Introduction

PHPArkitect helps you to keep your PHP codebase coherent and solid, by permitting to add some architectural constraint check to your workflow. You can express the constraint that you want to enforce, in simple and readable PHP code, for example:

Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
    ->should(new HaveNameMatching('*Controller'))
    ->because('it\'s a symfony naming convention');

Installation

Using Composer

composer require --dev phparkitect/phparkitect

Using a Phar

Sometimes your project can conflict with one or more of PHPArkitect's dependencies. In that case you may find the Phar (a self-contained PHP executable) useful.

The Phar can be downloaded from GitHub:

wget https://github.com/phparkitect/arkitect/releases/latest/download/phparkitect.phar
chmod +x phparkitect.phar
./phparkitect.phar check

Usage

To use this tool you need to launch a command via Bash:

phparkitect check

With this command phparkitect will search all rules in the root of your project the default config file called phparkitect.php. You can also specify your configuration file using --config option like this:

phparkitect check --config=/project/yourConfigFile.php

By default, a progress bar will show the status of the ongoing analysis.

Using a baseline file

If there are a lot of violations in your codebase and you can't fix them now, you can use the baseline feature to instruct the tool to ignore past violations.

To create a baseline file, run the check command with the generate-baseline parameter as follows:

phparkitect check --generate-baseline

This will create a phparkitect-baseline.json, if you want a different file name you can do it with:

phparkitect check --generate-baseline=my-baseline.json

It will produce a json file with the current list of violations.

If is present a baseline file with the default name will be used automatically.

To use a different baseline file, run the check command with the use-baseline parameter as follows:

phparkitect check --use-baseline=my-baseline.json

To avoid using the default baseline file, you can use the skip-baseline option:

phparkitect check --skip-baseline

Line numbers in baseline

By default, the baseline check also looks at line numbers of known violations. When a line before the offending line changes, the line numbers change and the check fails despite the baseline.

With the optional flag ignore-baseline-linenumbers, you can ignore the line numbers of violations:

phparkitect check --ignore-baseline-linenumbers

Warning: When ignoring line numbers, phparkitect can no longer discover if a rule is violated additional times in the same file.

Configuration

Example of configuration file phparkitect.php

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

use Arkitect\ClassSet;
use Arkitect\CLI\Config;
use Arkitect\Expression\ForClasses\HaveNameMatching;
use Arkitect\Expression\ForClasses\NotHaveDependencyOutsideNamespace;
use Arkitect\Expression\ForClasses\ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces;
use Arkitect\Rules\Rule;

return static function (Config $config): void {
    $mvcClassSet = ClassSet::fromDir(__DIR__.'/mvc');

    $rules = [];

    $rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
        ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
        ->should(new HaveNameMatching('*Controller'))
        ->because('we want uniform naming');

    $rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
        ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Domain'))
        ->should(new NotHaveDependencyOutsideNamespace('App\Domain'))
        ->because('we want protect our domain');

    $config
        ->add($mvcClassSet, ...$rules);
};

PHPArkitect can detect violations also on DocBlocks custom annotations (like @Assert\NotBlank or @Serializer\Expose). If you want to disable this feature you can add this simple configuration:

$config->skipParsingCustomAnnotations();

Available rules

Hint: If you want to test how a Rule work, you can use the command like phparkitect debug:expression <RuleName> <arguments> to check which class satisfy the rule in your current folder.

For example: phparkitect debug:expression ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces App

Currently, you can check if a class:

Depends on a namespace

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Domain'))
    ->should(new DependsOnlyOnTheseNamespaces('App\Domain', 'Ramsey\Uuid'))
    ->because('we want to protect our domain from external dependencies except for Ramsey\Uuid');

Doc block contains a string

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Domain\Events'))
    ->should(new ContainDocBlockLike('@psalm-immutable'))
    ->because('we want to enforce immutability');

Doc block not contains a string

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
    ->should(new NotContainDocBlockLike('@psalm-immutable'))
    ->because('we don\'t want to enforce immutability');

Extend another class

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
    ->should(new Extend('App\Controller\AbstractController'))
    ->because('we want to be sure that all controllers extend AbstractController');

You can add multiple parameters, the violation will happen when none of them match

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
    ->should(new HaveAttribute('AsController'))

