This package offers an `invade` function that will allow you to read/write private properties of an object. It will also allow you to call private methods.

We invest a lot of resources into creating [best in class open source packages](https://spatie.be/open-source). You can support us by [buying one of our paid products](https://spatie.be/open-source/support-us).

We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on [our contact page](https://spatie.be/about-us). We publish all received postcards on [our virtual postcard wall](https://spatie.be/open-source/postcards).

## Installation

You can install the package via composer:

```bash
composer require spatie/invade
```

## Usage

Imagine you have this class defined which has a private property and method.

```php
class MyClass
{
    private string $privateProperty = 'private value';

    private function privateMethod(): string
    {
        return 'private return value';
    }
}

$myClass = new Myclass();
```

This is how you can get the value of the private property using the `invade` function.

```php
invade($myClass)->privateProperty; // returns 'private value'
```

The `invade` function also allows you to change private values.

```php
invade($myClass)->privateProperty = 'changed value';
invade($myClass)->privateProperty; // returns 'changed value
```

Using `invade` you can also call private functions.

```php
invade($myClass)->privateMethod(); // returns 'private return value'
```

Further, you can also get and set private static class properties and call private static methods. Imagine having this class:

```php
class MyClass
{
    private static string $privateStaticProperty = 'privateValue';

    private static function privateStaticMethod(string $string, int $int): string
    {
        return 'private return value ' . $string . ' ' . $int;
    }
}
```

Here is how you get and set private class properties:

```php
invade(MyClass::class)->get('privateStaticProperty'); // returns 'private value'

invade(MyClass::class)->set('privateStaticProperty', 'changedValue');

invade(MyClass::class)->get('privateStaticProperty'); // returns 'changedValue'
```

And this is how you call private static methods:

```php
invade(MyClass::class)
    ->method('privateStaticMethod')
    ->call('foo', 123);

// returns 'private return value foo 123'
```

## Testing

```bash
composer test
```
