WireArray::has() method

Does this WireArray have the given item, index, or match the given selector?

If the WireArray uses numeric keys, then this will also match a WireData object's "name" field.

Example

// See if it has a given $item
if($items->has($item)) {
  // Has the given $item
}

// See if it has an object with a "name" property matching our text
if($items->has("name=something")) {
  // Has an item with a "name" property equal to "something"
}

// Same as above, but works since "name" is assumed for many types
if($items->has("something")) {
  // It has it
}

Usage

$bool = $wireArray->has($key);

Arguments

NameType(s)Description
keyint, string, Wire

Key of item to check or selector.

Return value

bool

True if the item exists, false if not.

“We chose ProcessWire because of its excellent architecture, modular extensibility and the internal API. The CMS offers the necessary flexibility and performance for such a complex website like superbude.de. ProcessWire offers options that are only available for larger systems, such as Drupal, and allows a much slimmer development process.” —xport communication GmbH
