Zero dependencies. Runs anywhere. What are killer features? ------------------------- [](#what-are-killer-features) - install anywhere - PHP 7.2? PHPUnit 6? Symfony 3? Not a problem, this package **has zero dependencies and works on PHP 7.2+** - get quick overview of your project size - no details, no complexity, just lines of code - get easy **JSON output** for further processing - measure **used PHP features in your project** - how much PHP 8.0-features used? How many attributes? How many arrow function? How many union types? Install ------- [](#install) The package is scoped and downgraded to PHP 7.2. So you can install it anywhere with any set of dependencies: ``` composer require tomasvotruba/lines --dev ``` 1. Measure Lines and Size ------------------------- [](#1-measure-lines-and-size) ``` vendor/bin/lines measure ``` By default, we measure the root directory. To narrow it down, provide explicit path: ``` vendor/bin/lines measure src ``` For short output: ``` vendor/bin/lines measure --short ``` For json output, just add `--json`: ``` vendor/bin/lines measure --json ``` Also, you can combine them (very handy for blog posts and tweets): ``` vendor/bin/lines measure --short --json ``` For the text output, you'll get data like these: ``` Filesystem count Directories ......................................... 32 Files .............................................. 160 Lines of code count / relative Code ................................... 15 521 / 70.9 % Comments ................................ 6 372 / 29.1 % Total .................................. 21 893 / 100 % Structure count Namespaces .......................................... 32 Classes ............................................ 134 * Constants ........................................ 91 * Methods ....................................... 1 114 Interfaces .......................................... 20 Traits ............................................... 4 Enums ................................................ 1 Functions ........................................... 36 Global constants ..................................... 0 Methods count / relative Non-static .............................. 1 058 / 95 % Static ..................................... 56 / 5 % Public .................................... 875 / 78.5 % Protected .................................. 90 / 8.1 % Private ................................... 149 / 13.4 % ``` Or in a json format: ``` { "filesystem": { "directories": 10, "files": 15 }, "lines_of_code": { "code": 1064, "code_relative": 95.4, "comments": 51, "comments_relative": 4.6, "total": 1115 }, "structure": { "namespaces": 11, "classes": 14, "class_methods": 88, "class_constants": 0, "interfaces": 1, "traits": 0, "enums": 0, "functions": 5, "global_constants": 3 }, "methods_access": { "non_static": 82, "non_static_relative": 93.2, "static": 6, "static_relative": 6.8 }, "methods_visibility": { "public": 70, "public_relative": 79.5, "protected": 2, "protected_relative": 2.3, "private": 16, "private_relative": 18.2 } } ``` ### Longest files [](#longest-files) Are you looking for top 10 longest files? ``` vendor/bin/lines measure --longest ``` ``` Longest files line count src/Measurements.php ............................... 320 src/Console/OutputFormatter/TextOutputFormatter.php 136 src/NodeVisitor/StructureNodeVisitor.php ........... 124 src/Console/Command/MeasureCommand.php .............. 98 src/Analyser.php .................................... 92 ``` ### Scan package in `/vendor` [](#scan-package-in-vendor) This tool measures *your code*, not the 3rd party libraries. It skips `/vendor` directory by default to avoid false positives. If you want to measure vendor files too, use `--allow-vendor` option: ``` vendor/bin/lines measure vendor/rector/rector --allow-vendor ``` 2. PHP Feature Counter ---------------------- [](#2-php-feature-counter) Two codebases using PHP 8.4 in `composer.json`, are not the same codebases. One has zero type param/return/property declarations, other has promoted properties. Reveal their real value by counting PHP feature they actually use. ``` vendor/bin/lines features src ``` For json output, just add `--json`: ``` vendor/bin/lines features src --json ``` This command: - scans your codebase, - count PHP feature being used from which PHP version, - gives you quick overview of how modern the codebase really is For the text output, you'll get data like these: ``` PHP features ============ ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ PHP version PHP Feature Count ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 7.0 Parameter types 2 793 7.0 Return types 1 736 7.0 Strict declares 492 7.0 Space ship operator 0 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 7.1 Nullable type (?type) 333 7.1 Void return type 317 7.1 Class constant visibility 557 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 7.2 Object type 14 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 7.3 Coalesce ?? operator 69 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 7.4 Typed properties 156 7.4 Arrow functions 38 7.4 Coalesce assign (??=) 0 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 8.0 Named arguments 10 8.0 Union types 147 8.0 Match expression 1 8.0 Nullsafe method call/property fetch 0 8.0 Attributes 0 8.0 Throw expression 111 8.0 Promoted properties 596 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 8.1 First-class callables 8 8.1 Readonly property 3 8.1 Intersection types 0 8.1 Enums 0 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 8.2 Readonly class 182 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 8.3 Typed class constants 0 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ 8.4 Property hooks 0 ------------- ----------------------------------------------- ------------ ``` Or in a json format: ``` { "7.0": [ { "name": "Parameter types", "count": 122 }, { "name": "Return types", "count": 143 }, { "name": "Strict declares", "count": 31 }, { "name": "Space ship operator ", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Coalesce ?? operator", "count": 1 } ], "7.1": [ { "name": "Nullable type (?type)", "count": 5 }, { "name": "Void return type", "count": 48 }, { "name": "Class constant visibility", "count": 15 } ], "7.2": [ { "name": "Object type", "count": 3 } ], "7.4": [ { "name": "Typed properties", "count": 26 }, { "name": "Arrow functions", "count": 25 }, { "name": "Coalesce assign (??=)", "count": 0 } ], "8.0": [ { "name": "Named arguments", "count": 14 }, { "name": "Union types", "count": 5 }, { "name": "Match expression", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Nullsafe method call\/property fetch", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Attributes", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Throw expression", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Promoted properties", "count": 30 } ], "8.1": [ { "name": "First-class callables", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Readonly property", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Intersection types", "count": 0 }, { "name": "Enums", "count": 1 } ], "8.2": [ { "name": "Readonly class", "count": 6 } ], "8.3": [ { "name": "Typed class constants", "count": 9 } ], "8.4": [ { "name": "Property hooks", "count": 0 } ] } ``` That's it.
