This is important when considering how other Generators work such as JavaScript's an Python's. While PHP's generator has the ->valid() method they don't, or an equivalent. JS uses Iterator protocol which says next() should return an object of
{
done: bool,
value: mixed
}
In which case you can use keys->done to see if the generator can still be iterated.
Generator::key
(PHP 5 >= 5.5.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)
Generator::key — Get the yielded key
Parameters
This function has no parameters.
Return Values
Returns the yielded key.
Examples
Example #1 Generator::key() example
<?php
function Gen()
{
yield 'key' => 'value';
}
$gen = Gen();
echo "{$gen->key()} => {$gen->current()}";The above example will output:
key => value
