you to transform data from JSON arrays into PHP objects (POPOs), or copy data between two PHP classes with ease — optionally with type autocasting.

🚀 Features

Transform associative arrays (e.g., from JSON) into PHP objects
Copy data from one PHP object to another
Autocast values to match property types using docblocks
Lightweight, no external dependencies

🧱 Example: Array to Object

Suppose you have the following array:

$profileArray = [
    'name' => 'John Doe',
    'age' => '17'
];

And a plain PHP class (POPO) like this:

<?php

class Profile
{
    public string $name = '';
    public int $age = 0;
}

You can map the array to the object using Lazy:

<?php

$profile = new Profile();
$profile = Lazy::copyFromArray($profileArray, $profile);

echo $profile->name; // John Doe

🔄 Example: Object to Object

You can also copy values between two PHP objects:

<?php

class Member
{
    public string $name = '';
    public int $age = 0;
}

class Profile
{
    public string $name = '';
    public int $age = 0;
}

$member = new Member();
$member->name = 'John Doe';
$member->age = 17;

$profile = new Profile();
$profile = Lazy::transform($member, $profile);

echo $profile->name; // John Doe
