The modular concept hands analysis over to [Analyzers](doc/analyzers.md) which report back any possible warnings/errors. Install ------- [](#install) Via [composer](https://getcomposer.org): ``` composer require mfn/php-analyzer 0.0.1 ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) A command line tool is provided: `php_analyzer.php analyze ` See the `--help` switch for more details. What analysis is performed? =========================== [](#what-analysis-is-performed) All files are run through the [nikic/PHP-Parser](https://github.com/nikic/PHP-Parser)and after that an internal graph of the classes/interfaces is built. All analyzers available are run against the sources reports are generated. The following analysis is currently performed: - detection of missing method implementations of abstract classes - detecting of missing method implementations of interfaces - incompatibility of methods declared in interfaces - methods defined abstract on an interface Probably a bit pointless because the php linter detects this. - warns when using dynamic class instantiation, i.e. `new $foo` - warns when encountering empty exception catch blocks Learn more: - [The architecture of the Framework itself](doc/framework.md) - [Documentations of all Analyzers](doc/analyzers.md) - [Default Analyzer configuration](res/defaultAnalyzerConfiguration.php) Graphviz -------- [](#graphviz) The internal [ObjectGraph](lib/Analyzers/ObjectGraph/ObjectGraph.php) lends itself to generate a class relationship diagram for which a graphviz generator exists. This will produce a `.dot` file which can be further used with the [Graphviz](http://www.graphviz.org/) package to generate graphics from it: `php_analyzer.php graphviz yoursource/ > myproject.dot` See `--help` for more options. To convert this to e.g. png the aforementioned graphviz package has to be installed on your system. This includes the `dot` command which can be used to generate a PNG file: `dot -Tpng myproject.dot > myproject.png` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) If you want to use a differnet set of analyzers or you've written your own and want to use them, you can use the `--config ` option. The file is a plain PHP file simply returning an array of analyzers you want to run. See [res/defaultAnalyzerConfiguration.php](res/defaultAnalyzerConfiguration.php)for an example. TODOs / Ideas ============= [](#todos--ideas) - the analyzers depending on the graph have no logic whether they've visited a node already or not; thus visiting the same nodes/methods multiple times - Use `namespacedName` property generated by `\PhpParser\NodeVisitor\NameResolver` - Add support for traits Contribution ============ [](#contribution) - one feature per branch/PR - coding standard is [PSR-2](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/accepted/PSR-2-coding-style-guide.md) © Markus Fischer ### Health Score 24 — LowBetter than 31% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity11 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity49 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
