phpDocumentor/phpDocumentor

Features

• API Documentation Generators - Automatically generates searchable API references for classes, methods, and properties from PHP source code.
• API Reference Generation - Automatically generates searchable technical references for PHP classes and methods from source code and comments.
• Content Metadata Tagging - Uses structured tags to define specialized metadata such as parameter types and return values.
• Documentation Compilation - Compiles parsed source descriptors and links into final rendered documentation files based on templates.
• Documentation Templating Engines - Converts internal documentation descriptors into final HTML using a pluggable templating engine.
• Static Site Generators - Converts source code analysis and Markdown or ReStructuredText files into a static website.
• Documentation Artifacts - Transforms internal analysis results into structured documentation artifacts using templates.
• Class Diagrams - Creates visual representations of relationships between classes and interfaces based on source code analysis.
• AST-Based Diagram Generators - Produces class and code diagrams using PlantUML based on PHP source analysis.
• PHP Project Visualization - Generates class diagrams and architectural graphs using PlantUML to visualize relationships between interfaces and classes.
• API Documentation Generators - Analyzes PHP source code and DocBlocks to produce structured HTML API references.
• Documentation Generation - Extracts structured information from DocBlocks to produce summaries and metadata for the API reference.
• Documentation Descriptors - Transforms source code into structured descriptors to decouple analysis from final documentation rendering.
• PHP Code Analysis - Parses PHP files to create structured metadata, abstract syntax trees, and visual relationship diagrams of the codebase.
• Source Code Analysis Tools - Analyzes source code files to transform them into structured intermediate representations for processing.
• Source File Parsing - Converts source files into structured abstract syntax trees utilizing a performance cache.
• DocBlock Annotation Processing - Extracts specialized tags and namespaced annotations from source code to define metadata.
• Code Relationship Visualization - Produces visual representations of the codebase structure using PlantUML to visualize architectural relationships.
• Documentation Tools - Synchronizes technical documentation with code changes during continuous integration.
• Document Conversion - Transforms hand-written formatted text files into static pages that integrate with the API reference.
• Document Output Customization - Uses a templating engine to convert internal documentation data into custom HTML layouts.
• Dynamic Code Referencing - Embeds live information from the source code into documentation to ensure content remains synchronized with changes.
• Markdown to Rich Text Parsers - Parses Markdown syntax to render rich text, inline code, and hyperlinks within documentation descriptions.
• Documentation Build Configurations - Stores project settings in XML files to automate builds without repeating command-line arguments.
• Generation Configuration Managers - Defines documentation output and analysis rules in version-controlled XML files for consistent builds.
• Generator Extensibility Frameworks - Adds custom capabilities to the generator through external packages or custom service bundles.
• Documentation Automation - Integrates documentation generation into a continuous integration pipeline to keep technical manuals synchronized with code changes.
• Documentation Automation - Automates API documentation generation within continuous integration pipelines to keep docs synchronized with code.
• Parsed AST Caching - Caches processed metadata and abstract syntax trees to enable faster incremental builds.
• Multi-Pass Compiler Pipelines - Executes a series of discrete transformation steps on extracted source data to apply business rules.
• Relationship Graph Visualizers - Generates diagrams and graphs to visualize the relationships and structures within the source code.
• AST-Based Visualization - Analyzes abstract syntax trees to generate architectural graphs and UML diagrams.
• Documentation Compilation Passes - Runs specific business rules or transformations on extracted source data during the compilation process.
• Dependency Injection Containers - Uses a service container to manage tool extensions and inject runtime configuration into generators.
• Technical Reference Manuals - Creates custom architectural guides and hand-written documentation in ReStructuredText and Markdown to supplement automated API references.
• Versioned Documentation - Organizes output into distinct folders based on project version numbers to maintain separate documentation sets.
• Documentation Rendering - Renders custom guides written in ReStructuredText as static pages alongside API references.
