The command calls the **PHP-Prefixer** service using the [REST API](https://php-prefixer.com/docs/rest-api-reference/) to submit a project source code, apply the prefixes, wait and download the results. **PHP-Prefixer** is a cloud service to apply PHP prefixes to namespaces, functions, helpers, traits, interfaces, etc. Start with a Composer project and a set of dependencies, and prefix all library files at once to generate a consistent prefixed codebase. Given this sample class declaration: ``` namespace Carbon; use Carbon\Exceptions\InvalidDateException; use DateInterval; use Symfony\Component\Translation; class Carbon extends DateTime { const NO_ZERO_DIFF = 01; ... ``` The associated prefixed class declaration, with a new and distinct namespace `ACME`: ``` namespace ACME\Carbon; use ACME\Carbon\Exceptions\InvalidDateException; use DateInterval; use ACME\Symfony\Component\Translation; class Carbon extends DateTime { const NO_ZERO_DIFF = 01; ... ``` How to install the CLI? ----------------------- [](#how-to-install-the-cli) You can install the CLI using two ways: ### 1. How to install the PHAR CLI [](#1-how-to-install-the-phar-cli) The preferred installation method is with the **PHP Prefixer CLI PHAR**. You can download the latest PHAR from the most recent [Github Releases](https://github.com/PHP-Prefixer/php-prefixer-cli/releases). After downloading it, copy the file into a directory on your local path and assign the execution permissions to run the following commands. ### 2. Install via Composer [](#2-install-via-composer) Alternatively, you can install **PHP-Prefixer CLI** globally with Composer: ``` composer global require php-prefixer/php-prefixer-cli ``` The source code is available here: Usage ----- [](#usage) To use the CLI, you must create an account on [PHP-Prefixer](https://php-prefixer.com/) and prepare your projects with the prefix definition in the `composer.json` schema. Before using the command-line, we recommend checking the documentation and guides here: The CLI requires four parameters to function, and it can receive an additional parameter for GitHub integration: ParameterDescriptionsource-directory \*The project source directorytarget-directory \*The target directory where the results are storedpersonal-access-token\*The personal access token, generated on [PHP-Prefixer](https://php-prefixer.com/) Settingsproject-id \*The identification of the configured project on [PHP-Prefixer](https://php-prefixer.com/) Projects--github-access-tokenAn optional GitHub token to access ´composer.json´ dependencies that are managed in private repositories``` # Sample command-line ./php-prefixer-cli prefix \ \ /sample/acme_project \ \ /output/prefixed_project \ \ "789|1234567890123456789012345678901234567890" \ \ 123456 \ \ --github-access-token=1234567890123456789012345678901234567890 ``` ### Environment Variables [](#environment-variables) The CLI supports the definition of the parameters as environment variables in a project `.env` file. ``` # PHP Prefixer CLI - Sample .env # Note: the .env file must be located in the php-prefixer-cli.phar directory # Source Directory: The project source directory SOURCE_DIRECTORY="/sample/acme_project" # Target Directory: The target directory where the results are stored TARGET_DIRECTORY="/output/prefixed_project" # Personal Access Token: The personal access token, generated on PHP-Prefixer Settings PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="789|1234567890123456789012345678901234567890" # Project ID: The identification of the configured project on PHP-Prefixer Projects PROJECT_ID="123456" # GitHub Access Token: An optional GitHub token to access composer.json dependencies that are managed in private repositories.
