Helper functions I find super-duper handy

awesome-helpers's Issues

Add support to dump_sql for insert, update, delete queries.

It would be great to add support for insert, update, delete queries to dump_sql it works really fine for select statements.

ej.

dump_sql(DB::table('customers')->insert(['name' => 'Caleb']));

thanks!

Check if functions exist

I want to use this but I get errors where they conflict with my own implementations:

Cannot redeclare connection() (previously declared in ...vendor/calebporzio/awesome-helpers/src/helpers/connection.php:3)

As per the usual convention:

https://github.com/laravel/helpers/blob/1c3c128fa96bad2bc338eab1823fe7372e0c5328/src/helpers.php#L6

<?php
+if (! function_exists('array_add')) {
    /**
     * Add an element to an array using "dot" notation if it doesn't exist.
     *
     * @param  array  $array
     * @param  string  $key
     * @param  mixed  $value
     * @return array
     */
    function array_add($array, $key, $value)
    {
        return Arr::add($array, $key, $value);
    }
+}

I'm happy to open a PR if you'll consider it.

Backward count() compatibility after PHP 7.2

PHP 7.2 may break some projects after the change of count() function, throwing warning (futuraly will be an error). When receiving parameters that aren't array or countable objects.

I have created a helper to treat this problem, not a good practice, but for upgrading large projects it can be used temporarily.

Do you guys consider this helper a good addition for awesome-helpers?

array_combine(): Both parameters should have an equal number of elements

When I run tinker(['id', 'title', 'description', 'completed_at', 'category']);, it gives me;

Left and Right Functions - Not an issue - Potential Addition

I missed having the "left" function of c#, and the right function has been super helpful for things.
On the "right" function, I have allowed a user to pass in a positive or negative value. If they pass a positive, then I multiply it by negative 1 to get the correct format.

function left($original, $characters)
{
    if (!$original || !$characters) {
        return null;
    }
    return substr($original, 0, $characters);
}

function right($original, $characters)
{
    if (!$original || !$characters) {
        return null;
    }
    if ($characters > 0) {
        $characters *= -1;
    }
    return substr($original, $characters);
}

Rename money() function?

Some of the other popular money packages has a money helper function as well. Might want to rename the money() function here.

Examples:
https://github.com/akaunting/money
https://github.com/cknow/laravel-money

Uses Psy shell

Psy shell is used but psy/psysh is not required.

What about macros for collections?

Hey,

Are the PR about Collection macros acceptable?

money() displays ¤ instead of $.

I tried money(35.55) => This showed me ¤35.88.

Why this issue?

Uses auth()

awesome-helpers uses auth() which resides in laravel/framework but that packages is not required

Please advise.
