:building_construction: A tool to quickly set up the base files of a PHP library project.
License: MIT License
Languages: PHP, Twig
A starter kit for quickly setting up a new PHP library package.
ramsey/php-library-starter-kit is a package that may be used to generate a basic PHP library project directory structure, complete with many of the starting files (i.e. README, LICENSE, GitHub issue templates, PHPUnit configuration, etc.) that are commonly found in PHP libraries. You may use the project directory that's created as a starting point for creating your own PHP libraries.
This project adheres to a code of conduct. By participating in this project and its community, you are expected to uphold this code.
composer create-project ramsey/php-library-starter-kit YOUR-PROJECT-NAME
Running this command will create a new repository containing the same files
and structure as this repository. Afterward, it will run the
Ramsey\Dev\LibraryStarterKit\Wizard::start()
method to set up the project, which will
walk you through a series of questions and make changes to files based on your
answers. When complete, it will remove the ./src/LibraryStarterKit
and ./tests/LibraryStarterKit
directories, leaving everything else in place with an initial commit.
When executing create-project
, if you exit the program while in the middle of
the question prompts, you might notice it creates a .starter-kit-answers
file
in the project directory. When you return later and run composer starter-kit
,
it will use this file to pre-fill any questions you've already answered. Once
finished, the starter kit removes this file.
You may also use an existing answers file to provide all your answers to the prompts, including skipping the question prompts. To do this, set an environment variable with the path to your answers file:
STARTER_KIT_ANSWERS_FILE=/path/to/starter-kit-answers.json
To skip the question prompts, make sure you include the skipPrompts
property
in the answers file, and set it to true
.
The answers file is a JSON object, consisting of all the public properties found
in Ramsey\Dev\LibraryStarterKit\Answers
.

I created this project starter kit for my own uses, and these are the common files, packages, and tools I use in my PHP libraries. If you like what you see, feel free to use it. If you like some of it but not all, fork it and customize it to fit your needs. I hope you find it helpful!
