Generic normalizers

This project comes with the following generic normalizers:

Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\CallableNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\ChainNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\FormatNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\IndentNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\JsonEncodeNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\SchemaNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\WithFinalNewLineNormalizer
Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\WithoutFinalNewLineNormalizer

💡 All of these normalizers implement the Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\Normalizer.

`CallableNormalizer`

When you want to normalize a JSON file with a callable, you can use the CallableNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Json;
use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "url": "https://localheinz.com"
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$callable = function (Json $json): Json {
    $decoded = $json->decoded();

    foreach (get_object_vars($decoded) as $name => $value) {
        if ('https://localheinz.com' !== $value) {
            continue;
        }

        $decoded->{$name} .= '/open-source/';
    }

    return Json::fromString(json_encode($decoded));
};

$normalizer = new Normalizer\CallableNormalizer($callable);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now have the callable applied to it.

`ChainNormalizer`

When you want to apply multiple normalizers in a chain, you can use the ChainNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Json;
use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;
use Ergebnis\Json\Printer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "url": "https://localheinz.com"
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$indent = Normalizer\Format\Indent::fromString('  ');
$jsonEncodeOptions = Normalizer\Format\JsonEncodeOptions::fromInt(JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE | JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\ChainNormalizer(
    new Normalizer\JsonEncodeNormalizer($jsonEncodeOptions),
    new Normalizer\IndentNormalizer(
        $indent,
        new Printer\Printer()
    ),
    new Normalizer\WithFinalNewLineNormalizer()
);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now contain the result of applying all normalizers in a chain, one after another.

💡 Be careful with the order of the normalizers, as one normalizer might override changes a previous normalizer applied.

`FormatNormalizer`

When you want to normalize a JSON file with a formatting, you can use the FormatNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Json;
use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;
use Ergebnis\Json\Printer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "emoji": "🤓",
    "url": "https://localheinz.com"
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$format = Normalizer\Format\Format::create(
    Normalizer\Format\Indent::fromString('  '),
    Normalizer\Format\JsonEncodeOptions::fromInt(JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE | JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES),
    Normalizer\Format\NewLine::fromString("\r\n")
    true
);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\FormatNormalizer(
    new Printer\Printer(),
    $format,
);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now have formatting applied according to $format.

`IndentNormalizer`

When you need to adjust the indentation of a JSON file, you can use the IndentNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Json;
use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;
use Ergebnis\Json\Printer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "url": "https://localheinz.com"
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$indent = Normalizer\Format\Indent::fromString('  ');

$normalizer = new Normalizer\IndentNormalizer(
    $indent,
    new Printer\Printer()
);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now be indented with 2 spaces.

`JsonEncodeNormalizer`

When you need to adjust the encoding of a JSON file, you can use the JsonEncodeNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Json;
use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas M\u00f6ller",
    "url": "https:\/\/localheinz.com"
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$jsonEncodeOptions = Normalizer\Format\JsonEncodeOptions::fromInt(JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES | JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\JsonEncodeNormalizer($jsonEncodeOptions);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now be encoded with $jsonEncodeOptions.

💡 For reference, see json_encode() and the corresponding JSON constants.

`SchemaNormalizer`

When you want to rebuild a JSON file according to a JSON schema, you can use the SchemaNormalizer.

Let's assume the following schema

{
    "type": "object",
    "additionalProperties": true,
    "properties": {
        "name" : {
            "type" : "string"
        },
        "role" : {
            "type" : "string"
        }
    }
}

exists at /schema/example.json.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;
use Ergebnis\Json\Pointer;
use Ergebnis\Json\SchemaValidator;
use JsonSchema\SchemaStorage;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "url": "https://localheinz.com",
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "open-source-projects": {
        "ergebnis/data-provider": {
            "downloads": {
                "total": 2,
                "monthly": 1
            }
        },
        "ergebnis/composer-normalize": {
            "downloads": {
                "total": 5,
                "monthly": 2
            }
        }
    }
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\SchemaNormalizer(
    'file:///schema/example.json',
    new SchemaStorage(),
    new SchemaValidator\SchemaValidator(),
    Pointer\Specification::never()
);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now be structured according to the JSON schema (in this simple case, properties will be reordered as found in the schema and additional properties will be ordered by name). Internally, the SchemaNormalizer uses justinrainbow/json-schema to resolve schemas, as well as to ensure (before and after normalization) that the JSON document is valid.

If you have properties that you do not want to be reordered, you can use a Pointer\Specification to specify which properties should not be reordered.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;
use Ergebnis\Json\Pointer;
use Ergebnis\Json\SchemaValidator;
use JsonSchema\SchemaStorage;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "url": "https://localheinz.com",
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "open-source-projects": {
        "ergebnis/data-provider": {
            "downloads": {
                "total": 2,
                "monthly": 1
            }
        },
        "ergebnis/composer-normalize": {
            "downloads": {
                "total": 5,
                "monthly": 2
            }
        }
    }
}
JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\SchemaNormalizer(
    'file:///schema/example.json',
    new SchemaStorage(),
    new SchemaValidator\SchemaValidator(),
    Pointer\Specification::equals(Pointer\JsonPointer::fromJsonString('/open-source-projects'))
);

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

`WithFinalNewLineNormalizer`

When you want to ensure that a JSON file has a single final new line, you can use the WithFinalNewLineNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "url": "https://localheinz.com"
}


JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\WithFinalNewLineNormalizer();

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now have a single final new line.

