PHPTree AST Generator

Description

An AST generator based on loophp/phptree.

Requirements

• PHP >= 7.1
• A PHP Parser:
  • nikic/php-ast
  • nikic/php-parser
  • microsoft/tolerant-php-parser

Installation

composer require loophp/phptree-ast-generator

Usage

Very basic usage

./path/to/bin/ast generate /path/to/php/file.php

To generate the dot script for Graphviz

./path/to/bin/ast generate src/Command/Generator.php

Use the -c option to generate a fancy export, user-friendly and less verbose.

./path/to/bin/ast generate -c src/Command/Generator.php

To generate an image

./path/to/bin/ast generate -c -t image -f png -d graph.png src/Command/Generator.php

The generator supports 3 PHP parsers:

• nikic/php-ast
• nikic/php-parser
• microsoft/tolerant-php-parser

Use the -p option to change it, default is nikic.

./path/to/bin/ast generate -p microsoft -t image -d graph.svg src/Command/Generator.php

You will find more documentation within the help of the command:

./path/to/bin/ast generate -h
