ede-php-autoload

Description

This project simulates PHP autoloading system to use it in Semantic. It is composed of 3 parts:

• An EDE project, ede-php-autoload, that defines autoloading configuration for a project. It is able to parse composer.json files to extract autoloading information from it
• A SemanticDB backend that can find a tag by name using the autoload information of the current ede-php-autoload project
• A minor mode, ede-php-autoload-mode, that enables the SemanticDB backend for a buffer.

Defining autoloads for a project

Let’s assume we have a project located at /home/me/my-project. It has 3 namespaces:

• MyFirstNs, located at src/MyFirstNs, and uses the PSR-0 norm
• MySecondNs, located at src/MySecondNs, and uses the PSR-4 norm
• ThirdPartyNs, located at vendor/third-party/src, and uses the PSR-4 norm

Defining this project and its autoload information is done like this:

(ede-php-autoload-project "My project"
                          :file "/home/me/my-project/main.php"
                          :class-autoloads '(:psr-0 (("MyFirstNs" . "src/MyFirstNs"))
                                             :psr-4 (("MySecondNs" . "src/MySecondNs")
                                                     ("ThirdPartyNs" . "vendor/third-party/src"))))

If you have a composer.json at the root of your project, its autoload information (and also the one in the composer dependencies) will be merged with the information you put in :class-autoloads.

If your composer.json contains all the autoload information, and you have nothing to add in :class-autoloads, you don’t have to define an EDE project by hand. It will be automatically created when you visit a file in your project.
