Traits

O PHP implementa uma maneira de reúso de código chamada Traits.

Traits (Traços, Carecterísticas) são um mecanismo para reúso de código em linguagens de herança simples como o PHP. A intenção de uma Trait é reduzir algumas limitações de herança simples permitindo que um desenvolvedor reutilize livremente conjuntos de métodos em várias classes independentes habitando em diferentes hierarquias de classe. A semântica da combinação de Traits e classes é definida de uma maneira que reduz a complexidade, e evita os problemas típicos associados com herança múltipla e Mixins.

Uma Trait é similar a uma classe, mas destina-se apenas a agrupar funcionalidade de uma forma refinada e consistente. Não é possível instanciar uma Trait por si só. Ela é uma adição à herança tradicional e permite composição e comportamento horizontais; isto é, a aplicação de membros de classe sem exigir herança.

Exemplo #1 Exemplo de Trait

<?php
trait ezcReflectionReturnInfo {
function
getReturnType() { /*1*/ }
function
getReturnDescription() { /*2*/ }
}

class
ezcReflectionMethod extends ReflectionMethod {
use
ezcReflectionReturnInfo;
/* ... */
}

class
ezcReflectionFunction extends ReflectionFunction {
use
ezcReflectionReturnInfo;
/* ... */
}
?>

Precedência

Um membro herdado de uma classe base é substituído por um membro inserido por uma Trait. Na ordem de precedência, os membros da classe atual substituem os métodos da Trait, que por sua vez substituem os métodos herdados.

Exemplo #2 Exemplo de Ordem de Precedência

Um membro herdado de uma classe base é substituído pelo método inserido em MyHelloWorld da Trait SayWorld. O comportamento é o mesmo para métodos definidos na classe MyHelloWorld. Na ordem de precedência, os métodos da classe atual sobrescrevem os métodos da Trait, que por sua vez substituem os métodos da classe base.

<?php
class Base {
public function
sayHello() {
echo
'Hello ';
}
}

trait
SayWorld {
public function
sayHello() {
parent::sayHello();
echo
'World!';
}
}

class
MyHelloWorld extends Base {
use
SayWorld;
}

$o = new MyHelloWorld();
$o->sayHello();
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá:

Hello World!

Exemplo #3 Exemplo de Ordem de Precedência Alternativa

<?php
trait HelloWorld {
public function
sayHello() {
echo
'Hello World!';
}
}

class
TheWorldIsNotEnough {
use
HelloWorld;
public function
sayHello() {
echo
'Hello Universe!';
}
}

$o = new TheWorldIsNotEnough();
$o->sayHello();
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá:

Hello Universe!

Traits Múltiplas

Traits múltiplas podem ser inseridas em uma classe, listando-as na declaração use, separadas por vírgulas.

Exemplo #4 Uso de Traits Múltiplas

<?php
trait Hello {
public function
sayHello() {
echo
'Hello ';
}
}

trait
World {
public function
sayWorld() {
echo
'World';
}
}

class
MyHelloWorld {
use
Hello, World;
public function
sayExclamationMark() {
echo
'!';
}
}

$o = new MyHelloWorld();
$o->sayHello();
$o->sayWorld();
$o->sayExclamationMark();
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá:

Hello World!

Resolução de Conflitos

Se duas Trais inserem dois métodos com o mesmo nome, um erro fatal é gerado, se o conflito não for explicitamente resolvido.

Para resolver conflitos de nomes entre Traits usados na mesma classe, o operador insteadof deve ser usado para escolher exatamente um dos métodos conflitantes.

Como isto permite apenas excluir métodos, o operador as pode ser usado para adicionar um apelido a um dos métodos. Note que o operador as não renomeia o método e também não afeta nenhum outro método.

Exemplo #5 Exemplo de Resolução de Conflito

Neste exemplo, Talker usa as Traits A e B. Como A e B possuem métodos conflitantes, a classe define a variante de smallTalk da Trait B, e a variante bigTalk da Trait A.

A classe Aliased_Talker usa o operador as para perrmitir o uso da implementação bigTalk da Trait B sob um apelido adicional talk.

