This might include package information, licensing, homepage address etc. ### Apply all at once [](#apply-all-at-once) This tools provides facility to modify class headers in entire project in a safe way - using PHP Tokenizer, so that it will only modify file if it's 100% safe to change it. Hedron helps you make your class headers up to date and consistent. It will apply predefined header to all files containing namespaced class definitions. Instalation ----------- [](#instalation) ``` composer require maslosoft/hedron --dev ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Preview list of files to apply headers ``` vendor/bin/hedron preview ``` Display rendered template ``` vendor/bin/hedron show ``` Apply header to all class files. Backup/commit your project before continue.This will write headers to files. ``` vendor/bin/hedron commit ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Configuration can be provided in yaml file `.hedron.yml` in root of your project. Hedron also uses `composer.json` to make your config easier, or even unnessesary. Here is how config might look like with example values (see `.hedron.example.yml`): ``` # All paths are realtive to your project root # Root path or paths with sources. If blank will use composer.autoload paths. sources: "" # Path to template file, if blank will use vendor/maslosoft/hedron/templates/default.html (no it's not html) template: "" # Filter configuration, by default empty. Below is some example filter. filter: whitelist: include: - app/* exclude: - app/cache/* blacklist: include: - app/controllers/* exclude: - app/cache/CacheProvider.php # Reserved # This contains composer.json as array composer: "" tmp: "" ``` All of this configuration is available in template. Template -------- [](#template) Template uses handlebars as templating engine. It contains all data from `.hedron.yml` and `composer.json`. Here is example, default template: ``` This software package is licensed under {{composer.license}} license. @package {{composer.name}} @licence {{composer.license}} {{#each composer.authors}} @copyright Copyright (c) {{name}} {{/each}} {{#if composer.homepage}}@link {{composer.homepage}}{{/if}} ``` And after rendering it looks like that: ``` /** * This software package is licensed under New BSD license. * * @package maslosoft/hedron * @licence New BSD * * @copyright Copyright (c) Peter Maselkowski * * @link http://maslosoft.com/hedron/ */ ``` Replacing --------- [](#replacing) This script modifies source files en masse. For safety and robustness it uses native php tokenizer and replaces everything before `namespace` token. Only that. If there is no namespace declaration file will not be modified.
