Preconditions

Preconditions are ment to be an alternative way to ensure that a precondition for a specific method is given.

Available checks

• checkArgument()
• checkArgNotNull()

Additional exceptions

• NullPointerException

Example

Instead of writing

    if ($count <= 0) {
        throw new \InvalidArgumentException("must be positive: " . $count);
    }

you could use a precondition like

    use \MehrAlsNix\Preconditions\PreconditionUtil;
    //...
    PreconditionUtil::checkArgument($count <= 0, 'must be positive: %s', $count);
