PHP: Can I get the index in an array_map function?

Question

I\'m using a map in php like so:

function func($v) {
    return $v * 2;
}

$values = array(4, 6, 3);
$mapped = array_map(func, $values);
var_dump($mapped);
         


        

Answer 1

For a fast and open solution (without doubling array using array_keys and similar):

/**
 * Array map alternative to work with values and keys of single array.
 *
 * Callable receives $value and $index of $sourceArray as arguments
 * If keys are not preserved via $preserveKeys - $keyCallback can be used to determinate key
 *
 * @param array $sourceArray
 * @param callable|null $valueCallback
 * @param callable|null $keyCallback
 * @param bool $preserveKeys
 * @return array
 */
function array_map_indexed(
    array $sourceArray,
    ?callable $valueCallback = null,
    ?callable $keyCallback = null,
    bool $preserveKeys = true
): array {
    $newArray = [];

    foreach ($sourceArray as $key => $value) {
        if ($preserveKeys) {
            $newArray[$keyCallback ? $keyCallback($value, $key) : $key] = $valueCallback
                ? $valueCallback($value, $key)
                : $value;
        } else {
            $newArray[] = $valueCallback
                ? $valueCallback($value, $key)
                : $value;
        }
    }

    return $newArray;
}

Usage examples:

$result = array_map_indexed(
    [
        'a' => 'aValue',
        'b' => 'bValue',
    ],
    function($value, $index) {
        return [$value, $index];
    },
);
//Array ( [a] => Array ( [0] => aValue [1] => a ) [b] => Array ( [0] => bValue [1] => b ) )

$result = array_map_indexed(
    [
        'a' => 'aValue',
        'b' => 'bValue',
    ],
    function($value, $index) {
        return $index.$value;
    },
    null,
    false
);
//Array ( [0] => aaValue [1] => bbValue )

$result = array_map_indexed(
    [
        'a' => 'aValue',
        'b' => 'bValue',
    ],
    null,
    function($value, $index) {
        return $value === 'aValue' ? 'specificKey' : $index;
    },
);
//Array ( [specificKey] => aValue [b] => bValue )
