PhpGists
========

[](#phpgists)

This is a set of PHP functions and tools to help build my PHP projects.

run a phpunit test
==================

[](#run-a-phpunit-test)

You can install phpunit globally with `composer global require phpunit`.

Once it's installed, run something like : `phpunit .\tests\ArrayTest.php` to run the ArrayTest tests for example.

Configure debugging with vscode and xdebug
==========================================

[](#configure-debugging-with-vscode-and-xdebug)

On Windows
----------

[](#on-windows)

- download [xdebug](https://xdebug.org/download.php) and place in your php ext directory (where there are a lot of php\_xxx.dll files)
- in your php.ini add the following lines (you can change the port if you want)

```
zend_extension=[absolute path to your php_xdebug.dll]
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_autostart = 1
xdebug.remote_port=9900
xdebug.remote_log=[choose an absolute path to xdebug.log]

```

To debug a script, no need to use xdebug, just use the default vscode script config

On Linux
--------

[](#on-linux)

- `sudo apt-get install php-xdebug`
- add the following lines in /etc/php/7.x/mods-available/xdebug.ini

```
xdebug.show_error_trace = 1
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_autostart = 1

```

- `sudo service apache2 restart`

How to use XDebug
-----------------

[](#how-to-use-xdebug)

- check that xdebug is ok by running `php -i | grep xdebug`
- in vscode configure xdebug on port 9900 (the one you put in php.ini)

To debug something with xdebug (typically a phpunit test):

- place a breakpoint somewhere
- run the xdebug listener in vscode
- run the command you want like `phpunit ./tests/ArrayTest.php`
- if you want to run only some functions, in the test file, add a `--filter pattern` argument in the phpunit command line

Documentation
=============

[](#documentation)

Install phpDocumentor on Windows
--------------------------------

[](#install-phpdocumentor-on-windows)

- download the phpdoc.phar from the [phpDocumentor website](https://www.phpdoc.org/) and add it to your PATH
- create in the same folder as phpdoc.phar, a phpdoc.cmd with this line : `@php "%~dp0phpdoc.phar" %* `)

Generate the HTML doc
---------------------

[](#generate-the-html-doc)

- cd in the project and run `phpdoc.cmd -d ./src -t ./docs`

Tools
=====

[](#tools)

There are some useful tools to help developping this module for example :

- `php ./tools/main.php create_test Array` to create a new test file to test the functions in file 'Array.php'
