    iterator_to_array — Copy the iterator into an array

    설명

    array iterator_to_array ( Traversable $iterator [, bool $use_keys = true ] )

    Copy the elements of an iterator into an array.

    인수

    iterator

    The iterator being copied.

    use_keys

    Whether to use the iterator element keys as index.

    In PHP 5.5 and later, if a key is an array or object, a warning will be generated. NULL keys will be converted to an empty string, double keys will be truncated to their integer counterpart, resource keys will generate a warning and be converted to their resource ID, and boolean keys will be converted to integers.

    Note:

    If this parameter is not set or set to TRUE, duplicate keys will be overwritten. The last value with a given key will be in the returned array. Set this paramater to FALSE to get all the values in any case.

    반환값

    An array containing the elements of the iterator.

    변경점

    버전 설명
    5.5.0 iterator_to_array() gained support for key types other than integer and string when the use_keys parameter is enabled.
    5.2.1 The use_keys parameter was added.

    Example #1 iterator_to_array() example

    <?php
    $iterator     = new ArrayIterator(array('recipe'=>'pancakes', 'egg', 'milk', 'flour'));
    var_dump(iterator_to_array($iterator, true));
    var_dump(iterator_to_array($iterator, false));
    ?>

    One important thing to remember is that in iterator can be infinite. Not all iterators necessarily end. If iterator_to_array is used on such an iterator, it will exhaust the available memory, and throw a fatal error.

    For example, consider the following code:

    <?php

    function fibonacci(): Generator
    {
            yield $a = 1;
            yield $b = 2;

            start:
            yield $c = $a + $b;
            $a = $b;
            $b = $c;
        goto     start;
    }

    $fibonacciSequence = fibonacci();
    iterator_to_array($fibonacciSequence);

    ?>

    Since <?php fibonacci(); ?> generates an infinite fibonacci sequence, which is valid, since it is actually an infinite sequence, then attempting to convert it to an array will fail.

    Using the boolean param :

    <?php

    $first     = new ArrayIterator( array('k1' => 'a' , 'k2' => 'b',  'k3' => 'c',  'k4' => 'd') );
    $second = new ArrayIterator( array( 'k1' => 'X', 'k2' => 'Y', 'Z' ) );

    $combinedIterator= new AppendIterator();
    $combinedIterator->append( $first );
    $combinedIterator->append( $second );

    var_dump( iterator_to_array($combinedIterator, false) );

    ?>

    will output :

    array(7) (
      [0]=>
      string(1) "a"
      [1]=>
      string(1) "b"
      [2]=>
      string(1) "c"
      [3]=>
      string(1) "d"
      [4]=>
      string(1) "X"
      [5]=>
      string(1) "Y"
      [6]=>
      string(1) "Z"
    )

    <?php

    var_dump    ( iterator_to_array($combinedIterator, true) );

    ?>

    will output (since keys would merge) :

    array(5) (
      ["k1"]=>
      string(1) "X"
      ["k2"]=>
      string(1) "Y"
      ["k3"]=>
      string(1) "c"
      ["k4"]=>
      string(1) "d"
      [0]=>
      string(1) "Z"
    )

    To generate an deep array from nested iterators:

    <?php
    function iterator_to_array_deep(\Traversable $iterator, $use_keys = true) {
            $array = array();
        foreach (    $iterator as $key => $value) {
            if (    $value instanceof \Iterator) {
                    $value = iterator_to_array_deep($value, $use_keys);
            }
            if (    $use_keys) {
                    $array[$key] = $value;
            } else {
                    $array[] = $value;
            }
        }
        return     $array;
    }
    ?>

    I use it to test an iterator: https://gist.github.com/jm42/cb328106f393eeb28751

    When using iterator_to_array() on an SplObjectStorage object, it's advisable to set $use_keys to false.

    The resulting array is identical, since the iterator keys produced by SplObjectStorage::key() are always integers from 0 to (COUNT-1). Passing $use_keys=false cuts out the unnecessary calls to SplObjectStorage::key(), giving a slight performance advantage.

    The use_keys parameter was added in one of the 5.2.x releases; it defaults to TRUE. This matches the behavior in PHP 5.1.6, which lacks this parameter.

    Generator approach

    function scandir_deep($dir)
    {
      foreach (scandir($dir) as $key => $value)
        if (in_array($value, [".",".."]))
          continue;
        else if (is_dir($dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $value))
          yield $value => scandir_deep($dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $value);
        else
          yield $value;
    }
