Description

A PHP library for parsing WordPress plugin and theme metadata. Point it at a ZIP package and it will:

• Tell you whether it contains a plugin or a theme.
• Give you the metadata from the comment header (Version, Description, Author URI, etc).
• Parse readme.txt into a list of headers and sections.
• Convert readme.txt contents from Markdown to HTML (optional).

Usage

To install simply

composer require capevace/wp-package-parser

Now you're able to use the parser!

use WPPackageParser\Parser;

$filepath = __DIR__ . '/resources/test-plugin.zip';
$result = Parser::parse($filepath);
