DenormalizableInterface

interface DenormalizableInterface

Defines the most basic interface a class must implement to be denormalizable.

If a denormalizer is registered for the class and it doesn't implement the Denormalizable interfaces, the normalizer will be used instead

Methods

object
denormalize(DenormalizerInterface $denormalizer, array|string|int|float|bool $data, string|null $format = null, array $context = array())

Denormalizes the object back from an array of scalars|arrays.

Details

object denormalize(DenormalizerInterface $denormalizer, array|string|int|float|bool $data, string|null $format = null, array $context = array())

Denormalizes the object back from an array of scalars|arrays.

It is important to understand that the denormalize() call should denormalize recursively all child objects of the implementor.

Parameters

DenormalizerInterface $denormalizer The denormalizer is given so that you can use it to denormalize objects contained within this object
array|string|int|float|bool $data The data from which to re-create the object
string|null $format The format is optionally given to be able to denormalize differently based on different input formats
array $context Options for denormalizing

Return Value

object
