OOP - Convert Function to Class

[benanamen]

How would I to convert the following function to a class? What is the proper way to deal with GET and POST in a class since they are globals?

 

My start

class ShowActionMessage
{

}

Function to convert

function show_action_messages()
{
if (isset($_GET['insert']))
{
$action = 'Added';
}

if (isset($_GET['edit']))
{
$action = 'Updated';
}

if (isset($_GET['deleted']))
{
$action = 'Deleted';
}

if (isset($_GET['emailed']))
{
$action = 'Emailed';
}

if (isset($action))
{
?>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2">
<div class="success">Record <?= $action ?></div>
</div>
</div>
<?php
}
}

Why do you think you need a class for this? And for what, exactly?

[benanamen]

This is just for learning OOP. It is not about the function itself really, but how to handle superglobals in a class. The issue actually came up in a login logging class that uses $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], another superglobal. Several code analyzers (scrutinizer, codacy, code climate ) pointed out a problem with using them in the class. 

 

 

* As far as what the function is for, it is used to display messages to the user after certain actions such as a db record added or deleted

If you have code that deals with superglobals (eg, a "Request" class) then use it. Otherwise it's not a crime to use them - just don't make changes.