<?php
trait A {
public function
smallTalk() {
echo
'a';
}
public function
bigTalk() {
echo
'A';
}
}

trait
B {
public function
smallTalk() {
echo
'b';
}
public function
bigTalk() {
echo
'B';
}
}

class
Talker {
use
A, B {
B::smallTalk insteadof A;
A::bigTalk insteadof B;
}
}

class
Aliased_Talker {
use
A, B {
B::smallTalk insteadof A;
A::bigTalk insteadof B;
B::bigTalk as talk;
}
}
?>

Mudando a Visibilidade de Método

Ao utilizar a sintaxe as, pode-se também ajustar a visibilidade de métodos na classe.

Exemplo #6 Exemplo de Mudança de Visibilidade de Método

<?php
trait HelloWorld {
public function
sayHello() {
echo
'Hello World!';
}
}

// Modifica a visibilidade de sayHello
class MyClass1 {
use
HelloWorld { sayHello as protected; }
}

// Apelido de método com visibilidade modificada
// Visibilidade de sayHello não é modificada
class MyClass2 {
use
HelloWorld { sayHello as private myPrivateHello; }
}
?>

Traits Compostas de Traits

Assim como as classes podem usar Trais, outros Traits tamém podem. Ao utilizar uma ou mais Traits em uma definição de Trait, ela pode ser comporta parcialmente ou integralmente dos membros definidos nessas outras Traits.

Exemplo #7 Exemplo de Traits Compostas de Traits

<?php
trait Hello {
public function
sayHello() {
echo
'Hello ';
}
}

trait
World {
public function
sayWorld() {
echo
'World!';
}
}

trait
HelloWorld {
use
Hello, World;
}

class
MyHelloWorld {
use
HelloWorld;
}

$o = new MyHelloWorld();
$o->sayHello();
$o->sayWorld();
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá:

Hello World!

Membros abstratos de Traits

Traits suportam o uso de métodos abstratos para impor requisitos sobre uma classe expositora. Métodos públicos, protegidos e privados são suportados. Antes do PHP 8.0.0, apenas métodos abstratos públicos e protegidos eram suportados.

Cuidado

A partir do PHP 8.0.0, a assinatura de um método concreto deverá seguir as regras de compatibilidade de assinaturas. Anteriormente, sua assinatura poderia ser diferente.

Exemplo #8 Requisitos Expressos por Métodos Abstratos

<?php
trait Hello {
public function
sayHelloWorld() {
echo
'Hello'.$this->getWorld();
}
abstract public function
getWorld();
}

class
MyHelloWorld {
private
$world;
use
Hello;
public function
getWorld() {
return
$this->world;
}
public function
setWorld($val) {
$this->world = $val;
}
}
?>

Membros Estáticos de Traits

Traits podem definir variáveis estáticas, métodos estáticos e propriedades estáticas.

Nota:

A partir do PHP 8.1.0, chamar um método estático, ou acessar uma propriedade estática diretamente em uma Trait foi descontinuado. Métodos estáticos e propriedades somente devem ser acessados em uma classe utilizando a Trait.

Exemplo #9 Variáveis Estáticas

<?php
trait Counter {
public function
inc() {
static
$c = 0;
$c = $c + 1;
echo
"$c\n";
}
}

class
C1 {
use
Counter;
}

class
C2 {
use
Counter;
}

$o = new C1(); $o->inc(); // echo 1
$p = new C2(); $p->inc(); // echo 1
?>

Exemplo #10 Métodos Estáticos

<?php
trait StaticExample {
public static function
doSomething() {
return
'Doing something';
}
}

class
Example {
use
StaticExample;
}

Example::doSomething();
?>

Exemplo #11 Propriedades Estáticas

<?php
trait StaticExample {
public static
$static = 'foo';
}

class
Example {
use
StaticExample;
}

echo
Example::$static;
?>

Propriedades

Traits podem também definir propriedades.

Exemplo #12 Definindo Propriedades

<?php
trait PropertiesTrait {
public
$x = 1;
}

class
PropertiesExample {
use
PropertiesTrait;
}

$example = new PropertiesExample;
$example->x;
?>

Se uma Trait define uma propriedade, uma classe não pode definir uma propriedade com o mesmo nome a menos que seja compatível (mesma visibilidade, tipo, modificador de somente-leitura e valor inicial), caso contrário um erro fatal é emitido.

