Accessing properties

We use Symfony's PropertyAccess component to help read and write data.

Array properties

To access array properties use the index notation, specifying array keys within square brackets.

Access $data['name']:

[name]

Access $data['people']['name']:

[people][name]

Access $data['people']['categories'][0]:

[people][categories][0]

Object properties

To access object properties use the dot notation, specifying object properties separated by a dot character.

Access $data->name:

name

Access $data->people->name:

people.name

Access $data->people->categories[0]:

people.name.categories[0]
