wp_parse_args()

💡 云策文档标注

概述

wp_parse_args() 是 WordPress 核心函数，用于将用户定义的参数与默认数组合并，支持数组、对象或查询字符串作为输入。它广泛应用于 WordPress 内部，简化参数处理逻辑，提供稳定的参数传递模式。

关键要点

函数接受两个参数：$args（必需，可以是字符串、数组或对象）和 $defaults（可选，默认值为空数组），返回合并后的数组。
主要用途是避免在函数调用中处理默认值和输入参数的复杂性，允许函数通过 $args 参数灵活扩展可传递的值。
常见应用场景包括 query_posts、wp_list_comments、get_terms 等函数，以及许多核心类和 API 中。
从 WordPress 2.2.0 版本引入，2.3.0 版本起 $args 支持对象类型。

代码示例

function wpdocs_my_function( $args ) {
  $defaults = array(
    'name' => 'Mr. nobody',
    'favorite_color' => 'unknown',
    'age' => 'unknown',
  );
  $args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );
  print_r( $args );
}

$args = array( 'age' => 36 );
wpdocs_my_function( $args );
// 输出：Array( 'name' => 'Mr. nobody', 'favorite_color' => 'unknown', 'age' => 36 )

注意事项

wp_parse_args() 不会递归合并数组；如果需要递归合并，需自定义函数实现。
用户贡献笔记中提供了递归合并数组的示例函数 wpdocs_recursive_parse_args，可供参考。
注意函数内部使用 array_merge()，$defaults 数组中的值会被 $args 覆盖，顺序为 $defaults 在前。

📄 原文内容

Merges user defined arguments into defaults array.

Description

This function is used throughout WordPress to allow for both string or array to be merged into another array.

Parameters

$argsstring|array|objectrequired: Value to merge with $defaults.
$defaultsarrayoptional: Array that serves as the defaults.

Default:array()

Return

array Merged user defined values with defaults.

wp_parse_args is a generic utility for merging together an array of arguments and an array of default values. It can also be given a URL query type string which will be converted into an array (i.e. "id=5&status;=draft").

It is used throughout WordPress to avoid having to worry about the logic of defaults and input and produces a stable pattern for passing arguments around. Functions like query_posts, wp_list_comments and get_terms are common examples of the simplifying power of wp_parse_args.

Functions that have an $args based setting are able to infinitely expand the number of values that can potentially be passed into them, avoiding the annoyance of super-long function calls because there are too many arguments to keep track of, many of whose only function is to override usually-good defaults on rare occasions.

Source

function wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults = array() ) {
	if ( is_object( $args ) ) {
		$parsed_args = get_object_vars( $args );
	} elseif ( is_array( $args ) ) {
		$parsed_args =& $args;
	} else {
		wp_parse_str( $args, $parsed_args );
	}

	if ( is_array( $defaults ) && $defaults ) {
		return array_merge( $defaults, $parsed_args );
	}
	return $parsed_args;
}

Basic usage:

function wpdocs_my_function( $args ) {

  $defaults = array(
    'name' => 'Mr. nobody',
    'favorite_color' => 'unknown',
    'age' => 'unknown',
  );

  $args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );

  print_r( $args );

}

$args = array( 'age' => 36 );
wpdocs_my_function( $args );

// Output:
// 
// Array(

Below is an example function using the wp_parse_args system to manage its single $args argument, which could be given whatever values you wanted.
In this case $args stores detailed display overrides, a pattern found in many WordPress functions.

/**
 * Define a new function that uses $args and wp_parse_args()
 */
function wpdocs_explain_parse_args( $args ) {
	$defaults = array (
		'text' => 'wp_parse_args() merges $args into $defaults',
		'before' => "<p>",
		'after' => "</p> n",
 		'echo' => TRUE
	);
	
	// Parse incoming $args into an array and merge it with $defaults
	$args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );

Thank you bhlarsen for this function but there is a little mistake:

if (!$echo)
must be replaced by
if (!$args['echo'])

If you are looking to recursively merge two arrays, here is the function:

if ( ! function_exists( 'wpdocs_recursive_parse_args' ) ) {
	function wpdocs_recursive_parse_args( $args, $defaults ) {
		$new_args = (array) $defaults;

		foreach ( $args as $key => $value ) {
			if ( is_array( $value ) && isset( $new_args[ $key ] ) ) {
				$new_args[ $key ] = wpdocs_recursive_parse_args( $value, $new_args[ $key ] );
			}
			else {
				$new_args[ $key ] = $value;
			}
		}

		return $new_args;
	}
}

Test case:

$defaults = [
	'x1' => 'level1',
	'x2' => [
		'a1' => 'level1',
		'a2' => 'level1',
	],
	'x4' => [
		'b1' => [
			'c1' => 'level1',
		],
		'b2' => 'level1',
	],
	'x3' => 'level1',
];
$args     = [
	'x3' => 'level2',
	'x2' => [
		'a2' => 'level2',
	],
	'x4' => [
		'b1' => [
			'c1' => 'level2',
			'c2' => 'leve2',
			'c3' => [
				'd1' => [
					'e1' => 'ok',
				],
			],
		],
	],
];

print_r( awps_recursive_parse_args( $args, $defaults );

/**
 * Result
 */
/*
[
	'x1' => 'level1',
	'x2' => [
		'a1' => 'level1',
		'a2' => 'level2',
	],
	'x4' => [
		'b1' => [
			'c1' => 'level2',
			'c2' => 'leve2',
			'c3' => [
				'd1' => [
					'e1' => 'ok',
				],
			],
		],
		'b2' => 'level1',
	],
	'x3' => 'level2',
];
*/
