pre-php v0.1.1

pre-php

pre-php is some kind of a php compiler that will allow you to use C-style #ifdef and #ifndef directives. That's it.

pre-php will simply copy all of your source files to a build directory, and then 'compile' the php files in there. It will never touch your original files.

Install

npm install -g pre-php

How to use:

You will need to create a pphp.json config file at the root of your project:

{
    "defs": ["__TEST"],
    "ignoreDir": ["node_modules", "vendor"],
    "ignoreProcess": ["storage"],
    "buildPath:": "./build"
}

and run prephp from the the terminal on that folder.
There is also a watch function prephp -w that will watch for changes.
You can also do prephp -f for a fresh build (destroy everything in the build folder and start over)

config:

defs: An array of your defines.
ignoreDir: An array of ignored directories.
ignoreProcess: Unlike ignoreDir, this will copy the files but will not process the php files inside.
buildPath: Path where the build php files will be copied. (default: './build')

Syntax example

<?php

#ifdef __TEST
echo '__TEST is defined!';
#endif

#ifndef __TEST2
echo '__TEST2 is not defined!';
#endif

#ifdef __TEST3
echo '__TEST3 is defined!';
#else
echo '__TEST3 is not defined!';
#endif

#ifndef __TEST4
echo '__TEST4 is not defined!';
#else
echo '__TEST4 is defined!';
#endif

echo 'enjoy!';
