- Programatically modify php files with an intuitive top level read/write API
- Read/write on classes, framework- and language constructs using `FileQueryBuilders` and `AbstractSyntaxTreeQueryBuilders`

Getting started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

```
composer require ajthinking/archetype
```

>

That's it! Check out introduction of concepts below or review the [API examples](docs.md)

`PHPFile` read/write API
------------------------

[](#phpfile-readwrite-api)

```
use Archetype\Facades\PHPFile;

// Create new files
PHPFile::make()->class(\Acme\Product::class)
    ->use('Shippable')
    ->public()->property('stock', -1)
    ->save();
```

```
// Modify existing files
PHPFile::load(\App\Models\User::class)
    ->className('NewClassName')
    ->save();
```

`LaravelFile` read/write API
----------------------------

[](#laravelfile-readwrite-api)

```
use Archetype\Facades\LaravelFile; // extends PHPFile

// Expanding on our User model
LaravelFile::user()
    ->add()->use(['App\Traits\Dumpable', 'App\Contracts\PlayerInterface'])
    ->add()->implements('PlayerInterface')
    ->table('gdpr_users')
    ->add()->fillable('nickname')
    ->remove()->hidden()
    ->empty()->casts()
    ->hasMany('App\Game')
    ->belongsTo('App\Guild')
    ->save()
    ->render();
```
