PHP wishlist: The pipe operator
Well, the pipe operator |> is mine. I’d like to expand on why I think the pipe operator would be a valuable addition to the language from a PHP developer’s perspective.
// This is the same as `sum(1, 2)` 1 |> sum(2); Adding the pipe operator to PHP isn’t a new idea.
) ->take(5) ->toArray(); With the pipe operator, User:all() could return an array and work with a set of array functions.
DateTime::now() |> isFuture(); With the pipe operator, we get the ergonomics of boxed objects, without the overhead of wrapping & unwrapping them.
