Requirements

User Installation

phpDox is shipping as a selfcontained executable phar archive. You can grab your copy from the releases section or directly here:

Installation is simple:

wget https://github.com/theseer/phpdox/releases/download/0.8.0/phpdox-0.8.0.phar
chmod +x phpdox-0.8.0.phar
sudo mv phpdox-0.8.0.phar /usr/bin/phpdox

You can now execute phpdox on the command line:

phpdox --version

If everything worked out, you should get an output like this:

phpDox 0.8.0 - Copyright (C) 2010 - 2015 by Arne Blankerts

Note: Starting with release 0.6.6 the pear package distribution is merely a wrapper for the selfcontained phar.

Note: Some Linux distributions ship PHP with ext/suhosin and disabled phar execution. To make use of phpDox in such an environment, you need to enable phar execution by adding phar to the executor white list: suhosin.executor.include.whitelist="phar"

Developer Installation

In case you want to go bleeding edge or hack on the source, you will have to clone this repository.

git clone git://github.com/theseer/phpdox.git
composer install

Usage Examples

You can run phpDox like this:

phpdox --help

As of version 0.4 phpDox requires an xml configuration file. In case a project you want to generate documentation for does not come with one, you can create it by calling

phpdox --skel > phpdox.xml.dist

Sample invocation to parse and generate output based on the default phpdox.xml configuration file
