Doobie (*"do by"*) allows `@todo` annotations to be extended with metadata to specify by which event the described action must have been taken.

Doobie was inspired by [andyw8/do\_by](https://github.com/andyw8/do_by), which is specific to Ruby.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Any `@todo` annotation can contain a Doobie marker that is formatted like `[doobie:type:expected_value]`, where `type` is the type of constraint that must be checked (such as `php-version` or `datetime`), and `expected_value` is the value the constraint type must have for the marker to become expired.

php-version
-----------

[](#php-version)

This built-in constraint type compares the expected and actual PHP versions. Use like `[doobie:php-version:>=5.5]`.

datetime
--------

[](#datetime)

This built-in constraint type compares the expected and actual dates and times. Use like `[doobie:datetime:2014-05-20 00:00 +0]`

PHPUnit
-------

[](#phpunit)

In order to test all markers through PHPUnit, write a test case that instantiates one or more file finders (`\BartFeenstra\Doobie\FileFinder\FileFinderInterface`), parsers (`\BartFeenstra\Doobie\Parser\ParserInterface`), and constraint evaluators (`\BartFeenstra\Doobie\Constraint\ConstriantEvaluatorInterface`). The test case can then use `\BartFeenstra\Doobie\PhpUnit\AssertTrait` and `$this->assertDoobieMarkers($file_finders, $parsers, $constraint_evaluators)`to trigger test failures for expires markers.
