Entity Generator
================

[](#entity-generator)

The **Entity Generator** is a tool designed to streamline the conversion of payloads into class entities for PHP applications running on PHP 7 and beyond. The generated entities adhere to the PSR-12 coding standards, ensuring a clean and consistent codebase.

This tool is particularly valuable for swiftly transforming payloads into Data Transfer Objects (DTOs), enhancing your PHP application's flexibility and efficiency.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- **PHP 8.2** or higher

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To leverage the **Entity Generator**, use the following command:

### Using Json file

[](#using-json-file)

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [Payload] --f
```

### Using Json string

[](#using-json-string)

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [Json] "json"
```

Or simply

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [Json]
```

Example:

```
./phpgen generate User '{"id": 1, "label": "john"}'
```

### Using XML file

[](#using-xml-file)

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [filepath] "xml" -f
```

### Using XML string

[](#using-xml-string)

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [XML] "xml"
```

### Using Yaml file

[](#using-yaml-file)

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [filepath] "xml" -f
```

Configuration file
------------------

[](#configuration-file)

You can use customized entity generation options using a configuration a below,

```
#config.yaml.dist
entity.generator:
    output.dir: 'var/generated'
    namespace: 'Entity\Generated'
    property.phpdoc: true
    property.type: true # false before php7.4
```

```
./phpgen generate [EntityName] [filepath] "xml" -f -c path/to/config.yaml.dist
```

If config file is not configured, default options `(config.yaml.dist)` will be used.
