Your Help is Needed to Finish 5.x Release

❤️ We need your help to test new version of ApiGen.

How to install it?

Add to your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "apigen/apigen": "dev-master",
        "roave/better-reflection": "dev-master#c87d856"
    }
}

then update:

composer update

Test it, report issues or send PRs.

💀 Version 4.x is not supported, since there was huge change of Reflection library and the code was almost completely rewritten.

Built on Shoulders of Giants

Install

composer require apigen/apigen --dev

Usage

Generate API docs by passing single source and destination options:

vendor/bin/apigen generate src --destination docs

Or generate API docs for multiple directories:

vendor/bin/apigen generate src tests --destination docs

Configuration

Below is a minimal example configuration. Save it as a apigen.yml file in the root of your project:

parameters:
    visibilityLevels: [public, protected] # array
    annotationGroups: [todo, deprecated] # array
    title: "ApiGen Docs" # string
    baseUrl: "http://apigen.org/api" # string
    overwrite: false # bool

What Annotations Have Extra Care?

@see, @covers, @uses

Reference to Class, Function, Property, Method etc. element.

In Code

/**
 * @see SomeClass
 * @see SomeClass::$propety
 * @see SomeClass::someFunction()
 */

Generated

@see <a href="class-SomeClass.html">SomeClass</a>
@see <a href="class-SomeClass.html#$someProperty">SomeClass::$property</a>
@see <a href="class-SomeClass.html#_someFunction">SomeClass::someFunction()</a>

@link

A website url.

In Code

/**
 * This is already mentioned on Wiki.
 * @link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_we_stand,_divided_we_fall Click to see a cool quote  
 */

Generated

This is already mentioned on Wiki.
@link <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_we_stand,_divided_we_fall">Click to see a cool quote</a> 

@internal

Associated element is internal, so ApiGen hides it.

Themes

To enable a custom theme just provide themeDirectory configuration option in your apigen.yml:

parameters:
    themeDirectory: path/to/theme # path to theme's config file
