churn-php
is a package that helps you identify php files in your project that could be good candidates for refactoring.
It examines each PHP file in the path it is provided and:
- Checks how many commits it has.
- Calculates the cyclomatic complexity.
- Creates a score based on these two values.
The results are displayed in a table:
A file that changes a lot and has a high complexity might be a better candidate for refactoring than a file that doesn't change a lot and has a low complexity.
churn-php
only assists the developer to identify files for refactoring.
It's best to use the results in addition to your own judgment to decide which files you may want to refactor.
- PHP 7.1
- Composer 2.0
Download the last release of churn.phar
or install it with Phive:
phive install churn
You can also install churn-php
via Composer:
composer require bmitch/churn-php --dev
churn run <one or more paths to source code> ...
churn run src
churn run src tests
# the command name can be skipped if directoriesToScan is set in churn.yml
churn
You may add an optional churn.yml
file which can be used to configure churn-php.
The location of this file can be customized using the --configuration
option:
# Default: "churn.yml" or "churn.yml.dist"
churn run --configuration=config-dir/ <path>
churn run --configuration=my-config.yml <path>
A sample churn.yml
file looks like:
# The maximum number of files to display in the results table.
# Default: 10
filesToShow: 10
# The minimum score a file need to display in the results table.
# Disabled if null.
# Default: 0.1
minScoreToShow: 0
# The command returns an 1 exit code if the highest score is greater than the threshold.
# Disabled if null.
# Default: null
maxScoreThreshold: 0.9
# The number of parallel jobs to use when processing files.
# Default: 10
parallelJobs: 10
# How far back in the VCS history to count the number of commits to a file
# Can be a human readable date like 'One week ago' or a date like '2017-07-12'
# Default: '10 Years ago'
commitsSince: One year ago
# Files to ignore when processing. The full path to the file relative to the root of your project is required.

# Default: <empty>
hooks:
- Namespace\MyHook
- path/to/my-hook.php
# The version control system used for your project.
# Accepted values: fossil, git, mercurial, subversion, none

You can configure churn
to output the result in different formats. The available formats are:
csv
json
markdown
text
(default)
To use a different format use --format
option. Example command for json
:
churn run --format json
The hooks configuration allows you to customize churn
.
A user-defined hook must implement at least one Hook interface:
Hook interface | Corresponding event interface |
---|---|
AfterAnalysisHook | AfterAnalysis |
AfterFileAnalysisHook | AfterFileAnalysis |
BeforeAnalysisHook | BeforeAnalysis |
