# Inferring interfaces When the mapper meets an interface, it needs to understand which implementation (a class that implements this interface) will be used — this information must be provided in the mapper builder, using the method `infer()`. The callback given to this method must return the name of a class that implements the interface. Any arguments can be required by the callback; they will be mapped properly using the given source. If the callback can return several class names, it needs to provide a return signature with the list of all class-strings that can be returned (see below). ```php $mapper = (new \CuyZ\Valinor\MapperBuilder()) ->infer(UuidInterface::class, fn () => MyUuid::class) ->infer( SomeInterface::class, /** @return class-string */ fn (string $type) => match($type) { 'first' => FirstImplementation::class, 'second' => SecondImplementation::class, default => throw new DomainException("Unhandled type `$type`.") } )->mapper(); // Will return an instance of `FirstImplementation` $mapper->map(SomeInterface::class, [ 'type' => 'first', 'uuid' => 'a6868d61-acba-406d-bcff-30ecd8c0ceb6', 'someString' => 'foo', ]); // Will return an instance of `SecondImplementation` $mapper->map(SomeInterface::class, [ 'type' => 'second', 'uuid' => 'a6868d61-acba-406d-bcff-30ecd8c0ceb6', 'someInt' => 42, ]); interface SomeInterface {} final class FirstImplementation implements SomeInterface { public readonly UuidInterface $uuid; public readonly string $someString; } final class SecondImplementation implements SomeInterface { public readonly UuidInterface $uuid; public readonly int $someInt; } ```
