Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require symplify/skipper
```

Register package in your config:

```
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Loader\Configurator\ContainerConfigurator;
use Symplify\Skipper\ValueObject\SkipperConfig;

return static function (ContainerConfigurator $containerConfigurator): void {
    $containerConfigurator->import(SkipperConfig::FILE_PATH);
};
```

Use
---

[](#use)

### 1. Configure with `Option::SKIP` parameter.

[](#1-configure-with-optionskip-parameter)

```
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Loader\Configurator\ContainerConfigurator;
use Symplify\Skipper\ValueObject\Option;

return static function (ContainerConfigurator $containerConfigurator): void {
    $parameters = $containerConfigurator->parameters();

    $parameters->set(Option::SKIP, [
        // absolute directory
        __DIR__ . '/some-path',

        // absolute file
        __DIR__ . '/some-path/some-file.php',

        // with mask
        '*/Fixture/*',

        // specific class
        SomeClass::class,
    ]);
};
```

Or for rules and paths specific ignores:

```
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Loader\Configurator\ContainerConfigurator;
use Symplify\Skipper\ValueObject\Option;

return static function (ContainerConfigurator $containerConfigurator): void {
    $parameters = $containerConfigurator->parameters();

    $parameters->set(Option::SKIP, [
        // specific class
        SomeClass::class => [__DIR__ . '/src/OnlyHere'],

        // class code in paths
        SomeSniff::class . '.SomeCode' => ['*Sniff.php', '*YamlFileLoader.php'],
    ]);
};
```

### 2. Use `Skipper` service in Your Project

[](#2-use-skipper-service-in-your-project)

You have 3 way to decide, if the *something* should be skipped:

- the element
- the file info
- the element in the file info

```
use Symplify\Skipper\Skipper\Skipper;
use Symplify\SmartFileSystem\SmartFileInfo;

final class SomeClass
{
    /**
     * @var Skipper
     */
    private $skipper;

    public function __construct(Skipper $skipper)
    {
        $this->skipper = $skipper;
    }

    public function run(string|object $element, SmartFileInfo $fileInfo): void
    {
        // 1. skip the element?
        $shouldBeSkipped = $this->skipper->shouldSkipElement($element);

        // 2. skip the file path?
        $shouldBeSkipped = $this->skipper->shouldSkipFileInfo($fileInfo);

        // 3. skip the element in the file path?
        $shouldBeSkipped = $this->skipper->shouldSkipElementAndFileInfo($element, $fileInfo);
    }
}
```
