===================================================================================================================================================================================

[](#-ai-phpdocs)

AI PHPDocs is a tool that uses GPT-3 to automatically add missing PHPDoc comments to your PHP code.

Demo video:

Example output:

Prerequisites
-------------

[](#prerequisites)

This package uses the OpenAI API. Before using AI PHPDocs, you will need to have an OpenAI API key set as an environment variable.

```
export OPENAI_KEY=...
```

You can get an API key at

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

[](#installation)

To install AI PHPDocs, run the following command:

```
composer global require molbal/ai-phpdoc
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To add missing PHPDoc comments to a single file, use the following command:

```
aiphpdocs file  /path/to/file.php
```

To add missing PHPDoc comments to a directory of files, use the following command. By default it iterates through the current directory for all files, but does not go into subdirectories:

```
aiphpdocs dir
```

You may set the `--recursive` flag, or `-r` for short for it to go into subdirectories.

If you pass another variable (regardless of the recursive flag) it will treat it as another directory to sweep through instead of the working directory.

```
aiphpdocs dir -r /somewhere/else
```