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Service'))
    ->should(new HaveNameMatching('*Service'))
    ->because('we want uniform naming for services');

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Customer\Service'))

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Domain\Aggregates'))
    ->should(new IsFinal())

Not extend another class

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller\Admin'))
    ->should(new NotExtend('App\Controller\AbstractController'))
    ->because('we want to be sure that all admin controllers not extend AbstractController for security reasons');

You can add multiple parameters, the violation will happen when one of them match

Don't have dependency outside a namespace

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Domain'))
    ->should(new NotHaveDependencyOutsideNamespace('App\Domain', ['Ramsey\Uuid'], true))
    ->because('we want protect our domain except for Ramsey\Uuid');

Not have a name matching a pattern

    ->should(new NotHaveNameMatching('*Manager'))
    ->because('*Manager is too vague in naming classes');

Reside in a namespace

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new HaveNameMatching('*Handler'))
    ->should(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Application'))

Not reside in a namespace

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->that(new Extend('App\Domain\Event'))
    ->should(new NotResideInTheseNamespaces('App\Application', 'App\Infrastructure'))
    ->because('we want to be sure that all events not reside in wrong layers');

You can also define components and ensure that a component:

  • should not depend on any component
  • may depend on specific components
  • may depend on any component

Check out this demo project to get an idea on how write rules.

Rule Builders

PHPArkitect offers some builders that enable you to implement more readable rules for specific contexts.

Component Architecture Rule Builder

Thanks to this builder you can define components and enforce dependency constraints between them in a more readable fashion.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Arkitect\ClassSet;
use Arkitect\CLI\Config;
use Arkitect\Expression\ForClasses\HaveNameMatching;
use Arkitect\Expression\ForClasses\ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces;
use Arkitect\RuleBuilders\Architecture\Architecture;
use Arkitect\Rules\Rule;

return static function (Config $config): void {
    $classSet = ClassSet::fromDir(__DIR__.'/src');

    $layeredArchitectureRules = Architecture::withComponents()
        ->component('Controller')->definedBy('App\Controller\*')
        ->component('Service')->definedBy('App\Service\*')
        ->component('Repository')->definedBy('App\Repository\*')
        ->component('Entity')->definedBy('App\Entity\*')
        ->component('Domain')->definedBy('App\Domain\*')

        ->where('Controller')->mayDependOnComponents('Service', 'Entity')
        ->where('Service')->mayDependOnComponents('Repository', 'Entity')
        ->where('Repository')->mayDependOnComponents('Entity')
        ->where('Entity')->shouldNotDependOnAnyComponent()
        ->where('Domain')->shouldOnlyDependOnComponents('Domain')

        ->rules();
        
    // Other rule definitions...

    $config->add($classSet, $serviceNamingRule, $repositoryNamingRule, ...$layeredArchitectureRules);
};

Excluding classes when parser run

If you want to exclude some classes from the parser you can use the except function inside your config file like this:

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->except('App\Controller\FolderController\*')
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
    ->should(new HaveNameMatching('*Controller'))
    ->because('we want uniform naming');

You can use wildcards or the exact name of a class.

Optional parameters and options

You can add parameters when you launch the tool. At the moment you can add these parameters and options:

  • -v : with this option you launch Arkitect with the verbose mode to see every parsed file
  • --config: with this parameter, you can specify your config file instead of the default. like this:
phparkitect check --config=/project/yourConfigFile.php
  • --target-php-version: With this parameter, you can specify which PHP version should use the parser. This can be useful to debug problems and to understand if there are problems with a different PHP version. Supported PHP versions are: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2
  • --stop-on-failure: With this option the process will end immediately after the first violation.

Run only a specific rule

For some reasons, you might want to run only a specific rule, you can do it using runOnlyThis like this:

$rules[] = Rule::allClasses()
    ->except('App\Controller\FolderController\*')
    ->that(new ResideInOneOfTheseNamespaces('App\Controller'))
    ->should(new HaveNameMatching('*Controller'))
    ->because('we want uniform naming')
    ->runOnlyThis();

Integrations

Laravel

If you plan to use Arkitect with Laravel, smortexa wrote a nice wrapper with some predefined rules for laravel: https://github.com/smortexa/laravel-arkitect
