Transformers take complex values and transform them into simple types. For example, a Carbon
object could be transformed to 16-05-1994T00:00:00+00
.
A transformer implements the following interface:
interface Transformer
{
public function transform(DataProperty $property, mixed $value): mixed;
}
The value that should be transformed is given, and a DataProperty
object which represents the property for which the value is transformed. You can read more about the internal structures of the package here.
In the end, the transformer should return a transformed value. Please note that the given value of a transformer can never be null
.