`WithoutFinalNewLineNormalizer`

When you want to ensure that a JSON file does not have a final new line, you can use the WithoutFinalNewLineNormalizer.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer;

$encoded = <<<'JSON'
{
    "name": "Andreas Möller",
    "url": "https://localheinz.com"
}


JSON;

$json = Json::fromString($encoded);

$normalizer = new Normalizer\WithoutFinalNewLineNormalizer();

$normalized = $normalizer->normalize($json);

The normalized version will now not have a final new line or any whitespace at the end.

Vendor-specific normalizers

This project comes with the following vendor-specific normalizers:

Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\JsonNormalizer

`Vendor\Composer\ComposerJsonNormalizer`

The Vendor\Composer\ComposerJsonNormalizer can be used to normalize a composer.json file according to its underlying JSON schema.

It composes the following normalizers:

Ergebnis\Composer\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\BinNormalizer
Ergebnis\Composer\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\ConfigHashNormalizer
Ergebnis\Composer\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\PackageHashNormalizer
Ergebnis\Composer\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\RepositoriesHashNormalizer
Ergebnis\Composer\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\VersionConstraintNormalizer
Ergebnis\Composer\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\WithFinalNewLineNormalizer

`Vendor\Composer\BinNormalizer`

When composer.json contains an array of scripts in the bin section, the Vendor\Composer\BinNormalizer will sort the elements of the bin section by value in ascending order.

`Vendor\Composer\ConfigHashNormalizer`

When composer.json contains configuration in the config section, the Vendor\Composer\ConfigHashNormalizer will sort the content of these sections by key in ascending order.

The allow-plugins and preferred-install configuration options support keys with wildcards and require special handling.

When these keys do not use wildcards, then these keys are sorted in ascending order. When these keys use wildcards, these keys are sorted when the wildcards are at the end of package names. Due to internal implementation details of the wildcard feature within composer, sorting keys with wildcards in the middle is not feasible.

`Vendor\Composer\PackageHashNormalizer`

When composer.json contains any configuration in the

sections, the Vendor\Composer\PackageHashNormalizer will sort the packages in these sections.

💡 This transfers the behaviour from using the --sort-packages or sort-packages configuration flag in require and require-dev to other sections.

`Vendor\Composer\RepositoriesHashNormalizer`

When composer.json contains any configuration in the

repositories

section, the Vendor\Composer\RepositoriesHashNormalizer will sort the repositories listed in the exclude and only properties of repositories.

`Vendor\Composer\VersionConstraintNormalizer`

When composer.json contains version constraints in the

sections, the Vendor\Composer\VersionConstraintNormalizer will ensure that

all version constraints are trimmed

 {
   "homepage": "https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#version-range",
   "require": {
-    "php": " ^8.2 "
+    "php": "^8.2"
 }

version constraints separated by a space ( ) or comma (,) - treated as a logical and - are separated by a space ( ) instead

 {
   "homepage": "https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#version-range",
   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "1.2.3,2.3.4",

+    "php": "^8.1 || ^8.2",
+    "foo/bar": "^1.2.3 || ^2.3.4"
 }

hyphenated version ranges separated by dash (-) and any positive number of spaces before and after are separated by a dash with a single space before and after (-)

 {
   "homepage": "https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#hyphenated-version-range-",
   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "1.2.3  -  2.3.4"

   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "^1.0 || ^1.1 || ^2.0 || ~2.1.0 || 2.4.5"
+    "foo/bar": "^1.0 || ^2.0"
 }

tilde version ranges (~) are preferred over wildcard (*) version ranges

 {
   "homepage": "https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#version-range",
   "require": {
     "foo/bar": "*",
-    "foo/baz": "1.0.*"

   "homepage": "https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#version-range",
   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "~1",
-    "foo/baz": "~1.3"
+    "foo/bar": "^1.0",
+    "foo/baz": "^1.3"
 }

version numbers are sorted in ascending order

   "homepage": "https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#version-range",
   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "^2.0 || ^1.4"

   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "2.0 as 2.0"
+    "foo/bar": "2.0"
 }

leading v prefixes in version constraints are removed

 {
   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "^v1.2",
-    "foo/baz": "v1.3.7"
+    "foo/bar": "^1.2",
+    "foo/baz": "1.3.7"
 }

use of x or X for wildcards is replaced with *

 {
   "require": {
-    "foo/bar": "1.x",
-    "foo/baz": "2.3.X",
-    "foo/qux": "x"
+    "foo/bar": "^1.0",

Credits

The algorithm for sorting packages in the Vendor\Composer\PackageHashNormalizer has been adopted from Composer\Json\JsonManipulator::sortPackages() (originally licensed under MIT by Nils Adermann and Jordi Boggiano), which I initially contributed to composer/composer with composer/composer#3549 and composer/composer#3872.
