Hi,
I'd like to ask if I can use this package for instances that use 1:n relations. In other words, I don't have single Address but array or Laravel collection of addresses.

I manage to test it with something like this:

    public function setTranslations(Array $translations)
    {
        $this->translations = collect($translations)->map(function ($translation) {
            return new RouteTranslation($translation);
        });
    }

In this case standard DTO->toArray() won't work with nested collection.
I used collect just to have easier access for those DTO's later

Do you have any thoughts about this kind of use case?

Hey there,

i am just playing around with your package - nice idea so far. However, i stumbled upon a question, i wasn't able to answer myself..

Is it possible to "dynamically" generate properties in a DTO? For example, i want to have one GenericDTO that automatically assigns key/value pairs..

However, if I call

$dto = new GenericDTO(['foo' => 'bar', ...]);`

i get an error, that foo is not defined or inaccessible.. Which is true, because my GenericDTO does not have such a property..

In other words, is it possible to append properties dynamically? If yes, how? ;)
Thanks a lot for your time / effort!
