Command-Line

The PHP-Prefixer (opens new window) service has a command-line (CLI) that empowers you 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 (opens new window) to submit a project source code, apply the prefixes, wait and download the results.

The PHP-Prefixer CLI is available here: https://github.com/PHP-Prefixer/php-prefixer-cli (opens new window).

How to install the CLI?

You can install the CLI using two ways:

1. How to install the PHAR CLI - Recommended

The preferred installation method is with the PHP Prefixer CLI PHAR. You can download the latest PHAR from the most recent Github Releases (opens new window). 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 - Only For Development

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 (opens new window)

Usage

To use the CLI, you must create an account on PHP-Prefixer (opens new window) 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/ (opens new window)

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 (opens new window) Settings
project-id *	The identification of the configured project on PHP-Prefixer (opens new window) 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