Exemplo #13 Resolução de Conflito

<?php
trait PropertiesTrait {
public
$same = true;
public
$different1 = false;
public
bool $different2;
public
bool $different3;
}

class
PropertiesExample {
use
PropertiesTrait;
public
$same = true;
public
$different1 = true; // Fatal error
public string $different2; // Fatal error
readonly protected bool $different3; // Fatal error
}
?>

Constantes

Traits podem, a partir do PHP 8.2.0, também definir constantes.

Exemplo #14 Definindo Constantes

<?php
trait ConstantsTrait {
public const
FLAG_MUTABLE = 1;
final public const
FLAG_IMMUTABLE = 5;
}

class
ConstantsExample {
use
ConstantsTrait;
}

$example = new ConstantsExample;
echo
$example::FLAG_MUTABLE; // 1
?>

Se uma Trait define uma constante, uma classe não pode definir uma constante com o mesmo nome a não ser que seja compatível (mesma visibilidade, valor inicial, e finalidade), caso contrário um erro fatal é emitido.

Exemplo #15 Resolução de Conflito

<?php
trait ConstantsTrait {
public const
FLAG_MUTABLE = 1;
final public const
FLAG_IMMUTABLE = 5;
}

class
ConstantsExample {
use
ConstantsTrait;
public const
FLAG_IMMUTABLE = 5; // Fatal error
}
?>

Unlike inheritance; if a trait has static properties, each class using that trait has independent instances of those properties.

Example using parent class:
<?php
class TestClass {
    public static
$_bar;
}
class
Foo1 extends TestClass { }
class
Foo2 extends TestClass { }
Foo1::$_bar = 'Hello';
Foo2::$_bar = 'World';
echo
Foo1::$_bar . ' ' . Foo2::$_bar; // Prints: World World
?>

Example using trait:
<?php
trait TestTrait {
    public static
$_bar;
}
class
Foo1 {
    use
TestTrait;
}
class
Foo2 {
    use
TestTrait;
}
Foo1::$_bar = 'Hello';
Foo2::$_bar = 'World';
echo
Foo1::$_bar . ' ' . Foo2::$_bar; // Prints: Hello World

The best way to understand what traits are and how to use them is to look at them for what they essentially are:  language assisted copy and paste.

If you can copy and paste the code from one class to another (and we've all done this, even though we try not to because its code duplication) then you have a candidate for a trait.

Note that the "use" operator for traits (inside a class) and the "use" operator for namespaces (outside the class) resolve names differently. "use" for namespaces always sees its arguments as absolute (starting at the global namespace):

<?php
namespace Foo\Bar;
use
Foo\Test// means \Foo\Test - the initial \ is optional
?>

On the other hand, "use" for traits respects the current namespace:

<?php
namespace Foo\Bar;
class
SomeClass {
    use
Foo\Test;   // means \Foo\Bar\Foo\Test
}
?>

Together with "use" for closures, there are now three different "use" operators. They all mean different things and behave differently.

I have not seen this specific use case:

"Wanting to preserve action of parent class method, the trait one calling ::parent & also the child class mehod action".

// Child class.
use SuperTrait {
  initialize as initializeOr;
}
public function initialize(array &$element) {
  ...
  $this->initializeOr($element);
}
// Trait.
public function initialize(array &$element) {
  ...
  parent::initialize($element);
}
// Parent class.
public function initialize(array &$element) {
  ...
}

Another difference with traits vs inheritance is that methods defined in traits can access methods and properties of the class they're used in, including private ones.

For example:
<?php
trait MyTrait
{
  protected function
accessVar()
  {
    return
$this->var;
  }

}

class
TraitUser
{
  use
MyTrait;

  private
$var = 'var';

  public function
getVar()
  {
    return
$this->accessVar();
  }
}

$t = new TraitUser();
echo
$t->getVar(); // -> 'var'

It may be worth noting here that the magic constant __CLASS__ becomes even more magical - __CLASS__ will return the name of the class in which the trait is being used.

for example

<?php
trait sayWhere {
    public function
whereAmI() {
        echo
__CLASS__;
    }
}

class
Hello {
    use
sayWHere;
}

class
World {
    use
sayWHere;
}

$a = new Hello;
$a->whereAmI(); //Hello

$b = new World;
$b->whereAmI(); //World
?>

The magic constant __TRAIT__ will giev you the name of the trait

Keep in mind; "final" keyword is useless in traits when directly using them, unlike extending classes / abstract classes.

