PHP 7.0.6 Released

The DOMImplementation class

(PHP 5, PHP 7)

Introduction

The DOMImplementation interface provides a number of methods for performing operations that are independent of any particular instance of the document object model.

Class synopsis

DOMImplementation {
/* Properties */
/* Methods */
__construct ( void )
public DOMDocument createDocument ([ string $namespaceURI = NULL [, string $qualifiedName = NULL [, DOMDocumentType $doctype = NULL ]]] )
public DOMDocumentType createDocumentType ([ string $qualifiedName = NULL [, string $publicId = NULL [, string $systemId = NULL ]]] )
public bool hasFeature ( string $feature , string $version )
}

Ok got it working like a charm using "proxy pattern" with traits. The idea being declaring the common methods inside a "trait" in order for extended and registered Node Classes to have access even if not derived / child of the extended DOMNode…

Here a small snippet :
<?php
   
namespace my;

    trait
tNode
   
{    // We need the magic method __get in order to add properties such as DOMNode->parentElement
       
public function __get($name)
        {    if(
property_exists($this, $name)){return $this->$name;}
            if(
method_exists($this, $name)){return $this->$name();}
            throw new \
ErrorException('my\\Node property \''.(string) $name.'\' not found…', 42, E_USER_WARNING);
        }

       
// parentElement property definition
       
private function parentElement()
        {    if(
$this->parentNode === null){return null;}
            if(
$this->parentNode->nodeType === XML_ELEMENT_NODE){return $this->parentNode;}
            return
$this->parentNode->parentElement();
        }

       
// JavaScript equivalent
       
public function isEqualNode(\DOMNode $node){return $this->isSameNode($node);}
        public function
compareDocumentPosition(\DOMNode $otherNode)
        {    if(
$this->ownerDocument !== $otherNode->ownerDocument){return DOCUMENT_POSITION_DISCONNECTED;}
           
$c = strcmp($this->getNodePath(), $otherNode->getNodePath());
            if(
$c === 0){return 0;}
            else if(
$c < 0){return DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING | ($c < -1 ? DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINED_BY : 0);}
            return
DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING | ($c > 1 ? DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINS : 0);
        }
        public function
contains(\DOMNode $otherNode){return ($this->compareDocumentPosition($otherNode) >= DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINED_BY);}
    }

    class
Document extends \DomDocument
   
{    public function __construct($version=null, $encoding=null)
        {   
parent::__construct($version, $encoding);
           
$this->registerNodeClass('DOMNode', 'my\Node');
           
$this->registerNodeClass('DOMElement', 'my\Element');
           
$this->registerNodeClass('DOMDocument', 'my\Document');
           
/* [...] */
       
}
    }

    class
Element extends \DOMElement
   
{    use tNode;
       
/* [...] */
   
}

    class
Node extends \DOMNode
   
{    use tNode;
       
/* [...] */
   
}

officially, the w3 specifies that the way to access dom interfaces is through this class

so if you use

$doc = new DOMDocument("1.0", "UTF-8");

use instead:

$x = new DOMImplementation();
$doc = $x->createDocument(NULL,"rootElementName");
$doc->xmlVersion="1.0";
$doc->xmlEncoding="UTF-8";

it is not required by php's implementation, but, probably, it is a good practice

see:

From what I've seen you must "recode" the "createDocument" method in order to call your own object extension…

<?php
[...]
    public function
createDocument($namespaceURI=null, $qualifiedName=null, DOMDocumentType $docType=null)
    {   
$doc=new Document();
       
$doc->appendChild(parent::createDocumentType('html'));
       
$this->doc->appendChild($namespaceURI ? $this->doc->createElementNS($namespaceURI,$qualifiedName) : $this->doc->createElement($qualifiedName));
    return
$doc;
    }
[...]
?>

Where I am struggling is extending the whole tree so that calling the customized Implementation method returns a whole extended tree…
Expected result : Implementation > Document > DOMDocument > Node > DOMNode
Actual result : Implementation > Document > DOMDocument > DOMNode :(

Why not use the DOMImplementation to directly register your DOM Class extensions ?

<?php
namespace My;
class
Implementation extends \DOMImplementation
{    private $doc;
    public function
__construct(){return $this->createDocument();}
    public function
__get($name){return $this->doc->{$name};}
    public function
__set($name,$value){$this->doc->{$name}=$value;}
    public function
__isset($name){return isset($this->doc->{$name});}
    public function
__unset($name){return $this->doc->__unset($name);}
    public function
__call($name,$args){return call_user_func_array(array($this->doc,$name),$args);}
   
    public function
createDocument($namespaceURI=null,$qualifiedName=null,DOMDocumentType $docType=null)
    {   
$this->doc=parent::createDocument($namespaceURI,$qualifiedName,$docType);
       
$this->doc->xmlVersion='1.0';
       
$this->doc->xmlEncoding='UTF-8';
       
$this->doc->registerNodeClass('DOMDocument','My\Document');
       
$this->doc->registerNodeClass('DOMDocumentFragment','My\DocumentFragment');
       
$this->doc->registerNodeClass('DOMElement','My\Element');
       
$this->doc->registerNodeClass('DOMComment','My\Comment');
       
$this->doc->registerNodeClass('DOMNode','My\Node');
       
/* …, …, … */
       
return $this->doc;
    }
}
?>
