    The ArrayIterator class

    (PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

    Вступ

    Allows the removal of elements, and the modification of keys or values while iterating over Arrays or Objects.

    When you want to iterate over the same array multiple times you need to instantiate ArrayObject and let it create ArrayIterator instances that refer to it either by using foreach or by calling its getIterator() method manually.

    ArrayIterator Flags

    ArrayIterator::STD_PROP_LIST

    Properties of the object have their normal functionality when accessed as list (var_dump, foreach, etc.).

    ArrayIterator::ARRAY_AS_PROPS

    Entries can be accessed as properties (read and write).

    Another fine Iterator from php . You can use it especially when you have to iterate over objects

    <?php
    $fruits     = array(
    "apple" => "yummy",
    "orange" => "ah ya, nice",
    "grape" => "wow, I love it!",
    "plum" => "nah, not me"
    );
    $obj = new ArrayObject( $fruits );
    $it = $obj->getIterator();

    // How many items are we iterating over?

    echo "Iterating over: " . $obj->count() . " values\n";

    // Iterate over the values in the ArrayObject:
    while( $it->valid() )
    {
    echo     $it->key() . "=" . $it->current() . "\n";
    $it->next();
    }

    // The good thing here is that it can be iterated with foreach loop

    foreach ($it as $key=>$val)
    echo     $key.":".$val."\n";

    /* Outputs something like */

    Iterating over: 4 values
    apple    =yummy
    orange    =ah ya, nice
    grape    =wow, I love it!
    plum=nah, not me

    ?>

    Regards.

    Need a callback on an iterated value, but don't have PHP 5.4+? This makes is stupid easy:

    <?php
    class ArrayCallbackIterator extends ArrayIterator {
    private     $callback;
    public function     __construct($value, $callback) {
    parent::__construct($value);
    $this->callback = $callback;
    }

    public function     current() {
    $value = parent::current();
    return     call_user_func($this->callback, $value);
    }
    }
    ?>

    You can use it pretty much exactly as the Array Iterator:

    <?php
    $iterator1     = new ArrayCallbackIterator($valueList, "callback_function");
    $iterator2 = new ArrayCallbackIterator($valueList, array($object, "callback_class_method"));
    ?>

    and to iterate recursively use the (sparsely documented) RecursiveArrayIterator

    <?php

    $fruits     = array(
    "apple" => "yummy",
    "orange" => "ah ya, nice",
    "grape" => "wow, I love it!",
    "plum" => "nah, not me"
    );

    $veg = array("potato" => "chips", "carrot" => "soup");
    $grocery = array($fruits, $veg);
    $obj = new ArrayObject( $grocery );

    $it = new RecursiveIteratorIterator( new RecursiveArrayIterator($grocery));

    foreach (    $it as $key=>$val)
    echo     $key.":".$val."\n";

    ?>

    Output
    --------
    apple:yummy
    orange:ah ya, nice
    grape:wow, I love it!
    plum:nah, not me
    potato:chips
    carrot:soup

    The documentation states "This iterator allows to unset and modify values and keys while iterating over Arrays and Objects". But if you pass an array to the constructor, the iterator works with a copy of that array, so the modifications will not be written back to that initial array. ArrayObject behaves the same way.

    If you want an iterator that writes back to the array, you can use this function:

    <?php
    function &getArrayIterator(array &$a): Iterator {
    foreach (    $a as $k => &$v) {
    yield     $k => $v;
    }
    }
    ?>

    Usage:

    <?php
    $array     = [1 => 'a', 2 => 'b'];

    $iterator = getArrayIterator($array);
    foreach (    $iterator as &$value) {
    $value .= 'x';
    }

    //array(2) {
    // [1]=>
    // string(2) "ax"
    // [2]=>
    // &string(2) "bx"
    //}
    //object(Generator)#4 (0) {
    //}
    var_dump($array);
    var_dump($iterator);

    ?>

    Comparison with plain array, ArrayIterator and ArrayObject:

    <?php
    $array1     = [1 => 'a', 2 => 'b'];
    $array2 = [1 => 'a', 2 => 'b'];
    $array3 = [1 => 'a', 2 => 'b'];

    foreach (    $array1 as &$value) {
    $value .= 'x';
    }

    $iterator2 = new ArrayIterator($array2);
    foreach (    $iterator2 as &$value) {
    $value .= 'x';
    }

    $iterator3 = new ArrayObject($array3);
    foreach (    $iterator3 as &$value) {
    $value .= 'x';
    }

    //array(2) {
    // [1]=>
    // string(2) "ax"
    // [2]=>
    // string(2) "bx"
    //}
    var_dump($array1);

    //array(2) {
    // [1]=>
    // string(1) "a"
    // [2]=>
    // string(1) "b"
    //}
    //object(ArrayIterator)#1 (1) {
    // ["storage":"ArrayIterator":private]=>
    // array(2) {
    // [1]=>
    // string(2) "ax"
    // [2]=>
    // string(2) "bx"
    // }
    //}
    var_dump($array2);
    var_dump($iterator2);

    //array(2) {
    // [1]=>
    // string(1) "a"
    // [2]=>
    // string(1) "b"
    //}
    //object(ArrayObject)#2 (1) {
    // ["storage":"ArrayObject":private]=>
    // array(2) {
    // [1]=>
    // string(2) "ax"
    // [2]=>
    // string(2) "bx"
    // }
    //}
    var_dump($array3);
    var_dump($iterator3);
    ?>