<?php
trait Foo {
    final public function
hello($s) { print "$s, hello!"; }
}
class
Bar {
    use
Foo;
   
// Overwrite, no error
   
final public function hello($s) { print "hello, $s!"; }
}

abstract class
Foo {
    final public function
hello($s) { print "$s, hello!"; }
}
class
Bar extends Foo {
   
// Fatal error: Cannot override final method Foo::hello() in ..
   
final public function hello($s) { print "hello, $s!"; }
}
?>

But this way will finalize trait methods as expected;

<?php
trait FooTrait {
    final public function
hello($s) { print "$s, hello!"; }
}
abstract class
Foo {
    use
FooTrait;
}
class
Bar extends Foo {
   
// Fatal error: Cannot override final method Foo::hello() in ..
   
final public function hello($s) { print "hello, $s!"; }
}
?>

About the (Safak Ozpinar / safakozpinar at gmail)'s great note, you can still have the same behavior than inheritance using trait with this approach :
<?php

trait TestTrait {
    public static
$_bar;
}

class
FooBar {
    use
TestTrait;
}

class
Foo1 extends FooBar {

}
class
Foo2 extends FooBar {

}
Foo1::$_bar = 'Hello';
Foo2::$_bar = 'World';
echo
Foo1::$_bar . ' ' . Foo2::$_bar; // Prints: World World

A number of the notes make incorrect assertions about trait behaviour because they do not extend the class.

So, while "Unlike inheritance; if a trait has static properties, each class using that trait has independent instances of those properties.

Example using parent class:
<?php
class TestClass {
    public static
$_bar;
}
class
Foo1 extends TestClass { }
class
Foo2 extends TestClass { }
Foo1::$_bar = 'Hello';
Foo2::$_bar = 'World';
echo
Foo1::$_bar . ' ' . Foo2::$_bar; // Prints: World World
?>

Example using trait:
<?php
trait TestTrait {
    public static
$_bar;
}
class
Foo1 {
    use
TestTrait;
}
class
Foo2 {
    use
TestTrait;
}
Foo1::$_bar = 'Hello';
Foo2::$_bar = 'World';
echo
Foo1::$_bar . ' ' . Foo2::$_bar; // Prints: Hello World
?>"

shows a correct example, simply adding
<?php
require_once('above');
class
Foo3 extends Foo2 {
}
Foo3::$_bar = 'news';
echo
Foo1::$_bar . ' ' . Foo2::$_bar . ' ' . Foo3::$_bar;

// Prints: Hello news news

I think the best conceptual model of an incorporated trait is an advanced insertion of text, or as someone put it "language assisted copy and paste." If Foo1 and Foo2 were defined with $_bar, you would not expect them to share the instance. Similarly, you would expect Foo3 to share with Foo2, and it does.

Viewing this way explains away a lot of  the 'quirks' that are observed above with final, or subsequently declared private vars,

Here is an example how to work with visiblity and conflicts.

<?php

trait A
{
    private function
smallTalk()
    {
        echo
'a';
    }

    private function
bigTalk()
    {
        echo
'A';
    }
}

trait
B
{
    private function
smallTalk()
    {
        echo
'b';
    }

    private function
bigTalk()
    {
        echo
'B';
    }
}

trait
C
{
    public function
smallTalk()
    {
        echo
'c';
    }

    public function
bigTalk()
    {
        echo
'C';
    }
}

class
Talker
{
    use
A, B, C {
       
//visibility for methods that will be involved in conflict resolution
       
B::smallTalk as public;
       
A::bigTalk as public;

       
//conflict resolution
       
B::smallTalk insteadof A, C;
       
A::bigTalk insteadof B, C;

       
//aliases with visibility change
       
B::bigTalk as public Btalk;
       
A::smallTalk as public asmalltalk;
       
       
//aliases only, methods already defined as public
       
C::bigTalk as Ctalk;
       
C::smallTalk as cmallstalk;
    }

}

(new
Talker)->bigTalk();//A

Note that you can omit a method's inclusion by excluding it from one trait in favor of the other and doing the exact same thing in the reverse way.

