InflectorTrait

Provides functionality to initialize and store a Symfony String Inflector.

The inflector is used to convert words between singular and plural forms. This trait offers a flexible initialization mechanism allowing:

  • Direct assignment of an InflectorInterface instance
  • Resolution from a PSR-11 container via a service ID
  • Automatic fallback to EnglishInflector if none is provided

Intended for classes that need consistent singular/plural transformations with support for dependency injection and configuration.

Methods

initializeInflector()

Initializes the string inflector to be used by this instance.

protected initializeInflector([array<string, mixed> $init = [] ][, ContainerInterface|null $container = null ][, InflectorInterface|null $defaultInflector = null ]) : static

This method determines which InflectorInterface implementation should be applied:

  • If $init[static::INFLECTOR] is a non-empty string corresponding to a service name available in the DI container, that service will be fetched and used as the inflector.
  • If $init[static::INFLECTOR] is already an InflectorInterface instance, it is used directly.
  • Otherwise, the provided $defaultInflector is used; if not given, a new EnglishInflector is created.
Parameters
$init : array<string, mixed> = []

Optional initialization parameters. May contain the key static::INFLECTOR with:

  • A service ID (string) resolvable via $container
  • Or an InflectorInterface instance.
$container : ContainerInterface|null = null

Optional PSR-11 container for resolving a service name into an InflectorInterface.

$defaultInflector : InflectorInterface|null = null

Fallback inflector to use if no specific instance is found or provided.

Tags
