#Fixit

Version

Track your "Fixme" comments real quick with just a command!

Installation

composer global require lavary/fixit

After the package is installed, a command-line utility named fixit is copied to your ~/.composer/vendor/bin directory, if installed globally.

To make sure the command is available from anywhere, make sure ~/.composer/vendor/bin is added to your PATH environment variable. Otherwise, you'll have to use the full path to the command.

You can also install it for a specific project; In that case, it is copied to the vendor/bin directory of the project.

To see the available arguments and options, you may run the following command:

fixit --help

Usage

Fixit tracks and collects all the comments in specified files marked with certain keywords set in the configuration file or as command options.

Comments can be in the following form across the code base. However, it can be configured in the configuration file.

 // KEYWORD some description about it

Here's a basic usage:

fixit scan --include /Path/to/your/code

By default, comments starting with keywords fixme, fix-me, todo, to-do are collected by the collector. However, this can be configured in the configuration file (More on this below) or the command option --keyword:

fixit scan --include /Path/to/your/code --keyword fixme --keyword warning

As you can see, it is possible to specify several keywords at the same time.

The output could be something like:

 - File:/Path/to/CodeBase/src/Controller/AdminControllerProvider.php

Line  Type        Comment               
37    fixme       some thing wrong here 
450   warning     This part should be improved 

-File:/Path/to/CodeBase/src/Controller/UserControllerProvider.php

Line Type        Comment                   
59   fixme       This block should be refactored soon

187 file(s) scanned.
 3 issue(s) were found in 2 file(s).

Note: If you choose one keyword for a certain issue (fixme, bug, bottleneck, etc), just stick to it to make sure no comment remain untracked.

Output Types

By default, the output is rendered in a tabular format. However, you can specify the output by output_type option in the command line or the configuration file. Three types are supported out of the box: table, json, and list.

vendor/bin/fixit scan include /Path/to/your/codebase --output_type json

Which outputs:

[  
   {  
      "file":"/Path/to/Codebase/src/AdminControllerProvider.php",
      "items":[  
         {  
            "line":"37",
            "type":"warning",
            "comment":"some thing wrong here"
         }
      ]
   },
   {  
      "file":"/Path/to/Codebase/src/UserController.php",
      "items":[  
         {  
            "line":"59",
            "type":"warning",
            "comment":"another one here"
         }
      ]
   }
]

Or as a list:

vendor/bin/fixit scan --include /Path/to/your/codebase --output_type list
 - File:/Path/to/Codebase/src/Controller/AdminControllerProvider.php
 * 37 warning some thing wrong here
 * 59 warning This part should be improved
 
 - File:/Path/to/Codebase/src/FormApply/Controller/UserController.php
 * 59 warning another one here


187 file(s) scanned.
 2 issue(s) were found in 2 file(s).

Include or Exclude Certain Directories or Files

It is possible to limit the collection to a limited number of directories or files (inside those directories).

To do this, you can use --include, --exclude, --include_file, and --exclude_file command options.

fixit scan --include path/to/code  --exclude Controller --exclude Model

The above command will scan all the files and directories inside path/to/code directory except for Controller and Model directories.

We can also exclude a certain file:

fixit scan --include path/to/code  --exclude Controller --exclude_file Models/User.php

The above command will scan all files inside path/to/code directory except for Controller directory and Model/User.php file.

You can use these options as many time as required, to specify the desired directories and files to scan.

By default vendor directory is ignored.

All these options can also bet set in the configuration file.

Configuration

All the options mentioned above can be set via a YAML configuration file, which is shipped with the package.

The configuration file looks like this:

# Fixit configuration

keyword: ['fixme', 'fix-me', 'todo', 'to-do']

pattern: '\/\/\s*@?(%keyword%):?\s+(.+)'
titles:  ['Line', 'Type', 'Comment']

include: ~
exclude: ['vendor']
include_file: ~
exclude_file: ~

output_type: table

The option keyword is the list of keywords we need to fetch from the files while scanning. You can put any keyword based on your team's conventions.

The pattern and titles will be covered in the Advanced Usage section of this README file.

The next set of options is very straightforward as we've already used them on the command line. the options include, exclude, include_dir, exclude_dir all accept an array as value:

# ...

include: ['/Path/to/Code/Model', 'Path/to/Code/Controller']
include_file: ['User.php', 'UserController.php']

# ...

The option output_type specifies the render type which can be table, json, or list.

Note All these settings are overridden by their command option counterpart

Editing the Configuration File

To use your own configuration file you need to make a copy of your own.

To make a copy run the following command:

fixit config:publish

Please input the destination directory

You need to specify the path you want to keep the configuration file. It can be anywhere in your system. Finally, you can go to the specified directory to edit the settings as desired.

To use the configuration file just pass it to fixit scan command via --configuration option:

fixit scan --configuration path/to/config.yml

Advanced Usage

As you probably remember from the configuration file, there are to more options that you can use if the current settings do not fulfill your requirements. For example, if you want to have more complex comment structures for tracking your "todo" comments, you can change the pattern and titles options accordingly.

titles specifies the column titles when showing the results.
