-----

[](#usage)

To utilize this library make sure you understand how [nikic/PHP-Parser](https://github.com/nikic/PHP-Parser/blob/2.x/doc/2_Usage_of_basic_components.markdown#node-traversation) parses code.

This library contains a set of node visitors to manipulate php code.

#### Group import to individual imports

[](#group-import-to-individual-imports)

Back ports php 7+ syntax code.

```
use Bhittani\PhpParser\GroupToSingleImportsVisitor;

$traverser->addVisitor(new GroupToSingleImportsVisitor);
```

> which will convert

```
use Grouped\Imports\{Acme, Foo\Bar}
```

> into

```
use Grouped\Imports\Acme;
use Grouped\Imports\Foo\Bar;
```

#### Splat calls to call\_user\_func\_array

[](#splat-calls-to-call_user_func_array)

Back ports php 5.6+ syntax code.

```
use Bhittani\PhpParser\SplatToCallUserFuncArrayVisitor;

$traverser->addVisitor(new SplatToCallUserFuncArrayVisitor);
```

> which will convert

```
$val = my_func($a, 'b', ...$params);
```

> into

```
$val = call_user_func_array('my_func', array_merge(array(
    $a, 'b'
), $params));
```

#### Class constants to strings

[](#class-constants-to-strings)

Back ports php 5.5+ syntax code.

```
use Bhittani\PhpParser\ClassConstToStrVisitor;

$traverser->addVisitor(new ClassConstToStrVisitor);
```

> which will convert

```
use Acme\Foo\Bar;

$barClass = Bar::class;
```

> into

```
use Acme\Foo\Bar;

$barClass = 'Acme\Foo\Bar';
```

#### Variadic to func\_get\_args

[](#variadic-to-func_get_args)

Back ports php 5.6+ syntax code.

```
use Bhittani\PhpParser\VariadicToFuncGetArgsVisitor;

$traverser->addVisitor(new VariadicToFuncGetArgsVisitor);
```

> which will convert

```
function my_func($a, $b, ...$params)
{
    // my_func code
}
```

> into

```
function my_func()
{
    $params = func_get_args();
    $a = array_shift($params);
    $b = array_shift($params);

    // my_func code
}
```

#### Remove imports

[](#remove-imports)

Removes all import statements.

```
use Bhittani\PhpParser\RemoveImportsVisitor;

$traverser->addVisitor(new RemoveImportsVisitor);
```

> which will remove all `use` statements.

#### Append suffix

[](#append-suffix)

Appends a suffix to all imports, classes, traits, and interfaces.

```
use Bhittani\PhpParser\AppendSuffixVisitor;

$traverser->addVisitor(new AppendSuffixVisitor('_1'));
```

> which will convert

```
