PHAB

A Yeoman generator for PHP with the ability to resolve namespaces from a Composer file.

Installation

First make sure you have installed Yeoman. If not, install Yeoman using:

npm install -g yo

Next install the generator using:

npm install -g generator-phab

Usage

To see a list of all the available generators use the following:

yo phab

Specific generators can also be called directly. E.g.:

yo phab:class

Generators

Available generators are listed below. These will by default ask the least amount of questions; to access advanced options use the --advanced option.

• phab:class [<class_name>]

  Creates an empty class.

  The following command will create the class Models\MyModel relative to the working directory:

  yo phab:class Models/MyModel

• phab:interface [<interface_name>]

  Creates an empty interface.

  The following command will create the interface Api\MyInterface relative to the working directory:

  yo phab:interface Api/MyInterface

• phab:callable [<class_name>]

  Creates a callable class using the __invoke() function.

  The following command will create a callable class Controller\MyController relative to the working directory:

  yo phab:callable Controller/MyController

• phab:document [<document_name>]

  Creates an empty document.

  The following command will create document.php relative to the working directory:

  yo phab:document

Opening a File

It is possible to open a generated file using the option -o. This requires the environment variable EDITOR to point to the default editor. E.g.:

EDITOR=$(which code) yo phab:document -o

Composer Support

If a Composer file is found in any of the parent directories generators will use the autoload configuration from this file to resolve the namespace for the location where the command is called and prepend that to a class or interface.

Default values for author and license will also be read from the Composer file.
