This library has been in use to generate the documentation at https://developer.wordpress.org. Unfortunately, a while ago, that processed failed due to new syntax used in WordPress’ codebase. The syntax, which failed in
nikic/phpdoc-parser@^1.0is resolved innikic/phpdoc-parser@^3.0with minimal patching here.Newer versions of the PHP parser require more work to update, while v4 of this library requires substantial change to the WordPress code.
This patch proposes making the minimal changes to
Reflectionon the old branch which allow WordPress to restart generating its documentation, and it makes it possible not only to parse the source code, but to run the process on newer versions of PHP (which due to the dependencies are currently locked at 7.2).
