Setting class definitions and using constants in property values about archetype HOT 6 CLOSED

Short answer is no.

The Default PhpParser printer "is not very suitable for refactoring code". So I extended it in PSR2PrettyPrinter and it is slightly better, but this is one of the unwanted behaviors.

Hi, thanks for question :)

The property method accepts either a primitive value, or an instance of a PhpParser Node instance. So we should be able to do something like this.

use PhpParser\BuilderFactory;
use PhpParser\Node\Scalar\MagicConst\Dir;
use PhpParser\Node\Scalar\String_;
  
$factory = new PhpParser\BuilderFactory();
$scriptsValueNode = $factory->concat(
    new Dir,
    new String_('/../dist/js/addon.js')
);  
  
LaravelFile::user()
  ->add()->protected()->property('scripts', $scriptsValueNode)
  ->preview()

In general I would go about it like this:

• put an example of what you would like to write in a file
• load it and review the AST using: LaravelFile::user()->ast()
• see what class name your example has. In your first example that would be PhpParser\Node\Expr\ClassConstFetch
• Use PhpParser\BuilderFactory to construct that node

Would love to see how you are using it when you're finished. Just a heds up, I have not looked into how PHP8 affects this package. Seems to work fine but it does not yet support constructor promotion etc. Maybe that is not to big of a problem.

Thanks for the reply! I'm back to trying to figure this out again and wondering how I might be able to pass a value like Fieldtypes\YourFieldtype:class into a class variable since it's not a string or array?

Ah, I think i just got it!

$fieldtypeClassValue = $factory->classConstFetch('Fieldtypes\KnightRider', 'class');

PHPFile::load('addons/rad-city/knight-writer/src/ServiceProvider.php')
                ->add()->protected()->property('scripts', $scriptsValue)
                ->add()->protected()->property('fieldtypes', $fieldtypeClassValue)
                ->save();

Which gave me...

class ServiceProvider extends AddonServiceProvider
{
    protected $fieldtypes = [Fieldtypes\EmptyLacroixCan::class];
    protected $scripts = [__DIR__ . '/../dist/js/addon.js'];
}

Is there any way to force some formatting? Like each value on a new line, and empty lines between classes?
