vlw 0db14c2d0b chore: change project namespace (#3)
Change namespace from `victorwesterlund/globalsnapshot` to `vlw/globalsnapshot`.

I will also deprecate the [existing Packagist listing](https://packagist.org/packages/victorwesterlund/globalsnapshot) in favor of a new one using the new namespace.

php-globalsnapshot

Capture the current state of all PHP superglobal variables; which can then be restored to that state at a later time.

Example use:

// Initial state
$_ENV["hello"] = "world"; // echo: "world"

// Capture initial state
$snapshot = (new GlobalSnapshot())->capture();

// Manipulate superglobals
$_ENV["hello"] .= " and mom!"; // echo: "world and mom"

// Restore initial state
$snapshot->restore();

// Initial state restored
echo $_ENV["hello"]; // echo: "world"

Quickstart

  1. Install with composer
composer install vlw/globalsnapshot
  1. use in your project
use vlw\GlobalSnapshot;
  1. Capture current superglobals with capture()
// Initialize a new GlobalSnapshot instance to store current values (one snapshot per instance)
$snapshot = new GlobalSnapshot();

// Capture current superglobal state
$snapshot->capture();
  1. Restore superglobals with restore()
// ... some other code

// Restore superglobals to state of `capture()`
$snapshot->restore();
