Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.

  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.

Informations about the package cognitive-code-analysis

Cognitive Complexity Analysis

Cognitive Code Analysis is an approach to understanding and improving code by focusing on how human cognition interacts with code. It emphasizes making code more readable, understandable, and maintainable by considering the cognitive processes of the developers who write and work with the code.

"Human short-term or working memory was estimated to be limited to 7 ± 2 variables in the 1950s. A more current estimate is 4 ± 1 constructs. Decision quality generally becomes degraded once this limit of four constructs is exceeded."

Running it

Cognitive Complexity Analysis

Generate a report, supported types are json, csv, html.

You can also pass a baseline file to compare the results to. The JSON report is used as baseline. The output will now show a delta if a value was changed.

Finding Hotspots

Churn is a measure of how much code has changed over time. It helps to find the most changed and complex areas in your codebase, which are often the most error-prone and difficult to maintain. Read the Churn - Finding Hotspots documentation for more details.

Note that this requires a version control system (VCS) to be set up, such as Git.