<?php

trait A {
    public function
sayHello()
    {
        echo
'Hello from A';
    }

    public function
sayWorld()
    {
        echo
'World from A';
    }
}

trait
B {
    public function
sayHello()
    {
        echo
'Hello from B';
    }

    public function
sayWorld()
    {
        echo
'World from B';
    }
}

class
Talker {
    use
A, B {
       
A::sayHello insteadof B;
       
A::sayWorld insteadof B;
       
B::sayWorld insteadof A;
    }
}

$talker = new Talker();
$talker->sayHello();
$talker->sayWorld();

?>

The method sayHello is imported, but the method sayWorld is simply excluded.

As already noted, static properties and methods in trait could be accessed directly using trait. Since trait is language assisted c/p, you should be aware that static property from trait will be initialized to the value trait property had in the time of class declaration.

Example:

<?php

trait Beer {
    protected static
$type = 'Light';
    public static function
printed(){
        echo static::
$type.PHP_EOL;
    }
    public static function
setType($type){
        static::
$type = $type;
    }
}

class
Ale {
    use
Beer;
}

Beer::setType("Dark");

class
Lager {
    use
Beer;
}

Beer::setType("Amber");

header("Content-type: text/plain");

Beer::printed();  // Prints: Amber
Ale::printed();   // Prints: Light
Lager::printed(); // Prints: Dark

The difference between Traits and multiple inheritance is in the inheritance part.   A trait is not inherited from, but rather included or mixed-in, thus becoming part of "this class".   Traits also provide a more controlled means of resolving conflicts that inevitably arise when using multiple inheritance in the few languages that support them (C++).  Most modern languages are going the approach of a "traits" or "mixin" style system as opposed to multiple-inheritance, largely due to the ability to control ambiguities if a method is declared in multiple "mixed-in" classes.

Also, one can not "inherit" static member functions in multiple-inheritance.

(It's already been said, but for the sake of searching on the word "relative"...)

The "use" keyword to import a trait into a class will resolve relative to the current namespace and therefore should include a leading slash to represent a full path, whereas "use" at the namespace level is always absolute.

If you override a method which was defined by a trait, calling the parent method will also call the trait's override. Therefore if you need to derive from a class which has a trait, you can extend the class without losing the trait's functionality:

<?php

trait ExampleTrait
{
    public function
output()
    {
       
parent::output();
        echo
"bar<br>";
    }
}

class
Foo
{
    public function
output()
    {
        echo
"foo<br>";
    }
}

class
FooBar extends Foo
{
    use
ExampleTrait;
}

class
FooBarBaz extends FooBar
{
    use
ExampleTrait;
    public function
output()
    {
       
parent::output();
        echo
"baz";
    }
}

(new
FooBarBaz())->output();
?>

Output:
foo
bar
baz

Traits are useful for strategies, when you want the same data to be handled (filtered, sorted, etc) differently.

For example, you have a list of products that you want to filter out based on some criteria (brands, specs, whatever), or sorted by different means (price, label, whatever). You can create a sorting trait that contains different functions for different sorting types (numeric, string, date, etc). You can then use this trait not only in your product class (as given in the example), but also in other classes that need similar strategies (to apply a numeric sort to some data, etc).

<?php
trait SortStrategy {
    private
$sort_field = null;
    private function
string_asc($item1, $item2) {
        return
strnatcmp($item1[$this->sort_field], $item2[$this->sort_field]);
    }
    private function
string_desc($item1, $item2) {
        return
strnatcmp($item2[$this->sort_field], $item1[$this->sort_field]);
    }
    private function
num_asc($item1, $item2) {
        if (
$item1[$this->sort_field] == $item2[$this->sort_field]) return 0;
        return (
$item1[$this->sort_field] < $item2[$this->sort_field] ? -1 : 1 );
    }
    private function
num_desc($item1, $item2) {
        if (
$item1[$this->sort_field] == $item2[$this->sort_field]) return 0;
        return (
$item1[$this->sort_field] > $item2[$this->sort_field] ? -1 : 1 );
    }
    private function
date_asc($item1, $item2) {
       
$date1 = intval(str_replace('-', '', $item1[$this->sort_field]));
       
