Convert PHP5 code to PHP7 (scalar type hinted parameters, return types) by reading the PHPdoc blocks of your source file. For example, in PHP5 code if you had @param int $index, the function signature will be modified as public function myFunc(int $index) {
(Not in packagist yet) Clone/download this repository and install the dependencies using composer.
composer install
Usage:
php php5to7.php [OPTIONS] <file/directory>
--overwrite Instead of outputting the changed source, writes
the php7 changes into the file.
--backup For every file it modifies, copies the original
to filename.php.bak.
-h --help This help message.
<file/directory> The path to the individual file, or a directory
to process every php file recursively.
This should not be used for large projects, mission critical code, etc. This is currently an on-going experiment.
- No typehinting will be done on:
- Parameters that are not documented with PHPdoc blocks
- Parameters that are more than one type, e.g.
string|array - Parameters other than the basic scalars:
int,float,string, andbool - Code with scalar typehints may operate slower than code without them (might be negligible)
- Pull requests welcome
