README

This library helps you locate classes, interfaces, traits, and enums in PHP code. The construct finder locates all code constructs located in a directory.

Installation

composer require league/construct-finder

Usage

Finding constructs

You can find all constructs or use a type specific finder.

use League\ConstructFinder\ConstructFinder;

// Find all constructs
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findAll();
$constructNames = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findAllNames();

// Find all classes
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findClasses();
$constructNames = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findClassNames()

// Find all interfaces
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findInterfaces();
$constructNames = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findInterfaceNames();

// Find all enums
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findEnums();
$constructNames = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findEnumNames();

// Find all traits
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findTraits();
$constructNames = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findTraitNames();

Using a construct

Constructs are simple value objects that expose the name and the type.

use League\ConstructFinder\Construct;
use League\ConstructFinder\ConstructFinder;
// Find all constructs
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')->findAll();

/** @var Construct $construct */
$construct = $constructs[0];

$name = $construct->name();
$name = (string) $construct;

$type = $construct->type(); // class, trait, interface, enum

Finding in multiple directories

Provide multiple directories to search from in one go.

use League\ConstructFinder\ConstructFinder;

// Find all constructs
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(
    __DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory',
    __DIR__ . '/AnotherDirectory',
)->findAll();

Excluding files based on exclude patterns

All patterns are match in full. You can use a wildcard (*) for fuzzy matching.

use League\ConstructFinder\ConstructFinder;

// Find all constructs
$constructs = ConstructFinder::locatedIn(__DIR__ . '/SomeDirectory')
    ->exclude('*Test.php', '*/Tests/*')
    ->findAll();
