Please consider using the the latest stable version for any production code.

The User Information part

The library provides a League\Uri\Components\UserInfo class to ease interacting with the user information URI part.

Instantiation

Using the default constructor

The constructor expects 2 optional arguments:

<?php

use League\Uri\Components\UserInfo;
use League\Uri\Components\User;
use League\Uri\Components\Pass;

$info = new UserInfo('foo', 'bar');
echo $info; //display 'foo:bar'

$emptyInfo = new UserInfo();
echo $emptyInfo; //display ''

$altInfo = new UserInfo(new User('foo'), new Pass('bar'));
echo $altInfo; //display 'foo:bar'

If the submitted value are not valid user and/or password string an InvalidArgumentException exception is thrown.

Using a named constructor

New in version 4.2

<?php

public static UserInfo::createFromString(string $userinfo = ''): UserInfo

Using the createFromString static method you can instantiate a new UserInfo object from a string or from any object that implements the __toString method.

<?php

use League\Uri\Components\UserInfo;

$userinfo = UserInfo::createFromString('login:password');

Using a Uri object

You can also get a UserInfo object from a Hierarchical URI object:

<?php

use League\Uri\Schemes\Ws as WsUri;

$uri = WsUri::createFromComponents(parse_url('http://john:doe@example.com:81/'));
$userInfo = $uri->userInfo; //return a League\Uri\Components\UserInfo object
echo $userInfo; // display 'john:doe'

User info representations

String representation

Basic representations is done using the following methods:

<?php

use League\Uri\Components\UserInfo;

$info = new UserInfo('foo', 'bar');
$info->getContent();     // return 'foo:bar'
$info->__toString();      //return 'foo:bar'
$info->getUriComponent(); //return 'foo:bar@'

UserInfo::getContent is new in version 4.2

Accessing User information content

To acces the user login and password information you need to call the respective UserInfo::getUser and UserInfo::getPass methods like shown below.

<?php

use League\Uri\Components\UserInfo;
use League\Uri\Schemes\Http;

$info = new UserInfo('foo', 'bar');
$info->getUser(); //return 'foo'
$info->getPass(); //return 'bar'

$uri = Http::createFromString('http://john:doe@example.com:81/');
$uri->userInfo->getUser(); //return 'john'
$uri->userInfo->getPass(); //return 'doe'

To get access to the component classes you can use PHP’s magic __get method:

<?php

use League\Uri\Components\UserInfo;
use League\Uri\Schemes\Http;

$info = new UserInfo('foo', 'bar');
$info->user; //return a League\Uri\Components\User class
$info->pass; //return a League\Uri\Components\Pass class

$uri = Http::createFromString('http://john:doe@example.com:81/');
$uri->userInfo->user->__toString(); //return 'john'
$uri->userInfo->pass->__toString(); //return 'doe'

Modifying the user information

If the modifications do not change the current object, it is returned as is, otherwise, a new modified object is returned.

Because the UserInfo class does not represent a URI component, it does not include a modify method. To modify the user login and password information you need to call the respective UserInfo::withUser and UserInfo::withPass methods like shown below.

<?php

use League\Uri\Components\UserInfo;

$info = new UserInfo('foo', 'bar');
$new_info = $info->withUser('john')->withPass('doe');
echo $new_info; //displays john:doe
echo $info;     //displays foo:bar

When a modification fails a InvalidArgumentException exception is thrown.
