Documentation & Reflection

Read documentation

You can easily read the documentation from any class or function.

Let's take for instance the following function:

<?php

// test.php

namespace DummyNamespace;

/**
 * This is some PHPDoc.
 *
 * Put anything here.
 *
 * @unknownMarkup
 *
 * @param int   $x
 * @param array $y
 *
 * @return \DateTime
 *
 * @author Théo FIDRY <theo.fidry@gmail.com>
 */
function display($x = 1, array $y = null)
{
}

The doc command easily show the documentation for the DummyNamespace\display() function:

You can also display the doc of PHP functions, example: doc array_map
