Usage

use Koine\Parameters;

$params = new Parameters(array(
    'user' => array(
        'name'  => 'Foo',
        'email' => '[email protected]',
        'admin' => true
     )
));

// throws exception
$userParams = $params->requireParam('user')->permit(array(
    'name',
    'email',
));

// filters value
Parameters::$throwsException = false;

$userParams = $params->requireParam('user')->permit(array(
    'name',
    'email',
))->toArray(); // array('name' => 'Foo', 'email' => '[email protected]')


// nested params

$params = new Params(array(
    'book' => array(
        'title'   => 'Some Title',
        'edition' => '3',
        'authors' => array(
            array(
                'name'     => 'Jon',
                'birthday' => '1960-01-02',
            ),

                'birthday' => '1960-01-02',
            ),
        )
    ),
    'foo' => 'bar',
    'bar' => 'foo'

$params->permit(array(
    'book' => array(
        'authors' => array('name'),
        'title'
    ),
    'foo'
))->toArray();

/**

// array params

$params = new Params(array(
    'tags' => array('php', 'ruby')
));

$params->permit(array('tags' => array()))->toArray();
// array( 'tags' => array('php', 'ruby'))

// array params with invalid data

$params = new Params(array(
    'tags' => 'invalid'
));

$params->permit(array('tags' => array()))->toArray(); // array()


// do something with the values