$date2 = intval(str_replace('-', '', $item2[$this->sort_field]));
        if (
$date1 == $date2) return 0;
        return (
$date1 < $date2 ? -1 : 1 );
    }
    private function
date_desc($item1, $item2) {
       
$date1 = intval(str_replace('-', '', $item1[$this->sort_field]));
       
$date2 = intval(str_replace('-', '', $item2[$this->sort_field]));
        if (
$date1 == $date2) return 0;
        return (
$date1 > $date2 ? -1 : 1 );
    }
}

class
Product {
    public
$data = array();

1. no deprecate if same-class-named method get from trait
2. replace same-named method ba to aa in C

trait ATrait {
    public function a(){
        return 'Aa';
    }
}

trait BTrait {
    public function a(){
        return 'Ba';
    }
}

    }
}

If you want to resolve name conflicts and also change the visibility of a trait method, you'll need to declare both in the same line:

trait testTrait{
   
    public function test(){
        echo 'trait test';
    }
   
}

class myClass{
   
    use testTrait {
        testTrait::test as private testTraitF;
    }
   
    public function test(){
        echo 'class test';
        echo '<br/>';
        $this->testTraitF();
    }
   
}

$obj = new myClass();
$obj->test(); //prints both 'trait test' and 'class test'
$obj->testTraitF(); //The method is not accessible (Fatal error: Call to private method myClass::testTraitF() )

Adding to "atorich at gmail dot com":

The behavior of the magic constant __CLASS__ when used in traits is as expected if you understand traits and late static binding (http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.late-static-bindings.php).

<?php

$format
= 'Class: %-13s | get_class(): %-13s | get_called_class(): %-13s%s';

trait
TestTrait {
    public function
testMethod() {
        global
$format;
       
printf($format, __CLASS__, get_class(), get_called_class(), PHP_EOL);
    }
   
    public static function
testStatic() {
        global
$format;
       
printf($format, __CLASS__, get_class(), get_called_class(), PHP_EOL);
    }
}

trait
DuplicateTrait {
    public function
duplMethod() {
        global
$format;
       
printf($format, __CLASS__, get_class(), get_called_class(), PHP_EOL);
    }
   
    public static function
duplStatic() {
        global
$format;
       
printf($format, __CLASS__, get_class(), get_called_class(), PHP_EOL);
    }
}

abstract class
AbstractClass {
   
    use
DuplicateTrait;
   
    public function
absMethod() {
        global
$format;
       
printf($format, __CLASS__, get_class(), get_called_class(), PHP_EOL);
    }
   
    public static function
absStatic() {
        global
$format;
       
printf($format, __CLASS__, get_class(), get_called_class(), PHP_EOL);
    }
}

class
BaseClass extends AbstractClass {
    use
TestTrait;
}

class
TestClass extends BaseClass { }

$t = new TestClass();

$t->testMethod();
TestClass::testStatic();

$t->absMethod();
TestClass::absStatic();

$t->duplMethod();
TestClass::duplStatic();

?>

Will output:

Class: BaseClass     | get_class(): BaseClass     | get_called_class(): TestClass   
Class: BaseClass     | get_class(): BaseClass     | get_called_class(): TestClass   
Class: AbstractClass | get_class(): AbstractClass | get_called_class(): TestClass   
Class: AbstractClass | get_class(): AbstractClass | get_called_class(): TestClass   
Class: AbstractClass | get_class(): AbstractClass | get_called_class(): TestClass   
Class: AbstractClass | get_class(): AbstractClass | get_called_class(): TestClass

Since Traits are considered literal "copying/pasting" of code, it's clear how the methods defined in DuplicateTrait give the same results as the methods defined in AbstractClass.

A note to 'Beispiel #9 Statische Variablen'. A trait can also have a static property:

trait Counter {
    static $trvar=1;

    public static function stfunc() {
        echo "Hello world!"
    }
}

class C1 {
    use Counter;
}

print "\nTRVAR: " . C1::$trvar . "\n";   //prints 1

$obj = new C1();
C1::stfunc();   //prints  Hello world!
$obj->stfunc();   //prints Hello world!

A static property (trvar) can only be accessed using the classname (C1).
But a static function (stfunc) can be accessed using the classname or the instance ($obj).

I think it's obvious to notice that using 'use' followed by the traits name must be seen as just copying/pasting lines of code into the place where they are used.
