symfony_pseudocode

Version: 3.0.11

wexample/symfony-pseudocode is a Symfony bundle that turns a project's PHP classes into YAML pseudocode: php bin/console pseudocode:generate:pseudocode src walks the Entity and Repository sub-directories of the given source and writes one .yml file per class, listing its properties and methods with their types and descriptions. It wraps the framework-agnostic wexample/php-pseudocode generator in Symfony plumbing — a bundle, a configurable output_dir, and additional_sources directories scanned alongside the application's own code. It is aimed at developers who need a compact, machine-readable summary of a Symfony codebase rather than the code itself.

Architecture

The package is a Symfony bundle wrapped around the framework-agnostic generator from wexample/php-pseudocode. Everything it owns lives under src/, autoloaded as Wexample\SymfonyPseudocode\ (PSR-4, declared in composer.json). Roughly: two console commands call one service, the service fans out to processors, and each processor hands files to a generator that comes from the upstream package.

The bundle and its container extension

src/WexampleSymfonyPseudocodeBundle.php is an empty subclass of Wexample\SymfonyHelpers\Class\AbstractBundle; all the wiring happens in src/DependencyInjection/WexampleSymfonyPseudocodeExtension.php, whose load() does three things:

1. Publishes wexample_symfony_pseudocode.output_dir from the config tree in src/DependencyInjection/Configuration.php (default pseudocode, cannotBeEmpty()).

2. Walks kernel.bundles and collects extra source directories from every registered bundle whose class implements src/Interface/PseudocodeBundleInterface.php:

   Those paths are merged ahead of the additional_sources configured by the application and published as wexample_symfony_pseudocode.additional_sources. This is the extension point of the package: a sibling bundle that wants its own classes scanned implements getPseudocodeSourcePaths(): array and needs no other change here.

3. Loads src/Resources/config/services.yaml through AbstractWexampleSymfonyExtension::loadConfig().

The service file registers only Command and Service, and binds the two parameters by argument name:

Processors and generators are not services — PseudocodeService instantiates them with new in its constructor.

Commands

src/Command/AbstractPseudocodeGenerateCommand.php extends AbstractBundleCommand and fixes the group with getCommandPrefixGroup(): 'pseudocode:generate'. Command names are derived, not declared: AbstractCommand::buildDefaultName() appends the kebab-cased class short name minus the Command suffix. So src/Command/PseudocodeCommand.php becomes pseudocode:generate:pseudocode and src/Command/CodeCommand.php becomes pseudocode:generate:code. Renaming a command class renames the CLI command.

The abstract class contributes the optional pseudocode-dir argument. PseudocodeCommand adds the optional source-path argument and the --recursive / -r flag, then resolves defaults and delegates:

source-path defaults to src. Both are made absolute against $this->kernel->getProjectDir() before the service is called, and the command then only prints the counts returned to it.

CodeCommand — the reverse direction, pseudocode back to code — is a stub: it echoes the argument and writes TODO: Implement project conversion to pseudocode. SymfonyCodeGenerator exists and is passed to every processor, but nothing calls it yet.

PseudocodeService

src/Service/PseudocodeService.php is the only service. Its constructor builds the object graph once:

The inheritance resolver works by reflection, so a class must be autoloadable for its parents to be resolved. The processor list is a hard-coded array of class names — EntityProcessor::class, RepositoryProcessor::class — each constructed with both generators and keyed by class name.

process(string $pseudocodeDir, string $sourcePath, bool $recursive) returns array{scanned: int, generated: string[]} and splits on what $sourcePath is:

• A file — processFile() skips anything not ending in .php, then calls generateFromFileAndSave() directly. Processors and additionalSources are bypassed entirely on this branch.
• A directory — the path becomes the first entry of $sourcePaths, then every configured additional source is resolved against the project dir and appended if is_dir(). Each path is then run through every processor, and the scanned counts and generated file lists are accumulated.

Processors

src/Processor/AbstractProcessor.php carries all the logic; a concrete processor is a pair of one-line methods. src/Processor/EntityProcessor.php returns 'Entity' from getSourceSubDirectory(), src/Processor/RepositoryProcessor.php returns 'Repository'. That subdirectory is appended to the source path given by the caller, so src is scanned as src/Entity and src/Repository — the processors define which parts of a Symfony project are covered, and adding a third kind of class means adding a third subclass to the array in PseudocodeService.

process() builds a Symfony\Component\Finder\Finder, filters on getFilePattern() (*.php, overridable), and applies $finder->depth('== 0') unless $recursive — recursion is off by default. Note that Finder::in() throws DirectoryNotFoundException when the directory is absent, so a source path without an Entity/ subdirectory aborts the run rather than being skipped.

Each matched file goes to the generator with the code directory as the base for the relative output path:

The generator returning a falsy value means no file was written; only truthy returns are collected into generated. getProcessorName() is abstract and implemented by both subclasses, but nothing under src/ calls it.

Generators and the config registry

The two generators are subclasses that add no methods of their own. src/Generator/SymfonyPseudocodeGenerator.php extends Wexample\Pseudocode\Generator\PseudocodeGenerator and src/Generator/SymfonyCodeGenerator.php extends CodeGenerator; both do nothing but use WithSymfonyConfigRegistry;.

That trait, in src/Common/Traits/WithSymfonyConfigRegistry.php, is the whole specialisation mechanism: it reuses the upstream WithConfigRegistry and redirects one method.

src/Common/SymfonyConfigRegistry.php is an empty extension of Wexample\Pseudocode\Common\ConfigRegistry. It is the seam where Symfony-specific parsing or rendering configuration is meant to go; today it inherits everything and overrides nothing, which is why the pseudocode this bundle produces is identical to the upstream package's output.

The path of a generation run

php bin/console pseudocode:generate:pseudocode src → PseudocodeCommand::execute() resolves src and the output dir against the project dir → PseudocodeService::process() sees a directory, appends the additional sources from bundles and config → for each path, EntityProcessor then RepositoryProcessor run Finder over <path>/Entity and <path>/Repository → each SplFileInfo goes to SymfonyPseudocodeGenerator::generateFromFileAndSave(), which parses with a ReflectionInheritanceResolver and writes one YAML file under the output dir → the paths bubble back up as generated and the command prints them one per line.

Tests

phpunit.xml bootstraps vendor/autoload.php and declares a single suite over the tests directory. That directory is not currently present in the repository.
