What is GraPHPizer?

This is a command-line tool that's designed for usage with the GraPHPizer server application. A general description of what GraPHPizer is and what it does can be found there.

Installation

Prerequisites

• PHP in version 5.5 or newer
• Composer in a halfway recent version
• A GraPHPizer server running on a network-reachable machine

Install using composer

You can install the GraPHPizer CLI using Composer:

$ composer require helmich/graphpizer-cli

You can also install the CLI globally:

$ composer global require helmich/graphpizer-cli

After installation you will find a graphpizer executable in your bin dir (when installing locally, this will typically be $PWD/vendor/bin. When installing globally, it will be $HOME/.composer/bin).

Configuration

CLI flags

The graphpizer command-line utility offers a variety of flags and parameters that can be set on invocation:

• --graph-host or -H configures the GraPHPizer server name. The default value is localhost.
• --graph-port or -P configures the GraPHPizer port. The default value is 9000

The graphpizer.json configuration file(s)

For a per-project configuration, you can also create a graphpizer.json file inside your project root directory. You can also create additional graphpizer.json files in sub-directories of your project; these configurations will be applied to that directory and it's sub-directories only.

See the respective section in the GraPHPizer server documentation for more information.

Usage

The graphpizer CLI tool offers a set of commands that can be called. The most important is the import:ast command which is invoked as follows:

graphpizer import:ast [--prune] <path-to-project>...

You can specify any number of diretories or files as arguments to the import:ast call. Furthermore, you can set the --prune flag when you don't want incremental source code import.
