This code seems to be duplicated across your project.
Duplicated code is one of the most pungent code smells. If you need to duplicate
the same code in three or more different places, we strongly encourage you to
look into extracting the code into a single class or operation.
You can also find more detailed suggestions in the “Code” section of your repository.

Using logical operators such as or instead of || is generally not recommended.
PHP has two types of connecting operators (logical operators, and boolean operators):
Logical Operators
Boolean Operator
AND - meaning
and
&&
OR - meaning
or
||
The difference between these is the order in which they are executed. In most cases,
you would want to use a boolean operator like &&, or ||.
Let’s take a look at a few examples:
// Logical operators have lower precedence:$f=falseortrue;// is executed like this:($f=false)ortrue;// Boolean operators have higher precedence:$f=false||true;// is executed like this:$f=(false||true);
Logical Operators are used for Control-Flow
One case where you explicitly want to use logical operators is for control-flow
such as this:
$x===5ordie('$x must be 5.');// Instead ofif($x!==5){die('$x must be 5.');}
Since die introduces problems of its own, f.e. it makes our code hardly
testable, and prevents any kind of more sophisticated error handling; you probably
do not want to use this in real-world code. Unfortunately, logical operators
cannot be combined with throw at this point:
// The following is currently a parse error.$x===5orthrownewRuntimeException('$x must be 5.');
These limitations lead to logical operators rarely being of use in current
PHP code.
