Upgrading from PHP-Parser 1.x to 2.0
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
### PHP version requirements
|
|
|
|
PHP-Parser now requires PHP 5.4 or newer to run. It is however still possible to *parse* PHP 5.2 and
|
|
PHP 5.3 source code, while running on a newer version.
|
|
|
|
### Creating a parser instance
|
|
|
|
Parser instances should now be created through the `ParserFactory`. Old direct instantiation code
|
|
will not work, because the parser class was renamed.
|
|
|
|
Old:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use PhpParser\Parser, PhpParser\Lexer;
|
|
$parser = new Parser(new Lexer\Emulative);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
New:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use PhpParser\ParserFactory;
|
|
$parser = (new ParserFactory)->create(ParserFactory::PREFER_PHP7);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The first argument to `ParserFactory` determines how different PHP versions are handled. The
|
|
possible values are:
|
|
|
|
* `ParserFactory::PREFER_PHP7`: Try to parse code as PHP 7. If this fails, try to parse it as PHP 5.
|
|
* `ParserFactory::PREFER_PHP5`: Try to parse code as PHP 5. If this fails, try to parse it as PHP 7.
|
|
* `ParserFactory::ONLY_PHP7`: Parse code as PHP 7.
|
|
* `ParserFactory::ONLY_PHP5`: Parse code as PHP 5.
|
|
|
|
For most practical purposes the difference between `PREFER_PHP7` and `PREFER_PHP5` is mainly whether
|
|
a scalar type hint like `string` will be stored as `'string'` (PHP 7) or as `new Name('string')`
|
|
(PHP 5).
|
|
|
|
To use a custom lexer, pass it as the second argument to the `create()` method:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use PhpParser\ParserFactory;
|
|
$lexer = new MyLexer;
|
|
$parser = (new ParserFactory)->create(ParserFactory::PREFER_PHP7, $lexer);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Rename of the `PhpParser\Parser` class
|
|
|
|
`PhpParser\Parser` is now an interface, which is implemented by `Parser\Php5`, `Parser\Php7` and
|
|
`Parser\Multiple`. Parser tokens are now defined in `Parser\Tokens`. If you use the `ParserFactory`
|
|
described above to create your parser instance, these changes should have no further impact on you.
|
|
|
|
### Removal of legacy aliases
|
|
|
|
All legacy aliases for classes have been removed. This includes the old non-namespaced `PHPParser_`
|
|
classes, as well as the classes that had to be renamed for PHP 7 support.
|
|
|
|
### Deprecations
|
|
|
|
The `set()`, `setFirst()`, `append()` and `prepend()` methods of the `Node\Name` class have been
|
|
deprecated. Instead `Name::concat()` and `Name->slice()` should be used.
|
|
|
|
### Miscellaneous
|
|
|
|
* The `NodeTraverser` no longer clones nodes by default. If you want to restore the old behavior,
|
|
pass `true` to the constructor.
|
|
* The legacy node format has been removed. If you use custom nodes, they are now expected to
|
|
implement a `getSubNodeNames()` method.
|
|
* The default value for `Scalar` node constructors was removed. This means that something like
|
|
`new LNumber()` should be replaced by `new LNumber(0)`.
|
|
* String parts of encapsed strings are now represented using `Scalar\EncapsStringPart` nodes, while
|
|
previously raw strings were used. This affects the `parts` child of `Scalar\Encaps` and
|
|
`Expr\ShellExec`. |
