PHP Prefixer CLI

A command-line for the PHP-Prefixer service.

Blog post announcement: New PHP-Prefixer CLI: Prefix from the Terminal

The PHP-Prefixer service has a command-line (CLI) to use the service locally and process the project source code from your workstation.

The command calls the PHP-Prefixer service using the REST API to submit a project source code, apply the prefixes, wait and download the results.

PHP-Prefixer is a cloud service to apply PHP prefixes to namespaces, functions, helpers, traits, interfaces, etc. Start with a Composer project and a set of dependencies, and prefix all library files at once to generate a consistent prefixed codebase.

Given this sample class declaration:

namespace Carbon;

use Carbon\Exceptions\InvalidDateException;
use DateInterval;
use Symfony\Component\Translation;

class Carbon extends DateTime
{
    const NO_ZERO_DIFF = 01;
...

The associated prefixed class declaration, with a new and distinct namespace ACME:

namespace ACME\Carbon;

use ACME\Carbon\Exceptions\InvalidDateException;
use DateInterval;
use ACME\Symfony\Component\Translation;

class Carbon extends DateTime
{
    const NO_ZERO_DIFF = 01;
...

How to install the CLI?

You can install the CLI using two ways:

1. How to install the PHAR CLI

The preferred installation method is with the PHP Prefixer CLI PHAR. You can download the latest PHAR from the most recent Github Releases. After downloading it, copy the file into a directory on your local path and assign the execution permissions to run the following commands.

2. Install via Composer

Alternatively, you can install PHP-Prefixer CLI globally with Composer:

composer global require php-prefixer/php-prefixer-cli

The source code is available here: https://github.com/PHP-Prefixer/php-prefixer-cli

Usage

To use the CLI, you must create an account on PHP-Prefixer and prepare your projects with the prefix definition in the composer.json schema.

Before using the command-line, we recommend checking the documentation and guides here: https://php-prefixer.com/docs/

The CLI requires four parameters to function, and it can receive an additional parameter for GitHub integration:

Parameter	Description
source-directory *	The project source directory
target-directory *	The target directory where the results are stored
personal-access-token*	The personal access token, generated on PHP-Prefixer Settings
project-id *	The identification of the configured project on PHP-Prefixer Projects
--github-access-token	An optional GitHub token to access ´composer.json´ dependencies that are managed in private repositories

# Sample command-line
./php-prefixer-cli prefix \
\
    /sample/acme_project \
\
    /output/prefixed_project \
\
    "789|1234567890123456789012345678901234567890" \
\
    123456 \
\
    --github-access-token=1234567890123456789012345678901234567890

Environment Variables

The CLI supports the definition of the parameters as environment variables in a project .env file.

# Personal Access Token: The personal access token, generated on PHP-Prefixer Settings
PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="789|1234567890123456789012345678901234567890"

# Project ID: The identification of the configured project on PHP-Prefixer Projects
