Visitor en PHP
Visitor es un patrón de diseño de comportamiento que permite añadir nuevos comportamientos a una jerarquía de clases existente sin alterar el código.
Lee por qué el patrón Visitor no puede simplemente sustituirse por la sobrecarga de métodos, en nuestro artículo Visitor y envío doble.
Complejidad:
Popularidad:
Ejemplos de uso: El patrón Visitor no es muy habitual en el código PHP debido a su complejidad y limitada aplicabilidad.
Ejemplo conceptual
Este ejemplo ilustra la estructura del patrón de diseño Visitor y se centra en las siguientes preguntas:
- ¿De qué clases se compone?
- ¿Qué papeles juegan esas clases?
- ¿De qué forma se relacionan los elementos del patrón?
Después de conocer la estructura del patrón, será más fácil comprender el siguiente ejemplo basado en un caso de uso real de PHP.

Output.txt: Resultado de la ejecución
The client code works with all visitors via the base Visitor interface:
A + ConcreteVisitor1
B + ConcreteVisitor1
It allows the same client code to work with different types of visitors:
A + ConcreteVisitor2
B + ConcreteVisitor2
Ejemplo del mundo real
En este ejemplo, el patrón Visitor ayuda a introducir una función de reporte en una jerarquía de clases existente: Compañía > Departamento > Empleado
Una vez que la infraestructura se añade a la aplicación, puedes añadir fácilmente otros comportamientos similares sin cambiar las clases existentes.
