Introduction

Category is a class that is used in order to separate a category into multiple categories with an ability to progress teams from one category to the other.


Creating a new category class

Basic construction

include_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$tournament = new TournamentGenerator\Tournament('Tournament name');

$category = new TournamentGenerator\Category('Category name');

$tournament->addCategory($category);

From a category class

Recomended
This automatically assigns the category to the category.

include_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$tournament = new TournamentGenerator\Tournament('Tournament name');

$category = $tournament->category('Category name');

Properties

Scope Name Type Default Description
protected $name string '' Name of the category
protected $id string|int null Id of the category
private $rounds array [] List of category rounds
private $teams array [] List of teams
private $allowSkip bool false If true, generator will skip unplayed games without throwing exception
