Is there a shorter solution for something like this?
$manufacturer = array();
if(!is_null($params->get('name'))){
$manufacturer['name'] = $params->get('name');
}
if(!is_null($params->get('link'))){
$manufacturer['link'] = $params->get('link');
}
if(!is_null($params->get('description'))){
$manufacturer['description'] = $params->get('description');
}
...
So a key of an array should only be set with the value if the value is not null. This is a bit shorter, but with this solution the keys will exist with the value NULL. But they should not even exist when the value was NULL:
$manufacturer = array(
'name' => !is_null($params->get('name')) ? $params->get('name') : null,
'link' => !is_null($params->get('link')) ? $params->get('link') : null,
'description' => !is_null($params->get('description')) ? $params->get('description') : null
);
EDIT:
It should work for multidimensional arrays and the array keys and param keys may vary
