How to use constructor promotion in PHP 8
Categorized as PHP
This is so good! The only thing that feels wrong is the empty brackets.
What is a constructor property promotion?
It is a new syntax that PHP 8 brings, allowing two simultaneous operations: Class property declaration and Constructor assignment, right from the constructor.
See how it works:
class Ugh {
public $target;
function __construct($target) {
$this->target = $target;
}
}
class Wew {
function __construct(public $target) {}
}See the official documentation.
