Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To make the attributes available for your codebase use:

```
composer require dave-liddament/php-language-extensions
```

To use install PHPStan extension use:

```
composer require --dev dave-liddament/phpstan-php-language-extensions
```

If you are using [phpstan/extension-installer](https://github.com/phpstan/extension-installer) you're ready to go (but you might want to check out the configuration options)

 Manual installationIf you don't want to use `phpstan/extension-installer`, include rules.neon in your project's PHPStan config:

```
includes:
    - vendor/dave-liddament/phpstan-php-language-extensions/extension.neon

```

### Configuring

[](#configuring)

Some attributes, e.g. `#[package]`, might make testing difficult. It is possible to disable the checks for test code in one of two ways:

#### Exclude checks on class names ending with Test:

[](#exclude-checks-on-class-names-ending-with-test)

To exclude any checks from classes that where the name ends with `Test` add the following to the parameters section of your `phpstan.neon` file:

```
parameters:
  phpLanguageExtensions:
    mode: className
```

#### Exclude checks based on test namespace

[](#exclude-checks-based-on-test-namespace)

To exclude any checks from classes that are in the test namespace (e.g. `Acme\Test`) add the following to the parameters section of your `phpstan.neon` file:

```
parameters:
  phpLanguageExtensions:
    mode: namespace
    testNamespace: 'Acme\Test'
```
