phpDocumentor

What is phpDocumentor?

phpDocumentor is an application that is capable of analyzing your PHP source code and
DocBlock comments to generate a complete set of API Documentation.

Inspired by phpDocumentor 1 and JavaDoc it continues to innovate and is up to date
with the latest technologies and PHP language features.

phpDocumentor v2 (stable)

The current stable version of phpDocumentor is v2.9, which can be used to generate documentation for PHP
applications up to PHP version 7.0. phpDocumentor is an old tool that doesn't support all 7.0 introduced features.
It will not process any scalar type hints and requires docblock tags to generate API documentation.
If your application/library is using PHP 7.0 or lower consult our v2 branch for installation instructions
and detailed information about how to use phpDocumentor.

phpDocumentor v3 (under development)

Note:
The phpDocumentor team is currently working on a new phpDocumentor generation. It will have full support for the
latest features in PHP, so you can take advantage of all native type hints. v3 is still under development
and is not stable enough to use in a daily development flow.

Nightly builds

Phpdocumentor doesn't have a nightly release. However, during each pipeline a [phar] artifact is built. If you want
to test the bleeding edge version of phpDocumentor, have a look in the actions section of this repository.
Each successful QA workflow has a download at the right upper corner.

Installation

phpDocumentor requires PHP 7.2 or higher to run. However, code of lower PHP versions can be analyzed.

All templates provided with phpDocumentor have support for Class diagrams based on the read code base. This will
require the application Graphviz to be installed on the machine running phpDocumentor. Rendering the class diagrams
using Graphviz is optional, and warnings about missing Graphviz can be ignored. However, your documentation will
contain some dead links in this case.

There are 3 ways to install phpDocumentor:

  1. Using phive (recommended)
  2. Using the PHAR (manual install)
  3. Via Docker
  4. Via Composer

Using Phive

$ phive install --force-accept-unsigned phpDocumentor

For more information about phive have a look at their website.
Now you have phpDocumentor installed and it can be executed directly.

php tools/phpDocumentor

Using the PHAR

  1. Download the phar file from https://github.com/phpDocumentor/phpDocumentor/releases
  2. You can execute the phar like this: php phpDocumentor.phar

Via docker

  1. $ docker pull phpdoc/phpdoc
  2. $ docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/data phpdoc/phpdoc
  1. phpDocumentor is available on Packagist.

  2. It can be installed as a dependency of your project by running

     $ composer require --dev phpdocumentor/phpdocumentor dev-master
    

Afterwards you are able to run phpDocumentor directly from your vendor directory:

$ php vendor/bin/phpdoc

Please note that we are not able to be compatible with all types of setups. In
some situations, phpDocumentor will block updates of other packages. We do not recommend
using composer to install phpDocumentor.

PEAR

Starting from phpDocumentor v3 we decided to drop PEAR support due to declining use. We will provide the
already released versions of phpDocumentor v2, but these versions will be community maintained so that
the team can focus on phpDocumentor 3.

How to use phpDocumentor?

The easiest way to run phpDocumentor is by running the following command:

$ phpdoc run -d <SOURCE_DIRECTORY> -t <TARGET_DIRECTORY>

This command will parse the source code provided using the -d argument and
output it to the folder indicated by the -t argument.

phpDocumentor supports a whole range of options to configure the output of your documentation.
You can execute the following command, or check our website, for a more detailed listing of available command-line options.

$ phpdoc run -h

Configuration file(s)

phpDocumentor also supports the use of configuration files (named phpdoc.xml or phpdoc.dist.xml by default).
Please consult the documentation to see the format and supported options.

Documentation

For more detailed information you can check our online documentation at https://docs.phpdoc.org.

Features

phpDocumentor supports the following:

  • PHP 7.0 compatible, full support for Namespaces, Closures and more is provided.
  • Shows any tag, some tags add additional functionality to phpDocumentor (such as @link).
  • Processing speed, Zend Framework experienced a significant reduction in processing time compared to phpDocumentor 1.
  • Low memory usage, peak memory usage for small projects is less than 20MB, medium projects 40MB and large frameworks 100MB.
  • Incremental parsing, if you kept the Structure file from a previous run you get an additional performance boost of up
    to 80% on top of the mentioned processing speed above.
  • Easy template building, if you want to make a branding you only have to call 1 task and edit 3 files.
  • Command-line compatibility with phpDocumentor 1, phpDocumentor 2 is an application in its own right but the
    basic phpDocumentor 1 arguments, such as --directory, --file and --target, have been adopted.
  • Two-step process, phpDocumentor first generates a cache with your application structure before creating the output.
    If you'd like you can use that to power your own tools or formatters!

Please note that phpDocumentor 3 is still under development. We will add all features needed to have full support
for PHP 7.0 and higher.
