Download the PHP
package web-fu/reflection without Composer
On this page you can find all versions of the php package
web-fu/reflection. It is possible to download/install
these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved
automatically.
After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.
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.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
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.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
This library is a type safe wrapper for PHP Reflection API.
This library is born with the purpose to solve the problem of type safety in PHP Reflection API.
Reflection API is a very powerful tool, but presents some issues.
For example:
the original ReflectionClass::getConstant return false if the constant does not exist or if the constant is equal to false.
ReflectionClass::newInstance return a generic object, but it is possible to know the type of the object.
New interfaces are added to the Reflection API in different PHP versions, so it is not possible to use them in a cross-version way.
Installation
web-fu/reflection is available on Packagist and can be installed
using Composer.
Requires PHP 8.0 or newer.
Usage
This wrapper try to use the same names of the original Reflection API, but with a different namespace.
Type management
PHP Reflection API use different classes to manage types: ReflectionType, ReflectionNamedType and ReflectionUnionType.
I created a single class to manage all types: WebFu\Reflection\ReflectionType.
I added a helper function to infer the PHPDocType, if specified
