Hi Carlos, This sounds interesting.
A mature solution used in JS is lodash, with the get and has functions: - https://lodash.com/docs/#get - https://lodash.com/docs/#has Also, from what I could search, Laravel array helpers have this functionality as well: - https://laravel.com/docs/master/helpers#method-array-get - https://laravel.com/docs/master/helpers#method-array-has I was curious; did you research both, and maybe also other libraries? If yes, it would be nice to mention this in the RFC. They have some options, like allowing the key parameter as a list of strings as well. And also escaping the dot in the key in one way or another. -- Alex On Sat, Apr 4, 2026 at 5:08 PM Barel <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I would like to open the discussion on my proposal to add two small, > focused array functions for retrieving and checking nested array elements > using dot notation. > > This is the link to the RFC: > https://wiki.php.net/rfc/array_get_and_array_has > > This is the link to the proposed implementation: > https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/21637 > > Thanks!! > > Carlos >
