I have the following code,
<?php
class Templater
{
static $params = array();
public static function assign($name, $value)
{
self::$params[] = array($name => $value);
}
public static function draw()
{
self::$params;
}
}
$test = Templater::assign('key', 'value');
$test = Templater::draw();
print_r($test);
How can I alter this script so I could use this?
$test = Templater::assign('key', 'value')->assign('key2', 'value2')->draw();
print_r($test);
You cannot use Method Chaining with static methods because you cannot return a class level scope (return self
won't do). Change your methods to regular methods and return $this
in each method you want to allow chaining from.
Notice that you should not use T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM
to access instance methods as it will raise an E_STRICT
Notice. Use T_OBJECT_OPERATOR
for calling instance methods.
