Process Builder
===============

[](#process-builder)

Builds command lines for symfony/process using magic methods.

Best suited for use as a [Composer](https://getcomposer.org) library.

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

[](#requirements)

- PHP ≥ 8.0
- [symfony/process](https://github.com/symfony/process) ≥ 5

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

[](#installation)

To add this library to your Composer project:

```
composer require shiyan/process-builder

```

Usage examples
--------------

[](#usage-examples)

Using the `ProcessBuilder` class:

```
use Shiyan\ProcessBuilder\ProcessBuilder;

$ls = new ProcessBuilder(app: 'ls', cwd: '~');
print $ls('-la'); // Prints the command output.

$ls->chDir('../'); // Changes the working directory, not the command argument.
print $ls('-la');

```

Using a class which extends the `BaseProcessBuilder`:

```
use Shiyan\ProcessBuilder\Example\Git;

$git = new Git('/var/www');

if ($git->status('-z') != '') {
  $git->add('--all');
  $git->commit('-m', 'Some changes');
  $git->push('origin', 'master');
}

```

By default, an underlying process runs automatically. This behavior can be changed:

```
use Shiyan\ProcessBuilder\ProcessBuilder;

$ls = new ProcessBuilder('ls');
$ls->setAutoRun(FALSE);
$process = $ls('-la');

```
