CLI. Tokenizer Functions

Введение

The tokenizer functions provide an interface to the PHP tokenizer embedded in the Zend Engine. Using these functions you may write your own PHP source analyzing or modification tools without having to deal with the language specification at the lexical level.

See also the appendix about tokens.

Требования

Эти функции всегда доступны.

Установка

Beginning with PHP 4.3.0 these functions are enabled by default. For older versions you have to configure and compile PHP with --enable-tokenizer. You can disable tokenizer support with --disable-tokenizer.

Версия PHP для Windows имеет встроенную поддержку данного расширения. Это означает, что для использования данных функций не требуется загрузка никаких дополнительных расширений.

Замечание: Builtin support for tokenizer is available with PHP 4.3.0.

Предопределенные константы

When the extension has either been compiled into PHP or dynamically loaded at runtime, the tokens listed in Прил. Q are defined as constants.

Примеры

Here is a simple example PHP scripts using the tokenizer that will read in a PHP file, strip all comments from the source and print the pure code only.

Пример 1. Strip comments with the tokenizer

<?php
/*
 * T_ML_COMMENT does not exist in PHP 5.
 * The following three lines define it in order to
 * preserve backwards compatibility.
 *
 * The next two lines define the PHP 5 only T_DOC_COMMENT,
 * which we will mask as T_ML_COMMENT for PHP 4.
 */
if (!defined('T_ML_COMMENT')) {
  
define('T_ML_COMMENT', T_COMMENT);
} else {
  
define('T_DOC_COMMENT', T_ML_COMMENT);
}

$source = file_get_contents('example.php');
$tokens = token_get_all($source);

foreach (
$tokens as $token) {
   if (
is_string($token)) {
      
// simple 1-character token
      
echo $token;
   } else {
      
// token array
      
list($id, $text) = $token;
 
       switch (
$id) {
           case
T_COMMENT:
           case
T_ML_COMMENT: // we've defined this
          
case T_DOC_COMMENT: // and this
               // no action on comments
              
break;

           default:
              
// anything else -> output "as is"
              
echo $text;
               break;
       }
   }
}
?>

The tokenizer functions are quite powerful. For example, you can retrieve all of the methods in a given class using an algorithm like:

for each token:
if token is T_FUNCTION then start buffer
if buffer is started then add the current string to the buffer
if token is ( stop buffer

And the great thing is that the class methods will have the right case, so it's a good way to get around the limitations with get_class_methods returning lowercase method names. Also since using a similar algorithm you can read the arguments of a function you can implement Reflections-like functionality into PHP4.

Finally you can use it as a simpler method of extracting Javadoc out of a class file to generate documentation. The util/MethodTable.php class in AMFPHP (http://www.amfphp.org) uses the tokenizer functions to create a method table with all of the arguments, a description, return type, etc. and from that method table it can generate ActionScript that matches the PHP, but it could also be fitted to generate JavaScript, documentation files, or basically anything you put your mind to. I can also see that this could be the base for a class -> WSDL file generator.
