Configuration and Terminology
-----------------------------

[](#configuration-and-terminology)

The module is configured via `config/modules/ide-helper.php` file.

The config has 3 sections: `writers`, `locators`, `scopes`.

[VIEW CONFIG FILE](resources/config.php)

`locators` section includes any Locators used by the module. Locator is a class that responsible for searching classes and it's \[magic\] members.

`writers` section includes any Writers used by the modules. Writers are responsible to write the stuff collected by locators to some destination.

Both locators and writers must be represented by associated array, where the key is any human reasonable name for locator or writer and the value is class string or `\Spiral\Core\Container\Autowire` instance (can be obtained by `bind` method).

`scopes` section is also associated array, where the keys is any human reasonable name for the scope and the value is scope definition. Scope definition consists of number of locators and writers to execute, just check config above to understand the syntax. Each scope is executed independently.

The package includes following locators and writers:

- `BindingsLocator` — find short bindings (SharedTrait)
- `ContainersLocator` — find container and it's bindings
- `DocumentsLocator` — find documents and it's fields
- `RecordsLocator` — find records and it's fields
- `FilePerClassWriter` — write every class to it's own file
- `SingleFileWriter` — write everything to one file

Extending
---------

[](#extending)

### Custom Locators

[](#custom-locators)

To create your own locator you must implement `\Spiral\IdeHelper\Locators\LocatorInerface`:

```
interface LocatorInterface
{
    /**
     * @return ClassDefinition[]
     */
    public function locate(): array;
}
```

and then register it in configuration file.

### Custom Writers

[](#custom-writers)

Same as custom locator but `\Spiral\IdeHelper\Writers\WriterInterface` interface:

```
interface WriterInterface
{
    /**
     * @param ClassDefinition[] $classes
     */
    public function write(array $classes);
}
```

`FilePerClassWriter` and `SingleFileWriter` are using `\Spiral\IdeHelper\Rendere\RendererInterface`for rendering content, so if you want only to change the way files are looks like you can create your own implementation.

```
interface RendererInterface
{
    /**
     * @param ClassDefinition[] $classes
     * @return string
     */
    public function render(array $classes): string;
}
```
