WARNING WARNING, DEPRECATED PACKAGE!

I've made a way better and optimizable version: FuelPHP/Alias. I strongly recommend using that package instead of this one.

Poser

Poser appends itself to the autoloading stack and resolves class aliasses. This all so your classes can pretend to be someone else.

Usage

<?php

use Poser\Poser;

Poser::alias(array(
	// Rename a class
	'Namespaced\Alias' => 'Namespaced\Classname',
	
	// Rename namespace
	'Other\Namespaced\Classname' => 'Real\Namespaced\Classname'
	
	// Alias to global
	'Classname' => 'Namespaced\Classname',
));

Wildcards

With a wildcard like;

Poser\Poser::alias(array(
	'NotSo\Deep\*' => 'ACLass\InA\Deep\And\Hidden\Namespace\$1',
));

Poser wil act like:

$obj = new NotSo\Deep\Model();
// ACLass\InA\Deep\And\Hidden\Namespace\Model;

You can also have multiple wildcards:

Poser\Poser::alias(array(
	'*\Dude\*\Is\*\Man' => '$1\$2\$3',
));

$obj = new Hey\Dude\What\Is\Up\Man()
// Wil stranslate to Hey\WHat\Up

Closure translations

You can also modify the translation in a closure.

Poser\Poser::alias(array(
	'*\*\Strange' => function($one, $two)
	{
		return $one.'\\'.$two.'\\Weird';
	}
));

$instance = new That\Stuffs\Strange();
// Will be a new instance of That\Stuffs\Weird

Registering the autoloader

Poser\Poser::register();

// Unregister
Poser\Poser::unregister();

Multiton usage

You can also register more Posers to the autoloader.

$poser = Poser\Poser::instance('justin_bieber');

// Alias some classes
$poser->alias(array(
	'Justin\Bieber' => 'InvalidArgumentException',
));

// Register the autoloader
$poser->register();
