ABOUT

This component changes the way Magento 2 generates Interceptor classes (a mechanism that allows plugins to work together).

Instead of generating boilerplate code it compiles the Interceptor using information from source code. This makes plugins slightly faster and as Magento uses a lot of plugins, even at its core, it lowers request time by ~10%. This is important in places where there is a lot of non-cached PHP logic going on (for example admin panel is noticeably faster).

The default method uses code that is called on nearly each method to see if there are any plugins connected, in generated code this is not required and call-stack is reduced.

Having plugins called directly also makes code easier to debug and bugs easier to find.

The Interceptors generated by this plugin are 100% compatible with the ones generated by Magento by default, so there is no need to change anything in your plugins.

VERSIONS

As Magento 2.4 introduced changes in Interceptors generator which are not backward compatible this module has separate branch for both Magento versions:

CONFIGURATION

This module adds following preference to work in developer mode:

<preference for="Magento\Framework\Interception\Code\Generator\Interceptor" type="Creatuity\Interception\Generator\CompiledInterceptor" />

And following preferences to work in production or default modes:

<preference for="Magento\Setup\Module\Di\Code\Generator\Interceptor" type="Creatuity\Interception\Generator\CompiledInterceptor" />
<preference for="Magento\Setup\Module\Di\Compiler\Config\Chain\InterceptorSubstitution" type="Creatuity\Interception\Generator\CompiledInterceptorSubstitution" />

Those are enabled by default in module di.xml.

However this module does not touch the default generation method so you can override above preferences to fallback to the default mechanism for all or selected modes.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Instead of interceptors that read plugins config at runtime like this:

public function methodX($arg) {
    $pluginInfo = $this->pluginList->getNext($this->subjectType, 'methodX');
    if (!$pluginInfo) {
        return parent::methodX($arg);
    } else {
        return $this->___callPlugins('methodX', func_get_args(), $pluginInfo);
    }
}

This generator generates static interceptors like this:

public function methodX($arg) {
    switch(getCurrentScope()){
        case 'frontend':
            $this->_get_example_plugin()->beforeMethodX($this, $arg);
            $this->_get_another_plugin()->beforeMethodX($this, $arg);
            $result = $this->_get_around_plugin()->aroundMethodX($this, function($arg){
                return parent::methodX($arg);
            });
            return $this->_get_after_plugin()->afterMethodX($this, $result);
        case 'adminhtml':
            // ...
        default:
            return parent::methodX($arg);
    }
}
