Introduction
============

[](#introduction)

Code Stencil provides an elegant, easy to read pattern that is great for generating stub files, and will streamline your code generation tasks. A common occurrence with code generation is that readability and maintenance suffer, but with Code Stencil, it's a piece of cake!

Create a class
--------------

[](#create-a-class)

```
Stencil::make()
    ->php()
    ->strictTypes()
    ->namespace('App/Models')
    ->curlyStatement('class MyClass', fn(Stencil $s) => $s
        ->line('private OtherClass $otherClass;')
        ->use(OtherClass::class) // This will add a use statement to the file
        ->line()
        ->phpdoc(
            summary: 'Create a new instance of MyClass',
            tags: ['param' => ['OtherClass $class', 'bool $options']]
        )
        ->curlyStatement('function __construct(OtherClass $class, bool $options = false)', fn(Stencil $s) => $s
            ->line('$this->otherClass = $class;')
        )
    )
    ->save('MyClass.php')
```
